Skaven 0 Posted April 10, 2003 Great work Suchey and Earl, the model is very nice, the textures are top notch and the M16A2 is very well done. I hope you guys release the final version soon, the Teaser really shows the quality of the future pack, Outstanding Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nyles 11 Posted April 10, 2003 The m16 performs very well. I love it. Probably known already, but I noticed that the scope is a little off center, as the shots mostly hit a little too high compared to where the sight aims. Also, the color of the model seems a little green'ish, rather than black. Except for these details the weapon is the best m16 I have seen so far in OFP. Is there a chance, you could join forces with BAS, so they would manage to use that m16 sound for their weapons, while you could help in developing the troops for any upcoming Marines Pack?

theavonlady 2 Posted April 10, 2003 Well I got tired waiting for a demo mission so I made one myself - sort of. You can download Ambush USMC from the MOM section at The FAQ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
punishment 1 Posted April 10, 2003 when you throw a grenade the m16 turns green when it is pointing toward the ground. And did you realy need to put a whole new section for just one unit. Great work though waiting for final pack Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure it's a FileFront hiccup. They had a few yesterday. Otherwise, they are normally quite reliable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jinef 2 Posted April 11, 2003 you can turn off rifle tracers which is more realistic, and the MGs still have them so that's what i do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PFC_Mike 2 Posted April 11, 2003 Please tell me you'll make a few more units like this. Also, how about adding a marine with a shotgun in the next beta? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
9mm 0 Posted April 12, 2003 Hello. Heh, another idea on those coded vests. Why not include a 3rd pbo in the upcomming pack with a single cpp file. This would introduce another subcategory in the unit selection menu, let's say "USMC MP". Those units would stick to default BIS armour levels, while soldiers placed under USMC would feature incresed armour levels, just like BAS units. Woops, i guess i should post thisn under addons: discussion, but what the hell... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peanut 0 Posted April 12, 2003 I found a bug: When you watch at the goggles of one marine you can see what is going on behind it. I think this happens, because the goggles are a part of the helmet but they are a little see-through Sounds a little strange, but I hope you get what I'm talking about Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cloney 0 Posted April 12, 2003 Well the only thing that makes those vests any better than the old vests are the ceramic inserts and some soldiers and marines don't wear them because they are very heavy. I just think of it like they aren't wearing ceramic inserts. Miles Teg or Hellfish might be able to tell you more about that though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
