The one kit you wish your team always had more of...

Re: The one kit you wish your team always had more of...

I'd love to see tanks and helicopters promptly dispatched by a hail of AT rockets.

My hunch is that people don't bother because only one person can get points for the kills.

Kill Assist...?

I love to shoot at choppers with the AT rocket. Lets them know that more powerful things can touch them...
Especially love it when you shoot in a BH and watch the bodies falling out. :laugh:

The current kill assist system is a joke.

The point system in general is a joke.

Anyway, medics and AT guys. In spite of how powerful the medic class is (especially with the shiny new G36E), it seems like nobody wants to play the class. I'll request a medic, and there are none to be found. The average team in a public server would be far better off if there were less carbine-whores and more G36E-whores. AT guys are great to have to, especially when the attack chopper pilot is being a 'tard and not supporting his team.

Re: The one kit you wish your team always had more of...

Less medics, more generic assault, snipers, anti tank, support.. you name it.. Just less medics in general.. I mean even in a team of thirty you should only have five or six medics, instead I keep seeing teams almost completely comprised of medics. I want anti tankers, competent support gunners, assault people, snipers, you name it, i want it. >.>

Anybody got an ideal squad build?

Mine's one medic (usually me, or somebody else)
One anti tank
One support
Three pure attack classes, either in sniping, assault, or spec ops. And if armor comes into the equation, we switch one of the attack classes, normally one assault for an engineer. >.>

C'mon.. What's everybody's favorite squad setup?

I'd actually like to hear about an ideal TEAM setup. Let's say, 16v16. How would you divy up kits and squads?

Re: The one kit you wish your team always had more of...

1 Assault
2 Medic
1 Support
1 AT

And the sixth guy is a sniper, assault, or AT depending on the map/situation.

EDIT:

For a 16-man team, I'd have one 6-man squad (following above formula), two 4-man squads (each having 1 assault/special ops, 2 medic, 1 AT), and two lone wolves (one tank driver and one commander).

Re: The one kit you wish your team always had more of...

Yeah but having two medics kind of pigeon holes you doesn't it? Better to have a well versed group in ALL the kit details, so that if your medic gets wasted, you can pick up the kit, revive him, take on his job and move on.. Then rinse and repeat as necessary. Give him back his kit when you take down the next enemy.. Always works well for me, plus it doesn't severely limit your firepower like having two medics does. That extra slot could mean life or death against tanks, or a really dense infantry charge.

Re: The one kit you wish your team always had more of...

ok imo, there's no fav squad setup, when the flag that ur squad is defending are being heavily attacked by armors, u need more ATs and Spec Ops. when u are engaged a few infantry, maybe u just need some medics and support guys. just respawn on ur SL as whichever class that is demanded at certain situations.

Re: The one kit you wish your team always had more of...

Enginers, need more people to repair vehicles.

Re: The one kit you wish your team always had more of...

no seriously, AT is needed most, normally... normally 1 AT per squad is not enuf 2 dispatch a single tank, unless the drivers a real tool....

my perfect squad:
1 assault
1 support
2 AT
2 medics

Plus, to come back 2 sumthn said earlier, with the DAO-12 and their rocket launchers, ATs can deal real damage even 2 infantry.... god i love AT

medics

Re: The one kit you wish your team always had more of...

Medics. No one is ever around to revive me.

even if there is, im looking at the sky and see the good medic go by and not even bothering taking out his shock paddles:laugh:
oh! and sometimes it just takes them 5second to find the "6" key... and ohh nooo... too late:cry: sooooo bad i couldn't revive you :evil: .
all the same:|:

so i just do...no........ was doing my job as a medic to give the example...

Re: The one kit you wish your team always had more of...

In Special Forces, nobody wants to play the medic kit, as it has none of the new goodies. I constantly find myself wishing more people would play as medic (oh, and I'm a medic myself).

In Battlefield 2, I would have to agree with all those who said engineer. The only times I'm low on ammo are when I go AT, and I usually don't live long enough to desperately need a support. Not to mention that on most maps, there are more than enough medics running around reviving you at the worst possible time, just so they can get 2 more points added to their score.

Re: The one kit you wish your team always had more of...

Best Squad for city maps (BF):

2 Medic
1 Support
1 Anti-Tank
(2 of the following: Spec-Ops, Assault, Engineer, Sniper)
// However Engineer / Sniper should not double up

For Vehicle Maps:

1 Medic
1 Support
2 Anti-Tank
1 Engineer
1 Spec-Ops

Oh for best kit:

Well we definitely need more noobs. Always have need of those when they're at the other end of your gun barrel.

Re: The one kit you wish your team always had more of...

There is never an engineer or a support soldier around when you need one.
