You have to assume for truthfully force recon are the Marines Verson of army Rangers, and it turns out that the Army has its own Version of ODSTs that is the Called the UNSC Army Airborne. So you have to figure that they would have force recon / rangers units to go in areas where regulars can't cut it and ODSTs and Airborne is just to expensive to send in. (But it is wierd cause truthfully the Ranger would be at a Higher level then airborne. So its possible the Rangers/ Green Berets got adapted into Army airborne and the army adapted it's own version of force recon *using American names over other Nato armies for I'm more familiar then them and I rather not put down a long list of the same style of units.*) But I'll look further into it. this area of lore I love to research in (Though of course I noticed that cause they focused so much on the spartan soldiers, that regular military in the operating and composition got really left on the wayside compared to other space marine series like Warhammer 40k and Starship troopers. It's really been sense reach and on that the regular military has been becoming more fleshed out) ---------- Post added at 13:39 ---------- Previous post was at 13:28 ---------- Here you go. There is a article on force recon on here http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/UNSC_Special_Forces

And I stand corrected on what it was based on.

as i said, personnel preference. I'm not Against the M73. I think what the Movie crew was doing was taking a MA5 and converting it into a belt fed saw, Like a few Arms manufactures have done with the m4.

I won't Lie, I was Always been partial to the M319-D6 SAW design over the M73 for M319 looks more Haloish and was designed for a Fan movie during the Covie War over the M73 which was designed for a war WAY after the games M319-D6 SAW http://darbaras.deviantart.com/art/The-Squad-Automatic-Weapon-167532877 M73 http://halofanon.wikia.com/wiki/M73_machine_gun I was Also thinking of if you guys took the M247 and Attached A Bipod to it, It could easily Fill the Role the 240B plays in a Platoon formation http://www.halopedia.org/M247_General_Purpose_Machine_Gun without mount http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Mf9G4CjLDCE/UGfQE_XZWLI/AAAAAAAABns/qO0xXrPiXRY/s1600/M247+GPMG.jpg

Ah I get it Thought you meant the SAW sights for some reason. I can see that

Is this for the saw verson? Cause we found the mrco better suited for that But the sight for m249s on the mods are what I used in the army work well too. They really good at showing what kind of spread you'll have up to 800m and gives you a 4x zoom

If the vacuum suit is rated with a prussured crush depth, then it can be used underwater With the aid of water jets and flippers and such. The Spartans had conducted underwater operations in their suits and conducted underwater ops during their training, so it is easily possible ODSTs have at least received this level of trianing and may have adaptations for their armor and body suits to be able to conduct underwater operations. But sense thier is no example of what underwater gear would look like except that they used regular scuba gear and tanks during training. I say you can always do what they did in Star Wars and adapt the armor. http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/c__/images/4/42/Scuba_concept.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20140505102628&path-prefix=clone

Which basically screams at the laziness that Bungie was becoming at the end of its contract with MS. Cause the ODSTs wear Vacuumed sealed Ballistic body suits that offer actual small arm protection with armor over it. Kinda in the same format the CSAT fatigues are the armor for the CSAT nation and they are so tanky, no matter where you shoot them in vanilla (not talking about the face of course) http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/ODST_battle_armor

I love them. But SN would burn 343 on the stake if he had his choice. Why I said "may not want to hear it" I actually pretty positive about 343i. but I'll share those opinions for the HW forums. Don't want to get yelled at again.

May not want to hear it but halo 5 does have a smartscope for the AR. Could possibly adapt it's Look or something http://1ftoyj6rgt945pvd02r4op11.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Smart-scope.png (2739 kB) That's what my clan have been doing for our saw gunners. And we got rid of the smart scope for them for balance. 32 round AR with smartscope it beast enough. 60 is to op for arma haha. It's turned into a fun experience . :)

Did someone say Innie boarding action? And Marine retrieveal ---------- Post added at 13:21 ---------- Previous post was at 13:12 ---------- I know my clan is going to change the ODST camo on the fatigues to be that of the British sf on the campaign but 20 shades darker. And I can't remember if I heard right but the army will have a update scorpion pattern Mission editors are holding off on mission making for we have agm where we like it for the modern combat and they rather not have to change the vaules to compensate for the 1 shotness of the UNSC fatigues (vest and helmet are great. Don't change them. Just make the fatigues 2 shot like the vanilla uniforms) and are to lazy to do the scripting the to do the quick fix and plus, the vanilla fatigues don't really work. (Though it doesn't bother me much)

Haha. looks like Sony is trying its hand on some ODST action lol

Actually, The UNSC Army colors used in this MOD are ones that TEI design team designed themselves and the Marines are the colors the marines used on Halo:CEA All camos used in halo reach http://www.halopedia.org/images/c/c7/UNSC_Army_variations.png Marine camo from halo:CEA http://www.gamersbliss.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/johnson.jpg That being said, I explain here Why the UNSC Marines only come in Olive Green and Drab Gray and the UNSC Army has dozens if not Hundreds of Different Uniform Fatigues http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?177321-The-Eridanus-Insurrection-An-Arma-3-Total-Modication&p=2893276&viewfull=1#post2893276

Yep the Falcon in Multiplayer on reach had no cannon on the nose

Hey guys, I discovered your Spartan 2's for you in this time period xD The comic http://online.fliphtml5.com/lymr/adiu/files/large/4.jpg Arma 3 http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=405850138 lol But we discovered a quick fix for the UNSC fatigues and the 1 shot problem, we decided to do vanilla uniforms for they can take 2 hits and actually don't look that bad Desert army http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=405840130 Woodland army http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=405840150 http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=405847982 Marines http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=405840166 ODSTs http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=405855663 http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=405855761 http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=405855794 just ideas to help keep you all alive and look semi cool

So I was testing the durability of the pelican. Watching it take .50 cal And rocket fire left and right. Feeling like a bad ass.... the I spawned a Tigeris and and next I know It. I'm falling out of the sky and my AI copilot ditches me to go splat on the ground. So the name of the game. If your going against light infantry. The Pelican is the best friend you could have. But you have hostile AAA. May the Odin open the gates of Valhalla for you. For your coming through in a ball of glory. LOVE IT ---------- Post added at 12:56 ---------- Previous post was at 12:51 ---------- Anyone know the script that the people use in invade and annex to magnetize tanks the the Huron. That would go perfect for the pelican if you could center it to the magnets in the back

Blarg. I want to play so bad. Need to master the Pelican and make them dance to my tune. But alas I'm stuck at work ;-;

A 100 shots. Idk. only if you couldn't hit them. It's actually very easy to kill in halo if your decent at it. Half a mag at most of you get the drop on a guy. Even less if they just stand there

My clan is likely the damage now. You got the right balance going for the moment. We can take a few hits and adapt to an ambush. Still lose a few men to head shots, 40mm or lucky hits. But its war. You will lose men in a ambush. but the fix made it where it is possible to survive over a GJ patrol getting jumped by vietcon being completely wasted in the bush. we give you our support. But we are already see it on fb and some forums. This mod is slowly becoming what Dayz did for Arma 2. I'm seeing people saying they are buying arma just for this mod and half a day later we see them again not realizing that arma is not halo, cod, or bf. That you really do need to pay attention. Lol. Things are getting interesting haha

Landing is easy xD the landing gear is so tough you can go 200KPH to 0 without damaging the pelican (Though stopping at that speed kills the whole crew. But works fine around 100kph) its epic *Update Edit* So I been mistaken with the damage on this update, In the VA you can 1 shot all the training dummies in there, but I went to the editor and decided to do test with live targets and I have to say..... I'm happy. All I have to say. 3 - 6 hit deaths on UNSC personnel depending on what armor they wear and where you hit. Thumbs up, our mission Editors will be pleased Also something I noticed, the scopes of the Gauss looks like they have thermals, but the actual weapons does not but instead uses NVGs, Was that intentional? For I been using the zoom out thermals to spot targets and then zoom in to actually shoot. Also. LOVING the new pelican controls

http://242ns.enjin.com/index.php?/portal/ We are working on few ops and hopefully the hotfix helps with the 1 shotiness. If it does, we should have something soon and I'll post the info for you guys *****Urgent Note****** We are a modern combat milsim unit. We are doing halo things for we are fans of halo and are doing these for fun. We do have several operations planned and they will be done on fun night which is usually friday. If your hoping to join for a mainstay organized halo experience. I'm sorry, but we are not that group. As I said, we are doing this for fun

I noticed this too. The fuel tank gets pegged to quickly and it drains super quick. I know BI solved this with the Huran where they added a reserve tank that prevents the tank from leaking past 15% Giving the bird a chance to RTB for repairs.

Understood. I do enjoy that you really can see a difference in weapons tech in 500 years. Once you get the armor to match 500 years of advancement. Things will be rocking. I know the whole thing really is getting our mission editors kinda going nuts. We can fix it with agm. But we finally got agm to work well with modern weapons and nobody wants to reconfigure it for a few games of tango Hunt. So it kinda was put on hold. But we hope when it gets balanced. We can get the show going xD Edit* when you say already do, do you mean the nato fatigues or csat themselves. For the stats on the virtual ammo box equals it to the nato/ civilian clothes

So I noticed how the fatigues have armor on it themselves. You guys think of adding armor value to the fatigues themselves like the CSAT fatigues. This may help spread out the damage and help slow down the 1 shot actions going on.

3 shots to the chest and your dead, the special plate carrier in vanilla can take six. but the helmet takes 3 shots though, beast
