    there is a scope on the lmg, however it serves no function other then to look pretty ...

    if you move your head really low to the monitor then you can pretend though!

    Don't forget that you can get really close to your monitor and pretend.  AHH Also you can change your res to 400x300 to pretend even more!   <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

    (Ok I think that was rude.  But I've been working on a game myself and I needed a break and some tension release <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->)

    I read a post somewhere that said (I cant quote unfortunately) that the LMG is designed for use in many different environments and so has a scope for when long distance fighting occurs. They also said that because the scope would never be needed in such a close and confined environment and so its been disabled to stop idiots using the scope and getting killed.

    Thats what I read anyway, they put it much better than I did.

    The lmg has a scope because I had some polys to burn and the top of the lmg looked kind of bland.

    <b>BOY</b> am I regretting putting it up there.

    Don't. It may not make sense but it looks very cool.

    If that explanation isnt official then it should be made so.
    i always love your stories/theories/ideas Sgt.X, you a regular shakespeare.

    He jests at scars that never felt a wound
    but soft, what might through yonder ns_bast breaks?
    Its CMEast, and with him a gun
    Arise, O' marine, and kill the whole platoon
    who are already sick and pale with fear
    That thou grenades are in the lair with thee

    This is why I got a B in English even though I forgot to do the last project and didn't get enough time for the written exam.
