I myself have bailed out and shot up an M16 or two. Imagine how cool it would be if it was made that you could really dissable GVs like that, or how much fun it would be if you could drive a jeep to the action, get out and be in the middle of a huge firefight with tanks destroying buildings around you and planes flying 15 feet over your head strafing obsticles in your path. Have you ever been on the runway and some guy in a chute comes up and starts unloading 20 something .45 rounds into your canapy. You and a couple other guys on your squad or anybody who wants to come can pick up a rifle and drive out and take care of the problem in jeeps and trucks. It could be made that you as a troop can lay land mines and hide in bushes, use bazookas to help blast tanks out of one of your friends way. This would make the Pintle and hull guns more useful. I dont think there would be a problem with more people coming to play the game. It would spread the word of AH. So what if they were people who played Medal of Honor or Ghost Recon. You can play games that others dont and still be a nice person. Besides not all people who play FPS are 10 year old kids with high pitched voices, I know alot of people who are 45 and play those games. With the addition of us being Infantry it would deffinantly attract more people to AH, and with more people there would be more requests and input which HT would most likely act on, which in turn would do nothing but improve the game.

glacier girl you are right ...but the only thing to be worried about is the land mines part.....that will create a whole new aspect to the word "vulch"

yea it will, the vulchers really make the rankings meaningless. A guy will have a rank of 20 and cant dog fight to save his life.  But hes the first one on the scene to vulch the hell out of a field or camp out at a spawn point. They just need to fix the scoreing to reflect that. If u looked at a guys score and all the fighters he killed are on the ground it will just let u noe how corny he is.

Right now im in gravesend.

It could be made so that land mines wouldnt work on runways, Because in real life, providing the runways are cement, you wouldnt be able to hide them and any pilot/crew chief would easially see it and remove it. So for the game they just wouldnt explode on runways making it fair to pilots taking off.

Stick the land min in the middle of the runway...... Then hide in a hanger and laugh your tits off as the crashed on take off when they saw them but were going to fast to stop.....

Yeah i know it not a good idea  but I just had to say it

Apparently you haven't been in the TA or a Bish lately.

Fps would just help the game more and make the war more complete. I have a feeling AH wants to do it.  THEY ADDED A JEEP:lol .  Alot of the young kids wont bother with this game because it aint star fox, as soon as they take there beatin the go play somethin else.  Alot of the top guys that play those fps games arent 12 years old. I have seen requested for more tanks and other ground units, it just makes sense to get some troops in the action. The c47 would get more play by pickin up and paradropin soliders not just by gooning. Then u could have troops invade a base plant bombs on there supplys and take out hangers. A group of soldiers will be able to cap a base alone, instead of dropin them retarded goons that run into the field gun.

Im glad so many of you would like to this added as much as I do. Is there a way we can get HTs attention for this subject, It wouldnt be that hard to add this stuff and wouldnt take much time I dont think. Is there a patition or something that we can sign to show how many of us want it added.:aok

A halo rip off or a medal of honor rip would be a solid control format. Theres millions of fps games set in ww2 so it shouldnt be hard to look for somethin to go by. BUt they need to set it so there is just one guy that can talk to the guys in the air, i dont need 20 guys on the ground screamin up at me "kill this panzer". They might have to make some changes to the maps but i really want to see this happen.  Bazookas, machine guns, grenades, land mines, and sniper rifles should be enough to make troops on the ground very dangerous. I guess u just make up a generic soldier and let him pick his gear before he leaves. The c47s jeeps lvts and m3s would play a bigger role with some fps.

I really want to see this happen, if u want to start a patition put me on it.

why have this???? Next thing you know all the CS dweebs will be fighting it out for A WHOLE 2 WEEKS! OMFG 2 WEEKS WOW! Cmon the hull guns are usful for taking out troops. Plus, it would make a brand new vulch system. Next thing you know some 1337 sniper will be picking off pilots in their planes as they try to lift off. Or they will set up bazooka raids to vulch and pork. Plus, how would you like to travel for an hour to get across 3/25ths of a sector?

 Haha, Yes my point exactly, With us being troops, there will be more oppertunities for people in GVs to use them. Hence the Pintle and hull guns will be more usefull.

 This already happens with people in tanks, and Im kinda thinking Tanks are a bit harder to kill than troops.

 Like we said, C47s, Jeeps, M3s, and LVTs would be made to transport people playing as troops, so it wouldnt take any longer to get from point A to point B.

vulchers and spawn campers is somethin that has to be delt with, either the game doesnt allow u to up for a field with x amount of nmes above it, or fix the scoreing system to reflect vulchs. It got to the point where kills mean nothin, a vulcher will rank higher then a real good pilot.

It could be made that when somebody shoots down a plane while its wheels are touching the ground, it could automaticlly count for their attack score and not their fighter score, and have the Fighter ranks hold more weight in the over all rankings. This might be how its already done, Im not sure, just a sugestion.
