On map where you start on the beaches (ie. Normandy and the pacific) you should start on the ship and take a landing craft with your ai squad to the beach and you will spawn like this tell you capture the first point then you have the normal spawn points
It would be very immersive.
nice, but I fear that disembarking on preapered an intreanched enemy would be a slother.
This would be cool but this could be easily exploited. the enemy could build an hmg or an AT gun and obliterate you as soon as you stepped of. (although it would be realistic). The landing craft would also have to be AI controlled to get to the beach because I can see some getting into a landing craft for some idiot to try a flanking maneuver into the enemies side to get destroyed.
Personally in my experience the beach is not that hard in it’s current form this could add some immersion and a challenge at the same time which in my personal opinion would be good
Maybe it could be like a cutscene?
This will work great for starters. A cutscene to allow the match to be filled with players in the meantime.
A good example of what I am thinking of is the beginning of the BF5 trailer for the release of the pacific where they show the Americans getting ready for the beach landing and the Japanese are getting ready for defending the island.
If feel like a cut scene could take the fun out of it and just make it “ waste of time” for some people
They could add an option to skip the cutscene.
(I know. we’re getting away from your topic)
For me, I would watch the cutscene for the first couple matches and then automatically skip them after they become boring
It fine. But if they skip the cut scene they would have to what for everyone else to watch it before the match begins (my favorite part of BFV Pacific DLC was the landing craft it made it feel much more immersive)
I mean, the game makes it so that people who load in too fast are stuck at the spawn menu for up to a minute, so why not give them something to look at while they wait for the game to start.
The landing craft would be cool, but if a certain amount only spawns of they spawn not often and people take them without taking their squad and/or other squads then people would be stuck on the ship.
I would definitely like the idea of at least starting the match with landing crafts. After the initial landing is when they should revert to a land spawn. this way it give the defenders actual time to set up defenses, but no too long to become a fortress and also gives the attackers a really cool start to a match.
They could always have respond/despond system so no one is stuck on the boats (like BFV)
That would be usefull.
this would force you to wait even longer after you die
It could work only for first spawn.
