Bushes (vegetation) has a little much 'holdback/slowing down' effect

This one is not a most important suggestion between the existing ones, but it could come handy , and it could be helps a lot.

When you rushing somwhere - to the capture point or help to your teammates - that sometimes the vegetation slowing you down, while you runnin’ through them. You runs 100% speed (without perk), and if you goin through these bushes, its hold you back around 40-50 %. Theres is a lot of them in Normandy, so you constantly meet with them. :slight_smile:

Im not mentioning the large, dense bushes, “little threes”. I am thinking of those whose height reaches about the height of the soldier’s belly or shoulders…and these ones are bare, rare-leafed parts of the undergrowth, so they Shouldn’t slow you down as much like now… :no_pedestrians:

A well trained soldeir, with full package of battle-equipment, large dose of adrenaline shouldn’t be slowed down that much by some bush in a battle situation ,when every seconds matter! :leg:
Thank you :slight_smile:

Actually I like how it is now. It’s a payoff for a shortcut or a covered passage, and it’s quite realistic.

i agree with @VoyoMayPL .

it’s better and more realistic if you are slowed down by bushes instead of going through with no efforts or struggle.

Although I like the vegetation pushback, I do think that the smaller twig plants do push and slow a little much. Big bushes are fine as is tho.

I think it’s correct as it is.

A bush doesn’t care how much adrenaline you have. Plus the heavier you are, the easier you can fall. Even a bush reaching your knee can be very difficult to cross.

For the in-game point of view it helps to not abuse playing Rambo in the bushes. Only taking the advantage of the cover.
Of course not every bush is able to hide someone but they aren’t going to add the slowing effect case by case “ok here only 1 bush, no need, but here 3 bushes close to each other, apply the effect”

Now if we talk about a plant like a flower, no not needed… But currently i don’t think such small plants slow down anything

A bit misunderstand…In my point of view, I dont want this effect to be removed form game, I just wanted to make them various “holdback”, like: A little bushes holds you back 30% and a bigger ones around 40-50%…
The problem is that a little, small, bare thicket is also holding you back, like a realy dense bush or something…don’t need the soldier to get stuck in every thread of grass please…but okay…that my opinion…

Oh ok, i see, i get your point. I thought you just wanted to remove the effect for small bushes

No, mate, never! :slight_smile: I just would like to see more detail about environment behavior, or different types of vegetation: Taller grasses around trees…etc.
In a different post other palyers share, that would be great, if we can chop some trees, or clear some vegatation, just in case to make tactical advantages or make more clear view. (now only bombs and vehicles can damage trees)
