Sequoia Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 It seems like I remember reading this but maybe the old brain is failing again. Will we be able to break terrain into smaller areas? Hence will smaller buildings, wooded areas, ditches be possible? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 As far as I'm aware there will be no changes to the size of a 'tile' from CMSF (8x8 meters). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akd Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 You can have smaller structures and terrain features within a tile, best example being walls and trenches and I don't see why you couldn't have a smaller buildings, perhaps a shed. I can pretty easily imagine placeable creek beds or ditches with interconnecting segments similar to the current trench system, offering perhaps half the cover of a trench. Some sort of smaller ditch will be necessary to portray Norman hedgerows and fields and typical rural roads throughout Europe, so I'm sure we'll see that one way or the other. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've noticed that some of the gravel roads in CMSF have very shallow ditches on the sides that men routinely move to when ordered to the nearest action spot. I haven't tested to see if they provide cover though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlefront.com Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 There are no plans on decreasing the Action Spot (tile) size for probably a number of years. The exponential increase in computing resources is likely not worth the payback. A better use of increasing resources is to have larger maps.
