New deployables

[BigDogDavis]

I was wondering if 5.0 is going to add new deployables, or is that impossible?

[Great_Emperor777]

they say that they will add trenches,dont know if i helped !!!!

Guys come on. Atleast try to do alittle bit of research using the search function or going through some of the stickies..

Note: That is technically not a deployable, but rather a unit itsself

Is it possible for it to be destroyed?

Yes, you just need the right units for the job.

Artillery observers? do they stil exist in 5.0? (i love them^^)

[Aanker]

That they do!

[BigDogDavis]

What do artillery observers even do?

Their attack is that of calling in a very large shell fired from behind the front lines, while very innaccurate if it does hit it can decimate a unit.

I never knew that, I thought they where supposed to be scouts or something.

So how will their models look in 5.0? Will they look like any other foot soldier or will they have more of a unique uniform?

We discussed them a while ago and the plan is to eventually give them a model along the lines of a radio team in a camo tent stood around a radio system or perhaps stood around a map on a table, imagine them as the dudes on the front lines in their little radio shacks calling in arty. Note: This will not be done for 5.0 but instead for one of the follow up releases

[agunter999]

Wouldn't they just have standard artillery uniform

What? I think you misread the post.

[Iljitsch]

As long as you can't add planes arty observers will have to do their job (but i think adding planes is impossible, isn't it?^^)

[.Mitch.]

Definatly not impossible, to be fair not much is impossible it's just about how good you can make something look. You'd just have a very tall model and the base of the model would be transparent so that the plane looked like it was flying, the only thing would be is that it would be impossible to add physics into the game that don't exist, such as you can't make a unit that has to keep moving or it crashes.. lol

Is there any known way of adding naval bombardments like in FOTS?

Well, without knowing to much about modding, would it be impossible to add some sort off ...animation maybe, of the plane circling around its current position? (call me anything, just a thought that literally flew through my mind^^)
