i think we want to leave a few surprises in there, AFAIK there hasnt been screenshots of about 3-4 of the helicopters, nearly all of the new weapons(ingame), and probably quite a few of the american soldiers, im not sure if this was intentional but it will leave an element of surprise when downloading the pack i suppose

LMFAO really big as in file size and not dimensions, whats the point in putting pictures of that size if your not gonna do a decent size like 800x600 whoever works on the site needs to learn how to use psp and RESIZE the pictures as no point in having a pic size of like 150X100 and being 600k

hey team, i learned some information i think not very many people know about, unless they were in vietnam. the grunts, through trial and error, found that putting 27 rounds in the guns clip, it greatly reduced the jamming problem. one of the problems being that the clip had a loader spring thingy that wasnt strong enough to push the rounds into the chamber when the ammo in the clip got lower.  :'(

(edit) DOH! forgot to mention the gun  ;D  M16A1

I think you might mean 18-19 rounds in the old 20 round M16 mags, the weak spring problem was fixed with the 30 round 'banana' mags.

The best reference to this is most likely http://www.rjsmith.com/war_myth.html#magazine
The author also has a thing about the word 'clip'.  

I have heard rumours about current M16 users still only filling their 30 round mags with 28-29, but I know not how true this is.

Anyway hope this clears up any flame backs.

aaahhh... thats cool.. added 7 rounds more and still reduced the jamming ;D

At around Vietnam time the M16A1's were using 20 rounds clip.. not the banana 30

Uhh, is the difference between a clip and a magazine that a magazine is external whilst a clip is internal (and a stripper is a little holder for bullets that go in WWI-era bolt actions). In my opinon, bolt actions rock! Who needs a dang M16, when you can have yourselves a good ol' springfield and a bottle of bourban. Yee-haw! :gunman: (sorry there were no redneck smilies)

[FatJoe]

LOL.. I hear ya there.. Bolt Action rifles rocks. I would like to see a IS version of the Mosin Nagant in NP2 but..hmm.. maybe later in some another version.. maybe.. perhaps ;D

the mag issue.
yes soldiers are told that putting 1 or 2 less rounds may help with weapon stopage but it is up to the soldier him self to load his mag.some listen to the warnings and some dont.i never had a issue with the mag thing as long as the weapon was clean and well oiled.

30 round mags were in vietnam for both the AKs and M16s.
200 round belts were normaly broken into 50round belts with the number 2 gunner carrying half the gunners ammo.boxs mags on M60s were not used in the j and thats why the ammo was 50 round belts.to stop the losse of ammo,eg getting caught on trees and weeds and vines and all that shit.

nowadays you can carry a 200 round belt in a cloth mag and its all good.you dont have that ammo tin sound thats so noisy
it not funny.
