ATGM Ambush..video and question

[von Nev]

Hey Hiroo,

I don't think it can as they can't do hull down with tanks. The Battlefront forums still have numerous examples posted even with patch 1.04 where tanks shoot through hills (yes hills) and walls and buildings and LOS is still all jacked up with infantry on higher buildings not being above to engage enemy on lower buildings even if the building is right next door.

Originally Battlefront was blasting everyone about how great 1:1 representation was now it looks like that is a major, major problem with respect to LOS and engaging through cover as the terrain is not 1:1. You think that somebody is under cover only to find that the terrain that you are thinking covers you does not actually "extend" that far in the gaming model and for "engagement" purposes your soldier is actually standing out in the open. The end results are predictable. As a gamer you have no idea where these "holes" in the terrain are.

I too was going to buy it on the cheap then the continual horror stories on LOS and terrain just made it not worth it as I would stop playing it anyway. I believe that BFC is considering another patch but they think it playable and are having their coder work on the Marine module.

Just my $0.02.
