GreenAsJade Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 Look closely at the guy on the right. What's he holding? Watch the guy in the middle as he runs off. He's holding the same thing GaJ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketman Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 I've seen the same thing and it looks rather funny. Same thing with MG-squads at times. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YankeeDog Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 Thats an elite Mimetruppen. Not much attack firepower, but very valuable on the defense, as they could quickly create bunkers out of invisible walls. Big problem with the Mimetruppen was that they had a very hard time walking against the wind. That, and for some reason, they were on the receiving end of an inordinately high number of friendly fire incidents. ... Seriously, I think this happens because BFC only has the resources to do a limited number of animations, so there's not a specific animation for the guy carrying the mortar tube and/or plate. So it uses the stock movement animation for a guy carrying a rifle, even though he doesn't have one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex J. Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 I frequently see these "mortar mimes" loading invisible rounds, sometimes several feet away from the mortar. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
