Why are loadouts so limited with spawning?

[Lord Tomiak]

I dont understand the logic behind this mechanic. Why cant we spawn with loadouts on any point regardless of supply points? Mobile HQ is also getting this limit on next update. How is team supposed to do effective offensives on heavily defended bases, when we cant spawn as dedicated specialists like machine gunners or grenadiers? With this limit, the team cohesion and rallying is almost impossible

Probably to mimic actual combat situations where you just don't have an endless supply of whatever you want, wherever you want it. It makes you think about where you need to distribute supplies. I personally like it. It has made our group slow down and play smarter.

You can spawn with custom loadouts on deployed Radios as long you have enabled the Custom Loadout on it and have enough supplies to afford it.

I could agree that the game could have some pre-dfined "classes" so you can opt for it, but I'm no sure about that, since I can see everybody picking sniper/DMR or GL always.

That limit on the Command Truck is a must, otherwise you have a spam with people armed to the teeth with no impact on the "finance" of the game.

ATM people don't care for supplies and pick up everything they can with no consequences. Thats about to change (due the new weight system aswell), IMO, for the better.

AT and Grenadier classes should be pre-defined and limited. problems fixed. Because Snipers and Machine gunners cause no problems whatsoever.

Just like you, I totally forgot that we have the Arsenal Truck, which was useless until now!
To have a complete task force now you have to have a proper convoy: Command Truck, Arsenal Truck and a Supply one.

I find it fair enough and like that decision to make the team "work for it".
