Add rifleman specialist and standard rifleman to requestible kit list.

snooggums · 03-04-2010, 04:31 PM

I thought there was already a thread for this but I did not find one while searching for 'rifleman' over the last 6 months.

Please add the Rifleman (scoped and unscoped like the officer on right left click) and the rifleman specialist to the requestible kit selection menu. Many times i have been in more need of a rope than a LAT kit, yet unless someone dies and respawns the specialist kit is unavailable. It also restricts the soldier from dropping a request kit and going back to a basic rifleman if the squad's objectives change. There should be no reason to have to trade a sniper kit for a grenadier kit if one is not needed, but there is no other way to get rid of the kit.

theres been countless times ive been i need of a riflemen or specialist kit for the odd reason. This would be fine.

You can generally find standard kits everywhere now that they hang around for 5 minutes

Wouldn't hurt to put it in the list anyway. Especially now that you can drop kits - what if you actually surrendered, the enemy for some reason did NOT shoot you - you escape to the nearest forward outpost and need a rifleman kit again? Of course, they lie around, but maybe you're (un)lucky and no friendly rifleman died for some time.

It's a resuggestion, but with the new drop kit stuff, I think it's a somewhat different situation now.

at least would keep people from taking specialised kits just cause they want another kit...

How long can the list be though? That is the question.

If it can be as long as the screen I suggest putting in the ability for ALL kits, so we can have iron sighted spawn kits as well, like an M4 irons for rifleman.

This would be a major change

This problem has happened to me quite a few times, and is probably one of the most irritating in-game issues.

The only thing you would have to watch for is people requesting rifleman kits just for the ammo bags and leaving them. maybe just make riflemen specialist requestable instead.

if it included every kit in the game, it wouldnt be THAT long. definitly not long enough to really be a hassle to anyone.

IDK, I feel the rifleman should be requestable, if you have everything else requestable, why keep one set of kits out?
