i dont know how sony will put this together but it does seem cool... it has lots of room for failure and lots of room for succsess... i mean its just so odd that they would use a amry base as a capital... anyway this could go ether way lets hope for the best.

I agree I wanted a tree or a bush to the the capital.

I agree, an army base really doesn't seem like the place for a political capital, even on a war-torn planet like Auraxis. At the very least, they should make the capitals much larger than a regular base, with more turrets, stories, and artistic features. At the very most, they could build entire cities around the capitals. Then, we could have awesome urban combat, systematically moving forward block-by-block towards that pinnacle in the distance (Read: Core Combat's 'urban combat blew f u c king chunks).

That would be awesome but I like my idea too. :groovy:

@ Destroyeron: Please, please, please, NEVER suggest anything like that! The Devs might hear... :eek: . The caverns are crap, pure and simple. If they try to put anything important into them, it will ruin the game for many people who do not want to waste their hard-earned money on a crappy expansion.

They aren't capitals people, they're capitols.

Capitals and capitols are two different things.

maybe , make it a bigger base with no walls but turrets on the ground like they are in the caverns , then make it a city around it , put towers in random places in the city so u can advace through the city to make it to the base,make it have big buildings in the city too (sorta like the game ww2 online if any of u have played it , its a mmofps too)and make the buildins in the city explodable , where if the buildings take enough damage they explode and make a big pile of rubble, (sorta like ww2 online again :p)i love how a high lvl bomber in ww2 online can drop bombs on a city like antwep in europe and blow the buildings and ...... like its cool and stuff :)

They should create the capitol building in the middle with atleast two layers of walls around it so incase the enemy passes the first wall the second will be there to also defend. Thus the capital can be all civil like and the walls will be all military like. But the walls should have alot of turrents and places to take cover while on the wall and slots inside the wall where people can shoot out of, including maxs. If theres gonna be a capital it will definitely be the hardest thing on the continent to conquer.

One, this game can't support dynamic envorinments atm. Two, no.

So, you want a capitol building inside a capital building?

I was hoping for a new building in the "strategic" center of the continent! in a way that would make using hte terrain for defense more noticable and make you think more about it for the other bases.

the way I understand it they are going to put a force field around it and the only way in is to cap 3 other specific bases on that cont.

btw, all the benefits of a lock? does locking actually have benefits except for making the cont look your empire's color?

I like the idea of an entire continent thats a base, streets, buildings,( and i mean alot) would be REAL urban style combat. Know wat i mean? a continent thats a base, that would so own

"Me and a squad running down the street, tanks behind, ambushing the enemy at intersections, and the such. But its still a great game
