[Suggestion] Outfit OS balance

    2 things:

    Reduce the holding limit from 2 to 1, it should be more of a commitment to use it. Using 1 of 2, no big deal. Using the only one and not having it again for 15 minutes, much bigger deal.

    10 second delay. The ability to react to being outplayed by right clicking the map is OP. Don't warn the enemy in any way until it's firing, but give the team firing notice that "the satellites are aligning" or whatever. The point is, make users of the OS plan for their needs just a bit more.

    My specific recent incident was defending an Amp station. We took a MAX crash by the upper route to back door the A point, and timed it to hit 10 seconds after the SCU shields dropped. 1 guy saw it coming and stalled us with an OS. We got indoors so we didn't go flying, but we had to res and rep our MAXes, giving the enemy time to get back on point. Our whole platoon had put effort and resources into out maneuvering and entire enemy platoon, and 1 guy can say "Oh crap! We've been out played! Better right click the map quickly!"

    "Better right click the map quickly" My sentiments EXACTLY!
