After playing the Starhawk beta, i have to agree.
The best tactic in the game was to place an inconspicuous bunker near the enemy base, and spam rockets at their buildings. Eventually you just kill their whole base if they don't deal with you.
Now imagine planetside, and 100+ players shooting rockets at a building. Either buildings would never die, or they would die instantly.
I'm not against destructible buildings and structures, but you would have to design gameplay around that feature. It's not something you add to the game very easily.
I do think Generators/Doors and other important objectives could be added to the game though.
