Title: I miss the tunnels
Post by: FBRaptor on September 01, 2005, 11:25:13 PM

I sure do miss the tunnels on the ground that we used to have. Was alot of fun on gv runs. Also, remember the little barrackade like areas at gv bases that you used to be able to drive your tank to and use as a defensive position? I miss those too :)

Any chance of getting those back HT? Could you tell me why we don't have them anymore on any current terrains? Just curious. Thanks

Yeah, I miss those too.  The control towers used to be on little hills too.  All that removing these features did was make things flat and boring.

I really miss the trains. . . . . in a negative sort of way.    I used to love to be flying somewhere, sitting back to enjoy the ride, thinking "ok, no enemies around, it's ok to take a nice long drink of that Coke..." when all of a sudden I'm surrounded by flak and my plane is getting shot apart.  I'd think WTH?!  Look down, and sure enough, there goes  the "Little Engine that Could" chugging along on it's merry way.
Also, IIRC, didn't the building in the old towns die in such a way that it was much easier from the air to tell if they'd been destroyed or not?  Seems like it, but I'm not sure.
Geez, only been here a year and a half and already sound like a nostalgic old fart....

i miss all that stuff. I like the old towns a lot better then these, makes it harder to kill em. Also you have one church that hide in between the debries when the other buildings are killed and the other church that just has the roof sticking out of the ground. That one you cant see at all inless your 50 feet above it or right next to it on the ground.
