DUST Search - [REQUEST] Make the MCC more like a Carrier.

The Black Jackal wrote:

The MCC, Mobile Command Centre, strikes me as a mobile base of operations. Therefore, it should have landing pads for Dropships, Vehicle Drop Systems, as well as the current Infantry Jump Bay.

This would, of course, come with some form of internal structure to get around 'safely' while in the MCC...

For example, You spawn in the CRU on the MCC... this is a large, barracks-like room. Off this room, there are a few passageways, leading to a few different sections of the internal structure.

A) Resupply Room - Basically an MCC-fitted Supply Room that acts exactly like a Supply Depot (For Infantry Only).

B) Vehicle Deployment Room - Set in a Ventral Bay (like the current drop area) the Vehicle Bay lets you 'call-in' your vehicle from the on-board stock in the MCC itself. After it's created, and you enter it, after 15 seconds, the vehicle bay doors open and the vehicle is dropped into the combat zone. (Automatic Inertial Dampeners kicking in as it starts.)

C) Dropship Landing Pads - Situated on the top of the MCC, these act just like the Vehicle Bay, except the Dropships come from the inside out of hatches to be parked on the pads.

In the future, with Player-Owned MCCs, it may be possible to fit more utility rooms, making the MCC a valuable asset, and not a semi-automated objective.

Magpie Raven ZionTCD Unclaimed. 216	Posted - 2013.05.05 21:22:00 - [32] - Quote Ive posted a few threads about MCCs used on gas planets that basically follow this concept. A largeer MCC with landing pads and stuff that ferry troops to the floating facility or to the enemy MCC to destroy. The trick is to make it big enough to be able to have a battle on it. But not too big.

Or open the entirety of the map, add eve pilots to the MCCs and give them guns. Let the games begin.

Basically, what we need is to make them the full 300 meters stated originally, because right now we have a placeholder that's about 150 meters, if that. Then make them like Battlefield 2142 Titans. Fixed.
The Black Jackal The Southern Legion RISE of LEGION 476	Posted - 2013.06.03 23:36:00 - [36] - Quote I'll agree we need to make them larger, more imposing, and more capable. I find it amusing that people don't want to be able to fire from them, but it's about as valid tactic as Sniping (Railgun, or Sniper Rifle Versions) But with little ability to move yourself. (The MCC Pilot will eventually be able to move the MCC slowly I would hope. Raining Death from on-high is a viable tactic. but make the guns have excessive spread, and minimal (or no) zoom.. so all you take is pot shots. Good for suppressive firepower, but lacks any accuracy.

The DICE guys did that in 2142, and it was pretty good. In skirmish perhaps, instead of hold the ground and wait, it could b Break the other guys MCC shields so you can board and Blow the crap out of it, as a way to end the game earlier? Or you could hold the NULLs and Bombard it to hell, but that takes a while, and it would be fun having some boarding action!

The Black Jackal The Southern Legion RISE of LEGION 602	Posted - 2013.07.03 00:42:00 - [44] - Quote Asset bump. Let's make the MCC useful!
