Airfield layouts
« on: March 21, 2008, 07:17:46 AM »
It would be nice, purely for variety's sake, but to have different airfield layouts for the different size airfields.  Instead of just the one small airfield, how about one that the strip runs due North/South?  Or for the large one, how about instead of all strips crossing in the middle, they have a layout similar to a right triangle?  Or for medium fields, perhaps two parallel runways?

Would be nice visually and would mix things up tactically.

i'd rather not, i have a hard enuff time remembering where evrything is on the current ones  >_<
If i said anything to offend u, plz ignore it.

also, if i say anything stupid or rude, it was probobly too late at night and i was half asleep, so ignore that too.

oh yeah, its all just my opinion, so if ya dont care, just keep it to urself, cuz if u dont care, i sure wont!

i dont like the idea of changing ALL the Airfeilds all over again. HTC is not gonna do it obvisously. Maybe, They could name the Airfields for MA. maybe a squadron could, have there own personal airfeild. you could customize the looks, planes and Tower. For the AVA (or SEA's screenshots), you could have AirFeilds that were used in WWII. HTC could try to cover every aspect of the Orginal Airfields and transform it into a AH Field. maybe have little mini guys in the autoacks for show and etc. just sayin

i wasnt saying it wouldnt be kool, it would be.  its just hard to be useful in a capture raid when i cant find anything other than hangers reliably...  the VH is the hard part for me, and thats the most important one.

The idea is not that every field would be different, but that there would be 2 or maybe 3 layouts for each base.  They would all have the same basic elements based on the size (all smalls would have the same number of FH, VH, BH, troops, etc).  It would just be that their arrangement on the field and the runway orientation would be different.  It could even tell you which type it is on the Base status sheet (not just small, medium or large, but the layout type).  Would be really interesting visually and tactically as well.  Would take more thought with Buff runs or vehicle assaults.

Well, just a wish for the wish list  :D

Well Given The Small Modifications, We've Introduced, I Think HTC Could Do, However They Won't... They Never Do :cry

I agree, it would be cool, but it would be time consuming, for both HTC and our squad map maker. personally i wouldnt mind if they changed them,if and only if HTC would make the icons the way the runway is setup, now in some of the big maps my squad goes out for bombing runs assuming that the hangars are in the direction of our squad maps, but then they arnt and that totaly screws up the run and it serves no point, shure it ads an elemnt of us having to have a recon plane but then that flashed base and they know were coming. It would be cool but lots of work would have to be done by both HTC and Jok3r1 not joker2 our squad map maker. My .02 they wont do it for time uless the totaly remodeled them like the cvs but I dont see that happening.
