It'd be cool if there was a communication tower for both sides. If it was destroyed, you wouldn't be able to use the radio messages. Maybe even the VoIP, but that might be stupid.
it would be ok, but it would suck if it was at a capable flag, like it sucks when a capable main base is taken, it would suck more if that tower was taken out too.
If there was one, it should be out in the middle of nowhere, and maybe unmarked, to make it harder to tell who's it is, so you could blow yours or the other teams...

I'd just use Teamspeak.
The map sizes in battlefield 2 are pretty small all things considered. A communications tower would make sense if the area was much larger, and some kind of repeater was needed to pass messages along, but as it stands a 10 dollar walkie talkie from radio shack could be used for squad communications. Im sure the military has independant radios that can operate in a range of 5 KM, without the use of a permanent tower.
meh. i think its okay.
one thing that might be awesome is the way to talk to people around you. there should be a talk for an area. "HEY ENEMYS LOOK OUT" *headshot* or something like talk to people in your team around you *in a jeep* " hey shoot at that sniper in the top left of that building"

I meant it might be stupid to take out the VoIP part if you lost the comm tower.SysTray wrote:

Interesting idea, maybe in bf3
Not a bad idea, actually. Maybe lose all commo with UAV/ Scan... can't request anything from commander while it is out. No spottings from the commander either. But then no orders from the commander.. I have known some commanders so annoying I might C4 it myself and take the negative points, just for some peace and quiet while I am killing and shooting!
Coordination can already be easily disrupted by killing UAV, UAV drones and Sat assets. Killing communication by destroying a radio tower would kind of be silly, and here's why:
1. In some games, it's hard to find people willing to repair assets.
2. Too many external programs are used for chat, from teamspeak to MSN voice.
3. With modern technology, person-to-person communication can be had with personal units, independant of any com tower. Also, the maps with the numbers of players on them are too small to justify the need for a radio tower.
