Most sniper rifles use 7.62 rounds(.308, 30-06, 7.62x54R, etc). You can debate the same thing with 9x19mm and .45 pistol/handguns. The 5.56x45 has excellent armor piercing ability, but the tissue damage isn't so great. The 7.62mm rounds as used in old battle rifles(M1 Garand,30-06;M14,.308) can effectively turn whatever they hit into pulp and soft lead tips could tear off limbs(Although, that would be inhumane).<span id='postcolor'> i was talking about ingame

im sure i remember seeing more than that...ah well, good to see youve got a browning 30 cal coming

very nice, only a tiny grumble is that so many BAR's have been made, the one thing i havent seen made yet is a decent 1919A4 (browning 30 cal), any plans to make one of these?

Anyone remember where this was? <span id='postcolor'> any answer for this? is it possible to double the size of an existing island without too much fuss?<span id='postcolor'> What Ebud is talking about (as I understand it) is doubling the resolution. That means making twice as many "readings per lenght unit". If you do that to a existing map it would make the sides of the map half the size and therefore the area of the map a quarter size of the original. But i think you could take an original map and reduce the resolution to half the original  - then you would get a map four times as big. Actually i don't think it would require any more from the computer compared to the original map, since there aren't more data.<span id='postcolor'> ok then...how about an answer to both, is it possible to double/quadruple the size of an already existing island and is it possible to double the resolution of an existing map [edit: you may have already answered this, but i know nothing about making islands, so youll have to make it simple for me )

that looks fantastic, any chance you could consider making a BMD-3M: basically a BMD-3 with the BMP-3's weapon systems (100mm cannon, 30mm autocannon, coaxial machinegun and rocket launcher)

i did notice one thing, you cant take command of the other squads, you end up just being a member of the squad with an ai being the leader, was this intentional?

I think the HCB, is the NSV, from looking around at a couple of different sites i see the HCB with this pic: http://kalashnikov.guns.ru/posts/99.html And from another site i see the NSV with the same pic: http://world.guns.ru/machine/mg02-e.htm and differences (if it is the NSV), the Kord fires slower, uses the same caliber, but is 1.5-2x more accurate, it is the NSV's replacement

take your pick, we have Deltas/Rangers/Kiowas/MH-60's all in the last stages of production, after that we have an AH-1W and then a UH-1N, not to mention the seals that come after the deltas/rangers

its a special ops version of the standard chinook, it has more fuel, has better armaments and better avionics not really much of a point apart from to serve special ops missions, pretty much the same reason we are doing the MH-60's, we will also be doing an AH-1W which although being a lot different to the ingame AH-1F is still a cobra, but with nearly all helicopters different versions serve different eras/forces/purposes

if they do, is there any chance you could change this? giving them normal crew wont matter much as its incredibly easyfor mission makers to add them in, but i dont want to A: download other addons i dont neccessarily want or B: have error messages when starting up ofp
