Assault Kits

[imported_Zano]

Is it me or does everyone use the same assault kit. With the difference of the main weapon to preference, the assault kit that EVERYONE uses is:

-Main Weapon (usually Voss)
-Pk Rockets (who can blame them)
-Defib

Please tell me if I'm wrong. Every time I kill an assault enemy, I check their kit when the situation allows, and I'm reloading the voss and looking at a defib and some Pk rockets. Does anyone carry anything else?

Asking the question is also answering it.

Re: Assault Kits

i use the herzog shotgun sometimes. And either krylov or scar only.

I was actually suprised the other day. I picked up a kit and it had rockets and the herzog, no defib! :shock:

I see that alot, specially on titan maps, only thing I could think of is if you've got a good squad with someone having defibulator...

Do you still show up on the mini map with the cross if someone doesn't carry the defib... would explain why some medics just walk over you when you're critically injured :)

Re: Assault Kits

I have a combination of weapons according to where I go (admittedly not quite as complicated as Momo's "kits for different flags" ideas but still):

Titan... voss rockets defib... it's mostly CQC and rockets are handy for ranged enemies or shooting consoles.

Conquest, 32- : standard rifle, herzog and defib. Usually get a bit more time to think about killing enemies, so less need for rockets. Herzog keeps CQC combat under control.

Conquest 32+ - standard rifle (unless it's a particularly laggy server) - pk rockets and defib... given more enemies and ultimately more spam, can't stay still for long, so pk rockets take out ranged enemies quickly and I can save bullets for medium range or less.

Generally works for me... I can't see a reason to not have the defib... it's an extra few points for you, and anybody who uses rockets+herzog needs to learn that given they use the same ammo... IT'S SILLY :) Smoke nades are creative... just.... not good at killing people.

Re: Assault Kits

whenever im PAC i will use the krylov

whenever im EU i will use the voss or baur but if i see a krylov and it has a defib i will pick it up.

generally rockets have way more applications than herzog because for instance some assault player is shooting at you and he ducks behind a box or something to reload you an blow him up with rockets. ez.

sometimes when im in the mood or im on a smooth server i will use a herzog AND BLASTA SOME MEATBALLZ

i always have a defib and never pick up a kit that doesnt have one preferably because its really useful to keep teammates alive for many reasons. Herzog+Rockets is just dumb because its not like you can pound out the rockets and then immediately switch to the herzog it works off the same ammo supply. Radar nade is not useful enough because you only have 1 and it takes FOREVER to resupply.

Winning combination ANYWHERE imo =krylov+pks+defib but the voss is a pretty good substitute. i still think the gun is kind of noob but i notice ill usually get more kills per round on average because its a very forgiving gun and if you can shoot the baur well the voss is a disturbingly refreshing breeze.

I'd say that kit load is probably the most popular, by FAR, for Assault players. It's what I put together 9 times out of 10.

You can't really blame anyone, though. What else is an assault going to kit? The radar grenade? Don't make me laugh. Smoke grenades seem like they'd be a useful choice, but in practical application in this game, they almost never seem to work out well. The most success I ever had with them wasn't covering my own movements, but using them as bait to lure in enemies who thought they'd surprise me through the smoke, and then I'd lob, you guessed it, rockets into the smoke cloud for a few easy kills.

Assault only has 2 good toys to put into their kit, IMO. The defib, and the rockets. The Herzog is nice too, but obviously most players prefer being able to lob exposives as opposed to getting right up into somebody's face for the Herzog. If you could get Close Combat pins with the Herzog, it might be a different story, but since you can't... rockets and defib have way more utility all-round.

Re: Assault Kits

Yeah, not only is it "demented", it is also "you're", as in "you are" - not a possessive pronoun.
