So far it's been really well recieved... hope you guys like it.
Good job on the mod. I know its still in beta testing ,but I just think it needs more work on it. If you stand up next to another person they look like midgets and everything is way 2 sensitive. The Ural truck tips over making a turn and its alot faster. Jets are alot harder 2 fly and are 2 sensitive like all the other vehciles
Overall it's pretty damn cool, I just hate the iron sights on the SA-80 they are so cheap. The Challenger seems a little overpowered I smoke a T72 in one shot but then again maybe he was at say 1/2 health already.

Overall nice job.
