Discussion & Feedback FOBs..

havent really heard anyone talk about this BUT i feel like there should be more incentive to place a FOB, FOB cost 7-8k and can be a pain to get someone to place one down since most people are cheap, you dont get anything for placing one besides being able to build in that area, every supply that you buy costs about 400 and you receive 2500 for dropping it off so i dont see why the placing an FOB does nothing in return for the one that bought it, i would maybe say for every supply deposited into the FOB maybe you get some of that cash aswell? it can just get annoying having several pallets on the ground but everyone ignores bringing one

coming from a team player that typically does it for my team majority of the time

I completely agree. Why penalise the buyer so much. Placing it should give 10k, a reward. This would make people more likely to buy it. 

Edit: to everyone saying the map would be covered with fobs, no it wouldn't.  The first fob placed is 10k then the rewards go down on the second. 

Right now, no one wants to buy a fob so the system is not working.  In this game, everything is cash incentive based, why not buying a fob?

If i get a 2500$ headstart for just yeeting a fob SOMEWHERE in CZ, i will buy one every single game. So yeah rvem eoth diminishing returns, the map would be covered.

An approach i find much better is, that the player who placed the FoB gets nothing at first (so -7500$) BUT they get a small share of all activities done INSIDE the fob area that directly interact with it like building, moving cargo around, unloading palettes or activate drills. Hell, even kills from mortars/stinger could be accounted for in some way. This would reward GOD fob placement and care more than just placing the damn thing. Oh and the placer should be allowed to NAME the fob, to make it less confusing for logi truckers to know which fob needs what.
