roguetrooper 2 Posted February 17, 2011 Why do backpacks and machineguns exclude each other? You should be able to wear both at once. In RL you can wear a backback and the same time hold a machinegun in your hands. For a backback it shouldn't matter if it is a M16 in your hands or a M249. The limitation should be the movement speed or the stamina instead. Concerning backpacks... it would be awesome if the pre-backpack-time-soldiers (Russians etc) could wear backpacks, too (and displaying them). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
metalcraze 290 Posted February 17, 2011 Install ACE mod: - it's used on many multiplayer servers. - you can carry backpacks at all times, incl. when carrying an MG, unless you already carry something on the back (like an AT launcher or a radio) - both russians and USMC can carry any backpack.

Beagle 684 Posted February 20, 2011 Does it allow you to have a rocket launcher and sniper rifle at the same time?This is no engien limitation but a Mission limitation...more and more mission maker want their mission to be played in a realistic manner and that exlude the current "exploit" of MG-Sniper-AT gunners from Rambo's "School of victory through superior one man army".

MissionCreep 12 Posted February 21, 2011 This is no engien limitation but a Mission limitation...more and more mission maker want their mission to be played in a realistic manner and that exlude the current "exploit" of MG-Sniper-AT gunners from Rambo's "School of victory through superior one man army". You mean you can't be a MG-Sniper-AT-AA-Medic-Engineer-Pilot-Field-Hospital-Brain-Surgeon? Bummer ... One "Arma-legal" thing I like to do to increase firepower is to replace the default handgun with a Å korpion vz. 61 or a mini-Uzi which are classified as sidearms in Arma 2.
