engineer new kit?

[Brian]

The Engineer can't kill anything with the shotgun? bullsh!t. You don't know how to use it.

How do you fix a airborne chopper with a cresent wrench?

They should also have some duct tape and chewing gum.

[lcplsickoll]

Hey...duct tape fixes everything....and the shotty is unreal in close quarters. You can take out 2 men with one shot.

Select the wrench, press C (external view) and start repairing (with your index finger)...

It would be great if the wrench did damage... Think getting knifed or paddled to death is embarrassing... :cry:

[WeeeOooO]

Anyone catch John Cusack on the late show? Was hilarious... They were talking about him going up on a C-130 stormchaser thingy into a hurricane, and he was looking at the aircraft and pulled off a peice of duct tape and asked the pilot what it was, the pilots reply was: "Airforce metal! Not get on!"

Or something like that..

Airforce metal... yea... Its funny, right?

Hells yea, that'd be awesome if you could whack a guy with the wrench...

Engineers should be able to place more mines.

I think engineers should be able to place more mines, as it is you can only deploy a set amount. If you get more ammo and place more mines the old ones dissolve. Also I think the mines should stay the whole map and not dissapear after the engi dies a few times.

Underpowered?

The shotgun is not underpowered at all... In close quarters it is pretty much BROKEN. It is way too good in CQB. I got 7 kills simply by standing in the middle of an enemy base where they were constantly spawning. Spawns were too far apart to camp but it didn't matter because the shotgun kills too quickly and easily. It was fine and good until an APC came along and banged my head in. One shot death at a pretty good range and I even remember killing a guy from 15m in one shot cuz he was low on health. You don't even need to "aim" the weapon, just point and win. On many occasions I, myself remember getting one shot killed from a shotgun and hating the experience terribly.

7 kills in under a minute is too good to overlook. I plan to top this once I start using it regularily.

nah then the whole damn map would be full of mines... and stupid pubbys would drive over them and punish you

[Odinpalen]

I dissagree with forge. More mines would allow for more strategy. You would be able to stop the map exploiters who drive armor on the very fringe of the map at any possible angle to get by the main routes. Example Karkand, the usa now goes along the -SW- side of map when rushning the -NW- outpost. Now as it stands you would need 3 engineers to mine that -SW- side. And then you would need 2 engineers for the center area and 2 two more engineers for the -SE- side of the map. That accounts for 7 engineers. Just to stop one peice of armour. If your lucky its a noob in the armor and most likely dumb enough to rush South outpost. As for the tards who ptk becuase they think red skulls and cross bones are power ups, well ea should punish them for suicides.

I dont know about claymores, but C4 and Mines yes

i know they do Claymores and Mines, im not sure about C4

[Dogeared]

I've diffused a lot of enemy mines / C4 / claymores.. but have never seen any icons over them. *shrug* That wrench does it all.... except kill. I've tried...and it doesn't work.

The shotgun is pretty good, and that jackhammer is just insane! I tried it out for several rounds when some nice guys unlocked all my weapons for me... and started charging enemy squads holding the trigger! :lol:
(Too bad EA relocked those weapons.)

And I say "No" to more mines. I see far too many teamkills already.

[shriven]

Man you are crazy you really have to try the engineer class again, anyone who says it sucks is really misguided... It's a very fun class to play, but has a totally different style.

You just have to pick your fights carefully and not let them see you coming, because I guarantee you that even the winchester kills anyone in one shot if you get close... I took out 4 guys at a CP the other night , each with one blast.

I've only picked up the jack hammer once, and that thing was brutal... I unloaded I think at least 3 shots on some poor MEC guy in the same time it takes for one shot of the winchester.

And dog is right... if you want to use mines.. get ready to get TK's and most likely get banned.. I've been banned from two servers from mines.. because for some reason people punish you because they grew up im some world where a skull and crossbones means "PLEASE DRIVER OVER ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
