I would vote yes, but that wouldn't be sticking to the original, now would it. ;)

The OICW got cancelled until design problems could be fixed and got split into the XM8 Assault Rifle and the XM25 Assault weapon/Grenade Launcher. No weapon systems in developed countries is 45 years old, and certiantly wouldn't be at the height of technology.

i am aware but sevrel items in the DX unvirse are out of tune with our timeline (as in such canceling might not have happened in the DX universe) Besides it looks far far far far far far... better then DX AR

But as has been repeated over and over again, the objective of the HDTP is to make everything look the same, only better. If we replace a weapon with another, similar weapon, it will no longer be the same, and that is bad, mmkay?

Your choice of weapon doesn't make any sense. Not one single military is planning on using the thing. If you want to put in futuristic weapons you should probably have something like the FN SCAR or the XCR and you should probably get rid of the 5.56mm and 7.62mm in favor of the 6.8mm SPC considering the most recent SOCOM trial concluded that it has better stopping power and ballistics then any of the older calibers. And that they plan on adopting it in their next generation rifles and carbines. Besides...adding weapons not in the game is against the spirit of the mod.

I'm sorry, I shouldn't have expected you to be smarter than the average code compiler. My mistake.

Would a code compiler produce so many syntax errors by itself?

I had a feeling from the badly spelt title that this post would be dire.

Jonas, I would give you the power to ban people. Helping make the forums a better place to live in.

It's me who really should never have the power to ban someone... or, rather, be given free reign.
