Looking good indeed. Good to see something being created that can potentially be used for three different factions

Guys I have big worries about this though:
the closest counterpart is the TOW
That is guided
More Powerful
Can be used in a long distance missile support role

This isn't guided
Can't take out MBTs or heavier CFVs unless the driver and gunner are idiots
The optic will only go so far, its not a very powerful set of optics

BTW scout meeting today, and I was playing Zombie Master as a stress releiver.

Got to play a fun map as the ZM and destroyed the humans with hulks!

asymmetrical balance would be good

Howitzer · 2009-03-19, 02:14

amen to that

Aye, it'll just get used differently in more ambush like situations I imagine. Personally I reckon it'd be better as a FH2 style pickup kit that needs to be deployed+setup time ala TOW and stuff, at least maybe for some maps.

Good work on the model though, really coming together now.

this isnt vanilla bf2. the coalition and the insurgents/taliban/chechens are WILDLY differnt when it comes to equipment. thats the point. the coalition gets all the cool high tech stuff, the insurgents get old crappy stuff. having a recoilless rifle just makes things even more varied.

Ok, imported the front sight from a previous try, for the launcher and the two carry handles on the front
Also wored on optimizing the optic, turns out the part that looks like the current Susat copy the Russians are using now(the rubber eyepiece with the strap) was 890 tris!!!!!! There were so many random polygons around the strap area and the rubber part. Ill post pics when I get home, but I think you'll like the result I have right now

The 1P29 is a copy of the SUIT not the SUSAT.

Congrats on fixing the rubber!
