Anybody figured if there are any enter-able buildings it seems weird not having the ability to access buildings.

[The Loot]

None? That's definitely a step back, and it's what EM4 was already lacking.

[Moofers]

Oh EM4 didn't have enterable buildings? I wasn't aware of that, I don't remember though.

Em4 does, Em5 does not. I think he meant it didn't have enough, which I support 100%. Openhouses for the win.

you have to think that most of the open houses came with the mods,la mod for example.im sure there will be mods with enterable buildings.there could also be a patch for it in the future.it is just released and has bugs and im sure alot of stuff will be updated.i would wait some months and lets see what will come

If they plan to release enterable buildings in a future patch, that would explain how buildings dissapear when you zoom in close on them.
One can only hope!

I think the whole building disappear when close thing is an important playability feature. Nothing is worse than having a bunch of tall buildings blocking your view and you have to maneuver your camera around to see your personnel.

Most openhouses came with the game (EM4), I havent seen that many mods with new openhouses.

Ehm... You're wrong mate!

 

Em2, Em3 and Em4 had enterable buildings since their release.

That's really a shame for Em5 to have none of this. 

 

Em5 has just new personnel animations and new graphics.......oh..... I forgot the pepper spray... such a new entry!

 

I hope they'll fix this mess, otherwise they'll face a great defeat on the market

[PaganiZonda760]

theres a pppersray script already for em4.yes thats poor

[Moofers]

Hopefully it won't be to hard to make enterable buildings, just need the developers to release documentation on the editor and update it =P

I agree. After playing around with it enough, having the houses disappear when working a scene helped quite a bit.

I would support it being a game option though, hopefully that wouldn't be too difficult to implement.

I think with any new game engine somethings have to be sacrificed in order to devote resources elsewhere and this was one of them. Im disappointed that we cant enter the high rise buildings as this was something i was looking forward to it would really open up alot of opportunities for game play if we could. Another thing they should have done was allow for a free camera we have larger maps and skyscrapers and we cant even enjoy them. I dont know if they will add things to the game im not that familiar with this developer but i feel like they are really trying to make this game more appealing to the masses so who knows.

Hopefully they can add these functions later, or even have an expansion pack (DLC) with new cities, missions and units?

that better add a bunch more feature before even think of DLC.  The game is rather pathic the way it is currently.

It does need some work, but don't give it all the doubt. they've improved and its a continuous improvement

[riekelt]

Considering the new Lua Scripting language this would be easy to implement, you'd simply need to create a house, name the object whatever you'd like, find out the function to hide a game object, and simply hide the interior underneath the gameobject, make the door interactable, so when you interact with it the script fires, hides the gameobject and kablam, interior.

 

When i find out the function names i'll make a tutorial on it.

I was able to send my firefighters into a building to evacuate people in the bomb in the city center mission

Maybe they improve the game for you but each patch has made my gaming experience worse.
