Gib us back our satellite laser capability please. it makes sense its on station for 30 seconds then randomly the system doesn't want to cooperate if you try again too soon, it needs to re-adjust. Can we start counting commander kills yet? Need it for WW2 and other non-modern maps.

Thanks for the gun game, I hope every kit still has a knife. I cant wait till you add British and Russians to WW2 with their own maps or throw them over other layouts for balance testing. We already have all the weapons, you cannot hide whats inside. All we will hear is bolt actions firing.

Why? This would give insurgents a much needed advantage of rubble. Its only a problem for some players, once all the west village buildings on Basrah are destroyed you can only crawl around or run a few seconds behind something then crawl more. But there is less surface area for APC to hit behind cover, windows are too few, rubble provides better cover to fire from. At least on Basrah please reconsider. I miss RKG buildings to dust so I can use it for cover.

Gameplay consideration were secondary for that change. Big destructible villages are a huge killer for server performance.

No it didn't.
Maybe one or two guys could hide and get a few kills but once the village was destroying there was no way any squad could remain and effectively protect the cache.

Once destroyed that became a simple firing range to anyone with a scope.
