Exclusive Light Area's

Post » Mon Jun 14, 2010 11:23 pm

I've searched the forums and have yet to find anything on this. Yes i actually used the search function, unlike many of our new users sadly.

Anyways, ive watched nearly every video and read every article and even H0RSE'S Compendium. I obviously know Lights will be able to climb/parkour the highest, with the Mediums being 2nd, and finally the Heavies being the least. But i want to know, will there be multiple levels to some of these maps. Like huge area's ( When i say huge area's i mean like, will there be routes only Lights will be able to get too and take, and i dont mean, a little 'snipers nest' or a little bunker, i mean, a full on route. Or will there be spots where Lights will be jumping from Container box to container box, like 20 feet above the Heavies heads?) where only lights will be able to go.

And no i dont mean, in those gameplay videos where that Medium climbed upon that container, and set down a turret, and immediately jumped down. I hope i made my question clear, and made it clear what im NOT talking about.

Because honestly i think that would be really fun for the Lights to have exclusive routes where only they could go for a while. Or jumping from rooftop to rooftop.

Also, do you agree with having these exclusive routes? Vote! :)

Thanks!

There are such routes; but all in all the maps are very restricted (imagine COD, not BF), so there are no big routes you can expect. It will be more like lights can walljump to a place which everyone else can reach by going the long way around using either the stairs (heavies) or a worse shortcut (mediums).

I have heard several times that these exist and look forward to ambushing and flanking from them. Not to mention epic light duels up there.

Well, when you decide to come down from your hiding place and actually make yourself useful, me and the other Heavies will be waiting for ya.

He said ambushing and flanking, not camping.

edit: Oh, that was a response to light duels. Still, it's fighting over an advantageous territory, you'll see someone at ground level before you see one 50 feet over your head.

When I'm light, I'm sure I will have more fun jumping around from rooftop to rooftop like a madman than actually addressing the enemy. :spotted owl:

Control over the rooftops might give you the edge in battle (scouting info, high ground covering fire) I don't think you should underestimate the power of altitude advantage. However, it won't do much good if you can't mis anyone on the ground.

Sure, an SMG and a Pistol will be real useful on top of a building... :D

I never said slaying, i said support, covering fire. An SMG or Short rifle will do just fine in that case. Besides, you can jump down, suprise the enemy or be the guy that jumps in to turn the tide of the battle.

Lights have exclusive highgrounds.
Mediums and Heavies have exclusive grenade launchers.

Coincidence?

This is true, there's no point in a big gun, if you can't see your target.

Further to my previous comment, I've got nothing against light areas if and its a big if people can be bothered to complete objectives and not just rack up kills.

Just saying, the ability to hide and run into areas NO ONE ELSE get into, that's rather unbalanced. The Heavies better weapons will do no good if, you know, the enemy is hiding and camping on impossible to get too or shoot at areas. I would say the Lights should have a much easier way of getting there, while Heavies and Mediums can still take much longer routes.

Will these areas have little dressing rooms and make up mirrors for the lights as well? And racks for them to hang up their shiny little ninja swords?
