will you guys keep an eye on the number of spawns quality of battles with the new truck audio and HC MS?

I'm not resubbing if it'll repeat the FMS's hours of inactivity, no offense but you guys were oblivious to its problems for too long.

We are monitoring alot with this, especially the amount of F2P Trucks setting FMSs.

One thing to remember with HC unit is it is 25 Rifles only.  Nothing else. That supply can be adjusted as well if there  is an adverse effect to gameplay. The other thing is how limited this will be, one of the biggest complaints about HC is the lack of coverage and not being in game. So lets say only 3 - 5 HC are on at high population times, It means at anyone time there are only 3-5 of these with only 25 bolt action rifles. 

Part of this is being done for a few reasons:

1. Give HC officer an incentive to join HC 

2. To help set up a situational awareness before the Truck and Armor begin to come in. WIth Garrison supply in 1.36 You will be seeing a lot more attrition, especially With the number of units available in said garrisons. With overstocking as well that backline town could have all its higher tier weaponry moved forward to a frontline town, which was used in an attack, It will still take 15 hours to resupply that rear town, and that is if RDP is not in effect. This will take some getting use to.

3. Helping survive ability of setting a proper FMS With the truck. We hope to see more tactical leadership in game and marking units and hot spots. 

 

We will monitor these units closely, and realize the mistakes by our predecessors and that does not mean it was 100% wrong. By adjusting the rule sets we wanted to try this approach.

 

Lastly, as with any change in this game the community will have two sides to it, while your opinion is it is a mistake, someone else think it is long overdue. It is a tricky balance. All we can ask is we try something (after lengthy discussion by leadership and the team) and then we adjust from there.

the game pop got this low from their obliviousness and the fanboy's constant ego stroking.

be critical, it's healthy.
