Static points are great...but...what if they moved?
Lets say you are hacking a point and an enemy throws a RE on it,and detonated...
What if...objectives could take damage?Going offline while it slowly repaired...causing another previously dormant objective to come online to cover for it? Since it's electronic fluxes would do damage too.
Lets also say there were between 5-30 (randomised) dormant objectives per map,and they activated seemingly at random when an active one was disabled....
I think redlining wouldn't be so easy anymore.And maps would feel fresh and new again.

This intrigues me

but a few things

1.what if on a map there is three null cannons active at any one time
And by pure luck the three null cannons that are ready to hack are one the attacking side
that creates an uneven playing field for the defending team

2.or what if one team purposefully destroys the null cannons till the ones near their side are the only active ones

3a.and let's not forget that the null cannons are spaced far apart and having 30 of them would require a extremely large map and 3b. each null cannon needs an outpost and as we all know CCP said that they can't put too much in here
3c.1 large socket and 2 mediums is 3d.the most they can manage at the moment

IDK about the null cannons physically moving....the rest is....quite awesome!

I can see a team being redlined but a few mercs manage to break out and get into position. A SL calls in an OB and takes out there own home point in order to prevent the enemy from spawning there. A new point becomes active and the group that escaped immediately hacks it. The whole team is now free from the redline and is able to quickly attack any point they want while the enemy struggles to catch up.

OR

A scout ninja hacks a point and then sets up RE's in hidden areas safe from fluxes. If the point is hacked by the enemy the scout can detonate the RE's leaving the point useless and effectively altering the flow of battle.

Question

Will rep tools and/or Rep hives effect the repair rate of these cannons?

Now would you be able to destroy dormant null cannons?

Here is what I think

1.There should be multiple different locations that could be used for all objectives.....( the hack point should be put in random spots around where they already are)
Im going to use the bridge map as an example since everyone will know what I'm talking about...
The hack point for the null cannon could be across the bridge right next to the cannon or under the bridge.....

2.The hack points should take damage not the cannon
Kinda like putting in the virus then destroying the console so nobody can stop the upload

3.Tactically this would play a big factor and make it feel like you are actually performing a task instead of just holding o

4.I would also like to see destructable walls and roadblocks like in mag ....or make certain inanimate objects have the ability to be destroyed.....
I'm going to use the bridge map as an example again....the crates along the bridge could be given HP values(rather high mind you) and moved(by the devs not players) to prevent vehicle movement.....unless the vehicles destroy them which would take time and make the tanks vounerable.....or a player could place a demolition charge(I guess make it an equipment that takes time to arm and detonate and can be disarmed) that will destroy it.....
These crates could also be repaired (for minimal wp to prevent farming)... once destroyed they will disappear( a neat idea is the remnants stay there and if repaired to full armor will make the crate reappear)

Depends, flux grenades, REs and a missile tank or two, a squad could possibly pull it off

1.Team covers dormant objective.

2.Has tank shell active objective.

3.Then other team does the same.
