Insurgent ammo pick ups respawn

Post by PLODDITHANLEY »

As far as I know the insurgent ammo pick ups don't respawn. Inevitably that leads to the situation that after 30 minutes no more trucks, tbh a insurgent logy squad would be very useful - but rare to find players prepared to do that.
It would certainly make insurgent ambushes more fun and safer if you didn't have to return to the cache to re arm, but make life even harder for blufor.
Just one on a ten minute spawn....

having a brief look at the ramiel GPO, it seems that there's 2 ammo techies, one doesn't respawn the other one has 5 minutes respawn.


it's just based on the map, though i agree there should be at least one that respawns


edit: lashkar has at least one on 5min

basrah has 2, no respawns

My quick thoughts. No respawn explains well why I hardly ever see those things. Definitely one respawnable ammo truck for every map. After all its just ammo what they provide. Bomb cars and garys are far more profitable and they do respawn. Ammo truck isnt that useful thinking that it should be as a no respawn asset. Humble technical can be deadly for whole squad and they respawn (too?) quickly. Balance compromise=Make ammo truck spawnable, but raise techie spawn time.

Potilas;

I am not suggesting loads of the things, I think it's hard enough for blufor on public as it is. In the perfect world ins would have two or three guys who keep ALL the vehicles operational as long as possible, the Ammo trucks are valuable as hell to insurgents, at the same time bluefor should always work together.

But back to reality above of a sniper using it for transport....

Just one that respawns 5/10mins on each map would suffice.

Thanks for looking animal mother at the GPO stuff.

These can be adjusted server side, IIRC, so reality might be different.
