Re: Insurgents feel too weak with the new emplacement nerfs
Quote:
Insurgents suck because they're too weak offensively and can only reliably rely on suicide tactics. Whether it be civis or bombcars. Insurgents are stuck playing defense 99% of the time. I know it's insurgency but sometimes you gotta bring the fight to the enemy's doorstep. Other opfor factions are much more flexible and dynamic and can be both on the offense or the defense. Hamas, ARF, Chechen rebels, etc. That's what makes them all much more fun than the insurgents. Even on layers with little to no vehicles. Insurgents as a faction need highly clustered urban maps with broken up sight lines and lots of cover and shelter to be competitive. As soon as they leave that comfort zone, they're as good as dead. It's a pain in the ass to defend caches outside of the city center on basrah, karbala, and shadadah. Fallujah is 50/50 because it's so small. And because it's so small, armor can shoot across half the map with near impunity. It's a real bitch to root out americans camping the hospital on fallujah. Worse yet is if a cache spawns there. Bomb cars will not make it to the hospital without getting discovered and lit up. SPG techies are rare but too valuable to waste on fob assault unless there's armor nearby which almost always takes priority. SPG emplacements which was my number one way of rooting out entrenched americans, take way too long to set up and can be discovered very easily. With the ammo nerf it's so much worse now. And insurgents dont always have access to area attacks on all maps. | |

Re: Insurgents feel too weak with the new emplacement nerfs
Yeah, because that worked out so well for SQUAD.
I quite prefer the fact that you are not a paying customer who is always right. The Dev's have the leeway to take or leave any feedback such as yours. They have the option to completely ignore your baseless accusations and insinuations, and can focus on their passion without being bothered by the opinions of a rare few individuals such as yourself who spend more time complaining about the way things have evolved than learning how to "git gud" like everyone else. |

Re: Insurgents feel too weak with the new emplacement nerfs
Is too much to ask to be able to request a rifleman kit with ammo for a single team? The dev teams obstinacy in this regard is puzzling, nonsensical and at times enraging.

Re: Insurgents feel too weak with the new emplacement nerfs
What obstinacy? Nobody from the team even addressed your main point in this thread. Nobody said we wouldn't do it.
A separate kit request menu for factions which need it is on the TODO list. We have very, very few people working on UI. If you want it to be implemented sooner, consider learning UI coding. HUD code is simple, it is open source and can be found in Code:
Project Reality BF2/mods/pr/content/menu_server.zip\hud\hudsetup A list of HUD commands in the engine for reference. |

Re: Insurgents feel too weak with the new emplacement nerfs
I remember playing on a 24/7 basrah server! And I played a lot. Can't remeber server name or which version it was running but it was around that time. Was it your server? It was THE Best Thing Ever! Always full, always fun. I still remember insurgent spawn points all over the map, molotovs, stealing enemy sniper and hat kits, etc., etc. Good times
