Let items be put back into their "crates"

Post by Jalleo » 29 Apr 2016, 12:28

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Be able to put things back inside the object crates they came from. e.g. grenade crate,smartgun etc etc.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
Let people be able to carry stuff more easily or stored in a more organized fashion.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
See above
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
Just change the weight class that is preventing the items from being stored back inside.

The reason we don't allow you to put stuff back in a crate is because you should only be taking it out when you are on the planet. Once you DO deploy, you are most likely never going to need to put it back in the crate.

What about setting up a better FOB?

Packing up your bags in a hasty retreat back to the Rasp when Planetside is overrun?

Just these two situations alone are common enough that being able to stuff everything away into a crate and getting the heck out of dodge is a much needed buff to marines, especially for important roles such as specs, medics, and combat engineers that carry loads of stuff and can turn the tide of battle with their supplies and usage of said supplies alone.

The pulling nerf that makes you slow as heck while pulling something also covers this, so you won't see this unless its a dire situation that requires everything to be packed up and moved pronto.

The only things you can, theoretically, put back into crates are mines and sentries. So if we did add it we would also have to make it so you would have to disassemble the sentry to put it back in the crate. Truth be told, if you don't have enough time to turn off a sentry and unwrench it, you are fucked anyways.

Going with denied only because there's no reason to really do it, and it's in there to prevent abuse (of stuffing similar items into the crates, that don't originally belong).
