Post subject:  RP transfering via supply package

This is very simple idea, that introduce nothing new mechanic vise, but could make transfering RP betwen players bit easier. Actually I am not even convinced if it is worth implementation - but why not share with rest? Maybe it is, maybe it is not worth. We will see.

So the idea is to add 3 more items buyable and sellable in armories. Those would be: Small Supply Package, Medium Supply Package and Big Supply Package. What would be their purpose? To use them as RP points transfer from one player to another. Player A is going to armory and buying those packages (let's say he is spending 150 RP on them), than is droping them and Player B is picking them up to sell in an armory for same cost that player A bought them (150 RP). Requisision Points are being transfered that way - no big deal.

I would like to point out that currently it is possible by simply buying any kind of equipment in armory and giving to others. This would NOT open any new possibilities. It would only made old ones more accesible. But nothing more. Currently I can for example buy 5 FAMASes and give them to somebody so He will sell them for same amount of RP.

So why those "Supply Packages" could be worth implementing? Well... First of all I didn't said they would be worth - opposite, I said that I am not sure if they are... But adding them could make it easier to transfer certian amounts of RP. For example to transfer 1000 RP I would now need to buy 500 AR, or 250 Sniper Rifles, or 100 Sandbags... Really troublesome if You asked me. So how about Small Supply Package would cost 100 RP, Medium 500 and Big one 1000?

Of course as I said - on paper it may look nice, but in reallity I can think only about 3 or 4 situations when I actually was "transfering" mine RP for other player.

Sounds nice. Could even name it "War Bonds" for appeal. The person who implements this, though, has to make sure that it's absolutely abuse proof.

hmm I like it :)
It would be nice if we could use them also for some kind of quest but I am dead tired for now, I will think about it tomorrow, but I like it nonetheless!

Pretty neat, It could be like a "care" package for someone like a new player in a server, or everyone's favorite engineer.

This could also be useful in campaign if you want to put some RP in reserve in a stash, while yes in campaign at least you can stash the valuables this would just be easier.


Also Think this would be a cool thing for a side objective reward. Destroy AA gun, get 8 air born allies and a 1000rp supply package dropped on location sort of thing.

Oh... I am surprised that such primitive suggestion is getting such big support. Well, than I guess I was right about sharing it.

Hmm... Never though of those. Well... Than at least it will have other uses. This may be good.

Again... I would never think out about using it in such way. But yes... If I don't want to see mine RP dimnishing every death I could stack it in... I guess it is more usefull than I originaly though. I am glad You all do like it.
