My small group of at most 3 people would love to have another gun covering our butts. We have our own ventrilo server as well. We are around the same timezone as well. If you have steam, add me 'axeto'.
I was always under the impression that your backpack would be covered by the ghillie, nothing unrealistic about that. I suppose the model should show a lump on people´s back. Anything else would make the ghillie suit pointless imho.
