Reverse the bases/sides on foy. Have the American bases where the German ones are and the German bases where the American ones are?

Wouldn't you just have to switch where the allies and axis spawn?

No, because you'd be spawning next to the opposing teams bases. You'd have to switch the tanks, jeeps, spawns, etc. Just reverse the sides.

May I ask why you suggest this?

He would like to attack in a different direction since he always plays german. :disturbed:

How about everyone spawns in the middle of town, that would be pure pandemonium, lol.

Why not, think it would be very interesting to say the least. I don't know what is involved in making it happen, but thought it may be easier than changing the actually layout of the map. I'm not saying get rid of the current ax foy, just create a new one that reverses sides.

Actually, I don't always play german.

I always liked ideas like this so I also thought in the past it could be nice to switch the sides for the second round.

Another thing I was playing around with, was to have the same map as kind of a "Counter-Attack" map. For example, think about Foy. 1st battle on AX-Foy passed. Evening, the town is heavily bombed and huge parts are destroyed, the sun goes down and German reinforcements reach the battlefield near the "old allied side" and start to attack the rear flank of the Allies with Tigers.
:mancini:

Also nice would be a battle-controlled map rotation. E.g.: You need a few maps for a kind of a campaign. Let's take 3 for an Russian summer campaign: KURSK - PONYRI - KHARKOW. Campaign starts on KURSK. When Axis wins, the Russian campaign failed and another campaign will be loaded. When Allies win the map would be rotated to Ponyri instead of the classic second round on Kursk. When Allies win again the map rotates from Kursk to Karkow for the campaign final. If Axis wins, map rotates back to Kursk and so on. This way you would have an additional target for BAS. You don't need to win a round, you need to win the full campaign to be successful (or to block the campaign when you're German). Could also nicely works with switching sides for the counterattacks. With 5 maps for a campaign you could start on the map in the middle and go to both sides.

I like that idea about the BAS campaign.

That does sound cool Ice!

by **Pvt. Ryan's brothers** » Sun Aug 03, 2008 11:33 am

I used to have an idea like that a long time ago Ice, but mine was too fantasy-ish. I wonder if it's possible to put AI in the backrounds of most maps, To give a more realistic environment.

by **MajorFullWood** » Sun Aug 03, 2008 11:56 am

Civilian NPC's would be cool. You'd lose points for shooting them.

While I think a lot of these ideas and thoughts are neat, and some of them even compelling, remember you ARE talking about a four year old game, with an even slightly older engine. It can only do so much.

Exactly. I can think of a thousand things I'd like to do with UO, but it does have low limits that we've just about reached. Also take into consideration the amount of gamestate things would take in comparison to how much it would affect actual gameplay. A new halftrack, for example. Cool vehicle to have, but it's gamestate usage doesn't nearly make up for it's necessity in the game. At this point in the game, it's really a matter of fine tuning what we have instead of trying to reinvent it. We can go crazy with mods/maps when CoD 5 is released.

I'd crash UO in .01 sec with my ideas.

I'm in the same boat

I think the heavy barn on the AMerican spawn should be where the 3 base spawn is next to the 88. The Germans spawn in their heavy, why can't the American's spawn in theirs? Leave the other heavy barn empty or make it smaller.

I like the map rotation based on victory. BUT you can do that manually. Instead of just "CAll Vote", there's now an option to "Change Map" and choose any map from the list.
