Seriously? We STILL only have 5 custom kit slots?

There are
22 Weapons
5 Forms of Camoflauge for each gun
4 Attachments for each gun
5 Sidearms
3 Special Grenades
23 Perks

And...5 Custom slots.

Is it just me, or is this one of the dumbest design decisions on the part of Infinity Ward? I mean, the game has been out for MONTHS now, and I figure it doesn't really take that much to put in a few more slots. This wouldn't be such a problem if you could at least switch your kits ingame, but you can't!
Does anyone else think this is really stupid? I mean, many patches have come out, but not a single one of them gives a few more slots? Is infinty ward planning to do anything about this?

Yeah, I wish there were ten...not really sure what kind of advantage extra kits gets you anyways.

If they had 8 slots, people would be bitching about needing 10.

If there were 10, people would still be bitching.

I just wish you could customize the weapons beforehand, then be able to select them ingame, with a few slots reserved for those who use overkill. I want variety damnit.

5 is enough, but I wish we could edit them INGAME!

If they were unlimited you would still complain that that you only have 3 perk slots

naw, a few more would be nice...But if I were gonna piss and moan about something it would be lack of filters on server browser.

That's all you really need tbh. I hate having long range kits loaded up and then be thrown into a close quaters map.

Doperwt.: Anouk, Slayers little bitch; +80|6396|Belgium

in total you have 10 different kits. 5 standard ones and 5 cutom ones.

in the end most people use.

1 sniperkit for snipermaps
2 assaultkit for medium maps
2 submachinegun kits for close combat like vacant
1 spray and pray kit.

anyway, most people play the m4 the whole time. so no need for 10 kits

M16 kit for me, and a few others if things get a little too dicey. I'm content.

Yeah, either more custom slots or at least a chance to create-a-kit which dead in the middle of a match. I hate rushing my customisation at the end of a map, (when I actually remember that those twenty seconds are dedecated "customisation" time,) and I don't want to have to disconnct from a game to get some time to think it over.

QFE.

You will never be content with what IW adds to the game. Just like BF2. The only sensible thing you can produce is 'MOAR! WE WANTS MOAR!'.

Stop the endless crying, and be happy with what you got.

I've been playing with my customized kits without switching them for over 3 months now.

I'd be nice to have a couple more slots. Or at least be able to edit what's in the premade kits.

Meh. I would like more, but editing them in-game would be much more better though.

Does anyone actually know why its not in-game? Maybe they had problems with it.

I thought that from the very first time I played the game. Why they chose not to let you customize classes in-game I'll never know.

True, i cope fine on 5 slots.

You have 5 preset ones, which are pretty handy.

Also, you can have up to a minute in which to play around with your kits, plenty of time!

I am fine with 5 - infact, I only use 3. I'd rather have the option to remove a kit entirely, but then to have, say, Silencer + RDS on one kit.

If you could do that, heck, one would be enough. And why not just make unlimited and have a scroll box?

If you want to play the game with Less than half of the weapons, that's great. But I'd rather have access to all of them.

I don't understand why people are saying 5 is enough. I'm content with CoD4, I'm not trying to bitch about everything, I'm just saying that 5 custom slots is not enough. Is it really too much to ask for to be able to use all of your weapons? Say I want to specialize for long range fighting. Say I outfit myself with a bunch of sniper rifles and long ranged assault rifles like the G3. And then the map switches to shipment. I'm kind of fucked in that case.
Seriously, there's no reason that there aren't more custom slots. Add a scroll bar and give me 10 or 20 kits. Why not? It probably only takes a Megabyte or two to store all that deta, and probably much less. If you don't need that many slots because you like to play with only a few weapons, that's fine, but some people want more.

BF2S Forums Seriously? We STILL only have 5 custom kit slots?
