i think i still prefer the famas, the 416 feels like any other faction with an m4 style rifle. The famas makes the faction unique if they add the french faction i would love it if only the sl and some rifleman get the 416 while lats hats engies get the famas
i feel like for a quite correct faction, you can choose between famas and 416, as the famas is still used now, even if the majority is replaced: french military said that for a batch of 416 pursue, a famas will be rehabilited (using recycled parts)
If the PLA got the QBZ, a vanilla French faction will almost certainly get FAMAS. And to be honest I think that's a good thing, who in their right mind wants another AR-15 wielding faction, it just wouldn't be right.
I do love the M27 in the Marine faction (which basically is a HK 416) but yeah, and to be accurate the FAMAS F1 is still in use it’s not completely phased out of the army branches as we speak, there is still a long way to go until it’s the de facto standard service rifle.
Random tip but you can go on the west side of ins main in the vanilla game, you just gotta hug the map border. Idk if the kid is different but I imagine it’s similar
From what I remember the mod is loaded with both versions, the circa 2010 and the 2022ish… but yeah, besides the famas is a vibe, unlike yet another ar-15
