    Not much to repair, but their shotguns can really rape in the right hands!

        IF the IO maps were played as intended, Engys would be needed to repair the UAV and Sat systems. BUT since nobody cares about scan or UAV in an all out Cluster F**k or orgiastic point whoring nervanna, about the only thing an Engy has going for himself IS the great lethality of his shotgun in close combat.

          ya i agree with whats being said here about the shotgun .
          but you kit is just a knife,pistol,shotgun and nades not much is it.
          low shotguns are gr8 in a tight spot they have a long reload time .
          and if you gota cross opne ground you may aswell paint a bullseye on your head.
          :ar15: :dead:
          think il go have a few games as an Engineer see how it works out .
          maybe even if they kept the jeep drop in for IO it would have helped.
          anyway thanks for your replys cheers ppl

            Open ground never bothers me. You have to move in a zig zag and use pan left and pan right all the while you are varying your speed between walk/sprint. Keep moving and never travel in a predictable path or speed. If the enemy are going to shoot at you, at least make them work for it!

              They should have done for IO what they did in BF:V - give classes alternate weapon loadouts. Remove engineer and AT kits entirely and give shotguns as an alternate to the Assault class. At least that way you'd have some body armour along with your shotgun instead of being essentially a free kill as an engineer.

                  Yah the single shot is great at close range. Great using at close and medium range if you center it right on their torso. One of my new top 4 weapons to use if there are lots of guys; one round of pumps wipes out an entire squad.

                  Post screenshots of your sneakups with the pump.

                        we we all need to put in a lot of time with our kits to get awards .
                        and if this kit isnt much use then anyone looking to get their Engineer time up.
                        will just go play on another sever that isnt infantry only .

                              long ago before a nerf when mines wre destructible i used them offensively...setting them up like a iud where infantry would go and them set them off with a grenade for major kills...if they were destructible again egny would be cool on infantry only...
