Absolutely loving the mobility of the WPMC. Thoughts on the faction so far?

[bw]

Re: PMCs and F-16s; Years ago I worked for a PMC in Afghanistan on a U.S. Government contract (we were basically manpower integrated into an existing U.S. gov't agency). We had access to everything that our military folks had over there. Artillery, rotary, and fixed wing. Once, we had CAS from a B1-B at 40K feet. I never heard or saw the plane, but I saw the side of a mountain come off, courtesy of a 2000lb bomb.

You can put the remote c4 on the back of techies like the bed or near the back window and they will stick

[UEemperor]

Huge gripe in the form of question: Why the hell does the rifleman get 530259326092623409 different kits, but the medic doesnt? GIVE MEDICS SOME COOL SHIT TOO!

[BigSneed]

I kinda wish the M113 Mobile Spawn Vehicle would have been represented as an M113 Command Post variant to give it some visual distinction from a normal M113 APC version. Gameplay-wise it makes no difference one way or the other but I think it would have been a nice touch.

[evanh]

Lost a game as WPMCs defending on invasion the other night 7-0 tickets. probably the best game of squad I've ever played

[TheBgBeav]

A video going over each rifles statistics would be interesting.

[AP-sabot]

4:20 HI-Power is also available for WPMC

[crosseightyeight]

One thing I never see in these videos is information on their FOB structures. WPMC has standard tech structures and fortifications, but for weapon emplacements they get grenade launchers alongside the standard 50 cal M2. They have a bunker version and unprotected version.

[BeefJerky_]

They could honestly make a manpad class. Where you get 1 or 2 of whatever manpad is in that nation

[LoftyAssertions]

The new scoreboard is Really really hope it helps new players understand what actually matters in this game


The timeline too!! Wow, I think this'll help them SO much

[Nathan-Roman]

hoping for an eastern PMC faction one day

[epiccanadianman]

POV COD AW Vets when they heard or read, “Manticore”:

“NO NO NO NO, CORMACK NO! NO, **PTSD FLASHBACKS**

[brydro]

i love it when i fully mod the upper and lower receivers on my AK

[casrexyt]

I have to disagree with you about Helis, they’re not op… they’re only as good as the pilot who flies them and let’s be real the average player is not zero or meatplow… I also see them get killed from AA and Tows/Atgms or even Btr’s etc. on almost every match I play. My record heli kill was around 1200-1600 with an LAV. I personally think the loach cas could use a little buff and pls bring back the huey gunship and if they bring manpads into the game, they also need to add flares.

[jdb]

Did a bunch of time in the M1117 Armored Security Vehicle, .50 and a 40mm in th turret - very confidence inspiring, very mobile, add on armor package upgrades... However, very limited visibility. Super fun to drive, great overland, great HP to weight.

[pavelmorozov]

"wormpool" is for "magpul", "simon offense" is "daniel defense" and "pushco" is for "zenitco".

[Beebeebeeboo]

Okay, but you can basically 1-shot the loach with an IFV, and every vehicle with armor has fun shooting at helicopters.

It's a cool idea for modern AA, but i think that is going to push pilots further out of their role.

[luger]

I only wish more of their assets weren’t reskins of existing content. The AK-101, MP5A3, M320, and M14 are really cool.

[samcoz]

awesome update love this game, cant wait to see your eye in the sky videos with the pmcs!
