Class limits

[Mr Carrot]

could you guys post here your IDEAL class limits and then il get onto stikky about it :)

[Nor]

Most maps seem okay tbh, but on omaha snipers defo needs restricted.

I would like to see no snipers on it really, would be loads more fun. But maybe 1 sniper per side ? 1/8 ratio. Also can auto team balance be put on, if there is such a feature. Eeek hope there is.

[Nerdy]

ok, it's an 8 a side server so my ideal setting would be:

1 sniper in 8 players

1 heavy weapon in 8 players

1 assault infantry in 4 players

any number of light infantry

if you use those settings it stops maps like omaha turning into sniper/machinegunner wars and maintains the authentic squad feel of the setting.

at the absolute most i would say 1 sniper to every 4 players and 1 hw to every 4 players

[Mr Carrot]

i think you can only set it out of 8

so you would want

2 snipers

2 heavy weps

4/3 assault

and 8 light infantry?

[Brocken]

hmmm...

2 snipers max

2 HW's max

4 assault max

4 light infantry max

[Bert Raccoon]

There should be no limits on light infantry

[Brocken]

ok then.. no limit on LI :E

[DarkAX]

Yeah no light infantry limit as they were the bulk of the ground forces in WW2 weren't they?

[Vigo]

My idea 1 sniper, 1 heavy per 8 players, the rest a mix of assault and light infantry, ratio of 2 light to 1 assault.

[Dent]

out of 8
1 sniper
1 HMG
2 assault
any number of light infantry

I believe this would be close to correct as far as history goes.

It should also make better games too.

For a 8v8 game my vote must go to having

1 Sniper per 8
1 Heavy per 8
2 Assault per 8
Unlimited Light

I don't think more than 2 Assault Inf as light Inf are the bulk of a team and 4 Inf would be just too many,some one whatch Saving private Ryan and see how many they have in a squad ! :P

for want of reading everyones post ... what dent said (cept with two snipers as i like being sniper :P )

i don't like the idea of auto team balance though, never have and never will do ... most people will swap sides to even things out if needed to and then the people that want to change can .. rather than being forced to swap which most people don't actually like :P

[BobARC]

I think u should be able to have 2 snipers per 8. 1 sniper is not enough, i have already seen squabbles with people wanting to snipe and not being able to, i imagine some low pinger will always join the server first and nab the sniper role and lots of people won't be able to do it. 2 snipers isn't that bad really, 1 in each bunker for omaha for example, can be dealt with.

[Brocken]

needs to be sorted out pretty soon. I was playing omaha before and all that was happening was the whole of the axis team would rush the beach and the whole of the allie team would be snipers... then the allie team started to moan because axis were rushin and they couldn't do anything...

[TheReaper]

same as dent

[-=®eKb®eKeN=-]

I think we only really need to control the snipers that much, having only one HMG is a bit over the top...
