hellfish6 7 Posted June 9, 2003 No offense, but Earl and Suchey are coming out with their MARPAT Marines pretty soon and they look really good. And BAS will have their Marine helos. Why reinvent the wheel? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coporal_punishment 0 Posted June 9, 2003 Apart from soon to be released BAS marine helicopters and Suchey and Earl infantry we won't have marine Aircraft i.e. the FA18 and AV8, we also won't have marine vehicles such as the LAV-25 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eviscerator 0 Posted June 9, 2003 Theres also nothing to say that BAS wont ever make marine ground vehicles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MLF 0 Posted June 9, 2003 Theres also nothing to say that BAS wont ever make marine ground vehicles. But it would not be any time soon though in a time scale against these guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eviscerator 0 Posted June 9, 2003 Theres also nothing to say that BAS wont ever make marine ground vehicles. But it would not be any time soon though in a time scale against these guys. And a team thats only just started, is looking for every type of addon maker (modeller/texturer etc) and has 13 projects to do, is likely to be faster?

Shashman 0 Posted June 9, 2003 Eviscerator : BAS aren't the only addon making group out there...If they want to have a shot at making Marine addons well that can only be good...Better than just being satisfied with looking at the pictures of addons which are still in the making/drawing board.Are you afraid they end up looking better than yours?

Heh, we arent actually making any, or have plans to make any, my point was on the 'time scale', these guys are taking on an awful lot at once, it would probably be better for them to start one project, finish it, and then as their team grows start on multiple projects.

ruff 102 Posted June 9, 2003 i think this guy is a real marine helli pilot or a crew member i think he is id his the same guy i read in the ch53 mod addons complete discussion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ruff 102 Posted June 9, 2003 i think everytime bas and an unknown addon maker or makers are making the same addon... they seem to get discouraged due to every1s expectation that bas will make a better 1 all i have to say  to this new mod is go for it!!!!!!! dont get discouraged the more range of units we have the better and i believe the more addons of the same kind getting created is good since all addon makers will strive for the best Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eviscerator 0 Posted June 9, 2003 *Bangs his head on the desk* BAS are not making Marine ground vehicles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waffendennis 0 Posted June 9, 2003 Man can we please have a topic with out any Flame wars and if yuo want i can help you with things make a island ( its my job to make islands ) so just say it and it will be done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
302_Dragon 0 Posted June 9, 2003 Well the purpose of this project is to try and bring many addon makers together so that all our peas are in one pod, so to speak...I don't want to redo anything...why re-invent the wheel was a good analogy. I have emailed Suchey to ask him if he would like to join this little venture I am trying to start. I was going to email Colonel Klink and ask him but I know he is very busy with BAS projects and the Falklands projects. I just want to bring any addon maker who is building USMC addons under one roof. This way we can have quality addons within one Mod. Two heads are better then one ;) It just seems there are all these USMC projects out there but they keep getting pushed back...maybe if there were a larger group of addon makers it would be easier to keep things rolling without someone getting burnt out doing everything. Personelly I am suprised Colonel klink hasn't gone nuts with all the projects Ive seen on his plate with BAS and the Falklands...LOL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
