Engineers & Repair points

[gunner.b0b]

yeah, like some of the guys said, once nOOb ops gets points for blowing up commander assets, they will be coming out of the wood work. lol, there will probably be TK fights amongst people as to whose turn it is to blow up the UAV antenna!

Thats what im banking on this in the next patch ...., i just unlocked the jackhammer so spec ops can eat my shot lol. As for the TK thing yeh i can see that coming too. Just haveto hope the stats padding/exploits thing is sussed also.

yeah, I think there should be a change in it. It takes a long time to repair something for just one point.

Yeah...there's a lot of problems with that idea.

If you're hurt and walk over a bag full of first aid stuff, chances are fairly good that as an elite soldier you can fix yourself up somewhat.
You should definitely be able to use an ammo pack that you scoop up.
If you're sitting inside of a tank/vehicle, why the heck should running over a bag of tools fix it up for you?
Even if you got out of the tank and picked up the tools, most soldiers don't know how to fix ground and air vehicles.

Also, as someone already posted, this would make tanks impossible to destroy.

you know, if their going to make it an arcade game, why don't they just go all out? everything else is. why not have supply crates or ammo bags or whatever at different spots on the map that people could pick up. would need a respawn time though.

Because that would negate the point of having a support and an engineer class.

And because it made getting resupplied way too easy in 1942, at least if people want to spam grenades now they have to have a couple support folks handy, rather than just being able to sit next to a crate and chuck all day long :>)

as of right now i have 301 repair points, what does that tell you? ..

Repair points are EASY to get. you get one for repairing commander assests and you get one for fixing a vehicle that has less then half armor left
