M72 LAW the should put it!

[Eagle101]

Anyone for a LAW? seriously and an Mi24Hind for the NVA not hueys! this is in no way bashing the game, i bought it and love it. to be honest is somewhat slightly brings back the BFV feel but not fully.

i feel many things have been redacted from the original vietnam title. i know for 10GBP pounds that is what you get but i fell putting in a LAW would be great than just an RPG, as well as including a chopper for the NVA instead of giving them a huey. (also i want a cobra like i Operation Flaming Dart!!!!)

but all this aside, i love the game for 9.99GBP!

Re: M72 LAW the should put it!

Assault has the LAW though. Or am I thinking of a different weapon?

You also have to remember the original Vietnam was a game by itself and was designed as a Battlefield game, not a Bad Company game.

What heli would they give the NVA?

Re: M72 LAW the should put it!

The NVA had no helicopters in those days, so they don't have them in 'Nam. Helicopters were a relatively new thing in war. At least they can "steal" a Huey.

I wouldn't mind adding in the LAW, though. Maybe make it have less drop and a little less power than the RPG to balance it out?

@Crunch: The assault has the M79 thumper grenade launcher. That's the precursor to the M203 when they figured that it would be better to carry both instead of a grenade launcher + a pistol.

Well, until DICE nerfed the holy living **** out of it. They don't know how to half-ass anything.

A: This part of your game is OP.
Dice: THEN **** IT, TURN THAT **** INTO A GODDAMN WATER PISTOL OF PISS!

They're like little kids. Instead of being reasonable and balancing things, they take things way too far and make powerful classes useless while making moderately useful things totally dominant.

No Russian gunships please, but yes the LAW would make a great addition.

I would rather have that they spend their time on new toys, instead of just reskinning the old ones.

Re: M72 LAW the should put it!

all reasonable posts, i was referring to the hind that was available to the NVA int he map Operation Flaming Dart from BFV. I know BFV was a full game on its own, i just think a few more things should be added, but all in all as i said the game is pretty good in my books.

Anyways enjoyed reading your thoughts guys

I got my M7x's mixed up . Thanks Expletive for even providing visual aid.

Who knows, maybe they will add more weapons later, since they are all unlocked for everyone anyway. Probably not though. Its just a DLC and I dont think it ever happened where a developer expanded their DLCs.

Vietnam is just a small expansion and there's little point to add a reskinned RPG7 when 75% of the american team is using AK, RPK and PPSH.

Yes, the LAW (light anti-tank weapon) is glaringly absent from the game.

And the above comment is correct - the NVA didn't have helicopters, although there were some rare sightings of Hueys that had NVA markings. Probably captured.

One of the most obvious mistakes in the game is that T54 didn't have automated upguns for the commander. The mini-turret for the M48 is accurate.

They did that intentionally for balance reasons. I think they mentioned it somewhere on their blog.

lol.

But yea, still don't think the NVA should have choppers. Also, the game is much more fun if you use the respective weapons per side you are on, adds some variety and gives you a reason to use other weapons. I just don't understand why they couldn't just make you choose weapons per side.
