Faction-specific ammunition box

Suggestions
1

I don’t like the fact that all faction had the same ammo box model. We can’t differentiate between friendly and foe ammo box without the help of the UI since we can now replenish captured gun using their ammo box. I hope that each faction had their own model (German, Soviet, US, and Japanese ammo box model) so we know which faction the ammo box belongs to. It also give unique look to each faction much like rally point model where each faction had its own unique model.

I agree, also it will be aesthetically a lot nicer. If they can make faction specific machine guns and the like, I’m sure this wouldn’t be hard to implement

The most important thing ever, this should be priority #1.

I guess you are the kind of person that see problem in literally everything, never to be satisfied.

Btw The same AA for every faction isn’t problem for you I guess, the ammunition box is what matters. I feel you.

  1. So? What’s your point beside flaming me? Not every suggestion has to be the “highest priority change”. This is merely a small suggestion which can either be implemented or not.
  2. I know that faction-specific AA will come soon since the models can be found in the editor. So you can stop being a jerk on forum post, telling people what they should be posting.

did you ever read like update logs??? these kind of things get constantly updated despite low priority. Don’t be like that, people are allowed to post any suggestion they have.

Also i’m may not be an expert but i believe dev team is constructed in such way that there’s different experience level workers and they do things based on that level. So this is an excelent job for some non-advanced graphics man or whatever you’d call him.

Don’t be toxic. All ideas are welcomed for discussion, no matter what you might think of them. They don’t have to be “high priority”. After all, if they only fixed what was “high priority” there would be barely any polish on this game at all. They’ve come pretty far with small suggestions here and there.

Relax dude, don’t worry about his opinion, while I do agree that there are many more pressing issues with this game that need to be improved, I’m also happy to see the helpful changes DF has made to these small details.

PS: The names of the machine gun bunkers for each camp are still MG42 bunkers (at least in the Chinese client) - even though there are no MG42s on all buildable bunkers now

Yes they are mg42, but i think soon they get updated to expecially in moscow were there are be vickers or maxim because the fortifications are soviet not german

@AlexMason66 also OP, i think if you look on the map you can found already the props of national ammobox, we have to wait only dev update the basic model :slightly_smiling_face:
