Switching Kits

[RimReaper]

Would you guys like to see the ability to switch kits while you're at a supply crate? Good idea, bad idea?

Re: Switching Kits

Yep...I think its a great idea. As long as when you switch kits you have 0 ammo...which then would require you to stand at the crate longer to resupply yourself (hope the crate lasts long enough).

Not a bad tweak on the idea. I was thinking you could only switch if you had full ammo to prevent the obvious abuse possibilities.

There's a gapping exploit here tho.

Players could start as engie, lay out 5 mines, switch kit to sniper, lay down their clays, switch to medit, toss med bags, etc, etc. Uber farming.

Re: Switching Kits

That's actually a pretty nice idea, I know how many times ive gotten ****ed off cause I couldn't change kits without dying.

Wargimp, doesn't that kind of defeat the whole purpose here? I thought that the idea was to make it so that you could accomplish one task and go right to another one with a different kit. But I have a solution for the mine/claymore/whatever spam, just tell the game to get rid of it when the guys changes weapons.

Re: Switching Kits

Better yet, maybe only allow one switch from that crate, or one switch in one life, so you have to make a smart choice about it. It just seems kinda lame somtimes when you want to re-adapt to the conditions and no dead guys in sight to steal from

I seen many guys TK a guy who won't give them ammo or drop a med pack after repeated queries, just to pick-up their kit, resupply themselves and go off on their merry way.

Re: Switching Kits

Sounds like a great idea.

Re: Switching Kits

Haha I've actually been standing at a kit thinking "Jeez, I'd love to switch to Anti-Tank for this huge convoy of armor heading my way...Maybe I'll just shoot him with my G36E..."

Re: Switching Kits

I have to admit Harmor, I will put a slug in a medics ass if I ask him a number of times for help. So far I haven't TK'd a single one, and they always seem to oblige after that, so I stick to what works

Re: Switching Kits

interesting..but like wargimp said..it can be abused, but maybe if it took like 30 seconds to switch

Re: Switching Kits

Pass. I don't really like kit swapping anyway.

Re: Switching Kits

i would like to see this it would be cool or just at maps with an uncapable base a like armory

Re: Switching Kits

Great idea!

What expand the possiblities of BF2 by far. If you're going around as medic, and suddenly a tank rumbles in and starts mowing down everyone, just run up to the crate, switch to AT, and carry out your duties!
