town/base capture

[sirvlad]

I was thinking that the new towns will be really tough to take down entirely so how about...you only have to take down say 75.Once it`s down to 75% a plum of smoke comes from the map room,so you know it`s ready to be taken.Just a thought.

How about just working for a capture now?

That's a novel idea.

Bushes will plant anti-tank mines and flip your tank  .

I'm waiting for a PIAT team to jump out of a hedge row and yell "bugger off!", while lobbing a PIAT round at my tank.   

I think the new towns are AWESOME.  No longer can you simply roll up and hose the town down, ditch your tank or FLAK, and run in troops.  It will take much more time and effort, and it WILL take teamwork.  It is really easy to miss a building or two on the edge of the town.

Im also a HUGE fan of destroyed OBJ stopping rounds.  Previously, one could sit on water tower hill and hose the entire town looking for hit sprites with their MG to verify the town was down, not so any longer.  Nice.  Lots of good stuff in this update!!!  I just wish the airfields would have had a couple of 17lb AT guns to help defend against the gv rush. 

Swell job on the towns, HTC.

Sure looks like this will slow down the land grabbing a bit.  Not stop it but slow it down which I think is a good thing, after all, what's your hurry?

That's why the SNORES choose to only fight them and not other players.

Well excuse the heck out of me.  I like the map front lines to move.

[whiteman]

just need some communication and cooperation and it should be easy as before.

[Ack-Ack]

The new changes to the town does not prevent the front lines from moving.  It just takes a little more coordination now to capture a town.


ack-ack

 The new towns are awesome , you have to really work at it to make a take happen . And communication , teamwork , effort are all exploited here . How could that be a bad thing . And for GV's ambush and tactics are in force what a deal huh . I think its great ! this forces planning as well in missions and it just reinforces the fact that the hanger is a tool box full of cool stuff

I was just thinking the same thing when I came back to post it and saw someone beat me to the punch.

Seems like the recent changes will emphasize things like communication, coordination, and teamwork  in order to achieve success which are words that get tossed around a lot by folks who like to engage in base captures, I'm glad to see someone else sees it in a positive light.
