Manned MG nests

[Callsign112]

We need manned MG nest for both modern and WWII era.

There is so much that is needed. MG nests is certainly one of them. 

Right now there is not object that depicts a regular fighting position. We only have hardened bunkers, which are difficult to deal with when you're using anything less than a tank.

Part of the problem might be that we don't currently have an infantry model that could use map objects. Hopefully that will change, and we will see the CA aspect gain more traction.

I agree we need better fighting positions

Has very dificult build a AI with use map object, that require rebuild the engine to a FPS Style. ED actually has build new 3D infantry models, but interect with objects and building has other level very hight with require dedicated FPS phisics / AI infantry teams.

Yeah there is certainly a lot of work that would have to be done to get more usable Ai infantry, although I remember seeing an ED promotional video some time ago that showed infantry crawling towards an objective. I think it was a promotion for combined arms, but I'm not sure. I just remember there was an assortment of ground vehicles. 

The single standing pose we have currently is very limiting. I would be a huge improvement if infantry were able to crouch/prone.

I'm not remember see any infantry crawling on DCS videos. Actually prone, cronch has none implement and any similar to them has only show on firing animations, none functional.

@Silver_Dragon, it is possible that what I saw was not related to DCS World, but it definitely caught my attention as something to look forward to. The video was like a combined arms promotion for a campaign, and one of the other features I remember was a bridging vehicle that would allow tanks to cross wide trenches. Is it possible there is a mod like that? I have searched and searched on YouTube, with no luck.

I just want the feature that are already in to be polished out and fixed where needed, before even thinking about adding new ones.... CA is such a cool concept, so sad that it is on the backburner
