Should cloakers be given another pistol slot?

[Professor Frink]

Bear in mind I never play as a cloaker... I think it would make being a cloaker a little more appealing. Being able to equip a pistol & a REK or any other combination w/o having to dip into the ol' inventory would give cloakers a little more influence in the outcome of a battle. It would also make Darklight Vision much more important. I know some in the cloaking ranks wouldn't want this as they might like to keep their number few. Just an idea. Bring on the flames, I can already feel them.

[LesserShade]

I dunno. This was brought up during beta and I think the general consensus was that a stealther that could switch between grenades and pistols quickly would be too uber.

[EarlyDawn]

Yes.

[Doppler]

No.

[Rbstr]

infils would become to good, they would no longer have to dig though the inventory to switch thier slot, it woudl allow them to hack, or laz, and when spotted begin ot shoot right away. Thats kinda overpowering, as they are invisable and they can hide while they switch loads

[Kaymon]

Considering Infs are ubernerfed right now, I think it'd be more than useful.

[BUGGER]

No/yes.

The extra slot for REK's only.

[Jagd]

That would be awesome, and I don't know how anyone could think it would unbalance cloakers! If you've played as an infiltraitor for any length of time you know how easy it is to get fragged cause your fumbling with your inventory. Being invisible is just not enough because of how many dark light users are out there, and of course our most hated enemy-- the plasma nade.

id take back my inf suit from beta /signed

[flypengy]

I've always thought that an extra slot was needed that carried a rek exclusively.

[Firefly]

Yes, and give the infil a dual-weapon ability. Two pistols baby, Perfect Dark style.

[Professor Frink]

good idea. the extra slot could be for REK/MED/ACE. that way there would be no grenade/pistol wielding cloakers.

[Jagd]

There is no need to nerf a pistol holster by limiting it to a REK. How can you panzies be afraid of a slightly buffed cloaker? We'll still have no armor or heavy weapons, so your cheezy insta-kills will keep rolling in. *sigh*

[Professor Frink]

Hey man I'm trying to help you out! Even if you couldn't equip a pistol or grenade, you have to admit that just having a REK easily available would make you faster & more versatile. And its pansies with an S.

i agree switching to hack a door, just as it is opened by a enemy is jus plain annoying
