The ideal Engineer if I had my way.

[wiggle_nutz]

I know nothing will ever come of this but, hey, maybe a modder will see this.....

What if the engineer had the ability to build fixed weapons positions? What if they could build a defensive station with AA or Anti-Tank or .50 cal or motar (ooohhh...) attached. It could be both destructible and repairable. Make it take 20-30 seconds to build so you wouldn't see them all over the place.

Think about the strategy this would open up...Heli's owning a map? Build AA. Too many tanks? AT positions should help. Need light arty support? A motar pit will do nicely....

The engineer could man the weapons, or let a teamate do so.

You could put them on top of buildings on city maps, or in places where the enemy might not expect it.

What if he could smack people in the head with his wrench.

Yeah and beat them to a bloody pulp. Then we could all get bloody pulp badges LOL.

Dousent seem a bad idear to me it kinda sounds a bit like team fortress engineer with his rotating machine gun emplacement.

Re: The ideal Engineer if I had my way.

lol. Yes, that too. Maybe we can use the wrench to give the dreaded "purple nurple". How bout a twisted nippl badge?

Re: The ideal Engineer if I had my way.

I think the engineer should be able to loosen the lug nuts on all the vehicles so the wheels fall off when somebody gets in it and trys to take off.

And then the theme song from "dukes of hazard" should start playing.

Re: The ideal Engineer if I had my way.

I've suggested this in a mod forum before, I think it would be great, the only thing is that there should be a limit as to how many can be deployed before another has to be destroyed.

I think random AA and AT missiles popping up would keep the Flight and Tank Whores on their toes.

Re: The ideal Engineer if I had my way.

I think that would be a great idea. I love to play on Karkand and it seems like the other team always gets the all of the armor and then comes and rapes us. I cant tell you how many times another AT position would have come in handy. I would use it if it was in the game.

Re: The ideal Engineer if I had my way.

not a bad idea really

Re: The ideal Engineer if I had my way.

that would be like Team Fortress!!! but that would also be sorta very unrealistic if they could build things. you see a guy walking around with nothing more than a wrench and a backpack, and he somehow builds an AA? out of what? sand and rocks? lol. But it WOULD be a good idea if they could repair things that were damaged such as that, as for RE-building them, I dunno. But its a good idea to run with.

Re: The ideal Engineer if I had my way.

Superb idea! Then the AA guns would be in a better position to take down aircraft, instead of it being behind a tree or building. Rediculous positions by the map designers.

Re: The ideal Engineer if I had my way.

Yea, the map design sucks alot for the most of the TOW and AA. But then again, I don't like the idea of aa and tows and mg emplacements being set up in say in the uncappable, on the runways, middle of roads, or top of buildings.

Imagine if you could 5 TOWs all pointing down the same street.
or 3 AA on mountain tops.
or say 16 of a mixed bag around you last flag spawn camping.

I prefer the old wack the head with the wrench. I want it to be like CoD where everything could be a melee weapon. Love to whack someone up the side of the head with a claymore or a ammo/medicpack.

i actually agree with this ...

seriously a wrench should be able to damage especially if you consider a that hitting someone when you throw a smoke grenade actually does inflict albeit minimal damage....

it doesnt have to kill in one blow but should hurt.... like it does in real life... ask the guy who had an "accident" with a monkey wrench i was holding... :evil: :cry:

Expert engineer gets a GOLD wrench that you can use as a weapon.
