Garrison buildings?

[MasterShazbot]

Anyone play CNC? In red alert II the infantry could go inside buildings and shoot out of them. The only way to kill them was to destroy the building (I think).

There should be a form of that in BF2 - infantry can enter any building from the doors and "use" it like a vehicle. When they change positions in the building (like APC ports) they pop up at a different window (occupied windows would be open so the infantry could be seen and attacked).

Ehhhhh, no offense, but i like the current system fine. Maybe just close the doors, but if we got this, we'd probably get responses about BF2 becoming a gallery shooting game. Barrincading doors is a nice idea, but not the use windows like Vehicle spots.

Umm...

They have those.
There's bunkers all over the place. You just don't "use" 'em. You walk upto the window or gunemplacement and... err... shoot... 'n stuff.

Re: Garrison buildings?

I think his point is tryingto make em a little less susceptible to counter-attack. You shoot n stuff, i throw a nade through the door. hilarity ensues.

Re: Garrison buildings?

Yeah... I just did that.
Couple guys in the bunker at the Reactor towers took my squad apart. I dove under the window and tossed a couple 'nades.

Very satisfying.

Re: Garrison buildings?

I agree. I love doing that.

Re: Garrison buildings?

i personally don't think there is enuf house to house fighting. Especially maps like karkand. I think there is only about 2(?) static house models that you can actually enter (1 double story house near the hotel flag, the 2nd one near the gatehouse flag).

Compare this to the old bf42 starlingrad map which isn't nearly the tank whoing map that karkand is. In urban maps its supposed to be the infantry that is king not tanks.

Re: Garrison buildings?

there are plenty of building and other structures you can get in and on top of to shoot from

Re: Garrison buildings?

not on karkand. Theres the gatehouse, building near hotel, warehouse, and those are the only buildings you can ENTER. Now, if we're talking about getting on top buildigns, yes there are alot of those. Maybe we could give engys sandbags so they could create mini-bunkers?

Re: Garrison buildings?

You know what would be cool would be the ability to mount your mg in a window. Instead of just standing there firing and trying to keep the recoil from shooting the ceiling, you'd have the ability to set up and shoot like DOD:S.
