Re: Quick Question!?!?
You request other kits from crates instead of spawning in with them, generally.
There we go.
There we go.

Re: Quick Question!?!?
Because armies tend not to give everyone a different gun 
Please read the manual, everything is explained there. The kit system especially is very complex, you really shouldn't jump right into the cold water. If you have any questions that the manual cannot answer, we'll of course help you out.
Not sure if that's still going on right now, but there was a project to introduce new players to PR as well, the thread might still be somewhere around here. But anyway, the manual should answer such questions.

Left clicking on the request kit menu generally gives you a scoped weapon, right clicking generally gives you a red-dot or ironsight-equiped weapon. Thought you ought to know.

Also, unconventional forces (militia, insurgents, taliban, hamas) have a wider variety of weapons for different classes, for obvious reasons.

First off.
Don't get all cocky with class's.
You can't always get sniper kit, OR the AT kit.
Reading the Manual helps 3400x better then advice in game. Although SOME will help, just read the manual.

What you think PR is:

It's not like you go to the grocery store at your local US ops base, pick out your favorite gun, roll it around in rails and attachments then send you off to iraq =P

XD sorry but this really isn't COD. Instead of wasting the threads with useless questions, how about you search and read
But honestly? off topic but screw COD and console gamers XD

1.RTFMN
2. Most conventional factions have the same weapon, in order to make training, supply, etc easier and more efficient.

Re: Quick Question!?!?
you generally spawn with the faction's standard weaponary, we are depicting regular (rather than 'special') forces in PR, thus the weapon choice is limited to those parameters.xXclusiivE wrote:Why is there only one gun for all the classes in the Deployment servers of PR? im so confused!
However specialised weaponary is requestable from vehicle depots, supply crates and APCs.
Some forces use varients of their primary weapon as their class weapons, e.g. the Brits use L86s as a marksman rifle which is a varient of the l85 (the primary weapon) whereas the USMC use m16s as their primary weapon and the M14 as their marksman rifle.
Each team has their distinct flavour

I've also changed the thread title to be more descriptive
please remember to make your thread title descriptive so the right people can answer your question
it also helps people with the same question find the information they seek

Re: Why is there a limited choice of weapons in PR?
Some of th trolls don't seem to realize there are also limited kits on the spawn screen when joining a COOP server. Maybe the OP just started playing in deployment and was busy learning stuff on COOP? That could possible give us a clue about his rather simple question.
This brings me to another point, since COD has become the disease of the gaming industry, it looks like many of the PR memebers have been infested too. Everyone just keeps pumping COD jokes around thinking hes cool
To mention few of the posters here: Dev1200, Maverick and Spec. Congratulations guys, you have been nominated for the troll of the year award, this is your day boys.

what's spec doing on that list? it appears to me that he was genuinely trying to help the guy.Brainlaag wrote: This brings me to another point, since COD has become the disease of the gaming industry, it looks like many of the PR memebers have been infested too.

anyway, I'm always surprised to see pages of same comments and trolling in response to questions like these, while in principle only one person should be needed to point the new guy to the manual. maybe next time?
