Hellfire-rty- 0 Posted October 4, 2007 How the heck do I get the green flare from the arms dealer, I have tried everything short of killing the lot of them and every time I talk the dealer no flares come up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
william1 0 Posted October 4, 2007 the flares are not under weapons , thay are under "slots" tab (i think it's called slots ) there are two tabs in the dialog square where the weapons are shown , on the top, weapons and slots. btw , there is no green flare as such , you have to buy a grenade green for the granade launcher.

Hellfire-rty- 0 Posted October 4, 2007 got it, under magazines, for some reason it was not showing until I actually had the cursor over it. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CameronMcDonald 146 Posted October 4, 2007 You don't even need a flare. Just get yourself a GP25/74 or keep your M4/203. Then, after you see the bloke, waltz back to the base you started at (DON'T QUIT) and grab a green GP25 flare or six from the Ural there. Or, alternatively, take the Ural to the meeting point. I got a bug where Karl still complained about not having a flare in the next mission at the start, although each team member had at least one, but you don't even need a flare (you can get one from a crate) - just a grenade launcher.

Seitan 8 Posted October 9, 2007 Is there something special in green flares compared to other colors? What does it matter? It is in the mission brief that you need green flare. It's their call signal for the trucks to come in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stegman 3 Posted November 7, 2007 Is there something special in green flares compared to other colors? Yeah, 'greenness' is the official terminology. Yellow, red and white flares don't have any. They have instead 'yellowness', 'redness' and 'whiteness' respectively. This man made chemical gives the flare a sort of Green glow to it when fired… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
