i see
Scouting is in the game
You put down markers on the map
Ja I know, Bartender was talking about an automatic marking system that places a marker on the map once you've spotted the enemy. It eliminates the need to manually place markers yourself but I can see it being too arcadey.
You can use the T key when using the command circle thing as well
Im not for a auto scouting thing
Its a bit bs
I've never liked the 3d marking system since v12?
I'd rather you use your voice to specify where the enemy is than slap a marker on them and then everyone can see it.
Auto marking is not how it should be
Is all im saying
Yes its slower to put a marker on a map but its way more realistic
And you can get good with practice
Yup
I won't be touching the gameplay mechanics initially anyway
Just custom maps and factions then we'll have a look at what can be changed or added or removed to better suit the theme of the mod.
Im also really against a playable G6 but ill leave that one for later
😉 If I were not to include a G6 I'd be begged at every opportunity to add one trust me on that.
It'll only be available on large enough maps. It's artillery range won't be as it is in reality
Yeah but its not gonna work like it should
Thats way unrealistic
It has a crew of 6-7
When they add commander role just call it 155 G6 arty strike
Itl be way too op as a in map unit
I'd imagine that the final version would need 6-7 man squad to operate it. Manual reloading etc
Then you take 6-7 guys off the line
And manual loading is nice and all but its hella boring
That's where 100 player servers come in.
The mod will desperately need 100 player servers due to the nature of the combat in that conflict involving mechanized infantry. Every squad had its own vehicle
In SQUAD right now not every squad has a vehicle of its own.
Yeah we'll speak balance and that shit down the line
Yup
Just my two cents for now
Either way though there has to be more players. As minimum two players of your squad would be operating your squad's ratel. Same with the buffel, one in the driver's seat and one on the gpmg
Also SADF vehicles can fit in more troops - Buffel can fit 11 people in it including driver
Yeah but they are also a rolling resupply point for the rest of the squad
maximum amount of players per squad right now is 9?
And the squad sizes are gonna have to be gyppo'd
Yeah only9
Are you going to add swatf?
Yup
