Hey I know this might get me a lotta flak, but eh, who cares. This is my idea:
Underwater Bases ~ Ok so here's the idea. Basically it'll be a big-ass patch (not a purchase, no people would buy it) that everyone would download. This patch would create X number of underwater bases. I'm not sure how many but that's not important. Anyways along with these underwater bases would come all sorts of new weapons and vehicles. You could have a harpoon gun or some such thing, or something a lot cooler whatever floats their (PS) boat. And for vehicles you could have small one-man pods that maybe had some small torpedo thingies, and big 3- or 4-man subs that were the heavy assault dudes, etc.
Now I realize that even with the Battlefield Concentration Initiative that adding more bases would just take away fighting on land, but maybe their would only be one or two underwater bases? I dunno just a thought I had while talking to SecondRaven one night, lol.

I like the idea but I'd like to see more vehicals and weapons for land fighting, not add more for underwater bases.

I would love to see underwater bases but they would have to be a patch and not a expansion that i you have to go buy. But we will have to see what happens in the next few months with planetside and all this new force dome yada yada stuff. After they get that done they can think about the underwter bases

How about a massive hovercraft with maybe 8 crew positions. A few would be weapons, but some would be the equivalent of CUDs. The vessel could patrol the waters, and would essentially be a Captain's Yacht to direct continental troop movements.
The same idea would work for floating platforms. Commanders have far too few tools to direct the troops as it stands.

Thats a great idea Cryptica :( but..... its missing something. Its still a good idea but alot of contintents dont have alot of water surrounding them. Cyssor is the only place I could see this happening, theres water everywhere. Maybe the devs might put a drydock for water vechicles or something, then u can at least have some new vechicles and maybe "A Base by The Sea" :D. Its a fan fiction im working on its pretty cool it starts out with The NC NAVY SEAL's (my outfit thats under consturction) and there efforts to turn the tide for the New Comgolermete. But enough about that, I like that idea and hopefully we'll get to see your idea in the near future :cool:

Um....All Continents are surrounded by water. Trust the Thresher driver on this one :)

Umm...all of them have water around them...
I don't mean the underwater bases are INSIDE the continent, they would be seperate totally from the continents.

I don't think we have enough ppl to add more places to fight.

its good idea.. would love to see the design for some under water bases.
but... its missing the "reason to go there" like the caverns have modules.
what would be the point to go the the underwater bases.. and im sure the devs wont add detail to it.. like they did with the world of Auraxis..
also... underground caverns, underwater bases.. too much underground for me..
needs something else.. the devs needs something thats going to really attract ppl...
i would like a space expanison.. that would be cool.. with
orbital bases.. at least 3 bases.. could be used for injunction with OS strikes.. new technology.. or course vehicles and weapons charging force domes.. or continent domes.. (just an idea)
OR
new empires specific weapons, and vehicles.. armor.. CR5+ BR20+
not knocking the underwaterbases..thats a HOT idea.. . but under has been done.. and look how thats turned out.. lets hope that the new ideas.. they have been talking about turns out for the best.....

Well what about sky bases? eh? Maybe a skybase would give something kickass to the empire that owned it. there could be two or three and it would give pilots something to do.
