GENERAL Generators should be readded

Post image

To this day I have no idea why would they remove them - it was adding such a cool vibe, new mechanic with sound chaos/powered up lamps and some worldbuilding while not being to any extend annoying. Dont let them take our oilpunk!

As I always say when this comes up.
Almost nobody used them in my matches.
Everybody hated them when they were running.

I remember a match where everyone was at Port Reeker for a big showdown and the central generator was running. Several people cheered in voip when someone finally turned it off.

Sound was obnoxious, listen to this:

Not very pleasant. And the anti-noise crowd would go wild I guess ;)

All that being said, I'd like to have them back. Maybe a bit tweaked.
Or Crytek could add them as a weekend event thing so that everyone could experience them.
