[Proposal] Navy SEALs

[philnopatience]

Sounds like a great idea, just a few thoughts what about maps the SEALS are in the Navy as you know and i was wondoring, if this is appoved by the devs will there be Sea to land maps where blackhawks can extract Seals to an aircaraft carrier or bring them place to place also could there be F/A 18 Hornets to give close air support or have unlimited Artillery support sense you might have no respawn. I was looking at your list of weapons and thought maybe you guys could make more unique weapons such as M60, would love to see that ingame, here is a list of some guns that Seals use:
Handguns:
MK23 Mod 0 .45 cal SOCOM Offensive Handgun
M11 Sig Sauer P228 (9mm)
Assault Rifles:
M4A1 with SOPMOD Accessory Kit (5.56mm)
Sniper Rifles:
M14 Sniper Rifle (7.62mm)
MK11 Mod 0 Sniper Weapon System (7.62mm)
M82A1 Heavy Sniper Rifle (.50 cal)
Submachine Guns:
HK MP5 Submachine Gun (9mm)
Machine Guns:
M60E3 Machine Gun and MK43 Mod 0 (7.62mm)
M240 (7.62mm)
Combat Shotguns:
Benelli M4 Super 90 Shotgun
Grenade Launchers :
M203 Grenade Launcher (40mm)
Mortars :
M224 Mortar (60mm)
Anti-Tank Rockets :
M136 AT4 Light Anti-Tank Rocket

i found these at:Weapons & Demo | NavySEALs.com - Experience the SEAL Edge
I might just be getting ahead of myself but still like to help out

i love the idea, ive been dreaming about it too.

Maybe after 1.0, the mod is well estabilshed it can focus on other things, but i don't think we should be dragging away from what devs want to do right now with the mod.

anyway, good luck if this lifts off

I fully see and respect your point, I just don't believe that this project would in any way detract from the work of the devs, rather compliment it. I suppose the fact that I am using the SEALs will immediately conjure images of HALO jumps and a handful of men taking on an entire army with ease, but that's really not what I was going for. It's difficult to adequately portray one's mental image of a project to everyone accurately, but what I have in mind is light infantry engagements and maneuvering on a very micro scale driven by specific team objectives, not necessarily Hollywood-esque special forces.

I hope this clarifies it somewhat, but at the risk of sounding redundant, we'll see.

MK14 MOD0! (aka the M14 EBR) I hate you mess with your design plan anymore, but EBR is just plain awesome.
On a more serious note, after thinking, Seals should probably not get M4s for the most part. The main complaint of SF operators is that the 5.56 does a bad job actually putting people down. I would suggest an M4 variant that fires the 6.8 SPC round (there is a Barrett, there is a Rock River Arms and I think another). Basically, you'd just need to reskin and modify the code to make the M4 into a carbine that fires one of the intermediary rounds (ie. between, not including, 5.56 and 7.62)

There is a problem I can see with such a faction. In reality the SEAL's are an extremely well trained fighting force of men. Thus, their weapon handling skills should be at a very high standard. If you went ahead and coded their weapons to be more accurate than normal then whoever picks them up will be able to shoot like a SEAL. When an untrained insurgent picks up a SEAL's weapon he'll be able to shoot like one. What I suggest is removing the pickup ability altogether if it is at all possible.

I think that this faction would be perfect to fight the Democratic Republic of Congo Military. Also, they could use the littlebirds for helicopters instead of Blackhawks. Maybe they could operate in "Skirmish" sized maps.

These two make a winning combination.

Another US faction? SF?
Oh, come on.

[[R-CON]ReadMenace]

If you want custom kit geometries done, I'm in, not necessarily because I like the idea, but because it will be fun to model them.

I'd agree only on 2 occasions.

1. Let them really be Special forces. No building involved.

2. Bring back the P226.

if you got rid of all vehicles (excluding jeeps)

then that would be good
