In my opinion sandbags are tottaly useless. Some ways to make them better is to cut the alotted sand bags in half, add 50 cal mounts to the top of the sandbags, or totally replace them with barracades instead. Sandbags are a waste of time, you cant even see over them crouching, and it takes forever to build them.

used correctly, placed correctly, they become very, very handy in certain circumstances. You can't just place them any old way you know!

All the sandbags do is get in the way of freindly vehicles and most just use them as barracdes.

Shorten them a bit so you can crouch fire over them and they're fine.

sandbags used against me on fool's road were god like
militia was defending estate and used them as barricades and firebases (not the assets type)
result: brits wiped out until multiple apc's arrived 10 minutes later

instead of sandbags there should be repair stations

Ditto.

Sandbag bunker next to the AA everytime, get grenadier and support gun in there and you're laughing :P

The problem isn't the assets (though I agree I'd love to have a mounted M249 on a sandbag wall)
It's the people using them, Think about your feng shui when placing assets. Razor wire and sandbags should be used together to funnel the enemy into a vulnerable area or slow him down while you can shoot him from cover (from your sandbags)
Been suggested a lot before btw and this thread is a lil more compete on the idea...
