I agree - the elbows have far to much of a open curve

GRRRR, this is annoying, BAS finnaly speaks yet, doesn't tell us about what this is or what it encompases. Other than the Merc thing, they told us that.

i dont think so dude ... if they could convert them to OFP then what would stop them converting the models to OFP ...

i dont think they can convert anything from VBS1 to OFP full stop.

=:/

they could be custom animations ... it is a painfull job ... but not hard if you have the tools...

NOTHING in this thread has ANYTHING to do with VBS except your comments.

All the animations are wilcos, hunters or modified versions of the two (by me). Nothing is riped/ported/borrowed from VBS, none of the models have ANY VBS content.

Let the speculation continue

@DreDay

AK-74's CAN be mounted with sound suppressors, see here and here.

hhmmm true... maybe me pointing out the elbow issue made it look wiered when pointed out ... i hope they fix it ... cozz it could make the quality of the addon a little less than perfect .... "but then again nothing is perfect is it"

ahhhhh stop putting pics up and put a DL link up    

Stop trolling the OFP forums and finish those HEMMTTs!

Just kidding    Take your time, they look well worth the wait.

Back to the subject (what we know of it) what have we seen so far?  New units, a new tank, and custom animations...  Additions only or are there any updates to existing Tonal stuff?  I wait (semi) patiently...

Is that tank in the picture an MTLB(?)

[Madus_Maximus 0]

'tis a BTR-T. Looks like a retexture of PSC's.

[ThePara 0]

BTR-T, that's what I was looking for.

One thing's for sure. From looking at that last picture these guy's are the new bad-asses of OFP. Wouldn't want to be on the wrong side of one of those guys.

Theres always something... You guys are just trashing right I mean take a good look at the square arms of regular OPF soldiers and compare those squary, fat, huge members with the ones on that screeny, i see big improvement on the models .

Completely agree, this news has been out for about a day now and people are already complaining. They look great to me...certainly one million times better than anything -I- could do

i thought russia didnt export ak74s only the 10* series? I also heard it is very difficuly to get 74 ammo, so why would the mercs have them? I think itd be cool if they made blackwater guys but those are definatly not blackwater. Maybe if they had some diff guns it would be better i dunno. And really why not just release a colored picture? making ppl guess at shit is pointless.

Companies like Executive Outcomes and Sandline always manage to find their away around little problems like that. Also BSC/Triple Canopy/Dynacorps don't run they type of operations that EO/Sandline do and BAS probaby want to encorperate those sorts of operations into their mod. BSC and all those companies do corporate security and such. EO is famous for their covert operations during the Angolan war and others, where they played a direct combative role to help win the war.

heheheh the pic has changed now dude ... trust me the elbows were in a bad shape and it was enough to make it look outta place on a character ...

and yes the models are great compared to the orig OFP ones i am not dissing the model or textures itself ... just the way the model was weighted at the joints on the elbow...

dont frett i am not dissing it at all

alot of ppl get constructive crit, mixed up with dissing ...

[ruff 102]

convinced these are mercs

but which 1?

most western mercs still use m4 sopmods or hk weapons only australian based PMC i saw armed with aksu

maybe Sandline Inc. or remnants of Excutive Outcomes? i think only executive outcomes got tanks and its own mini airforce 2 migs and 4 to 4 mi17 gunships etc.
