There is NO problem with the rate of fire on the OCIW/GL... If one guy fires 12 nades at me because he sees me, more power to him, it's a weapon at his disposal.
The REAL problem comes in when you have a 4v4 cb and 3 of their guys have GL's and then you have 36 nades within seconds. THIS is what what GL-spamming is to me. A flurry of nades- not by one guy, but by a TEAM- within seconds when I havent even been seen. It's just spraying an area and hoping you get lucky.
Almost makes me wish we had kit restrictions like in First to Fight, where only one man can take a certain kit.
Imagine a 5v5 where each guy could only take 1 kit.... 1 OICW, 1 OICWGL, 1 SA80/frags, 1 Socom, 1 SA80 rockets.... in my opinion it might play more tactically considering the importance of where you placed your sensors and your GL man.
not that I am championing for this to be done, but what do you guys think if this was an option?
We discussed this in the GhR meeting after season X had ended... we discussed it as a seperate gametype but from all I remember it was sortof a forgotten idea in the Admin section. Maybe I'm wrong?
I don't remember the exact requirements we discussed, but if an admin would be kind enough to post the logs we recorded of this issue (the AA Style gametype) it would be greatly appreciated.
