I think Huma is referring to some of PlanetSide's structure where a tree is actually slapped smack in front of a turret, which is indeed ridiculous.
On the other hand, I'm under the impression that everyone else (the "It's fine" people
) thinks that he wants all bases, towers, outposts and bunkers to have no rocks, trees or any cover at all within those "realistic" 50 meters, which in turn would be just as ridiculous in terms of gameplay.
You can't expect the enemy to come rolling with ground transport all the time, so no cover = bad, but I don't think no cover was the point.
On the other hand, even if anyone thinks no cover is fine, you can't expect engagements to be that much bigger than in PS1 - there will be more contestable territory, so the fighting will likely be bigger (more people), but proportionally spread out across an actual "front line".
