Re: Jungle Fire
I hope there won't be too many fords as they defeat the point to use CSB and are quite unrealistic in most settings.

Re: Jungle Fire

Re: Jungle Fire
My issue with CSBs in the current state is that they take really valuable supply crates to utilize. Of course this is because most maps weren't designed with CSBs in mind (Qwia and Fools Road are huge offenders of pointless CSB locations), but its a huge detractor when you have only two supply trucks available at any one time.
If this map requires large CSB constructs (like 5 or more) then you might have an issue unless you have enough logistics trucks. A 5 minute drive to the river, back from the river, back to the river, quickly adds up and makes the task risky and rarely rewarding.
Now... if the french and chinese get some (amphibious!) L class APCs then I have no problems at all. The APC-Ls would then have the frontline FO duty while the logitrucks would have the rear FO/CSB duty.

Re: Jungle Fire
I'm pretty sure amph vehicles will feature...even teh VN3 is amph for goodness sake. Don't forget Trans choppers will be present so don't worry your pretty head that the supply trucks will be overtasked 
there are several bridges, so even if one or two is blown, there is probably still somewhere to cross.

Re: Jungle Fire
the bridges and fords are only important for Heavy Vehicles and Logistictrucks everything else is amphibious or by air

Re: Jungle Fire
Giving 1 side trans choppers and the other side not, on a 4km map is a mistake imo. Also I hope the attack choppers are 'light'. Not apaches etc.
I would bet that each side will get air trans or both none after an update is made to the map after release.

Re: Jungle Fire
One thing to remember is that they will be implemented by players as light tanks, not amphibious transports. Symmetry means that its 100% balanced and the utilization of respective assets is what will allow one side to win, having less transport means the assets will be distinctly more aggressive since they are more plentiful.[R-DEV]Rudd wrote:afaik the Chinese get air transport, just less; but more amph vehicles
Asymmetrical GPO's are a double edged sword really.

Re: Jungle Fire
Will the map have problems like Iron Ridge where alot of people were complaining about their frame rate due to the massive amount of vegetation?
Hope not. This one looks great.

Re: Jungle Fire
I've not had trouble on IR, nor have I seem people have trouble on IR, some people have claimed there is rubber banding on IR - i.e. lag not framerate...Will the map have problems like Iron Ridge where alot of people were complaining about their frame rate due to the massive amount of vegetation?
I hate 'alot of people complaining' comments cuz I cant seem to find a thread talking about it...
rest assured that great pains have gone in to optimising this map.
