Suggestions / radio communication
« on: 20-08-2011, 11:08:14 »
My idea is to add new option to commander radios (not commander screen) on battlefield as they are no longer usefull in some devs opinion and they're not appearing anymore on new maps what provides to no commander on battlefield at all. I'm not going to discuss commander usefulness, some may say that he's no longer needed but for players who like to be a commander there should be a possibility to play as one (you can even remove any additional options like "supplies" and "arty" on maps where mappers don't want them but leave the radios!) What I wish to see is a different Q/T-communication rose when using radio as a usual soldier - giving players possibility to use them and call any kind of support (what SL can do now) to their posisiton.
Another nice thing would be limiting recon class to squad level (one per squad or something) and giving them a field radio as they can now call arty and spot targets 'telepathically'. This could make recon less common and more important on battlefield. Also giving more points for killing recon (like for killing NCO) would make them a tasty treat for enemy snipers as they would become distinctive targets with characteristic radios on back.
discuss what i wrote as there is enough to discuss, don't even try to hijack this thread
EDIT:
And btw, I do not know much about the proper equipment, but isn't it a toy which I talked about and it's already done?
