Tower

[Diamondback]

I get the point but there needs to be changes to the tower
1. There's no cover to get up or down when your in then game so you basically have to stay up there the whole game
2. The doorway once you get off the ramp on to the second container really leaves a lot of your right side open Maybe a small door would help
3. I just wish there were some small view slits for when your being sprayed full auto by a couple of the clan recon team on 3 of your 4 sides and all you have is a bolt action sniper and if you stand up to fight you are venerable on all sides
I don't mean to complain but it would really help. If Dave ends up doing another work day I'll come help out but I never seem to find the dates of the work day in time if there's one over Christmas I could probaly come

I agree in general with the idea that the tower needs some change. In ans:

1. I don't mind this that much because you can just have your team cover you to get up or down. If you are pinned down on all sides you aren't gonna be able to move anyway.
2. I agree that the doorway leaves a lot open, but I think a better solution would be to put up walls around the ramp and the first box like there are on the tall box. This would let the tower people move around some and not be pinned in the one box area. It would also probably help with the opening problem mentioned above.
3.The addition of the other walls would also help with this, because then you could move to the other side of the tower structure to fight one group of enemies at a time.

I don't think that view slits would be ideal, because that would give the tower people a huge advantage. Just my two cents. I like that the issue is being discussed though because I do feel like the tower could be utilized better.
3. I

Also, Dave I have about 10 2x4s just sitting in the back of my truck. I don't know if you are looking for some, but if you want them I can bring them next time I come by. When is your next weekday workday/playday thing?

prior to saying that there needs to be changes you may want to say in my opinion there needs changes. i had 3 work days that i ask for help and only 2 people helped, you were not one of them.

1. There's no cover to get up or down when your in then game so you basically have to stay up there the whole game

not true, ask lt and others. when i play i have no problem getting up ad down from the tower, have done it in 3 games, no issues.


2. The doorway once you get off the ramp on to the second container really leaves a lot of your right side open Maybe a small door would help

no doors o the tower, its a safety issue.


3. I just wish there were some small view slits for when your being sprayed full auto by a couple of the clan recon team on 3 of your 4 sides and all you have is a bolt action sniper and if you stand up to fight you are venerable on all sides

you must work as a team, if you are alone in the tower (esp as a sniper) you have done something wrong. work as a team and you will beat anyone on the ground.

I don't mean to complain but it would really help. If Dave ends up doing another work day I'll come help out but I never seem to find the dates of the work day in time if there's one over Christmas I could probaly come

i will be doing another work day on the next tower, you have to understand that the tower money comes out of my pocket, that oe cost more than 600.00. it has to be solid and it may not look it but we tested that thing over 4 days to get it just right. if you want to help that would be great on the 2nd tower. i will post the next work day soon.
thanks for the input, and welcome any help or materials.
thanks

If Clan Reckoning was suppressing you from three of the four sides then you got tactically out
maneuvered. The tower is just that...a tower. I don't think the towers intention was to be a fortris that one long gun could defend against a three prong attack.

bingo,
you have to work as a team, spotter / sniper.
if i make a fortress anyplace on the field that is not real world.
2 weeks ago it was 7 vs 3, myself and 2 others. i was able to hold the tower only when i had a backup, but we ran the field and won every time.

Towers, especially if there is only one, will be a key point. It's a double edge sword. You'd be better out in the open.

Hey man it wasn't my idea for us to be put up there in the first place we could of held you off from the ground easy all we had to do was pack that fat little penguin up there and shoot any one that gets to close to the door

I'm pretty sure 400 lbs isn't a height issue:)
