If I understand this correctly, they had YOU pinned already.
Thats too bad.

Does it matter if they did or not? Either way they can easily get an headshot.

create a zoom breathing animations or somthing. that way when u scope in it takes more skill.

One suggestion I have heard WAY too often in this thread is taking out the scopes. They are already unrealistic as it, taking them all the way out would just be dumb. As far as I've been informed, every 03 MOS Marine is issued some sort of alternate sight on their rifle. I do not know about the other MOSes, but the Infantrymen all get sights. The reason why the Marines swapped over to the M16A4 is so that this kind of customization is possible with all the rails added to it. This means the Rifleman, Corpsman (not sure about them as I don't thik they are allowed to have weapons but I'll bet they manage to get em anyway), L-AT, and possibly more of them should ALL have scopes. Try and prove me wrong cause I'd like to know why the Marines swapped to the A4 if this wasn't the reason.

Anyway, you CANNOT take the scopes out for realism sake in any shape or form. They are a part of the Infantryman's life in the Marines and the Canadian military. Scopes stay if you are to follow the book(s).

give that man a can of coke!

And all I hear about is people whining that they're getting sniped at 600m+ by riflemen.......I would like them to come on a server with me and try take me down in three shots at a distance higher than 400m. That said, in urban engagements (i.e Iraq) lots of troops are issued reflex sights like aimpoints and eotechs.

I don't know... thats quite the statement if its being directed at Rico11b

I think the rifles probably are as accurate as they are in-game but I'm skeptical in that it would be so easy to produce that accuracy in a live-fire fight when the target is shooting back at you. Perhaps thats another thing.. project reality can never truly simulate actual combat stress, hunger, fear, exhaustion, etc...

I'd be REAL interested in seeing what Spearhead the animator would have for input on this. Seriously it would be AWESOME to have this in there, but could you do it just for grunts and not the marksmen\snipers? Could you lessen its effects whilst prone? Those are important issues.

Is this comment intended for me, or the guy that started the thread? You didn't quote anyone so I'm assuming it for the thread starter.
