Command Posts

It would be awesome to have a “Defend Command Post” objective on the wheel. It would also be nice to know exactly which command post the enemy is taking over.

Edit: I’d also like to be able to easily tell which (enemy) Command Posts are firewalled or buffed.

I dont think it matters if its buffed or not as if they have it, you need to take it regardless but a little thing on the screen saying if it’s firewalled or not would be really useful.

It would be nice if it did say which command post was being captured at the time.

No, your ideas would make it too easy. Right now it is a challenge. You don’t know which ones have been taken, or how, and do have to defend them anyway, so why the need for a Defend Command Post objective? The game yells: “The enemy is taking our command post! Stop them, brothers!” That’s a clue that the command post is being taken. On most maps there are only so many command posts to take!

I miss being able to destroy command posts by dropping satchel charges on them in wolf:ET :frowning:

Definitely my favourite part in the game.

lol the best part was going in disguise then ambushing all the engies that try to rebuild it after.

Yeah absolutely. It caused a great deal of intrigue and subterfuge.

ETQW also had a lot of drama around forward spawns. But in Brink they simply hardly matter.
