Adding a tab that allows you to select your nationality would make the game feel more realistic. You could be American, yet the soldier next to you could be British. Implement this with the AI as well(they already have face,voice and glasses).On the gear, there is a spot for a flag...have the flag of the country you select be on your uniform.(NATO countries only)

Not really sure about this. It should probably only be for the NATO and you could only pick NATO member countries.
Comment Actions
Although, some people could feel left out that way, but, still, having the flags of all nations would be kind of unrealistic. I'm really not sure...
Comment Actions
true, but if you look at the helo pilots, they have american flags...why not change it so that all NATO nations can be helo pilots. same goes for all other units..they have a place for a flag, yet they dont have one. it is a NATO operation, not an American one.

That's true. But, I meant what if someone who's not from a NATO member country plays Arma?
Comment Actions
it happens all the time.(take other military shooters for instance)they force you to play as a person from a specific country.if this idea is taken into consideration, at least you get to choose.
Comment Actions
Well, now that I think about it, it could be useful. But, a little idea: make the mission maker have the ability to choose a nationality.
Comment Actions
This would be interesting. If they would allow you to import your own flag. ALlowing clans to use they're own symbols instad of 10 different flags with 100 people feeling left alone bc they're flag is not included.

#update. Think its best if they only include Nato and opfor force flags. (and independed) Then allow players to make they're own and share it with the community.

Good propose, and show that in players profile in MP (when you select player, where show ICQ, E-Mail, Name, Squad etc.)
I wanna select Russian or Ukrainian, so +1
Dont forget about mod makers, they doing a lot of national army's for Arma, so its good reason to add nationality or country tag in profile
Comment Actions
Well the email name enc. Is configured in Squad.XML but its a pain in the ass. No one wants to spend time figuring that out. Setting it up from the game itself would be better.
Comment Actions
the being able to import your own flag is a very good idea. Your playing online and seeing peoples clan patch.
Comment Actions
Exactly. Maybey only add Opfor and Blufor flags and maybey some vehicle tags to preffent people from feeling left out due to the fact theyre flag isnt in. As for importation you can import what ever you want. Even extreemly awsome custom flags of either your nation or clan.
