its actually pointless. my opinion if ur walking around and have a ati 8500 and theres a sniper in a bush well u wont see him. but if ur in the same situation but with a nvidia 6800 u will se himm..its all about video settings.

It would be more useful if their name wasn't displayed above their head.

it is sad that this camouflage isn't working as it has to... because all concealment can be destroyed by the video settings of the opponent

It can make a huge difference if you understand the basics of camoflage, know your surroundings, and move slow.

Otherwise, you'll be seen by everyone.

Depends on where you are (the map, as well as specific location); but as a rule, no.

not really because the pixels that make up the ghille suit don't match the pixels that make up the grass/bushes and the fact that both "textures" are actually 2dimensional renderings not 3dimensional, the camo is not effective

Especially when you see 3 bushes on top of the damn crane in Sharqi...

Not
Great success!

Sure it helps, but obviously not if you're standing in front of a building. The argument about video settings is mostly valid, though, if the sniper positions himself well then it can really be effective. I've hid in VERY small bushes and had people run right past me....on Gulf of Oman. I was a USMC sniper right behind the MEC runway, on that hill, hiding in a bush. And yes, people ran literally right past me and I knifed them. It's really about learning where to place yourself in that cover. If you're sticking way the hell out then yeah they'll see you.


Just like BigMack said, you have to know the basics of camo and move slowly. Real camo won't work either if you're wearing arctic in the desert and bunnyhopping. =P

No, because the camo fades at a distance.

If the guy is in ur face, u'll probably see him... but from far away long range, it's helping alot. also the technique help alot. hide in bush and such

Uhhh no. Ghillie suits are meant to be used in terrain with dense brush, and foilage. Those kinds of conditions are non-existant in BF2. Notice how police/swat snipers don't wear the suits? I wonder why. If you can find a bush to hide in, yeah, it'll work, but for +99% of the BF2 terrain the ghillie suit just makes you easier to spot.

Also, the UAV, scans, and big red name above head defeats the whole purpose of putting any significant effort of actually trying to use camoflauge.

was messing with my clanmate the other day and took this screen... i think it can help sometimes, but not very often tbh... not very hard to spot where he is when you look, but it would be easy not to notice him if you wern't specifically looking i reckon.
