No pain no gain. Another poll about buiding stuff

This poll about only "active constructions" which directly controllable by players, i.e. Mobile spawn points, Machine gun nests, AT-guns, AA-guns, Ammo boxes.

(NOT ABOUT barbed wire, sandbags, Czech hedgehogs)

How do you think engineering structures affect the outcome of a battle?

[poll type=regular results=on_vote max=20 chartType=bar]

  • They have no affect at all or have a negligible affect.
  • Weak impact in general, but noticeable in some moments of the battle.
  • Medium impact. Although a team can do without buildings, the chance of winning is ultimately reduced.
  • They affect greatly. The usage of buildings cannot be ignored. They strongly impact the outcome of the battle.
  • They have tremendous impact and determine the outcome of the battle.
    [/poll]

Building for yourself and/or for the team. Which option is closer to you?

[poll name=poll2 type=regular results=on_vote chartType=bar]

  • I do not build at all and rarely use the constructions of others.
  • I rarely build for myself. I mostly use allied buildings.
  • I build for myself and use other player’s buildings equally.
  • I build for myself and sometimes use the buildings of allies.
  • Does it happen that someone else builds constructions on my team?
    [/poll]

What about enemy constructions?

[poll name=poll3 type=regular results=on_vote chartType=bar]

  • I do not see enemy buildings or I see them very rarely.
  • I almost never destroy the buildings of the opposing team.
  • Sometimes I destroy the buildings of the opposing team.
  • I destroy enemy buildings, but not always.
  • Purposefully destroying enemy buildings as soon as I notice.
    [/poll]

Rewarding for nothing or deserve it for duty

[poll name=pol4 type=regular results=on_vote chartType=bar]

  • There are currently no rewards for using buildings and rightly so. Leave it as it is.
  • Reward in-game bonuses for building in general, but not for using my building by an ally.
  • Reward in-game bonuses for using my building by an ally. Don’t need to be rewarded for building.
  • Reward both for the building and for its usage by an ally.
    [/poll]

What buildings do you use most often (in all battles with the rarest exceptions)?

[poll name=poll6 type=multiple results=on_vote min=1 max=5 chartType=pie]

  • Mobile spawn point
  • Machine gun nest
  • Anti-tank gun
  • AA-gun
  • Ammo box
    [/poll]

The American AT gun is waaaay better than the German one, but I can’t use it as often as I would like because it’s just so situational.

on D-Day map I take my engineers into the right hills and build AT guns up there and use them to fire down on the valley where most of the points are. I can usually rack up several tank kills this way. When one point is taken I just disassemble and move my gun up. Eventually someone will come flank me but it usually takes forever ( I think no one wants to climb all the way up there lol )

Mobile spawn points are extremely important. If a team ignores them entirely, they will most likely lose in all but the most extreme of cases.

There’s one hill I always build on because it’s perfect, but still it’s hard to get a good lane that you won’t die on the way too.

Especially since AT gun hitboxes were fixed now so the gunner is easy to snipe out.
Maybe I’ll set one up, hide out nearby but not on the gun itself to get a better lookout and be safer, then just jump on the gun once it’s time to fire.

Nice poll, I’m glad everyone started to make polls more frequently.
It shows the clearest image compared to regular comments

You shouldn’t be rewarded for just building, people will just farm XP at the spawn…

Y’know, they can’t do this forever
Resources are limited, so no point in doing this

I think devs should add static buildings like in battlefield 5

Yes they can, just build with all of your resources Destroy what you bulit and build again.

It’ll take too long, nobody would bother doing this

There already are some prebuilt sandbags on Normandy maps and of course trenches. Other than that I think that players should be Free to build what and whereever they want instead of having prebuilt building schemes.
