Grappling Hook and Zip Line on Iron Gator

[TomGazpacho]

Ok, so I read that EA/DICE removed the grappling hook and zip line from kits in the Iron Gator map with the 1.12 patch. Does anybody know why?

They thought it made it too easy for the MEC SF to get aboard.

I've played a round or two where it seems to take forever to cap a carrier flag as MEC.

It would be awkward zip lining inside a carrier...

Re: Grappling Hook and Zip Line on Iron Gator

So? It would be useful for using on the control tower to the deck, or just helping a squad move faster...wonder if you can shoot it into a boat?

Grappling hook from a boat is a must-have....would be real battle then!

Re: Grappling Hook and Zip Line on Iron Gator

Awkward how? SF soldiers carry zip/hooks on all other maps, yet the one map where it is most needed, they removed it. It would highlight great team work; seeing small boats pull up along side of the carrier and teams of 6 working their way up the lines to the aircraft elevators or even to the flight deck.

Plus, your K/D takes a huge hit in the first couple of runs at the carrier, until you cap a flag because you are a sitting duck for US defenders.

No more awkward than sticking AT mines on concrete bridges or Claymores in wide open fields, or sniping down 20 foot hallways.

Re: Grappling Hook and Zip Line on Iron Gator

There have been a lot of times I've needed a grappling hook and a zipline would be nice on occasion, just don't know why they had to take it out of the kits.

You should be able to attach the grapping hooks and zip lines to the aircraft carrier from the boats and then tow the ship ashore and run it aground.... that will teach those silly Americans! Heeyaw!
