    USMC and Airforce

    is it just me, or are the USMC and Air Force 2 seperate factions...cause in bf2 they're USMC, but the guys in the plane are AirForce, as depicted in the pic below...or am i just stupid?

    I think its just for effect. its not like pilots are a new kit that get special abilities.

        Not to mention that they use F-18s which are the Navy's and take off in F-22s from aircraft carriers. It's just for fun really. It shouldn't be USMC. It should just be Americans.

          I wasnt saying that the pilot IS a new kit, i was pointing out that there is no pilot kit and that its just for looks. guess i should've phrased my reply better.

            Yea, I always figured an F-18 should take off from the carrier, not the F-35Bs. Also, does anyone know if USAF shows up on the Helo pilots, or does it stay USMC?

              Why? You do know they are replacing all their aircraft with the F35 and its 3 versions, which is why its called the Joint Strike Fighter, JSF, for the army, marines and navy.

              F35B STOL was made specifically for the USMC and its carriers.

                It seems more practical that the F-18s should take off from the carrier, and the F-35B should be land-based to emphasize their multifaceted capabilities of lifting off in even the most inhospitable terrains.

                  This game is already so militarily inaccurate it doesn't matter anymore. Chinese with AK47s, random a$$ unlocks, where the hell did MEC get AK101s?! Insurgents without AK47s....lazyness and inaccurate. Same thing in BF1942.

                    Insurgents dont always use AKs..... and this game is pretty accurate, so i do hope you're not basing those judgements off of what gun a guy is carrying.

                        Pretty accurate? Last time I checked people didn't jump off buildings that are no higher than two stories with full combat gear and just happened to 'have' a spare parachute that opens fully in less than a second.

                        Saying this game is militarily accurate is like saying Galaga is a flight sim.

                          F/A-18s are flown by both the Navy and Marines. F-35 will have a carrier based version, which is what is shown in the game, the VTOL type. The others will be STOL.

                            It's just a game. There is no such thing as MEC. In reality the AK101 is a russian weapon. The chinese army have their own version of AK47, and most of the middle east countries are using the original soviet made AK47. The F18 is used by the navy, and the F15 is used by the airforce only.

                              i got an idea, lets be retarded and whine about pointless stuff in the game. Wait that tree over there doesnt grow in the middle east, what was DICE thinking?????
                              Plus the AK-47 is the most widely sold weapon in the world, watch lord of war, even the US use AK-47
