New Spec Op's Kit! - Page 3

**A.WICKENS** · 02-05-2008, 11:11 AM

I can finally see the Spec Ops kit as coming close to its intended real world purpose, too bad that you won't be able to get to use it most rounds. Either the Uber Sniper/James Bond fetishists will snap them up or they will be taken by the 'the commander is my friend and I am bored of hogging the little bird' crews. Still we can dream, I bet Dirt is practically begging the Devs to get the patch released lol.

I think the only thing missing now from the Spec-Ops kit, is MORE COWBELL!

**Ferris Bueller** · 02-05-2008, 02:31 PM

I would think that the specops guys would want less cowbell, you know, for the whole stealth thing.

**Sabre_Tooth_Tigger** · 02-05-2008, 06:55 PM

No you throw the cowbell like a rattly grenade, distract the enemy and then shoot em in the head

The cowbell covers the sound of the footsteps, and they will just be expecting some peaceful bovines.

Finally I get my way with the parachute! That is great news.

I'm a little afraid they are going overkill though. Doubled slams+ C4 + spotting targets + a good rifle= ability to take out anything the enemy can throw at you.

I fear it may become a safe-haven for lone-wolfs again, as it was in vanilla.

Only max of 2 per team.. doesn't seem that bad..

They can always restrict the kit respawn time to 5 mins or something if people use it without care

sorry to disappoint u guys....but theres no parachute. they updated the thread with the REAL loadout. instead of a parachute, u get a grappling hook.
1. Knife
2. Silenced Pistol (3+1)
3. Carbine (8+1)
4. SLAM (timer 60s) x4
5. Smoke grenade x2
6. C4 x1
7. GLTD
8. Field dressing x3
9. Grappling Hook

**Bamboo** · 02-14-2008, 12:55 AM

**Ghost Dog** · 02-14-2008, 02:24 AM

They made the correct decision to do so.

Grappling Hook is way > Parachute. Much more useful too. You can always take a jeep instead of a bird for insert. More stealthy that way imo...as ur not a huge target in the air that is in plain view. Grappling hook that is reusable = continuous access to almost any vantage point--something that Snipers, SpecOps, Spotters/Observers really need. Using a parachute to surmount tall hard-to-reach places is just impractical. Grappling Hook FTW.

squadexodus · 02-14-2008, 08:27 AM

Has anyone ever thrown a grappling hook into the rotor of a chopper?

**w.WAREHOUSE** · 02-14-2008, 03:29 PM

Spec ops guys with parachutes would have been bad news for bunkers/firebases...so maybe the grappling hook is a good compromise.
I look forward to future spec ops guys working closely with some of the good LittleBird pilots for some sweet behind the scenes demo+extractions out of hot zones!

**TheSkudDestroyer** · 02-14-2008, 03:36 PM

I don't think it's possible.
