Alright, so there won't be as many of them, but it's still annoying that people who want/need them will miss out. I think there needs to be a higher degree of player intervention with this, perhaps a vote system to overhaul kit abusers or something, I don't really know how the testing's going with it but I have a feeling there're going to be problems with it. I guess you wouldn't pick up on it seeing as all the testers are kind, sharing folks.

i was thinking that.

if they could randomise the kit limiting so different players have the kit available on different rounds...

No matter wehat we do there are going to be problems with not letting people take whatever they want whenever they want - with some people, some of the time at the very least.

We'll do our best to address as many of those problems as is feasible.

There's HUGE problems with "rank" as an access to kit, so that's not gonna happen.

We're increasing the "start delay" settings for each round to avoid some of the "first in" problems.

Just learn to like the unlimited classes, and love the limited classes whwne they are available to you

I think we will look at some kind of "kit hogging" prevention system, but need to think that through.

cool just so that people don't feel forced out because of the limitations of their hardware effecting their choises.

Getting other people left kits will get us kill, uhh like we are getting of the road here, is it that realistic?, like someother m8 said here. Army Ranger ure new around here dont u, they wont give u a release day, that had been discussed here a lot of time (i was a victim of it), just seat tight and drink pure alcohol to burn it inside, LOL, i feell u.

a long start delay would be awesome!

usually i like to make a breif plan of action before the round starts, but i never have time, hell i dont even have time to take a piss.

like a 2 minute start delay would be great!! give us folks a breather who dont die very much during the round!
