Ability to dig holes

[MyChicken]

Hello, i would love to see that the Vietnamese soldiers have the ability to dig holes in the earth for cover or to hide. :IS2:

I would like to see it on both sides that you can build foxholes, place sandbags, ammo drops, rallypoints even perhaps like in Project Reality. I adds so much more to a game than just a random spawn.

how about no, it's not realistic within the timespan of a RO match

Then make it, I'd like longer matches with more strategic battles etc.

I doubt the UE3 terrain allows for such changes

I'd rather just a WW2 mod for Squad.

Have you ever dug a hole big enough to stand or crouch in? It takes a loooooong time.

Wouldn't be realistic.

Digging foxholes in real life sucked!

Sounds fine in theory but would suck in actual gameplay. At least that's my opinion.

Good luck finding a server with enough people willing to stare at the ground for 15+ minutes. That's how long it takes to dig a basic foxhole.

 

[SolitarioSoldat]

its a "fast paced" realistic shooter, we gonna see duggable foxholes as much as player operated choppers...

Honestly, I don't see this as a valid argument and it's the only one being repeated throughout the thread. An alternative approach to the issue would be to have a 2 or 3 minute "set-up" time for the defending team, during which the foxholes/slit-trenches/traps/whatever could be placed by the team commander or sapers or whoever would be designated for that...
