The officer's pistol is awesome...

[Rapid12]

Could the pistols have red dot sights on, like in Terminator?

Yes and I also wants Fat Man from Fallout3 think about going around nuking every living shit on the server.

I'm a guilty lover of the pistol, and sometimes I snatch up an Officer kit just for it. That is if no one needs the kit I'm currently using of course. I'm not dumb enough to drop a HAT kit for a pistol.

Party smoke and the GLTD are also sweet bonuses of the Officer kit. That kit is the definition of Squad Leader win.

i've noticed regular army guys can take like 3 pistol bullets, turn around and kill you ;(
i haven't had the pistol sprees in .85 that i used to have.

I personally think it could be removed. If you're getting rid of the pistol for the pilot for gameplay reasons (and therefor sacrificing realism to stop pilots ramboing) then it might not be a bad idea to do it for the SL.

Just thinking aloud of course *runs*

Oh my God. What the hell is up with these **** who want to remove every single weapon in the game?

First they take the pilot kits gun away... then the spec-ops kit... now they want to nerf the officer kit?

Seriously, go away... We don't need more classes nerfed.

Medics shouldn't get rifles either dude.

I'm just saying.

And yes, the pistol is exciting to use. Especially in those moments where you're totally desperate, out of ammo and outnumbered. That thing has gotten me out of one or two of those.

Personally I see the pistol as the ironsights part of the officer kit.

IMO all scopes can suck mah balls and I very rarely play officer nowadays because of it.

(It takes 4 hits to kill with the pistol :/)

Amen...

[SuperTimo]

skorpion is this best officer side arm

What the hell is up with people taking an offensive tone with other forum users?! Go away, we don't need more people who don't follow simple rules?

Joking aside - what's the point in using **** when everyone knows that you're still being offensive with your tone? Calm down a tad, yeah?


As for your point, well - pilot pistols removed for good reason, likewise specops kit. Officers on the other hand are fully entitled to their pistols and it would serve no gameplay purpose to remove them - they're realistic - so they'll remain, I suspect. Stop fretting.

But combat medics...

[HughJass]

They removed the pistol for the pilot because he would bail from the aircraft and go Ramboing behind enemy lines, taking out FOB's and such.

Yeah, just take a look at my sig.

Anyways the pistol is my love, i always try and get a officer kit when in the field.

[barbdwyer22]

Heh, US medics have had weapons since WWII. Combat Medic in the Army is an Infantry MOS I believe, just like the Navy Corpsman (USMC Medics). That is why Corpsman wear our uniforms and don't have silly red crosses on their helmets or on armbands.

You are the reason the SF kit doesn't exist anymore. You pretty much said you like trying to be l33t and are into lone wolfing not something that is looked kindly upon in this game.

But you are new so hopefully you will play the game it was intended.

Lonewolfing with the special forces kit was aright as long as you did it for intel and taking out assets on lightly guarded, because not game, areas.
