No jungle camo skins for NATO (Pacific) vehicles?

Recommended Posts

Bummer.  Am I missing something?  NATO and NATO (Pacific) vehicle skins are identical.  The sand-colored vehicles are quite visible in the jungle.  Perhaps NATO didn't have time to develop jungle camo in the story??

Pretty normal for unexpected conflicts

Yep. But I wonder why BI bothered to include NATO (Pacific) vehicles at all if they are identical to the regular NATO vehicles.  Perhaps such skins will be added in the future?

The crew use Pacific equipment.

But they need any kind of green pattern soon.

Well...the devs did make this post about it on twitter. And then there was this post on reddit. So while it's an acknowledged issue, it's also something that's not considered a priority at the moment.

 

Basically it's going to be quite some time before...or rather if, we get proper camo for BLUFOR vehicles.

I actually quite ashamed they're not even at least flat green like the LSV's. NATO has a surplus of Green Camo regardless, as most nations are located in green geography. So to not have a US green version of the NATO vehicles is a bit off, even with historical context, it's 2035. The flash-point in the Armaverse South China Sea had been a thing for quite some time, so they'd surely have enough time to paint their vehicles for the pending conflict.

Add to this that the currebnt colour sheme of most NATOS vehicles is closer to WHITE then Tan or Coyote. You could slap UN on its Side and it would fit perfectly. If this is not a priority I dont understand the meaning of urgent. Back in 1994 we used to repaint all combat vehicles for the winter, even when it was just a for an excercise.

 

I call this lazy, yes simply lazy.

 

Currently the "tan" vehicles stick out on Tanoa from a mile away just standing behind trees.
