the terrain itself is great!!!! but as for using that portion of the terrain for tank fights, theres a lot of getting stuck between trees, firing and hitting leaves. the forest is rather dense. the spawns are close enough, but if you get 30 guys in there, there MAY be a opportunity to spawn camp. the distances are pretty good, and the fact that the forest is pretty thick MAY keep spawn camping down, but its hard to tell.
so here's the run down from last night:
distance.... pretty good, id use it in a heart beat, but we only had 6 people not 30.
terrain itself..... very nice, good looking, very realistic!
shooting.....this is where it gets dicey. tough to find bad guys, without Icons on. I set radar to pick up GV icons. you only see the old style icons over friendlies, not enemy. on your radar you'll see a little tank on your radar screen, its pretty cool! but you need it to find people. without them, it would be VERY VERY challenging. even with icons, you'll still have a tough time, because the tanks blend in so well with the terrain. I was cannon fodder last night for sure. Yoga pants and all.
shooting around and through trees.... very very difficult at best. you'll have to find an open spot to shoot or you'll hit the tree, or you'll get to see the pretty airburst from hitting leaves.
all in all, with 20 or 30 guys, yeah you could have some fun, but you might get a few complaints about tree density and frustration as you can see above. if it was me, I would use it until something better comes along, or find a better spot in the map with more open terrain, less trees.
Brooke, was using radar an option or no?
