I checked the Already Suggested Suggestions thread, searched, didn't find a thing, soo...

First little thing:
Why not make engineer a limited class? Having the magic wrench, C4, and an AT mine, I don't think you can have a squad full of 'em... maybe 5 per team? It would solve the Magic Bridge Repair issue (In my opinion, considering that it would take that much more effort to get a kit), and they would be appreciated that much more...

Second:
Just something to point out, but you can resupply field dressings from an ammo bag... So having an Auto-Rifleman is equivalent to having a medic, if one could say that the gun balances out for a lack of a defibrilator...
Is it hard-coded that you can resupply anything from one ammo point, and there are no classifications thereof?

If it isn't hard-coded, why not have the Medic Pack resupply bandages?

Please don't hurt me, I'm new!

Why mke Engeneer a limited class ? I see them barely running around. Its more like there are not enought

The lack of frags limits that class enough for me. I prefer mobile firepower. C4 and mines are not mobile.

Well, I just thought it slightly unrealistic that one could have a whole squad of engineers... Repairing away at various things... like the bridges...

Maybe only have 2 per squad...

It was just this thought I had...

What about the bandage resupply thing? Is that hardcoded?

Why not have a dedicated engineer squad? If anything it would be more realistic than one or two engineers in an assault squad. I'm sure it happens, but I don't think mechanics take part in bunker assaults after being air dropped 1500 meters back very often.

There is enough engineers on the field, but I've never seen too many of them...

I think that natural selection theory also applies to PR.

Bridge repair itself is something to talk about.

This is wrong impression. The time matters. You will be able to heal people faster with medic bag than with a field dressings.

Yup, spot on. Engineers (at least in this country) are part of an entirely different corps, nevermind army, brigade, company or squad. Very unlikely for them to mix with regular infantry in the way the do in game.

you have a point in the first one, but these are really essential classes that are actually rare in PR. keep it as it is

another good point, i belive there is some tought going in to removing/nerfing the ammo bag, but as of now it takes time to reload field dressings/ammo bags and forces the gunner to go under cover. it evens it self out.

yeah have u ever tried healing urself fully with just a ammo bag. it takes like 5 min which is a loonggg time. in some cases, id rather just bleed out than have to go through that

Actually... 60 seconds, tops. I've actually done the 'ammo bag heal' quite a bit...
