Firearms supply for the Soviet ;)
« on: June 01, 2012, 12:56:03 PM »
The US paratrooper gave me this idea. You see the US paratrooper has that ability to call the air-re-supply. It not only leaves you with a pack of fuel and ammo, but also give you 2 mountable weapon, a Maxim MG and a mortar, and this can be shared with the team. This gave me an idea, what if we can share weapons like them, but we can't just make the Soviet just US, we need to differentiate them to make things interesting.

OK, let me explain, we add one more upgrade in the Armory or HQ called the "extra infantry weapon supply". After upgrade it, we can then buy extra infantry weapon by using ammo. Rifles, SMGs, light MGs, you can buy only 1 at a time, and it will just appear outside the armory or HQ. And they can be shared amounts the friends in multiplayer mode. For examply, when your friend is playing as the US, and their Paratrooper has no light MGs, and you can buy one for them  ;)  This is going to be so interesting!!  ;)

Also I have an alternative suggestion as well  :)
Infantry salvaging:
It's mainly for the Conscripts. You see, the German engineers has the salvaging ability to extract ammo from the wreckage of vehicles. So I was thinking what if our Conscripts has the same ability. But instead of salvaging ammo from wreckage, they salvage rifle or random infantry weapon from dead corps. This would be so interesting, isn't it!! It will be just like the "Enemy under the gate".   ;D

Very Cool, heh? What do you guys thing??  ;)

Why are these things needed? Are soviets too weak in teamgames without it?

Thanks for replying me so fast sir.
No, that is not what I am saying. It has nothing to do with the Soviet being weak or not. It just make things so interesting. Share weapons amounts friends. And to differentiate Soviet more  ;)

Of course not, they can only have:
TT-33, Mosin-Nagan M1938, Mauser, or one MP-40 when they are at their luckiest moment.

soviets are good as they are. i already find them probably the most interesting faction out there. they do not need this and i believe should not have this. also ,since it seems you have an abundance of ideas, i would suggest you curb your ideas until othseer is out. this is the devs main priority atm, and as such do not have the time for other things. i know some even see the soviets as a completed work, excepting the model rework of course. i thank you for your suggestion, but i don't think it has a place in this mod.


OH FOR CRYING OUT LOUD AND RAPE CEASERS GHOST IN FRONT OF THE CHILDREN!?
