Re: Please tell me there will be no arty in firststrike?

I would like artillery if it weren't so overpowering, if it's toned down a bit or made weaker, it would be much more fun

Re: Please tell me there will be no arty in firststrike?

I have a few ideas...

Certain maps we know have SD's above them so imps should get orbital strikes.

IMPERIALS:

Orbital strikes should be over really large areas and be VERY powerful where they hit but be really spread out. So you sacrifice accuracy for power.

Then maps that don't particularly have an SD for them could have air bombardments.
That are pretty powerful, and medium precise. Like arty but more precise.

Infantry maps could have small stationary arty, More precise but much less powerful. Like automated mortars.


REBELS:

Some sort of stationary arty... Vehicles or arty pieces.... Almost equal to orbital strike... But with rockets, or other form of weapon. Or perhaps just more Y-wings bombing?

Maps were arty isn't practical... Y-wings could be used instead. Make them equal to the Ties.

Then the same with infantry maps... Stationary mortars.

Re: Please tell me there will be no arty in firststrike?

not insuting, no way, just wondering what the problem is with people and atri.
if you want infantie only close combat maps, then your wrong to buy bf2 or bf2142.
you should stick with cs and ut. because there engine istn made for teamplay, verhicles.
BF inst just another shooter, because like in a rts you need to think what the enemy can do with the stuff they got. like arti and uav.

i'll bet your one of those types that doesnt even look on there minimap to see your own commander trowing arti on your head to defend the flag

Re: Please tell me there will be no arty in firststrike?

I love artillery, it really makes the game feel more immersive. Its good for strategy, and teamplay, and I have no doubt that the FS artillery varients will be even more so. Some people believe the artillery is to strong, or charges too quick, which is certaintly a justifyable thought. Its a preference thing, and people are simply explaining theirs. Try that instead of slighting others.
