Special Forces....not so Special for the MEC, Spets etc

[Beowulf(AUS)]

Hi All,
Just a quick rant....must say I love Special Forces, play it more than Vanilla BF.

My point is that the Seals and the SAS have some great weapons, with them being specially made for this game (read Scar L @ H).
But I find it puzzling that the MEC and Russian special forces miss out, relying on standard locked or tier 1 unlocks.
My question is:-
Why couldnt the devs added a couple of specialty weapons for these forces?
Something like:-http://world.guns.ru/assault/as66-e.htm
or http://world.guns.ru/assault/as68-e.htm

Would be cool........thats it my .2 cents worth

Because developers lack "out of the box" thinking. They are morons who dont think like us consumers think.

Lets look at a few "real authentic" weapons of the chinese, MEC and Russian Forces.

Chinese Army Weapons

Chang Feng Submachine Gun (Chinese version of the P90) http://world.guns.ru/smg/smg74-e.htm

JS 9mm Submachien Gun (chinese version of the Euroforce FAMAS) http://world.guns.ru/smg/smg75-e.htm


Russian Army Weapons

VSSK Vychlop Silenced Sniper Rifle (the russian version of the USA 50cal Sniper Rifle) http://world.guns.ru/sniper/sn72-e.htm

Agram 2000 (this is a russian version of the MP5) http://world.guns.ru/smg/smg40-e.htm

AEK-919 K "Kashtan" (A very popular spetznas weapon) http://world.guns.ru/smg/smg56-e.htm

AS Silenced Assault Rifle (the russian spetznas version of the G36) http://www.redsoldier.com/index.asp?...n=Custom&ID=46

AK-102 (russian version of the M16) http://www.redsoldier.com/index.asp?...n=Custom&ID=54


MEC Army Weapons (mostly based on israeli, russian and chinese design, also can include korean and other designs)

Steyr TMP (The MEC version of the USA Uzi-like gun, MEC also uses Uzi which is israeli) http://world.guns.ru/smg/smg11-e.htm

What else the game missed big on?

Steyr AUG Para (this is the SAS most widely carried weapon, yet doesnt appear in BF2) http://world.guns.ru/smg/smg12-e.htm

PP-90M1 (ironically they give this to US soldiers when its russian made and not available to Spetznas, even though its one of their most widely carried weapons) http://world.guns.ru/smg/smg59-e.htm

The total 1-sidedness is one of the reasons I never bought SF.

Was anyone else mislead with Special Forces?

All the news i read about SF mentioend you could use grappling hooks and Zip Lines on the original BF2, reinventing the original game and making it all the better. But, i wasnt able to use any?

Show me anything that you read that stated that you could use Grapple and Zipline 'WITH' the orginal BF:2 game.

However, you can use flash and your new special guns on regular BF:2 and the other players that did not buy the BF:SF can't use.

Would be freaking sweet to grapple on top of buildings or zipline through Karkand though WHile other players that have vanilla can't use em. Talk about advantages

Thats because BF2 is just blah blah bum america arent america so much better than the rest fo the world... well not really.. vietnam, US army gets beaten by a smaller, not as well trained army. Just because the other armies aren't American doesnt meant they should put up with crap weapons.
