i think some people are forgetting that this is a game. it is meant to be enjoyable and fair for both teams, therefore i think these rules should be implemented for a better gameplay experience.
That's exactly what I'm aiming at. Sure, hiding behind a hill will keep you alive, but it's not a lot of fun. If you take away cover for both parties, no one has the advantage and it gives for more epic confrontations than hiding and shooting at a target you'll never hit.
i like you guys, but i just can't agree on most of these rules, some are ok, but some are just to restricting. When BiteMe tournament starts, regiments will be scrimming, and regiments will want to win. Standing facing each other in full view will make for a quickly and deadly encounter. But it will come down to who's the best shot & some luck. Regiments may want to play to there strengths, such as those good in melee, will wanna close the range asap, or draw the enemy up close. There aren't any rules in warfare tbh, but i understand what your trying to do, just trying to make the game enjoyble and quicker for all. But as you already know, were a bit competitive
I don't think you should be negative until it is actually tried.
If these rules are enforced then I doubt I will be turning up to Monday line battles anymore. We use things such as crouching to indicate to our commander that we are reloading so to say no crouching would immediately mess that one up. Also, using a hill as cover should be perfectly fine seeing as projectiles on this game can travel the full distance of the map without experiencing environmental factors such as gravity.
Anyway, that's just my opinion on the matter.

Maybe people should realise this is a game rather than a way for armchair generals to increase their epeen. People play to have fun, not to be restricted by more rules than is necessary.

Well yeah, there are no rules in regular play, that is always an option if you don't like them. As I've realised from this thread, fun is subjective, there are people who enjoy the rules too. Surely it would be better if the 52nd set up some kind of tournament separate from line battles? There would probably be a lot of interest and then the two groups could both have their fun without stepping on each others toes.ProjectAngel 说:
I don't understand how the first part of your post relates to anything so just gonna ignore that.
Well, if the no cover rule isn't going to be enforced then I'll be camping the **** out of everything with my regiment. *shrugs*

There is bullet drop in this game. And if you've been to a linebattle, it either results in people shooting at each other crouching behind a hill killing nothing or just getting open and charging. Linebattles should be about medium-range volleys.

I like the rules, maybe we should add them for linebattles only.
I filmed the last two line battles and if stop being lazy will upload them sometime and to me they seem pretty spot on at the moment to be honest.
The sniping from behind hills doesn't go on for too long before melee begins and the only real discipline you need to keep is standing and moving in formation. If you start to restrict where people position themselves, when they are allowed to shoot, whether they can use an in game feature or not and all this on top of the class restrictions that are already in place, then to me it seems like it would be more of a chore than a pleasure to play.
This is just my opinion though and I have no doubt that some players would prefer to play the game as more of a historical reenactment rather than for a bit of light entertainment.

That's the problem. Sniping from behind the hills result in no kills and then people just get close and get in a big melee cluster****. There's very little LINEBATTLE
Well after watching through the videos I can see that kills are achieved in these long range attempts. The way I see it is; If you expect people to come on and march up to each other, form a line face to face with the enemy then all fire at the same time then I think people wouldn't want to play. It would be boring and uneventful. The lack of cavalry and light infantry in these line battles is already a little frustrating and to add to that would be a step in the wrong direction.

It wouldn't necessarily play out that simply though. Once you get people out of their camping spots we'd see a lot more tactical maneovering, flanking etc; maybe some of the more interesting things like fire and advance too. As for how boring and uneventful a ranged fight is, I think it's more interesting when you actually have a decent chance to hit something instead of pouring lead into the face of a hill (even if it is sometimes possible to score a kill like that.)

How can you possibly claim that two armies walking up, facing each other and then shooting each other will involve more tactical manoeuvring than finding the best vantage points to fire from and setting up your regiments to defend it, or attack it?
Yeah, I don't know what you people are on about. I'm not saying you need to decide like "okay, we're gonna stand here and shoot". There'll be plenty of moving around to get better angles at enemy lines.
You posted this obviously looking for people's opinions on the matter and I have given you mine. If people want to go ahead and give these rules a try then that's fine by me. Maybe you could try putting it to a vote and see what sort of results that gives.
