Move US repair station in muttrah.

Post by Sprats »

You might ask why? what is the problem? Well, one of the reasons is that APCs get advtange there, it is easy to get to it, it is in very open, not fair for MEC. Like we were in 3BTRs chased down LAV, and it defended itself in repair station, all of us died. Fair? No.

If MEC has got docks, repair station bugs itself, so both teams can use it.

So my suggestion would be to move it somewhere in d2 , behind the hills, making a new to there, and to make larger area (i dunno how it is called) of penalty for MEC not to enter it.

Say what you wanna say and if you agree say YES, thanks for your time.

i'm sure this has been said before somewhere but yes it does need moving

and yeah i think that area could be made more flat so that you can also set up a FOB there and land troops there better also have some fortifications so it makes it a FOB its-self

Just go behind one of the containers next to the repair station (or far) and ambush it out of the area of repair, something like this:

Brown is BTR and Blue is LAV.

The LAV goes down the containers. 2 BTRs engage him while the last BTR, hidden behind the LAV, prevents it from getting repaired at the repair station. TMWRK FTW!
Guys, when a new player comes, just answer his question and go on your merry way, instead of going berserk! It's THAT simple! :D

Not a bug...

Who ever controls docks controls the repair station... It its neutral then both teams can use it. If MEC has docks then only MEC can use it (just like their repair staition, rearm, repair and request kits.)

Also there is a place to shoot the BTR so it goes down in 2-3 seconds but I wont tell you where.

Or give the area around the depo a DoD, the BTRs should have no business there anyway.

moving the Repair depot a little way north wouldn't hurt.

I don't see why not. It's a repair station, and the MEC control the area that houses said repair station... seems rather logical to me...

Highly disagree with you bro.

If 3 BTRs cannot handle a single LAV, then those 6 players (hopefully in the same sq) need a heck a lot more training and therefore should not be using those BTRS to begin with as they cost the team tickets.

BTRs as any other apc should ONLY move as far as the troops move, one must have troop support not going it alone into their area where one can easily get shot by a HAT, mine, apc, cobra, etc.

Same applies to LAV, they are there to support troop and vise versa. Not to chase BTRs all the way back to their main area.

In my view, the repair station is fine were it is. The alternative of placing it on the hill and making that area an UCB would make the carrier obsolete. This map is good as it is although I don't agree with moving MEC's UCB from the castle, but that's another subject :mrgreen:

I honestly wish the castle would be their main again. =) Nothing cooler than seeing USMC's storm the castle....

xD Would be a perfect place for fastropes xD hahaha. (kidding)

Err this also is on a server case to case. Base rape rule.... if thats supported on the server like hardcore, engaging an enemy on a rep station is a kick/ban.

so...

Thats how we deal with it on Hardcore servers.


Either than that, the only reason why i would say yes to moving the rep station is the idiotic HAT sniping hat goes on from the Boat on a repairing APC on servers allowing base rape.

The repair station is not a base, it's part of a beachhead. The problem with the repair station isn't abuse by force attacking it, it's abuse by forces defending it, who use it to constantly repair their APC.


I think the repair station should be moved farther north, couldn't hurt anything, and forcing the LAVs further back from the flag to repair/rearm can only help.

If by moving it further north you mean moving it further north "within" the city then I'd beg to differ because if this is so, then the repair station would become more "rape-able" and the MEC force will be able to overrun it quicker. The repair station is there because it’s the last stand for the Marines on land so naturally it has to be there instead of going all the way back to the carrier for repairs.

Now, I do see the argument of moving it one grid to the right at the base of the mountain which is not a bad idea at all except that the issue would be retouching the map, which I don’t know if any dev is keen on doing at this time… XD

My only thought on this is that war is not always fair.
I like it the way it is. Gives the US a harder time. To compensate for Cobra perhaps?
