Change it up
« on: November 16, 2011, 08:39:39 PM »
We all know it’s going to be a long time until we have any real GV battles in a major city that does not spawn legs and run afar :O
Thus far there is no way to establish a choke point or establish a hold on anything other than a spawn :cry
But we already have the ability to at very least change things up in the arenas we already play in.
Weather could be introduced; I don't think I have played in winter since I have been here, or how about some rain, wind, something to change things up.
Off line we can cross bridges and access points on a map but in the arenas we have there is nothing, the same maps in rotation over and over again :joystick:
How about introducing some of the old maps and weather conditions if nothing else :aok
Love the company I play with but could use a change of scenery  :furious

Leave the MA & fly in the other arenas and you will find different environments.

Not to be a buzz kill, but I think HiTech is reluctant to add weather effects due to computer performance concerns. Aside from that, the invisible weather phenomenon would be wind, but how would you imagine it can be used fairly? The country which is upwind of the other(s) would always benefit drastically.

+1 to snow and desert MA maps. Tired of the green. I'm sure some one must have submitted at least one snow/desert map, if not, if HTC put out a call for user made snow/desert maps, I'm sure lots of people would take a shot at it.

Wind? No
Rain? Planes didn't fly in rain during WW2
Cloudy? Maybe, but with icons enabled, it's pointless.

  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.

Hum, sounds like you want an urban environment for a GV battle. You might like to try this around Friday in the AvA, or so I hear.



Those red squares are vehicle bases.
Easy in-game again.

I'd like different styles of fields, or atleast the buildings on them to be a bit randomized.

Gets a bit boring attacking the same style of town/field/port/etc after awhile.

We still use both terrains in the AvA.  Special Events use Tunisia also.We also use the desert terrain TwinRivr in the AvA.

True enough, in AVA there is a nice variety of things from towns and destructable bridges to weather and even strats that don't grow legs and run to the back of a country :aok
Just wished there was as much variety in the arenas as in AVA or off line :joystick:
Since this is a wish list I figure why not wish for what is already available and in use for the general arena rotaions. Should give a lot of variations and combinations available :cheers:
