jonstyle 49 Posted April 29, 2004 I have one complaint about these units; Why oh why doesnt every unit have a helmet on? I dont know how many of you have been in the army, but cirtainly, officers, medics and grenadiers do have to carry their helmets on their head as everyone else(when in combat or in the field) !! The first version of these soldiers, v1.2 had removable helmets, you could type something in the units init field. Why was this option removed? I think it would have been great if there was two versions of every soldier in there, one with helmet and one without. I do love these units, though, I just converted the whole Retaliation campaign wth them. Great job! PS.Sucheys Marine and Naval pack also had many units without helmets, are'nt helmets "in" anymore?? Every infantryman has to wear it! Thoughts?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kuba 0 Posted April 29, 2004 They are just great. Al least same quility as BAS Rangers, even better. I want use there as default Russian soldiers(via Pappy Super config, look There for details), and i have few questions about that. First, how can i hide russian Flag on officer beret? It looks little stupid - cold war era officer with modern flag(in 1985 campaing)... Same question about the star, the best possiblity woud be beret without any sings, so it might be modern and cwc russian soldier at once. Last question, is there any chance to change beret colour to black? I know that in Russia blue berets have special forces, and common infantry officer looks little stupid with blue beret. Thats all, great work again! Sorry for gramatic mistakes... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jotte 0 Posted April 29, 2004 Jonstyle, have you acctually seen in action pics of Russian forces in the Caucasus? Very often they don't wear helmets. Especially the VDV forces seem to use wool watchcaps/balaklavas much more then helmets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonstyle 49 Posted April 29, 2004 Still i would prefer that they wear helmets... I'm in the army right now, and I guess the "look equal" and "look good" army mentality has rubbed into my skull. These non-helmet wearing soldiers seem unproffesional to me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry for gramatic mistakes... why do you want to use them as default soldiers? i would agree with you if you say to use them instead of BIS spetznaz, but instead of regular soldiers? VDV isn't regular armymen. they are closer to specops... BTW, it is my download was corrupted. d\led it agian with no errors Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bonko the sane 2 Posted April 29, 2004 very good units! that sniper camo is really excellent, some units have camo face option and also a place camouflage on back (leaves) option oh...and that rpg16 AT missile is mad, u get to kill a M1A1 (or at least turn it upside down) with 1 missile Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I dont know how many of you have been in the army, but cirtainly, officers, medics and grenadiers do have to carry their helmets on their head as everyone else(when in combat or in the field) !! Well, as far as I recall, recon units never wear helmets, because they are an extra burden. Same goes for paratroops, because they are supposed to be able to move around quickly. Sure they have the option to wear helmets, but they normally don't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sure they have the option to wear helmets, but they normally don't. Umm... no. All airborne troops wear helmets when they jump. They're all supposed to wear helmets in combat too. Look at pics of Iraq and Afghanistan right now - all troops, airborne/marine/whatever are wearing helmets in combat. Even SF guys wear helmets in combat. Nobody particularly likes wearing them until they get shot at. I know I hated wearing mine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonstyle 49 Posted April 29, 2004 Same goes for paratroops, because they are supposed to be able to move around quickly. Sure they have the option to wear helmets, but they normally don't. Arent all soldiers supposed to be moving around quickly? And how would you know they "normally" dont, were you a Russian paratrooper? If you wear a helmet depends on the situation, I would surely feel safer with it on my head if I were in the shit.... Thinking that this is a game and all, helmetless soldiers are great for cutscenes, though, it just really irritates me to se a squad(infantry, that is, spec-ops is another deal), where just someone wears a helmet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hellfish6 7 Posted April 29, 2004 I wince when I think of paratroopers dropping to earth without helmets. Ouch. Still, though, I haven't DLed this pack yet so I can't pass any kind of judgement. And as a missionmaker, it is still easy to make a mission where you give everyone a helmet. Going into combat, I'd expect everyone to look uniform (so, essentially, I could use one soldier model for all paratroopers and realistically get away with it) but once on the ground and in the fighting, it's not unthinkable to have each soldier look different. Thus, I think I'll like the variety. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Acro 0 Posted April 29, 2004 Good pack. I like the realistic textures that these units have. I hope someone makes a mission using this pack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
