no need for people going über-'nilla in the choppers. lets concentrate on the armor-ambush aspects that makes these maps so great. you dont have to get airborne in every map.Alex6714 wrote:You mean if your team doesn´t use air defenses wisely?
Thats the beauty, teamwork on both sides rather than just spam on one side.
It's not a suggestion, it's a discussion about whether or not helicopters on heavily wooded maps would be a good idea.Tannhauser wrote:I heard Spacemanc was making a rather big forest map.. Not sure if it was going to have many helicopters tho.
However, IMO a hind on Fools Road and Kozelsk would spice up the map even more. I don't think it will be unbalanced, neither that it will be useless ; the Hind will be good for quick troop insertions and firesupport. Altho on Kozelsk I'd give a Hind to the chechnyans rather than the RF.
Overall I support the suggestion.
Is a prime example of how NOT to do forest.DonDOOM wrote:Quinling

Has anybody else noticed that nobody likes that map? Everytime it comes on rotation, you can see everybody typing in chat, CHANGE MAP!!!!
The work and effort that went into it is great, but its just not a favorite.
But in addition, the chechnians are screwed as it is, and u want to give the Russians an attack helo?! Then everybody will leave the server.
I also cant imagine an attack helo in places like seven gates and the likes. I think its great as it is now and for reasons the devs have thought of carefully.

And you dont need militia like forces to have forest maps.. Consider MEC vs Britain with a dense forest: No tanks, apcs and copters for attack and apc ambushes.
Ooh, there's an idea. If not attack copters, what about a transport scout heli for Russians?

Hey, i mean its ok, its not my favorite, but iv played two interesting rounds as chechnians, cuz everybody runs to the russian side.
Problem is that on chechnians, the SLs are not thinking at all. Its always me and some other brave squad leader keeping the first flag defended against 2 tanks, and incoming APCs, im just tired of doing that. But thats offtopic.
Still, dunno if its such a hot topic for a hind there.

An attack chopper will balance Fools in my opinion. A transport helicopter wouldn't do a whole lot on Mestiza. The radius on Mestiza is so huge and within walking distance, and a scout chopper will only make the map impossible for Russia, as noobs will be crashing them into trees and/or getting shot down by Ak-47s; 10 tickets per each.Ooh, there's an idea.
