I'll be getting some better pictures soon.

those look real nice, but I think they just look too bright.. I would prefer the old ones to that.

i was under the impression that MC will only be givin to units beging deployed to iraq or afghanistan and UCP will continue to be the "offical" cams for the US army until a proper replacement is found. correct me if im wrong though.

ACU is still the official camo and will be for some time. The Army has way to much invested in ACU to actually change it Army wide, plus the Army still has contracts with companies making ACU products. It would cost so much to get out of those contracts, that it would be detrimental to tax payers. So until those contracts are up, ACUs are not going away. Like Rhodesy said, MC is only being issued to troops going to Afghanistan, but I think units going to Iraq will still use ACUs.

Plus the only people I see wearing MC is Airsoft Rangers.

I vote no MC.

[Black1ron 10]

I vote 3-color and BDU's! Anyone else with me? (I hate UCP-D, MC, and 6-color "choco-chip"

[AnimalMother92 10]

I think the reason the article only mentioned troops going to Afghanistan is because they're all leaving Iraq anyways. And MC isn't being issued until this summer, so I don't think ACU is going away any time soon ;)

I knew that the 173rd BCT was deploying with MC, but I was surprised that they made all US troops deploying to Afghanistan with MC.

I am all for a new working Camouflage, but I wish the Army did what the Marines did, two camouflages, one for desert (two/three tone based of DCUs) and one for woodland (three tone based off BDUs/no black). There is never a one solution fits all scheme, but I do understand the Army's reasoning, becuase it makes logistics a hell of a lot easier.

The only reason they are bright is because of the ArmA2 lighting. That's about as close to the real ACU pattern as you can get in A2.

I too would love to see a multicam reskin?

It's not going to happen.

I loled!

[AnimalMother92 10]

Didn't a guy on the Armaholic forums reskin these in MC?

I don't know, probably. But honestly, these are so outdated it's not even funny. If I really wanted to do a multicam project, I would get new models, instead of just retexturing. I'm surprised people still use these. Personally, I prefer my later release (2008) over these guys.

You could ask a mod to close this thread and direct people to the 2008 units?

[suhsjake 1]

Redirect and Lock?

Sorry Bink didn't mean to be rude, I think I meant the 2008 units, any chance of an MC reskin...

Nice pic and link. Did not know that somebody was reskin the units. Daveygary1979 did an very nice job, be cool if Bink gave the ok for the releas of them. As for the out date ways go im still liking the 2009 units, thee 2008 are very nice too love the back packs, makes it feel for an 101 long missions types.

I saw this already on the other replacement packs to the same happens there and the same classes are not replaced so or i do somthing wrong "then it is just odd that i have it also with the other replacements or you are all forgetting to replace those classes.

On the other hand i like the 2009 units a lot so it would be nice that all are replaced ;-)

These are older units, Bink's newer ones are in the Army 2008 thread.

[splatsh 10]

How to make all Arma 2 (USMC) soldiers be replaced with Binks 09 US Army soldiers, is there no replace files?

Yes there is, download this and place it into the same mod folder as the US army guys.

Keep in mind, this replacement and addon is very old, and there may be problems with it.

[splatsh 10]

Oh, thanks you, I have missed that one.

Thank you for a fast answer =)

Is it possible to create a replacements for the Razor Team in Campaign with this ACUs? The Green ones sucks >_<

[Fox '09 14]

would be cool. These units are kind of old and buggy though, if anything replace them with the glowing clothes 2008 guys.. or maybe bink has something else in mind.

Those are two totally different camo patterns. The US Marines in the campaign are using Woodland Marpat. Binks US Army units are using ACU...

And as far as I know, there is no way to replace Razor Team.
