Why is this allowed

Devs need to make it so barbed wire actually disappears instead of floating above ground after it’s been dismantled. It still has collision data so it ends up fucking with the AI pathfinding and you have to maneuver around or over it.

As I stated on the post, EVERY DOOR was blocked in this manner, making entering the point almost impossible.

I don’t really want to nerf Barbed wire, as its OK as it is, but give less of them. 10 seems too much, and I think 5 would be enough

your mistake for letting them build all the fortifications uncontested, honestly. This kinda stuff is reasonably rare and you only see it with somewhat coordinated teams that protect the engineer building it

I see that, but at least in this case but I could not have prevented this as when I joined the match this was already built. I’d say that a bigger problem was the similar fortifications built on the capture points in the D-Day invasion and that this was just a rare thing which could not happen in most cases.

that’s a “join ongoing matches” issue, not an engineer issue.

I’m not claiming otherwise. I just think that there shouldn’t be a possibility of this happening, as it can basically guarantee the point for one’s team if the other is not able to stop it happening in time

Well it took a coordinated effort on their side to set this up, and it requires a coordinated effort on your side to take it down.

I see no issue here.

I guess so. Of course it might effect my opinion on the matter that half of my team were bots and the rest were elsewhere, making me the only one trying to get to C

yet another issue that causes “problems like these”.
You cant properly judge balance if one team has player disadvantage all the time.

I have found it is often possible to lie down and approach these from the side to dismantle them without being pinged. You don’t have to be directly in front - indeed you can be a short distance off to the side of the opening - very useful vs window obstacles since you are also below the window sill.

It’s not perfect - there are lots of places you can get shot at from, but it’s a game and I don’t begrudge a defender using all his resources to defend!

What does irritate me is people blocking all entrances so friends can’t get in either!! LEAVE A GAP FOR YOUR OWN REINFORCEMENTS!

Anti tank hedgehogs and rally points will not be allowed to be built by engineers in a space that is not big enough.

From todays update. It seems chat there will be no hedgehogs blocking doors anymore.
