The way iraqis do....?
« on: January 03, 2007, 04:48:07 PM »
Is this the future of AH? Suicidal bombing? Killing Tigers with jeeps?
Somebody, pls, tell me how this is possible.
Take a look at this:


Jeep killing Tiger

I donīt care about perks..or whatever...I have them enough...
What I do care....is the fair play.
Does HTC care about that?

I assume your film if of a Jeep rolling into a Tiger and killing the "pilot," thus destroying the tank.

There is no way at this point to resolve this fairly. With the way the internet lags, you may see a tank right in front of you that's actually 200-400 yards away. If you hit him and stopped on your front end and he saw you sitting there 200 yards away on his front end, then shot you while you tried to back away, you'd be very, very pissed.

Actually from a discussion I had with HTC HQ sometime back the problem is -

If they enabled collisions for GVs which would stop that happening it has a nasty side effect.
Essentially because of lag and the slow closure rate of GVs it would be possible for two vehicles to get locked together.

Wait wait wait, now I remember. It's here on the Convention recording. The vehicles would either lock together or they'd fly apart at a couple jillion miles an hour like Tigers do vs trees.

"a couple jillion miles an hour"

Could the programmers not make it so that if the player is driving a tank, MG fire has no effect on him? Or have it so that the inflicted damage value beneath a certain threshold is rounded down to zero?

I will give HT the appropriate programming code, in ZX Spectrum BASIC, for free:

120 IF plyvh=2 THEN LET .50cldm=0
130 BEEP 0.5, 9
140 PRINT "Ping"

And somewhere you would have some LET statements to make the T34, Panzer IV, and Tiger equal to 2 and the other vehicles 1 or 0. The other armoured vehicles had thinner armour. High Tech Creations needs me.

ROFL

With my ancient memories of programming the   VIC20 and C64 with BASIC and such things, I would recommend following corrections of encoding to the next patch:

>if, jeep=go>in>me>goto next
>if, not>next
>restore>next
>if, not>next
>wait>next
>if, not>next
>goto hell>loop l=1

:D :rofl


:aok

I want to stress that, although Hitech Creations can use this particular snippet of code, I am currently applying for a patent for this general logical technique.

The patent is entitled "Method for performing a conditional argument with subsequent multi-media output" and I expect the royalties to come gushing in real soon now.

What I do care....is the fair play.
Does HTC care about that?


Fair play?  How about camping 200 yards from the VH and racking up 15 kills?  Try dropping bombs on the hangar, and they can't spawn Jeeps to whack your tiger...

I am not afraid to admit that I have done this on a few occasions, and laughed.

I just watched the film, and it occurs to me that the only thing more ridiculous than being able to drive inside a tank and smear it's occupant, is that tank being able to sit in one spot and kill every enemy vehicle that tries to launch from that field.

Fair play indeed, zuum got his just reward.

well from what i understand it is perfectly legit.

if the tank operator allows a jeep to come that close he deserves to
get a grenade tossed in.

If you stop and think about it, the last place you want to be when a tiger or any other vehicle cooks off would not be in an open, light wieght, unarmored jeep.So a good way to stop this is to have the jeep go up in flames too.:aok
