[ARCHIVED THREAD] - New MC patterns? (Page 1 of 2)
Posted: 11/22/2013 12:09:21 PM EDT
Kinda defeats the purpose having 5 universal(?) patterns. Oh no, it's true. Heaven save us. |
| Looks to me like they're playing catchup with A-Tacs LE by releasing the MC black. |

Quoted:
Still waiting for a decent snow camo Snow camo is easy, white oversuit and spray paint. Then it gets waterlogged and freezes solid, weighs triple it's dry weight, sags off your body, buckles and ties freeze over.... I'm waiting for good snow camo too. My stuff is good concealment, but it's horrible to use. |

Bit of irony isn't there?? Does this mean that original Multicam isn't very....... MULTI?? PenCott Snowdrift. Quoted:

[Still waiting for a decent snow camo PenCott Snowdrift. Do you really expect any pattern to work well in arid, temperate, and snow, or was this tongue-in-cheek? That PenCott looks nice, though. |
FYI the Multicam 'black' was accidentally released early by LA police gear
ho hum. Makes sense for uniformed SWAT with money to burn, I suppose http://soldiersystems.net/2013/11/23/multicam-black-game-on/ |

Those are the goofiest looking action movie bad guys soldiers ever. 
|
|
Good lord, that is fucking awful!. As for the MC Alpine, yeah I'll pick that up. |
|
Looks more like A-Tacs VG (video game) to me. Cool pattern, though. |

Please elaborate. Quoted:
Quoted:
there is a purpose the pattern composition works Please elaborate. The pattern layering is over 150 levels deep in MC. Very difficult for the human eye to focus on it. IMHO, MC works in just about all non-urban environs except snow. They are obviously trying to keep market share. |

There's three layers and six colors to normal/transitional multicam. I asked him to elaborate because it sounded like he was referring to MC Black. |

Looks like MC got dipped in RIT dye.

I have admit. I have spent way to much cash on Multicam stuff, but I'm just not felling it. I hope the other colors turn out a bit better. indeed Maybe Crye and Truspec will have luck selling it to the LE crowd, I dunno. I just dont see it being popular at outside of them and some of the gear nerds like us. Frankly though, if I had to guess, I would say it will flop despite the hype. Who knows though,maybe it will sell. It wouldnt be the first time I've been horribly wrong. |

Tropical top with regular Multicam pants or Arid mag pouches on Tropical PC. I think the Alpine looks good too. I might have to get something in Alpine, like a hat , just for the hell of it.

The Alpine looks pretty cool too. I hope someone makes a goretex poncho in the alpine material. |

I like them. BUT my general rule is that I don't like super specific camo.
Many times, I have seen guys in desert camo walk by dark green trees and bushes. I have also seen guys in woodland/forest camo walk into or by bright tan wheat fields or dirt roads/fields. Super specific camo is only a good idea in super specific situations. |

Yes, but most of the western US could probably get by with the arid camo pretty well. I live in one of the few 'alpine' areas of Utah at 6,000ft and I'd say the alpine would work in 80% of the county. But it's because of that 20% (just like you said) that I'll keep my MC. In the rest of Utah I think MC is a little too green except for a couple of weeks in the spring. I think most camo is simply too dark, when I was bow hunting I could pick out most hunters because they would look like a black blob moving through the woods at distance. Using MultiCam the contrast to the background was a lot less and it is hard to pick them out. I always favor lighter camo over darker, I'd wager the new 'arid' camo would work better in the green areas of Utah than the green camo would work in the arid areas. ASAT camo is really good for this imo. I'm definitely getting some of the white camo, and for coyote hunting outside this county I think the arid will be nice. |
