all they need to do is to only give the commander the ability to drop a vehicle once it has be requested forShotYourSix wrote:
I've had jeeps dropped plenty of times when I really needed one (sometimes they were enemy jeeps). I like the addition. If they can work out the glitching I say keep it.

Well, I wouldn't mind keeping it in, but make it similar to the Supply Crate. When you drop it, it moves. But..don't just make it drift north like the Crate does, give it a variable for direction.

It also lessens the ability for it to be used as "Cartillery". Simple solution for an overdramatized problem.
I feel that the 'add a random drift' thing is way too arbitrary and not fool-proof enough to fix the hotel glitch problem. It addresses the cartillary issue fairly well since you would waste a few cars trying to get one guy, but I can imagine a sleezy commander littering the hotel alley with 5-6 cars trying to get his buddy inside so he can cheat. If they could add the random drift AND fix it so that the cars would not glitch inside of walls I might support that.-=raska=- wrote:

To me, he got the solution. just make car drops inacurate making them drift a few meters away from where the commander clicked...
Agreed. Nuff said...LT.Victim wrote:
For all of you that said "Yes remove it" Then you need to get out of Karkand and other Tiny maps, and try using them on wake, or Oman, once youve dont that, come back.. i'm sure you will have changed you mind, cause walking on those maps is a bitch unlike karkand.
shut up u noob....u just play with a crapy commander or marathon walkers...when even im commander on any server i get vehicle drop requests constantlyLSD_Wash wrote:
Nobody was asking for vehicle drops anyway. The problems they created vastly outweigh the benefits. They hardly get used for their intended purpose anyway. Just remove the stupid, pointless feature and call it a day. They would not be missed and the cartillary problem and hotel glitch would go the way of the dodo bird and the Betamax. Admit it... you know I'm right.
Good thinking, that would work too.canadarocks wrote:
Perhaps the fix is...the vehicle must be a request, and not just a random drop by the commander.

Yep, good idea.canadarocks wrote:

Its teh uber handiness those car drops, (No not to kill snipers, though I've had my fun blowing up the enemy Arty while a enigneer was repairing it and then the engi. died ) But anyway often if I play commander and I see a lonely soldier walkin all the way I give him a vehicle drop or when I give a squad the task to get a rear flag I give them a order + vehicle drop. So no, lets keep the car drops but minimize the abuses you can achieve with it? k?LSD_Wash wrote:

Agreed, but even more so.TheEvilCubivore wrote:
Add random drift, make it so it dosen't go on roofs. Easy enough
Cartillery isn't useful at all though, people say Zatar dosen't have cover, blah blah blah. How many servers play Zatar at a given time? 11? Not to mention if you can't find a car near you its your OWN FAULT. Hurry up and stop loligagging and you would get your very own car. And how many requests do you get for cars? 2? So people can spawn camp on roofs? Who cares.

i have YET to run into a problem with finding a ride on those maps, so i don't get what your issue is. I say scrap it, i agree, it creates more problems than it solves.LT.Victim wrote:
