Do you think machine guns are meant to? Like 99.9% of shots fired don't hit the intended target. My friends can move towards your position, meanwhile if you pop your head up to shoot them you'll catch plenty of bullets to the head.

Here's some advice. Anyone who's claiming that there's a camo that simultaneous works for jungle/forrest, desert, and arctic conditions is either blind, an idiot, or a snakeoil salesman.

TL;DR Multicam is garbage as is virtually any camouflage pattern fielded since 2000

This was too aesthetic for the modern era

>>3088090
No. It's impossible to make a single pattern that works well in every- or even most terrains. Multicam and it's derivants did a good try, but still, in every possible terrain the comparable specified pattern is better.
You could just as well use a drab green or brown as a standard issue, and give a specified camo to those who need it when they need it.

True patricians know that the Swiss Guards are the most aesthetic soldiers of the 15th, 16th , 17th, 18th, 19th, 20th, 21st, 22nd, and 24th centuries.

More than anything I think it's nostalgia for the photostock and the grooming. (Whether it's the hair or how they altered their uniforms) Also helps to have solid colored unis instead of doofy camo; lord help those decked out in woodland.
