[Conflict Feedback] Supplies are now too plentiful
Feedback, NormalPublic

Description

Supplies are now too plentiful in Conflict. I assume this is something that BI is experimenting with to get the right balance, but I thought I'd mention it anyway.

Supplies are so plentiful now, that other than the initial start of the match there is no logistical challenge at all. This has the effect of bases being massively built up, helicopters being so cheap players crash them and just get another one. There is no "value" to supply now. There is no need to hunt for hidden supply caches.

This is an important feature of the game that requires a careful balance, but given the choice too much supply is definitely better than not enough. Before this Heli update supply used to be so demanding that it was not enjoyable and limited the game experience for every player, so we definitely don't want to go back to that level of supply availability.

I think only the MOB and the large coastal bases should auto supply. Narratively this represents being supplied by sea by your country. Small bases can start with a small amount of supplies initially, with some hidden supplies nearby. However, supplies should be transported to these bases to build them up.

One possible base facility addition could be something like a "Logistics Hub" that enables a small rate of auto-supply to these minor bases, just to have some compromise?
