And that's pseudo-Russian faction number... what, 4 now?

[QUOTE=Volf;48725988]And that's pseudo-Russian faction number... what, 4 now?[/QUOTE] I don't know. I couldn't think of anything else. Should I change it?

It's all up to you man. I don't know why everyone wants to be Russia anyway. Russia's a horrible, shitty place to be a human being.

[QUOTE=Volf;48726019]It's all up to you man. I don't know why everyone wants to be Russia anyway. Russia's a horrible, shitty place to be a human being.[/QUOTE] I did. Its now a Czech group. I don't want to be Cliché or anything.

[QUOTE=cooperevans07;48726002]I don't know. I couldn't think of anything else. Should I change it?[/QUOTE] No. Make whatever faction you want to make. If you really want to be those guys, then go ahead and be those guys.

Like I said man, up to you. Welcome to the thread either way. I'm sure someone will be along to harass your faction shortly. XD

[QUOTE=FloaterTWO;48726032]No. Make whatever faction you want to make. If you really want to be those guys, then go ahead and be those guys.[/QUOTE] Now that I think of it, a Czech faction would be strategically better, seeing as most other factions are located in Europe and Africa.

Now, before you continue, I think I ought to say this in public. I read your PM. To tell you the truth, i'm not buying it. You bugged the ever loving fuck out of my friends just so you can get your hands on their models, many of which couldn't keep up anymore and blocked you, or vented to me about it. They've all told me the same thing, you spammed them messages on their profile, and with invites, all cause you want models you probably don't even know what you're going to do with. I don't know who or what it was that led you here, but it seems to me that you just want in just so you can get all our shit that you desperately want so much. That shit will not fly here. I am not the only one who's thinking this way, and I can list many people who feel the same way about you as I do. What i'm trying to say is this: If you're going to stick around in this thread and actually contribute, then I apologize for the inconvenience. If you're just here to be a model grubber, don't waste your time here.

I didn't think I did. And I really want to contribute, and this thread seems interesting. So, I am truly sorry if I annoyed anyone. If you want to know any more, PM me or add on Steam. Cheers.

[editline]20th September 2015[/editline] How do all you guys get your custom models, by the way? Some of them look really cool.

Most people either make their models themselves or ask someone else politely to do it for them. Reskinning existing models is probably the easiest starting point, though.

I am also trying to start modelling, so, lets hope that goes well.

Could try asking FT, he's usually pretty good about helping people out with stuff like that as long as they're not pushy assholes.

-not you phoenix, you're cool-

For one, all your vehicles are WAY TOO GOD DAMN CLOSE TOGETHER. One well placed RPG or IED or going to nerf at least 3 of those trucks. There's also no armed defense in the lines ANYWHERE. There's not a single Humvee, MRAP, or even a jeep with guns on it, so if someone attacks that whole convoy is just going to be toasted. Go watch some videos of US convoys in Iraq or Afghanistan for how spacing should look. Typically you'd want a gun truck every 2 to 3 vehicles at most. I honestly don't think there'd be more than 10 damn trucks in a row coming down that narrow-and-perfect-for-an-ambush road. All it's going to take is one barricade and that whole convoy is going to be stranded because they aren't going to be able to back out of there. The sky looks bleh too. The lighting is also bland, use the sky/fog/light editors. Look at this image I did a few years ago of a convoy: [t]http://img08.deviantart.net/cd70/i/2015/109/a/b/gmod___winter_convoy_by_jvanover-d6xw07y.jpg[/t] That's proper spacing, both for the land and air vehicles. Excuse the watermark, someone was trying to use this as a loading image on his shitey DarkDM server.

Oh god, I posted at a bad time didn't I?

You're gunna wanna space out your posts a bit. It's really hard to follow consecutive posts, and if you're attacking somebody, and they start making a response post and then you post another scene, they're gunna have wasted their time and start anew. I like to think of it as time to allow the other armies, player controlled or not, to respond in accordance. Even if invading a country, the government of that country needs time to respond, so to conclude, I just recommend spacing out your posts. Welcome to the thread! (Stay outa Florida punk. ❤️)

Can i be added to the OP? I plan on being very active on this thread. And can anyone here reskin? All you guys have cool custom models, and I have to use regular ones. I would just like a quick reskin of a few models uniforms, to add custom camo and a custom emblem on the sleeve. Cheers.
