Timed reinforcement for squads?

Oldirti · 11-12-2007, 09:02 PM

It would work much like it does for Day of Defeat if anyone has ever played. Basically it will work like this:

-Squad of 6
-Squad member A dies
-Squad reinforcement timer starts (30 seconds)
-10 seconds pass, SM B dies
-28 seconds pass, SM C dies
-30 seconds pass, all three Squad members respawn
-Squad member D dies, timer restarts

I don't know if it will work to well, but it could reinforce the idea of squad together-ness and that.

Thoughts?

It maybe a little bit unfair for the players, SM "A" have to wait 30 seconds to respawn, SM "B" 20 seconds and SM "C" only 2 seconds.

If he's the first to die, he's the first to die. No way around that. That is just a particular instance anyway, but someone would have to die for the whole 30 seconds.

it would bring squads together and for once people would learn to work with smaller squads.

although it might bring on suicide rushes.

which could be good

Hmmm, could be good, I would like to try it.

So far the feedback is all positive, can i get a dev/tester to critique it?

The only good i see about this is that the squad mates would spawn together so they would move together and thats never bad.

... You mean basically the spawn system of 1942 implemented at the squad level?

XD

I'm sorry, it's a good idea, but I find it funny how some aspects of PR have come full circle at one level or another and this would just make it hilarious.

This could be problematic in certain situations, ie camping. I think this was originally why the feature was not carried into BF2. Imagine what would happen if an APC drove up to the rally point the second your entire squad gets in. That's 6 guys down immediately.
