Personal Opinion: I honestly hate jetpacks, I feel they glitch the hitbox way too much. Having a personal healing flying fucker just makes it worst.
Tester Opinion: There is just no reason for Medics to have a Jetpack. They dont need to be soaring through the skies. If they want to heal people, than push with them on the front lines,ect.
Pros:
Honestly their really is none. The only pro would be they are able to get to people faster
Cons:
Adds more people flying through the air.(Meaning more glitchyness)
Doesnt really support the role in which their battalion is suppose to play.
With that being said, RM getting a jetpack is gonna have to be a -1 from me
Now that was just the jetpack aspect. Which I feel people are covering way too much. He did suggest two options. Lets talk about Option Two.
Personal Opinion: Honestly Pilots are such a under used class, if the RM battalion wants it let em have it. I personally would love to see more pilots on the server
Tester Opinion: The Republic Medics are suppose to essentially be(as everyone else stated) a "Support battalion". Giving them a pilot could further push this, as they are then able to essentially evac people, or get medics quicker to the field(Without Jet-packs). Having another pilot job on the server wouldnt hurt to much, if the RM were to actually use it like they say they will.
TLDR
Pros:
More Pilots on the server
Republic Medics are able to work more like a "Support Battalion"
Can help medics get to the front lines quicker, or help get injured soldiers/vips off the field faster.
Cons:
If Republic Medics don't actually use this job, could be a useless pilot job like many of the others on the server
Overall, +1 for RM as Pilots can further support the role in which their battalion is suppose to play.
