Blitz Update Items

[Lumberjack]

The Blitz update items can be used in games in the Eu 7v7 CTF Ladder  from Monday the 10th, with the exception of the deployable repair kit.  We've not seen enough use of it yet to gauge its effectiveness, so it will remain banned until we do...

The items now usable are:

• TC24
• EXR Turret

Maybe the deployable repair kits can be allowed with the next patch. Atleast they won't repair through walls then.

I have to say I really don't like the idea of a class that "plays itself" to that extent, and so would much prefer to keep the repair station banned (and impose a 1 TCN limit, and ban the use of all deployable turrents... :p).

Having deployable guns fire for you is bad enough, being able to repair as well feels like a kick in the teeth to anyone playing a class that can't rack up kills/be useful the entire time via automation. Just my opinion, assuming you want our feedback

If you don't like turrets/etc... why are u playing tribes?

[Juzzo]

Heh. Don't mind it to some extent, would prefer without. Anyway, feedback given, I better be entered into the monthly draw

Turret Monkeys have been an integral part of teams since Tribes 1.

Motion sensors and grenades are more usable than the repair kit. However the bug needs to go. Other than that it is wasted At least you won't see me using it, and:
Trust me, i am the technician.
The only use for it i see atm:
shrike loadout does not need anthing besides a repair gun and a thumper. Therefore the turrets as warning and the repair kits somewhere behind the base would help to quickly go through a repair lane.
