Where are all the doors?!

[Vinven]

I've been watching these Planetside 2 videos for a while, and something just dawned on me. Where are all of the doors? Normally in order to enter an enemy base you would have to hack open the door. Now that anyone can capture bases, I assume anyone could open doors too. I just hope that infiltrators can capture bases quicker, as well as open doors quicker if there are any.

Plenty of videos show the laser/plasma w/e doors in place.

I believe they are trying to change the game to keep combat flowing and take out barriers to the fight.

IDK if I like that completely but thats the idea.

True, didnt think about this till now.

This might sound silly, but I always felt cool when like.. one guy is next to the door on the right hacking the door open while the others are aiming ready at the door, ready to breach in. It gave that cool tacticool feeling

The door is a lie.

I know what you mean, and what about ladders on the sides of buildings?
they made sniping fun

You see what happened was there were doors... but each faction sprinkled all of Auraxis with anti door nanites which ate them all and prevent doors from ever being built.

They did that because too many of their spec ops units were getting shot out when entering bases because even while in cloak, a door would open when they passed by it. So naturally to keep cloaks viable, doors had to go.

Mechanical open / close doors are more moving parts. As we seen in PS1, doors being open for some and closed for others means some players are vulnerable while others are safe from fire. I think the PS2 team wants to avoid those issues on PS2.

I think that they should include the door hack mechanic form PS1

[Dropshockmedic]

Didnt played Planetside1 but I want doors too. :-3

[BraavikStal]

No actual doors from what I've seen, but they are putting plasma/laser barricades in place, so in order to get in you'll have to go and find the correct generator.

[Gugabalog]

Thats just as good.

[XxAxMayxX]

it's something that needs to be added for imersion.

[Gugabalog]

Yea, doorways are important. They are also necessary to breaching tactic mechanics to be truly fun.

Turns out it was the only way to get rid of the door bug from PS1
