so ya why did we take out the old bukers when the building system first came out in what was it late 0.6 or 0.7 we had bunker like buildins why'd we take them out?

Im wondering the same thing. It was a cool structure and i think it would suit the gameplay better now when FOBs are a place to fight.

UHMM i personaly DONT miss them lolol ... first off its way too obvious than a FOB 2nd ... you want to build a fob hidden not ontop of the flag usuialy ... 3rd it didnt give you THAT much cover one grande and your done ... same with the open lay out fob ... but hey if the devs want to create a more usefull bunker like a large foxhole fob base looking thing go right ahead i am all for making out of range and in range fob designs

A place where people spawn regularly is not a good place to fight IMO

I thought they took them out because they had ladders, and bf2 + to many ladders = bad things happening to good servers.

i personally think that fobs should have a bunker for certain things like on operation archer i usually lead a hamburger hill squad and a bunker would be nice up there granted a RPG could take it out pretty easy but it would still be nice to have or like when you camp there main on archer a bunker on one of those hilltops would be nice as well theres so many uses for a bunker its not even funny and i think it should be introduced to PR again

If we're going for some semblence of realism here, the "hide the fob" argument is silly. Truth is, fobs are useful as a defensive position, too. Let the players decide (left/right click)

I enjoyed using the bunkers, and I'd actually enjoy seeing them again as a option, especially if you can only build them in flags belonging to your team, but the current fob model is perfect for the actual fob itself imo

I to liked the old bunkers but in a way can see why we dont have them now as thay dont do anything different than the FOB we have now.
If thay put a MG or 2 in the windows and made it a little bigger I could see a reason for it.

I also liked the old AA gun (the ones on US airfield in silent eagle)but thay will never be back and I can also see why.

Maybe insted of bringing back old things we should think about making new things or bringing back updated old stuff.

FOBs at the moment funktion like rally points IE you hide them in bushes etc I think it needs a change.

They should make an option if you want to bulid a bunker or the regular one

i didn't say bring back the bunker as it was back when it first came out i mean we should tweak it a little add maybe a saw in the window like he said up there make it a little more resistant to RPG's like take maybe one rpg without exploding and make it a little bigger i really think a defensive fob position would be nice even more so for when the mortar comes out if you have a mortar team you want to be able to defend it while in the field
