Take Kits when needed or 'in Case'?

The RPG7 was nerfed more than other LAT systems in .86. The blast radius of the RPG7 was reduced to 25% of it's original size, while the conventional forces LAT systems stayed the same. And they all got the increased settle time. So, while using the RPG against infantry is almost pointless, using the AT4 or other systems still works great.

That's true, you're right. I was still thinking RPG-7

That's because you're a noob McFail.

You never know when you need it (so you take it..), and when you do need it it's usually gone. I find this is the case for most kits. Real troops dont have to worry about this kind of thing, they are always properly equipped.

well, I don't know what would happen if RL troops were taking the kind of casualites or fought teh same enemies as bluefor teams do ingame. (200 deaths in the space of 3hrs, a conventional and heavily armed MEC etc)

Well, they come with all equipment needed and save it for when it is needed, the problem with PR is some guy halfway across the map takes a needed kit, and everyone else is hung to dry when they get overrun by armor. The troops are just too spread out to use the weapons as needed

Only when I know that we have enemy armour around that we need to deal with do I ask a SM to take a LAT/HAT. For the rest I prefer to see everybody with just spawnable kits. Even veterans get narrow vision when they get special kits.

For some reason people who aren't in a proper infantry squad feel entitled to all the damn AT and marksman kits, leaving none for the people who could actually use them. If you are infantry in a non-infantry squad take a goddamn rifleman or switch squads, don't be selfish.

true i hate this this unless like the other day i was on kashan looking over the Bunkers our SL spotted a MBT so someone in our squad asked if he could take the HAT kit there was already a squad with a HAT situated on the other side of the map!,he tok the HAT and destroyed the tank no survivers. we then took out 5 more armoured MBTs and APCs it all depends on the situation of course we were in a prime position and needed to take out the MBT(main battle tank before anyone asks). although i still don't think poeple should just take HAT and Sniper kits unless they are in a good area like we were

Tbh the best thing here is "Sh*t tank!!!! Lets call in friendly tank/IFV/air support!"


I agree with Rudds post really, AA, HAT and such should be left to dedicated squads like McLuvs support one as there are frequently people trying to do that who also will be better set up to do it.
