[Features] Switching loadout between respawns [We need YOUR support!] *87signs*

[Flux1346]

Switching loadouts between respawns/matches

• Problem:
  

As an assault i have 3 loadouts: one for close-range, mid-range and long-range.
I think it's really annoying when I, for example, choose my close-range loadout and end up
on a long-range map like Oman. Or when i choose my long-range loadout and end up on a
close-range map like Karkand. And I'm convinced many other people feel this way.
Same thing with camo's: select a desert camo and you end up on Myanmar, select jungle
camo and end up in Oman. That's why i haven't bought camo yet, but if this makes it to the
game I'll certainly buy the Jungle set and some desert camo along with other guns as well.

• Solution:
  

My suggestion (what I think will satisfy as much people as possible) is to add a 'respawn menu'
as in most online shooters where people can select their loadout and appearance. That way I
and many other people won't get frustrated anymore when we select a loadout, press Play Now
and end on a completely wrong map for our loadout. More camo will be bought due to its increased
efficiency. Soldiers will buy multiple weapon sets instead of just one, I can only see advantages for
both EA and the bfp4f community.

I would be very satisfied if this feature actually gets developed and makes it to the game. That's
were I'm going for, otherwise it would be pretty much useless to buy more weapons regarding
the fact that you can't switch them according to the situation you're facing.

Feeling the same way? Do not despair! Make sure to /sign and hope that our suggestion makes it to the game!

EDIT: Now something alike has been suggested by DaSergant, his suggestion would be to be able to switch characters ingame. That would work great in my opinion as well. So I'm adding his idea to my suggestion as well. What do you think? If you want to add something to this suggestion or change something be sure to reply to my thread!

EDIT 2: Healin4Ev3r has suggested that we should be able to switch talent trees as well, so we could switch easily between them when we have for example our jet tree fully mastered but end up on a map without jets...

What do you think? If you want to add something to this suggestion or change something be sure to reply to my thread!

that would be great. Having at least 3 loadouts (more would probably have to be purchased from the store) so we could have at least 3 diffrent weapons to choose while playing
edit: ofc its a /sign

I would love this feature added to the play4free version which shouldn't be a hassle given that Battlefield 3 has that feature so EA know how to tweak it up.

You think they could actually add this too the game? Do you not get enough lag from the "Loading Customizations" during the game? Imagine that lag EVERY time you die.
It's a good idea, it has been suggested before, but this game could honestly not sustain so much customizing during game, and every player would probably be lagged to hell from this, just like the "destructible environment" suggestion.
Until this game gets a better "engine" or whatever they call it that supports and runs the game, keep on wishing on your fantastical fantasies.

Well that lag only occures when I'm awaiting my respawn so I don't really see a problem in it...

If you have not seen all the people complaining in-game about lag, or have not seen all the threads about lag on this forum, then you should look around more, because the last thing we all want is more lag.

I wasn't aware of that, i rarely experience any lag on bfp4f. I will check the forums for complains of lag.

[Astealoth]

it only makes sense for p4f to have a loadout menu in game.

this is the best business decision EAsy could ever make, and i can't quite figure out why they dont see it.

they have so many guns for sale but you have to leave the match to change guns. this creates an environment where people tend to figure out just a few guns they like and never buy more.

to allow us to switch in battle is the sensible thing for the community and their accountants. a huge part of your community will be more inclined to buy a large variety of weapons.

tl;dr
