Question on Light AT in .7

So i heard that Light At reloading will be limited in .7 that 1 shot and you cant reload? Is that true? I know that the At4 cant be reloaded and getting them Ammo bags and Vehicles is not realistic but what about from supply crates and support vehicles? Will that still be there? Or shoot it once and no more rockets unless you request another Light at? Could the devs clear this up?






Btw i heard the dev's are looking for a Replacement for the Rpg-7 for the mec? Well i got one how about the Rpg-18? It's a straight forward copy of the M72, It was used in the USSR vs Afghanistan war and it will only require a slight reskin.

well in real life you cant reload an AT4 its a one time use rocket like the old LAW. you just throw it away and grab another. so in the game when you "reload" at a hummer, i think its more representing you grabbing another AT4 as opposed to actually reloading. An RPG can be reloaded, im not not sure about the Brits or PLA rockets but they look like one time use as well.

Well I can appreciate the idea but only once have I ever seen un-realistic use of AT4 supplies.

We had two humvees up in the hills on EJOD and L-AT men. Must have fired off about 20 AT4's ...possibly more. Maybe if you just limit the A.T4's coming from the humvees or supplys to something more reasonable. I'm quite sure that a humvee wouldn't be carrying 9 AT4 rounds.

I'm positive that the APC and jeep ammo supply does run out; rally points give out unlimited ammo I think

great... even more useless.

At least Anti air has decent splash damage, that thing is innaccurate as hell (unguided) but you'll shred the people inside a car.

1 shot light at? it better get a boost.

Perhaps the light AT kit should get a scoped assault rifle to make it a bit more attractive for players.

I'm sorry i meant Re-arm Light at not reload.(sorry confuse my terms sometimes) Devs tell me where will be able to re-arm our light at in .7?

I don't think they will make them "unreloadable". AT4, and launchers like that, are easy to carry and should therefore be easy to be kept in transport vehicles. And after all, the light AT would be useless without being able to reload.

Well if they are spamming from Humvees... kill the humvees?

Resupply should limited in futur versions of the game
humvees cant ressuply a whole army.
And for the thing about wrecks, we should try to do like in BF: Vietnam
Give the engeneers some kind of tol to take apart the wreck.

If you havent noticed most vehicles like the humvees run out of ammo pretty quickly, IIRC the only sources of unlimted ammo are ammo caches, APCs and repair cars.

Maybe, but its not really noticable ingame.
