arty changes

[hoary wigeon]

The timer change to 30 seconds is way too long now, either have it at 15 max or take it out of the spawn zone. they can respawn withing 10 seconds in the sapwnarea, meaning you're constantly fighting instead of being able to remove the arty

Disagree. They can build the artillery anywhere within the two first sectors not necessarily at the HQ near the spawn area. They need to have an opportunity to fight back for it as there is 5 minutes cooldown to be able to build another one.

Moreover, it can be still destroyed by any heavy explosives such as satchel, anti tank weapons or tanks.. I did not try if one arty can destroy another.

It is far too valuable having only 10s dismantle period

Sounds like we just need to rework the flare then

Ain’t no way you’re braindead enough to be mad that the artillery gun has a slight chance to be defended now. Sounds like a typical HQ bum camper

only people that want to sit onarty for easy kills would defend this. Arty was already valuable enough as it was, recon is 2 people and can easily get zerged if you put the op close or has to run from a reasonable distance if you want your op to stay safe, that owuld mean if your smart you do place it close to spawn so you have an op as arty and your base sapwn of 10 seconds. that means with 4 people you can easily hold recon off arty now. If you were smart enough before you could already make it very difficult for recon to get to you, no need to make it faceroll easy. this game needs less arty, not more

What’s the point in dismantling it when you can just farm the people using the gun as soon as the respawn by camping HQ.

Or they move the gun somewhere else, and you find it (easily) kill them and then…. They have to go build another gun? They respawn on an OP and you wipe them again?

I dunno… these changes just feel so unplayed.

COD the other app lil bro. If you don’t understand military or the importance of player manned arty Roblox may be more your speed

Yup, a long dismantle time when in HQ means only one thing - instead of targetting the gun to dismantle it, recon will target the respawning artymen instead, just as before. For better safety.

And to dismantle the gun only when they give up respawning there.

Now I am not saying the long dismantle time is bad. However when combined with being in the HQ right at the HQ spawnpoints, the long dismantling doesn't solve anything and encourages the HQ spawncamping instead.

With mortars there wouldn't be any such kind of problems. If they just replaced the arty with mortars, they could be at the frontline, along with the defending troops, in the strongpoints etc... and if not, then recon would need to be searching for them (as even if firing, the mortars wouldn't be possible to hear as far as a firing arty gun).
