Ground Objects Support

[II/JG17_HerrMurf]

The game could use a lot more ground objects. There are tons of arguments about what the next aircraft will be but if you could choose the next 10-12 ground support objects what would they be?

 

Not Tanks/AFV's/Arty. I will post another/parallel thread for combat objects. This is more for tank recovery vehicles, fuel trucks, airfield tugs, Kettenkrads, boats, pup tents, etc. Things that give life to the average ground pounder and the environmental stuff.

- barrage balloons
- all kinds of field fortifications, bunkers, trenches, tank obstacles, barbed wire
- BMW R75 motorcycle+sidecar

yeah I was thinking the ground could use a lot more "life" so that would be a very welcome thing at least from my point of view.

And lots of broken stuff scattered about. Broken boats, wagons, and vehicles on the Volga. There were huge killing fields of equipment everywhere. Broken columns of trucks along roads, etc. Old and rusted though, not smoking or fresh kills.

I've been curious, do the ground forces actually battle and destroy each other, or just drive and shoot in a general direction?

[II/JG17_HerrMurf]

They did in the beta. I saw tanks destroy tanks but I don't see it happening in MP currently. At least in the DF servers. Not sure about SYN and other mission based servers.

I would love to see the Action in the MP servers center more around Ground Targets and Covering Ground Attackers. Right now the Fighters just climb as far as they can and tumble about until they find another lone Wolf to battle. A real Front and far more Ground Targets along the Front lines would help a lot. However, a working scoring system is a priority right now in my opinion.

What the game need is "shooting"  field fortifications, bunkers and trenches.

Another thing that's needed are runway lights. As far as I know the Pitomnik airfield had such lights.

And Landing T

A little OT even though it's my thread. I'd like to see more heavy AAA explosions. Maybe four puffs with one lethal one for atmosphere. Not purely atmospheric/non lethal ones ones as I've heard of in another sim. Or multiple lethal puffs to simulate a battery as opposed to a single heavy gun.
