Is there a reason russian "hescos" don't place right next to each other?

Question

Almost 800 hours and it still baffles me, was it intentional balancing or realism decision, or is it unintentional? Would you want to see them changed to NATO hescos?

When your on it. A corner hesco would be nice so you could build a square hesco fort

Think it's more related to technical issues which are slowly being optimized. =)

It doesn't. You still have to fill it with dirt like normal. Using a digger..... that you could have just used instead of this stupid system.

Oh so all it does is lay down the frames? Makes sense now, the video made it look like they were already filled which is physically absurd to think about xd

Yes, they would be empty. My thought is a squad leader could set down one end, which would be fixed, then "drag" the other side and place a hesco wall of whatever length wanted. The hecos would then need to be built up like normal.
