As I already wrote in the OP, there will be no timer for the MCC's weapon targeting system to further discourage redlining.
Honestly I think that no timer would just encourage people to sit in the redline with range weapons even more. Having a giant missile launcher ensuring no one even has a chance to get close to them is just too much protection.
Just make it a 2 way shield. you cant fire into it and the opposing time cant fire out of it..and then a no timer on mcc weps, so now redline snipers are useless.
I already suggested something like this in an earlier post.

The redline is just generally awful. It's either too protective (old 600m railgun tanks and snipers) where the only counters available are the same tools; or it's not nearly protective enough, such as the Ashlands redline which gives barely any room at all where you're not immediately being violated by a stomp.

I honestly feel that this is an average band-aid type 'fix'. The redlines and maps in general need a very thorough overhaul, otherwise the game will just keep cycling through with the redline being either too good or awful, defensively.
Are you saying the redline or my proposal is a Band-Aid solution?]]> Fri, 13 Nov 2015 19:47:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/2579350 <![CDATA[[Idea] Opposing MCCs Protecting Their Respective Side of the Redline - by Garcon lyfe]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=3029409#post3029409 deezy dabest wrote:

Hmm, good point. What do you think about weapons only activating when players leave the spawn area?
On second thought, I take back what I wrote. The shield that protects the spawn area and block redline OBs would also block damage from all the weapons in the game.]]> Fri, 13 Nov 2015 04:24:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/2578836 <![CDATA[[Idea] Opposing MCCs Protecting Their Respective Side of the Redline - by Terry Webber]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2962607#post2962607 Sun, 20 Sep 2015 22:04:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/2531941 <![CDATA[[Idea] Opposing MCCs Protecting Their Respective Side of the Redline - by Sylwester Dziewiecki]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2947487#post2947487 Carmine Lotte wrote:

They can not move them - do you renember entire problem with supply depot on elevation and vehicles that can not resupply ammo. All structures are part of map and can not be move.

Ideas for the Red Zone: The MCC should kill you for spending too long in hostile territory by sammus420

Some time ago, a fellow DUST player proposed in the thread above to have the MCC's weapons kill any hostiles that enter their territory. It would discourage restricting access to the rest of the map when no CRUs or uplinks are available and maintain focus on defending or capturing objectives. I would like to modify the original proposal in the previously mentioned thread by removing the amount of time before the MCC's weapons start firing at intruders within range, moving back the part of the redline that covers the spawn area below the MCC and have the turrets in the spawn area also protect the perimeter. The modifications would make it harder for redliners to survive in enemy territory and not know where to stay out of range.

What do you guys think?
This is what the game Battlefield 2142 did, the 2 teams each had a titan which the enemy team had to infiltrate and destroy, but the guns were man-able, on the ship and automated.
I think I heard that the Titan could do this. I guess that's one of the reasons it was so popular.
Maybe. It sounds cool, but it also sounds like a lot of math for CCP to do thisSmile. So forget about itRoll.
