1:30: Bug? Unable to repair assets while in a vehicle?

....Engineers need a little help in the area of repairing, and that's what these folks are worried about. However, you can still repair in vehicles, so this whole thread is based on a misconception.

I had this concept to make a 'Toolkit' for Engineers:

But that would add to the arcade feel of the game. The realy 'fix' would be to increase the amount of points earned while repairing the way we do now, by at least 2x.

How many times have you seen a medic have 20 revives and 10 heals, a support like 40 resupply points and an Engineer with 4 repair points...its laughable.

If you can throw a med bag at someone and they can heal themselves then an engy should be able to throw you a toolbox and you fix your own tank :)

I didn't have any problems repairing things while in my vehicle over the last few days. It has always been passive though, no audio no wrench sign, just the occasional you rec'd a repair point.

I suppose if this change ever were made, and one could no longer repair assets from inside a vehicle, I would still get by. I'd just have to try and convince a teammate (pref medic or support) to accompany me while I do my repairs. I know, Good luck getting that to happen. :P

Yes it takes time, but as someone said its more realistic to actually get out of the car and repair something.

I mean how realistic is it that you can sit in your APC checking a 360deg view for people who might kill you yet still actually repair stuff?

Stay in a squad and ask for support from team mates as back up while you repair things.

LOL!!!!!!! You realize that the 'realism' in repairing that you refer to is completely debunked by the fact that you are repairing every single thing in the game with a crescent wrench?? Lol...
