im at work and i am bored 
and i thought what the hell im gonna make a new topic 
My question of the week is:-
If u could make 1 change (can be as big or small as you want) to enemy territory what would it be and why?
the best change wins a cookie and my hand in marriage 
Youād want a blood filled, bullet ridden helmet? Well, would be nice to have that shrub option where the Ammo Packs give you a helmetā¦or something like thatā¦Would be nice to play soccer with fallen helmets thoughā¦A cāest la but!
I would put a no damage/no shooting buffer around the spawn points to stop spawn campers.
My change would be creating ET2 based on the Doom3 engine (I know, its a big change).
I hate rifle grenadesā¦ but I canāt see removing themā¦ :sigh: Iād fix some of the areas that are clipped that would be fun to access and Iād fix the way the trains and stuff are so I can actually SHOOT people on it, and people while Iām on itā¦ thatās one of the most frustrating things.
:>
umm so what you want to do is take a ww2 gun, and have the bullets pierce the solid steel construction of a train? Iām no historian, but i donāt think they had much in the way of armour piercing bullets in ww2. feel free to correct me anyone if iām wrong
My change i would likeā¦ if you kill someone, but also kill yourself in the process, you should lose xp, not get xp for the kill. this will stop people blasting away with a panzer at point blank range. who would even think about launching a rocket at point blank range.

Hmmā¦ you know that big wide open ādoorā on both sides of that train that one actually gets in to ride it? Well thereās clipping problems with the moving āvehiclesā in the game where if youāre shooting straight at somebody with an SMG you wonāt hit emā¦ you need to aim a little aheadā¦
I wasnāt talking about shooting THROUGH the armored trainā¦ :disgust:
hmm i donāt seem to have a problem with shooting people in the train. maybe turn your graphics down a little? or maybe itās a ping problem?
just clutching at straws
btw bullets can pierce the train its not made of armor metal thats not its purpose
but why are we even discusing this its a friggin game
Iād give the allies more than just the one chance to play defense. Defense win = huge gains in xp. If the axis manage even two defense wins, the xp disparity can be crippling for the allies on that third mapāand it only gets worse on longer campaignsā¦ if the axis manage to get defense wins on four or five maps of a six-map campaign, the axis teamās xp total can be almost three times that of the allies. If the offense/defense were split 50/50 between the six available maps, people wouldnāt bitch so much about how badly /xp_shuffle works.
Well I could probably think of a lot of things, but Iāll just mention these:
-Find a way to balance out the Garand to the K43
-Disarming Satchel Charges should be much quicker
-Increase the āwarm-upā time of the Panzerfaust
-Change Level 4 Covert Ops to something more deserving
-Completely change the levelling of the Field Ops to:
Basically it would mean that the current Level 1 Field Ops would be split over two levels.
Seriously think about it. The Level 1 Field Ops has the biggest advantage over all the other Level 1 classes. Level 1 Field Ops get Mega Ammo packs AND it only takes 15% of the bar to drop a pack (plus the bar charges faster) also add in that they can carry 1 extra grenade. Medic Ammo? More Grenades? More Sniper Ammo? Those donāt even pale in comparison to the Level 1 Field Op. And a Level 1 Light Weapons almost replaces the Medic and Covert Ops Level 1.
or tilt some of the maps a little more in allies favour. making the ramp in battery a dynamite only objective and the fueldump garage command post a spawn point are simple examples. The latter is so obvious that the developers must have tried it and found it made things too difficult for axis- but growing player familiarity with the maps seems to favour the defense so you might get a different result now.
