Getting used to kits.

[demonicklown445]

Ok I can get a few kits in the game such as the support and crewmen and pilot. But its the anti air, anti tank, and sniper/marksmen that I cant get. I have been in many positions where my team has told me to hit a target, and I cant do it very well with out a scope up to my eye.

Can anybody tell me how the different kit system works, I cant seem to figure all of it out.

You request it...? I don't understand your question.

Assuming your not on the Beta; http://guide.realitymod.com/index.ph...e=Kit_Limiting.

Some of the heavier kits requires that you request them at a base or APC, and not a RP.

Yep, as for getting the kits like marksman and sniper i'd suggest a faster pc and connection. I ussualy am on the first spawn wave so while others run up next to the flag and think what they want i just stand behind the wall and request sniper (or marksman depending on my mood) from behind the wall (it's the range that matters)

Please tell me whats the reason to get sniper\marksman at the round start ? I never see those ppl like you ( who get kits first and hold it for entire round ) countersnipe enemy snipers when needed and theres also no chance of getting leet sniper kit when theres an actual need for it . Please explain what you all are doing ? I really have no idea ...

I once posted a long bit of how kit selection works in the very start of a round.

Watch for the message in the top left corner of the screen when requesting the kits. It will tell you if there are any available. There are only a limited amount of each kit so you can't always request one. Certain kits (heavy AT for sure) can't be requested from the RP's but can be from main base and the back of APCs (litterally like 2 feet from the back of the US APC, or the side for MEC APC's).

Second thing is you need to pick up the kit after you request it, it's not instantly yours. Also watch that sometimes the kit will not appear on the ground, its a known bug but you can still press the pick up key and recieve the kit.

To go slightly off topic here:
I don't see anything wrong with grabbing a sniper kit at the beggining of a round. What is so wrong with that? If you play like a lone wolfer super l33t sniper it doesn't matter when you get the kit in game, your still a useless tit. If you grab the kit right off the hop and provide intel to the commander and support for the team great, plus theres the added bonus that the useless tit can't get the kit. The sniper is powerfull kit, it's all in how you play it.

its just I have been stuck in many a positions where I could really use a scoped weapon with great accuracy. But I've only gotten the marksmen kit once. Never got to shoot any body with it.

I've picked up a sniper kit, and had to keep killing the mec that wanted his rifle back each time he came up to get it.

But I know how you can get most of the kits, I've explored it just a little bit.
I just can never get the sniper kit, I squad up instantly, get to my squad and sometimes get the M249 as soon as I can from a rally point. But, I usually die unless my target cant see me, and I have the clear to shoot.
