What's inappropriate about it? As long as it's worse than the teamwork equivalent (and it looks like it will be) I fail to see an issue.

It's automatic.

I do admit that so long as it's ONLY happening from the customization, and not anything else,that's better than BF3.

Though I am also against having to choose between these things. Flares should always be carried, for example, but simply with limited ammunition. But I'm only saying that for the principle of it, I'm aware no one cares.

There's critiquing like you and Stardouser do, and then there's half this thread which is "OH MY GOD THIS IS TERRIBLE IT'S LIKE BF3 SO IT'S TERRIBLE OH MY GOD IT'S NOT PS1".

The one vehicle I'd want regenerating health for is The Galaxy considering it's support and it's an incentive to get people to use it. Considering vehicles look to die really easy in this game and with the amount of people that will be in one battle, we don't want the galaxy being useless.

I've got no problem with regenerating health personally, BF3 has a nice balance of that and repair/healing. I mean your health doesn't regen fast and your vehicles regen even slower, so you still need a Medic or Eng.

That's my stance but I'm a regen health person over med packs in general. Obviously you need to balance it like BF3 has done so well, however I don't want to need someone else to have enjoyment out of the game, I want to just enjoy playing with someone else to enjoy the game. As soon as you start making strict requirements then you end up having the situation like WoW had where you aren't allowed into groups or raids because you are not a certain class, then I'm punished for playing what I like to play.

And there I was actually about to read the thread. Is it really all just "OMG we got some BF3 hate stuck in our ass when the product is already almost in beta"?


But on topic though - I for one don't like vehicle auto-repair. It promotes bailing and not caring about the thing you drive. That's a bad thing, in case you don't know. And that's absolutely independent of whether you have it on by default or as a mod option, which it is now.

It's not that bad, but there's a lot of it.

[Dreamcast]

Whats the problem?


Seems slow like hell, if a mosquito finds u is gg.



I don't see the difference between getting a cert to repair ur galaxy which will probably require a person to sacrafice something and somebody repairing the galaxy.....Either way ur gonna lose time flying around in circles in case u don't get shot down.

Hell it might be better to get an actual engineer to repair u since it will be faster.

[Stardouser]

Oh, by the way. Since everyone likes to say "it's Alpha" for the TTK being so low, I'll play devil's advocate in the reverse and remind you all of the possibility that in Beta they could increase the regen BECAUSE it's so uselessly low right now. And then all our complaints would become valid.

So, everyone saying it's OK because it's so low, remember that that's as long as it stays low.

In the state it is now, with autorepairs, you just use it like this:

A) Air-Vehicle
B) Light Assault
C) Afterburner
D) Gogo fighterwhoring, bail when you're screwed, use your jetpack to land safely, keep killing, suicide, repeat.

Mosquito-farming Mk2, improved...

[Purple]

im going to be taking flairs anyway.

[PredatorFour]

You gotta remember that every gal you come across in PS 2 wont all be able to auto repair themselves. Its not like BF3 where every fighter/chopper auto reps, you actually have to cert it and sacrifice something for it.

[SoNaR]

maybe auto-repair is just in alpha???

[cellinaire]

Kill-cam ? will be removed

Vehicle auto repair? can be easily removed, but have we even tested it? No



(for Nick : clearly you're not the only veteran and player who really want this game to succeed. Right?)
