Should squad named assets have privilege over others?

[LeoBloom.]

This is really one of the main issues with PR for me. Patch .75 fixed everything that bothered be before, with the suppression effects, and the overall cleanliness of the text (no text spam). However, I've written a thread about the calling squads (namely air) where people ignored it even though I waited for the planes to spawn, etc. For the most part, even if a squad calls tanks or other armor, there are still some left over for the other people. If people call the attack helicopters, its usually been possible for me as a pubbie to join someone in an attack helo (although we seem to get shot down easily most of the time). The problem comes to aircraft which only fits one person and there is only one plane which takes a good time to respawn. There has to be some established system for PR for calling aircraft.

i strongly disagree. Your saying that if a a10 spawns after 20 mins and someone who was there first blows it up on runway they deserve to have taken that a10?

is pr had some kind of ranking system on all servers like the evo ones in arma. whereas you had to have a certain amount of experience before your allowed to take certain vehicles. With the time people spend trying to get that rank by the time they get it they will be a very experienced pilot/tanker.

This is my opinion is the best solution that would work for everybody.

All squads should have a custom name

You'll generally find me in a squad names 'eng inf vo' party for the reason taht non of this asset right crap comes my way.

I agree that naming a squad a particular asset gives the rights of that asset to the squad at the start of the map...unless they prove themselves undeserving of that right which is decreed by higher powers. i.e. the server admin/operator or the CO.

I like them. Generally the guys who create them know what they are doing, and if not then they can stuff it. What I hate is a well skilled dedicated chopper squad not being able to function, because random nubs nick the assets, then crash them. Even if they don´t, they should in my opinion be in the dedicated squad, have good comms with them etc...

[GR34]

Well Yes and no. If the squad is like air and not doing shiz then No. But if the squad is for example Air support then Yes they should get 1st Priority over Support planes

Everyone has equal share of all assets and there should be no rule. It's a community cooperation thing. Voluntary, not mandatory.

Everyone should realize that sharing is necessary to play PR. Yeah, maybe you're good with the tank/helo. The problem is that people who make armor/air squads often spend a ridiculous amount of time camping for that asset, rather than being really useful. You should be prepared to use assets well, not focused on playing the game via one asset. Each of the assets offers its own unique experience, and that experience is not, and should not be, limited to the first person to make a squad with an appropriate name.

Yep, if it's available and no one is using it, use it! It's disheartening to see lots of people camp out on the airfield rather than actually helping out and capping flags.

Its a game, and unthill we get a game with MANDATORY tests and drills and whatnot for EATCH AND EVRY role that you can possibly think of in the game enviroment, Its first come first served..

I do admitt that I personaly get wery wery ticked off when some random "Stortingspolitiker" (Read, tard/nublet/1337rnotmeguy) makes a squad named after some asset or shitty movie, and then goes on the biggest WHINE in your lifetime when you promtly gets it before he does, before he c4`s your and the other poor sobs that piled in becuse they know that your a reliable pilot..

Il leave my trademark comment "WANKER!" and swap sides so i can legaly showe my spade upp in the private parts of that idiot.. Becuse when you absolutely, 100% got to kill somone, Its a backflip spade trow to the face!
