Sandbags

Seriously, deployable sandbags were one of the best features of DC, it really broke my heart when they were taken out.
I promise, if sandbags are added, I will NEVER, EVER knife paladin-x again. At least not intentionally.

yeah that was neat in DC, but if they were put in i think it would have to take a little longer to deploy them, seen as IRL people dont carry around stacks of sandbags.

I knife paladin all the time, and I feel terrible about it.

FUZZY! I thought you weren't buying BF2? Oh and to all who don't know, Pally really isn't very good at battlefield. So knifing him is pretty easy.

I remember a previous discussion on this and i agree with a reply on there, i cant find the topic so il state the basics of what was said.
troops should not carry sandbags on them. Pre filled bags should be found on the back of tanks, APC's, Jeeps etc so it would be possible to go over grab a bag of the back and deploy it somwhere.

If we did get sandbags, Id also request that all infantry spawns be moved indoors, preferably in buildings with only one door and no windows.

So you can play like a tard. It makes it much easier to block spawns with sandbags.

Well thats a good reason NOT to add it.
I like that idea of sandbags but its not too realistic running around with sandbags on your back

maybe it would make sense if it took like 20 seconds to deploy, you have the pouch, grab dirt from the ground, fill it in, tie off the bag, then throw it down, or whatever.

yeah, repeat that process 5-6 times you have a nice little wall.

Fuzzy knifes everyone... for that matter.
As for sandbags.... static emplacements(more than we have now, and in more strategic places) are good. But the idea of soldiers setting up sandbag fortifications(spelling?) on the spot seems a bit out there.
I must say though... in DCR you could toss one in a door and then throw a mine under it resulting in quite a boom. The sandbag slid back and forth tripping the mine over and over,the mine didn't go away for some reason.
+edit+
Skimmed over this thread. If it were possible to pick things up and place them that would be neat.

id love to see sandbags in some way put into the game.
The day when a game has "SMART" spawning IE you dont spawn outside if you are being hit with arty, you dont spawn behind an enemy tank, and you dont spawn in someones LOF!!
This is of course why i cant wait for only being able to spawn on your SL or Mainbase =)
