Commander jeep spawn/ vehicle timer
Posted: 2010-04-15 11:00
Couldn't find a post already /its not on the pre suggested list as impossible, and its actually already in BF2 in a way. Maybe this should be in vehicle feedback, commander feedback or suggestions but I can't post in there yet.
Would it be possible and or a good idea for the commander to be able to have a countdown to the respawn of assets such as helicopter and armour spawn? (my bad if thats already implemented but I dont believe so) Then they could tell the squads responsible or advertise for a pilot/crew for when theyre ready? Obviously its not going to change the game but could be a minor help, as for the reality aspect a CO would be expected to know the situation with resupplies I believe
Secondly would it be possible for him(/her) to make the decision to spawn an extra unarmed jeeps or transport trucks at main for the standard or even slightly higher ticket cost at a rate of every few minutes? Perhaps unneeded if the first is possible with jeeps too but sometimes if theres no FOB yet and people have managed to destroy or leave some vehicles behind and no transport is available and it's harder for SL's to determine how long they may have to wait for the vehicle (or two if theyre small such as the armed jeep) for their squad to move. In this way the commander could for example spawn it for a infantry squad and order them to take a supply truck and build a new FOB
-I can see the argument that this would be less punishment for getting vehicles destroyed but its especially annoying if you join a large open map and the teams already taken all the vehicles and the APCs are down/uncrewed/far away, the ticket cost could be increased to make it a strategic choice by the commander.
Interested in your thoughts...
