Alot of the time it doesn't actually get them any anyway, alot of will just have something to whine about cos the games hard, and their super mega special kit hasn't warranted them some sort of invulnerability to everything.

Nothing to micromanage just a glance and a button press could cut down on some of the moron-hood you encounter as a squadleader. Would be nice if the PLAYERNAME and the KIT were gold instead of blue for easy reading at a glance.

HOWEVER, the problem with PR now is not that retards run off with limited kits. No, the problem is the ridiculous reallocation time in .8 As I've said before 10minutes is unreasonably long--especially for kits that are common on the battlefield like LMGs, Grenadiers, etc. If the reallocation time wasn't so long then obtaining these kit wouldn't anywhere near the issue it is right now, so even if mr retard grabbed a spec ops kit and died, your teamed wouldn't be screwed over for so long.

Certainly would cut down on some of the moronhood. Just this week I can think of two examples where I had to chide a squad member for choosing off the wall kits in the squads I was leading.

real Example 1 Qwai river: Tow humvee squad - we are mopping up moving very fast. Some kid dies and comes back with a marksman kit. I said "Are you kidding, I hope you can run 35 miles per hour"


real Example 2 Muttrah: two nights ago mech infantry squad a guy dies respawns at carrier and flys back to us with a Littlebird.


It would be nice to have some more control to prevent extreme examples like the above.


Posters here seem so worried about bad squad leaders, there is an 84% more chance of getting a bad squad MEMBER since they are the other 5/6 slots in a squad.

-You're a noob if you change your kit when you're medic. And new SLs will learn.


ok do you realize how frustrating it is to be the bullet magnet medic for 6 HOURS? thats all i EVER get to do

oh yes and the page up page down is good cause you can basically give it to the dudes who did not just come in and more to the dues you have been talking to for a while and are Prudy darn sure they have not been in your squad for 30 mins just to get a sniper kit (what is so grand bout it anyways?)

But seriously, python can do this, just like the request build order and all that stuff.

Im actually suprised by people who think the medic kit sucks coz hey, they are all protecting you

And about the Page up and down thing...in the past 4? pages ive seen nothing new except a general acceptence of the idea and the guys against it reanimating arguements that are too commonly used.
