Oh. Nevermind. Got it. It's much more usefull as a scout/light infantry then a sniper. I nearly killed an insurgent that was 2 yards away from me and he had an AK.
And i liek teamwork. I was reportign in things like "city clear." "Enemy vehicle." or "Insurgent at checkpoint." (this was Al barash extraction version.)

Or were you expecting a server admin to say "oh, come over to my server and I'll kick whoever has the DMR so that you can get it"?
Just curious is all.
LOL! No. I was basicly asking "Does anyone know a server with unlimited kits?"
Who would kick someone just cause someone else wanted the Marksman kit?

I would kick you from my squad in a heartbeat if all you did was grab the sniper kit everytime.
BS
If a sqaud leader requsted me to get a kit, of course i would! Unless it was full ofcourse. Then that wouldn't be my fault. If they don't, unless it's american, i'll mostlikely request support, AA, or AT.
Anyway, off to go play PR now.

I have a rather off-topic post about snipers/marksman that you can read about
here! I have a post where I whine about marksman/sniper that actually i It's not that of topic that you would think.
On topic. Alot of people go for the marksman and sniperkit thinking that they are "all that" (my post argues this). If you are one of the very few, just go idle a wee bit and wait for them to die. Just TAB, note their names and wait for them to foolishly die stupidly and then request kit and do what they could not.
It should not take you longer than about 3-4 minutes.

dont waste your time worrying about trying out the request guns, just find a standard kit you enjoy and use that, If you happen to pass a rally point just check every now and then. Usually at the start of rounds is a bad time, try checking TAB for lots of players greyed out meaning they are waiting to respawn, odds on one of them was a sniper/marksman.
The Chinese supply soldier comes with a scoped weapon that is every bit as effective as the M14.
Jes sayin..

G3SG/1 (marksman's rifle), G3A3(A4?)Z (rifleman) and G3A3(A4?)TGSZ (grenadier) are all on the way.
The MEC are going to be so awesome when they get thier new rifles. The rifleman kit will have a better DMR than the British DM!

For some reason, M14 has much higher damage than G3.

I am able to get the M14 every once in a while, and usually do pretty good with it.
The one thing I don't like about it is the very LOUD and distinct report when fired. I get this feeling that every MEC/PLA/Insurgents ears perk up every time I fire it and begin the hunt for ME!!!

well I have to say its hard to get the support kit.
And when u get it or lets say other kits thats hard to get u get killed at once.
I have to say plz remove the request kit for Support, maby limit it for each sqaud insted.
cuz I want to play support, and each squad should have 1 I think.
insted we only runing around with rifels or the closest u can get the support is the M4, its the only one with that have the rate off fire.
I want to be abel to spawn in on SQL as support not request it.
sad but true.

if you are dying after three minutes or more with a kit it is reserved for you, meaning that you can instantly re-request it.
also, what you ask for is not possible right now - this system is only one currently able to limit kits

It has the exact same damage template bub.

It just sounds cleaner and through the scope it looks better than the G3.
Can't wait to see the G3 sniper variant.

Odd. I always have a pretty easy time of getting it.
But you don't need a support kit.
Just the A-10. I'll keep feeding you attack commands
