They should talk to the folks at Mossy Oak.

If I’m not mistaken, the folks at Crye Precision did talk to other manufacturers in the development of Multicam. Years back, I remember reading something about the genesis of some of these newer patterns, and Mossy Oak was brought up. Mossy Oak is made for very specific environments, and is for concealment from animal eyes. Military patterns of course, need to be more generalized, and are made to deceive human eyes, hence the differences in the end product.

One of the earlier digital civilian patterns was named 'timber ghost'. There is little timber here, but I walked off an oil location wearing bibs and an M-65 style jacket in that pattern into a stubble field (harvested wheat field) and one of the hands commented: "Man, it was like you disappeared!".

I'm not sure if the pattern is produced any more, but it was great in fall grasslands and wheat fields.
