Hey - much was enjoyed but here are some sticks in the mud.

Saigon - The palace building has issues with many of the small windows. You cannot walk up to the ledge, you may or may not be able to vault onto empty air. IDK why, might have something to do with the small window's blinds? Bad invisible volume? This video shows a group of bad windows, but others exist all over the building. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HuTi...ature=youtu.be

Edit: I think the stutter is youtube's fault. It did not play like that for me (at least me). The vid doesn't stutter on my machine.


Also, I love the improvements to the palace yard but.... Why is it not an objective? Even as a gimmie objective where defenders still spawn way back in the building and don't have a real incentive to reinforce it. So much potential, and it's basically ignored by most players. Give players a reason to be there and they will.

Appache snow - The placeable HMGs just are not as good as pre placed for this map. Pre placed can be better integrated into the fighting positions, placing the HMG in the same ways just doesn't work in a lot of spots. A hybrid lay out that keeps some pre placed and has a moveable one might be awesome.

It's a little odd that the HMGs tend to spawn in front of the objectives that are being defended. Hard to access them and set them up.

__________

Regarding HMGs specifically, You can't aim them down when crouching for cover. This is brutal on apache snow. They lock at flat horizontal. I think this affects all placeable HMG.

Cheers!
