This sounds very very nice indeed.

The changes sound good to me, maybe with the exception of having to use crates to request kits. But then, I barely request kits as it is, so I could live with getting to use them even more rarely.

I do hope that we'll see plenty of APCs now that they are the primary transportation vehicle. A lot of people will have to adjust to the idea of being transported in APCs, and I predict a lot of rage as APC crews and infantry squads disagree on what a safe spot to drop infantry is.

I do hope that APCs aren't entirely relegated to a role of land choppers. My fear is that doing anything other than driving back and forth between main and combat will be frowned upon, and infantry won't be able to call upon an APC to support them with fire. I understand the idea of not making APCs light tanks, but I don't wanna see it go to the extreme the other way.

I don't think it will be like that at all. Infantry will still be able to spawn at rallies and FOBs, this will just make the APCs 'get in the fight' and not be some sort of standoff light tank that just covers only from afar. APCs will now be part of a spearhead needed to get in there and provide support for infantry since they will need kit support and transport to far objectives.

I still want to know if Jeeps will spawn at FOBs still, or if that was taken out as well. I believe there was talk about AT emplacements at FOBs though?

I'm only seeing Ural trucks here. Will there be an Anglo-American canvas covered truck as well? Or will everyone be using the Ural in 0.85 (if only temporarily for some)

Thats probably just a lack of testers at the time the screenshot was taken, nothing really important

General Dragosh · 01-01-2009, 11:15 PM

Wow, im really looking forward to this...

No more Super Engie

But i aint giving up

Skodz · 01-01-2009, 11:18 PM

Hmmm... these are lot of changes...

No more kit request at Rallypoints and forward operations base ?
No more humvee, landrover, etc. ? Why, is this even realistic ? I am no expert but light jeeps seems very popular in modern "assymetric" warfare...
I agree with the logistic only big truck tho but hopefully you are gonna remove the lil engi jeeps to replace it by the new logistic truck and make it so there are more jeeps then truck.

Sorry unable to edit...

If you guys remove completely jeeps (5 min respawn) and make it APC only (10 min respawn)

We already have problems with vehicles wasting, now we will have real tea party at main waiting for 1 apc to spawn for the entire team...
