"The H-AT" snipe

[Spec]

MP7 and Skorpion? Isnt that a bit underpowered then for the Skorpion users? I mean, the uber modern MP7 compared to the Skorpion... i think the MEC could at least get an MP5, would fit with the G3's anyway.

But i'm not a dev^^

since the hat is so inaccurate now, is it nessasary to have them "ready" for 20 -30 secs before being able to fire? i mean, now you have to target your enemy long enough for them to drive away long befor you get to shoot. that in combiniton with a decent fall back weapon might have the kit used more toward the way it was ment too. i figure that infintry gets wasted with a rocket because you can reload it faster than dropping to your side arm and re-readying it.

All I know is when there's tank's roaming around you have to have your H-AT out because of the delay, and if I turn a corner and see a guy 50M away looking at me, im not going to waste time to pull out my pistol im just going to fire my rocket.

Im all for making H-AT have a rifle, more in fitting with RL

Yeah I have seen many videos, and pictures of the guys with the SRAW launcher drop the tube they fired and then sling around their M16A4 for combat. It's a AT gun for sure, but they do have more than pistols In real life.

I would also be for making a chopper pilot kit that has SMGs for self defense as it is vary standard in all militarizes to have SMGs on a rack in the chopper for the pilots to grab and use for personal Defense of them selfs in the event of close combat, during rescue missions, or even in the even they crash land some where.

I think Anti-Tank kit should get a rifle with 2+1 mags. so they can still engage infantry targets with teh rest of of a squad.

I think there is hardly ANY "HAT sniping" in v0.7 because of the new changes (deviation and not as many ammo sources), which is great

the H-AT really needs a gun rifle or something, the H-at takes like 10 days to shoot off a round as it is, its just wierd

Well, the main purpose of the kit is to finish armored vehicles off. When I had a HAT kit in any version (.5+) I needed squad backup to be effective, and if I were supplied and protected well enough I could get most of my targets. Since there were no problems with the kit in the previous version, the launcher should be slightly un-nerf'd to solve the problem, the pistol can stay as a symbol of fragility against hostile troops.

^ I really like the atmosphere when I had to guard a HAT guy or I had that kit. That one is the oddest and most tactical of all, I don't think they should get a carbine or rifle.

Otherwise: SMGs for the crewmen!
