And lol...It's not waterbombs...

*pictures a pilot throwing water filled balloons out of the window*

The way it works is that most of the fixed wing aircraft used in this role are amphibious...What they do is that they find a lake, drop down, open a scoop and fly low enough for the scoop to scoop up water.The aircraft then flies to where the fire is and a hatch is opened and the water drops out.

Don't they like send teams down there to cut the forest so that the fire won't spread?

Yes that is something else they do. They also actually start new fires to block the "advance" of a forest fire.If there is no forest to burn, there's no fire so they start a sort of barrier of burnt forest

I can't see any reason why that wouldn't be fun. It must be done for OFP 2. (Not BIS, but modders)

Being dropped in the middle of a forest fire, trying to extinguish it with your team = very fun!

And very low FPS and very ugly fire!

OK Crunchy Frog...

You're against the idea, so if ever it's made, don't download it and stop trying to bring it down everytime someone proposes something positive

I have to agree with crunchy frog, is not too bring you down or anything like that, I think it could be a good idea with alot alot and again alot of changes in the game and new revolutionary addons.

You have to think that OFP is a war simulation game. There for, the 99.9% of players are people that likes to shoot things around or comand a squad(at list or platoon and be strategicall agains the machine or another human player.

I can't see many people playing with fire fighters for long, they'll probably open them on the editor to check them out and end up puting a sniper as the player and shooting a bunch of fire figters to see if they have new animations or they shout while they dying.

Good idea, but like some one ellse said, a multi-band radio that actually worcks would be more interesting.

Sorry mate, I'm not trying to bring you down or anything, I'm sure you would enjoy playing a mod like that, but that's my opinion. If you wanna see something like that, you better organice something yourselfe.

Good luck Shasman.

Lol...well nevermind...It was simply a suggestion.

And of course OFP is a war simulation, but there are addons and missions out there that don't have much to do with warfare...

It may be a sugestion, but I'm not saying that it shouldn't be made.

If something like that would be good for you, surely it would be good for someone ellse aswell. And if you really like the idea, why don't you fight to get it made.

I allready gived you my personal opinion, it is, after all, my personal opinion.

So get some skills if you don't have them allready( modelling, drop comand, etc) and make it true.

I may be wrong in my own personal opinion, and it end up being the best thing sense sliced bred.

Don't let people bring you down because of theyr own personal opinions, like I said, after all, they only are personal opinions.

Edit Lol, I said "personal opinion" a few times in a short espace of time, I think I repeated my selfe a bit, well, that's my personal opinion
