Trees

Wouldn't it be more realistic if it was possible to climbe trees? You could include them like a vehicle where u can use your own weapon and just enter/exit them like a vehicle.

I really dont know what to say to this. First off, there would probably be a good amount of lag due to the fact of having all these "vehicles" placed all over the map.
My only consern about trees is, as of now, branches can stop tank shells..

i dunno about tree climbing, maybe 1 or 2 here and there but certainly not every tree, and it would have to be very well done.

Cool idea but tbh you wouldent find soldiers climbing trees as a firing point. You are seen easyer and when you are spotted your in trouble becaause you have no immediate escape or cover.

yeah, i dunno if it'd fit well.

Quite simply guys, the answer is no tree climbing

What if you fall and break an arm? Imagine trying to get health care in the middle of a desert or jungle surrounded by enemies? It'd be fun sniping though.

Sniping was exactly the thing i had in mind.

yeah the japanese did alot of that in WWII, till the marines decided step 1 of the amphibious landing was to shoot the hell out of any trees lining the beach, even if the sniper survived that, he was toast after 1 shot.

how about tanks being able to run over tress? hum? 7ft tree vs 65 ton tank i wonder???

7ft tree wins ofcourse.

maby, for climbilg/sniping, you could make the tree climb able like the ladders. Then youd need a small space to stand/ lie on at the top of the "ladder"

It could be fixed, just code em like the stop signs.
you could have maybe some of the trees climable... but that'd be on new maps only.

why i know if i was a fighter not in the military that i would use a tree to hide or fight sure you would die fast but hey nobody trained you not to get ina tree.... see my point!!

haha... i guess, if you want to take 1 shot and get lit up thats fine but you dont have to climb trees to do that.

IMO I think being in a tree would make you more of a target than conseal you, for Bf2 anyways...

IRL it also does. Infact climbing a tree during war time when engaed in active combat would be the dumbest thing other then swapping your gun for a broomstick to prod them with.

EDIT: please dont now start a list of things dumber then the above
