Do something against people who can't build

[Swayze]

some people just start building a base with zero plan, no strategic placement of ammo crates or bunkers, turrets etc. a lot of times its just random and a waste of ore. Also make ammo crates removable, had too many times where some fool put them on a wall and when the wall is destroyed the crate is lost and you can't build a new one.

Well I started Today, the Tutorial is a bit weak, trying to show system works, but its early days, it needs a improvement on HOW the Game Works ..

i don't think that the devs can deal with people who are either intentionally or unintentionally building poorly.

I agree that you should be able to remove any buildable structure and get the refund of ore for it.

yes agreed the tutorial needs work. when i did it the first time i thought building to be complicated but after doing it a couple of times in game its fairly easy but still needs work for sure.

what i would like would be restricted number of engineers, maybe as its own class and they should be the only ones allowed to build main HQ structures. It happens to often that you have 16 players playing sims with no plan on how to build a proper base and then chaos errupts, stuff gets build, stuff gets deleted etc its crazy sometimes. people wasting ammo crates or turrets is literally killing me.

there should be a limited number of designated engineers or something you can't have 16 people build a base, its chaos.

Yes what you do is press Y and start a conversation with them and offer guidance.

i'm hoping down the road they try to implement some sort of in-game leader/commander type role where that type of planning is done by one person and its on everyone else to build/repair. sort of like NS2. I think the game could benefit alot from having more organization with that type of stuff. giving different squads orders, rather then just joining a squad and its a free for all.

I agree it is pretty annoying

The game should make ore a reward for all members of the match, decrease the cost of all builds, make turrets slightly weaker, refund ore to the original builder, and make build limits on a per player basis.

The game doesn't have a military sim culture to support sufficient responsibility on pubs to build good bases. Let people build, both good and bad players, but more importantly dont hold back the good players.

yeah no ♥♥♥♥, but most of the times people either don't talk or throw around insults and continue their bs. you can't rely on communication alone unfortunately.

Unfortunately you can only hope to convince them...

Otherwise ,when they get distract ,you tore down theirs stuff and rebuild the right way. Or may be during the build phase you need 2 people to build . So if one disagree about blueprint , no ore waste .

The ability to deconstruct full ammo racks for better placement would be nice.
I usually only play on Normal so perfection is not necessary though I have had far too many players forget to place down a ramp for their walls.
Whenever I point out an obvious mistake players tend to get defensive, so rather than them fixing the issue and learning for next time I am stuck fixing it myself.

A commander that has access to map and can issue pings, personal pings, orders to each squad and overall coordinate. Think it would fit cause at least 2 people always stay at HQ to defend it.

And should give some temporary buffs like "hold the line" which grants resistance to dmg for few seconds or sth.

Or rally up to speed movement etc etc
