as we all know hidouts stick out like a sore thumb my way of thinking to combat this is

let the SL pick from a few different looks of hidout thats more fitting to a map that may not be so easy to notice heres a few things that would look less noticeable

rocks not the small kind ofc but the large bolder like ones for desert terrain.

Boxes you know the brown type wich are found on most urben maps.

cars the undrivable static ones agian on most insurgant maps.

i think it would add more a sense of awereness of your suroundings imagen being a bluefor grunt walking down a street than thinking was that car allways placed there?

or being so paranoid you try to blow up normal static objects thinking its a possable hidout

i also think that it would bring back the whole insugants could come from anywere aspect that is missing at the moment and has the plus of being real simple to impliment in game.

what do you think?

Not sure if this is easy to implement, but the idea as such is great.

It makes life harder for BLUEFOR, which could be balanced however...

LOL




Sorry I just imagined INS pouring out of a car irl. This is a great suggestion though. especially for maps like Korengal where hideouts stick out like a sore thumb. The car idea is good, but just doesn't seem that realistic, even if it was a metaphor










Though I would love to see a car on a roof....

ppl pouring out of a tent thingy aint so realistick either

o and we had spawn cars once drivable spawn cars it was funny dont want those back tho

The tent thingy we use now is supposed to be the entrance to a tunnel system.

It's an interesting idea, to say the least. I like it.

i think its a good idea

I dont think it would be impossible to use. Im certain at least a choice of two different appearances could be available to cell leaders, much in the same way a Conventional squad leader can chose to place razorwire/sandbags.
One choice could be the current hideout, but covered in foliage to to blend into a rural environment, while the other could be something to match the urban environment, such as a cellar entrance enclosed by wooden crates.

...mongol...

maybe even just different colour schemes would do the trick.
the reason that they stand out so much on maps like fallujah is because they are dark brown unlike the surroundings

This is really a good idea... I could really improve hideout concealment

Official Cheocookie:



I'm sure it would be mostly a coding thing, as you can re-use numerous models already in game.

The difficult thing is figuring out just which thing to thermite :S

caches are already concealed.. why not conceal their "hideouts" it just makes sense and it would make it harder and more interesting for the conventional factions
