SWIMING and encumbrance

Recommended Posts

I just want to point out some fact about swiming. While I was playing Joint Operation I found out that you can go or fall in water without a problem. It's even affect to weapon accuracy and stuff. You just got a breath bar. It's stupid that a soldier cannot swim or at least float.

The last thing is encumbrance. The weight you are carrying should affect some aspect of the game, like running speed, getting up... and drowing. A recce should move faster than a machinegunner.

Load bearing is a important fact of a soldier's life.

You can swim with the CoC divers, but they seem to be largely overlooked in terms of addons using it. Swimming wasn't a major factor in OFP anyway, partly down to the way they actually made water for one, and because it's more of a ground/air combat thing. Anyway, I hope they do add realistic water and water related effects and the like in OFP 2, they'd be shooting themselves in the foot if they didn't really.

In fact, both of these suggestions have been brought up many, many times, as a little use of the search button would have told you.
