Ability Spawn a foot soldier
« on: March 27, 2006, 02:37:40 PM »
Since we now have the ability to shoot our side arm after bailing out, why not take it to the next logical step?  Allow players to spawn the pilot without the plane, and with a rifle (or other selectable weapons, such as a bazooka, or a submachine gun for perks:D).  Sure, you can spawn a plane and then bail out, but you can't do that from GVs.  For that matter, it would be great if we could dismount for a GV, crawl up to a ridge to recon with field glasses, then crawl back and remount.  Finally, when are we going to get artillery, or the ability to call in artillery strikes?  Just wondering...

No thanks. Not at this point in time. Play WWIIOL for foot soldier fun.

I agree with this idea, I've said this before. We don't need the interactive first person type gaming yet - but the ability to climb out of your panzer to try to spot that darned Tiger which is on a hill far away and then climb in again. The ability to pick up a downed pilot to return him/her to base (so they can collect their perks), that'd be cool. And maybe dropping off a bazooka as a trap from an M3.

I'm not sure how a sniper would fare though - maybe one on one against other snipers in the trees or in the towns.

None of these have to be rendered significantly better than the stick men now (although it would be nice ;) )  in order to add more to the game.

Here we are, living on top of a molten ball of rock, spinning around at a 1,000mph, orbiting a nuclear fireball and whizzing through space at half-a-million miles per hour. Most of us believe in super-beings which for some reason need to be praised for setting this up. This, apparently, is normal.

AAAAAAAND I will up a Jeep and slam into you at 60MPH:D   Or run you down in a Panzer and smoosh you under the treads.  They should model blood splatter for shooting down pilots, especially if you are in a GV.

i already sugested troop wars and a special town for troop wars too. so you know im for this idea. i think it only adds to the game. so why not. whats the use of a pistol if it cant even kill a pilot when your right next to a plane, and a pintle on like the m3 and jeep dont do much to  planes either. deffinately want a tommy gun. muahahah
