Mortars against FOB builds need nerfing
Being a builder is absolutely painful in most games. It takes coordination between around 5 people at the start of the game to get a good FOB going: a pilot, someone with a FOB and a handful of builders to set up a base.
One guy with a tank on the opposite team can obliterate your builds and the people doing it from 2km away instantly.
I build bunkers but they're constantly pummelled. You try to leave them to build and you get mortared. You try to revive builders and you get mortared. If you finally manage to build everything, it's only a matter of minutes before it's all wiped out.
I'm not saying get rid of mortars, but maybe reduce their damage towards the built environment or even add a trophy system that can only be built in FOBs? Or even add the ability to reinforce builds by levels. Maybe up to level 3? It will obviously cost more build points but it would be worth it for balance.
Infantry barely even needs to properly infiltrate FOBs as one mortar tank will inevitably hammer the base enough to the point where you just have to forget about that FOB.
It's a complete pain in the arse for builders and you end up basically having no FOB for the rest of the game. I'm a very build focused player so hot zone attacking doesn't interest me much.
Having denser defences will also incentivise actual infantry attacks on FOBs instead of one guy just waking through the blown up walls of battered base 20 minutes into the game.
Also please make gates repairable!
