random drop zones for supplies

[Minenraeumer 26]

I'm a bit bored about the drop zones for supplies.

What about dropping the supplies on a totally random point of the map without marking the point on the ground.

 

That would give the game more of a surprise element and a tactical change because at the moment I have special paths I follow in the game to get the boxes I like. But it's always the same. I would like to see an option for random drop zones while starting a battle. During a battle with random drops you have to react on ever changing supplies and that might be tactically more challenging because you may spend time on spotting the dropping boxes to get what you want.

Having the drop zones always the same is also a tactic, as you said, you follow a specific path to get boxes and have all 3 supplies activated. And that is what the developers intended using this system; to add more of a tactical use for supplies.

By the way, you can turn off the drop zone makes in the settings, it will turn off for you only though.

Also, Minenraeumer, before the drop zone update, they were dropping in the same spots, you just had to memorize the places where certain supplies dropped. With the new update, the zones are marked, and the supplies don't disappear.

 

So supplies never actually had a random drop point.....

They removed some drop zones before the update, such as the health kit in the middle of the Rio doesn't drop there anymore.

I know. :)

I turned off all the dropzone markers the day they came because I think they are ugly.

I know all the dropzones in all the battlefields I play by heart.

 

And: always doing the same is just a program not intelligent tactics.

Military tactics is to quickly react to the unpredictable circumstances of a battle and making the best out of it.

Playing hundreds and hundreds of battles to climb one rank could be less boring as it is now.

 

And as always, I said it should be an option, not eliminating the good old game you know.

If someone wants to have the standard drop zones he may chose that when starting a battle.

 

Just think about goldboxes. Would it be cool, if they always drop on the same spot.

The fun with goldboxes is the surprising drop zone. I really like it, that the developers changed the 

old drop zones to more random ones. So why not doing it for other boxes, too?

 

It's more realistic, too. Real combat drops of supplies with parachutes deviate from its target point by wind and drop within a random area

like the battlefield we have in tanki.
