M240 Humvee?

[Conman51]

I remember seeing in a dev blog a long time ago a humvee with an M240. It was on display with the Mk19 Humvee and the new up armored Humvee, I have not seen it in game though! I would like to see a few of these scattered around as it adds more variety to the boring old 50 cal humvee.

ye the "us_jep_hmmwv_uparmored_alt", the GPMG HMMWV is located on a few maps, although looks like mainly the infantry layers of most maps and some game modes that aren't played to often etc. This is our current repo build so it may not be quite in line with v1.1 but should be pretty close:

Aww. Well i know its a little late now. but can we try to get some of these added onto commonly played standard layer maps before the next patch?

Would this be usable with the rcon spawner?

It would be great to see most of the old humvees being replaced with the different uparmored versions. Just a mild suggestion outside of the suggestion forums.

only on those relevant layers

I'll have a look around and see where else they can be included

[Death!]

That would be cool. I also suggested a while ago a MG nest with a 7.62 machinegun, but people disliked the idea on the suggestions forum being even pretty rude.

well I can't excuse people being rude, but I doubt that'll be implemented simply because I think it would be rather alot of work to set it all up and make space on the HUD to request it for such small gain.

You could place it with the right button on the HMG option like "HMG / MG" pretty much as it is with the Foxhole/sandbags now. But, yeah, that would be a lot of work specially because most factions use different machinegun types (MG3, PKP, PKM, FN MAG, M60 and so on).

Foxhole/Sandbags + MG kit?

No, I meant a MG nest with a FN MAG/M240/M60/MG3/PKM/PKP on it. But your idea is also cool.

MG nest really is pointless.

Because you can get a machinegunnner kit without having to shovel for half a minute.
And it(usually) has a scope.

Yep, but the thread was pre-1.0. Anyway, you can be a rifleman and man that.

Well, let's get back to OP's topic. :v

what about in insurgency? in fallujah in the STD version is good because they have alot of apcs and that's give some opportunity to insurgents because they got .50 and in infantry layer put back the old .50s, that can be fit for some other map layers.

[Daxt2]

This would be kick ***.

[Konoko]

Since Fallujah doesn't have an alternative insurgency layer perhaps there could be one with fewer APCs and 8 GPMG Humvees - and have a middleground between standard and infantry. And if it was successful do the same for other maps?

They would get pwned by .50cal technicals.

So have fewer techys and more civilian cars?

Then they would get owned by civicar+rpg drive-by.

I'm sure there is a balance somewhere. Imagine:

US forces with
1 logi truck
1 APC
10 M240 humvees
so on a full 100p server there could be 1 mechanised squad, 5 squads with 2 humvees each and 2 people left over (probably snipers...)

insurgents have
1 gary
2 technicals
1 non-respawning technical
5 civi cars
motorbikes
and maybe fewer RPGs

and so a good US team might find it easier to seal off the cache before attacking, without the overkill of automatic grenade launchers, but it would need good coordination; this would reward the teamwork that marks PR apart from other games.
