It has come to my attention that some new shield type walls should be implemented in to the game, as well as shield gates. This would provide towns with protection, make them look nice, and can even give towns a meaning to put there town type as stronghold, which it should be limited to that city type. Also these shield walls can only be torn down by OVERT MILITIA, and regenarate after a while. They should be vuln to only blast type weaponary, allowing more commandos to join the fray. And should allow people to come through the gate unless they are banned.


Voice your opinion on this, because hopefully it is a good idea and the devs will listen.

Sounds like it could work, but I can see it being abused (e.g. people with houses inside being banned from the city) and it wouldn't doo much good if the city had a shuttleport.

u cant be banned if you are a citizen in the city



But i like the idea of a wall that adds to the GCW and gives a purpose to strongholds.

Make it so the walls gradually decay (can not be knocked down by a player) along with city decorations (gardens and statues) and I am game.


That would be a pretty good place to put architect profit, especially if resource cost was good low enough to allow for PA's and Politicians to swing to non-city Architects for there needs.


as for walls and gates being placed, that is an interesting problem for SOE to overcome, and may not be worth the effort for them to do it.

Wall would be a nice idea but i can see it being used to greef other players....nothing like setting up walls around somones house you dont like


they would have to make them destroyable ..... but just like base turrets if you can destroy them they will get destroyed all the time while you are sleeping...


I dont know....they would have to be planed very well

You can't be citybanned unless you're close either. It's stupid.


You can be banned from a structure without being there. Why not city structures?

Hello! First post here on the Cities and Housing forum. I have a question about making walls in cities. I have seen a few screen shots of walls made around player cities using houses put next to each other. I was wondering if anybody on here has done that and can explain the process, its seems like a really intresting thing to do for a city. Thanks for any replys

There are certain kinds of houses that you can place right next to each other. (Naboo mediums I know, I've heard things about generic mediums too.)


But if you're looking for functionality, you won't get it. They're changing it so that you can get through the middle of the houses. (This is on TC right now.)
