Dive to Extinguish flames on your plane?
« on: July 27, 2008, 06:12:54 PM »
Well, this has been brought up before, but I'd get called an idiot for bumping it anyways.

We need this feature. The longer your on fire, the more your plane becomes sluggish. You CAN dive to extinguish the flames, but if you dont extinguish them between X amount of time and X amount of time (HTC can model it), you get what happens to any plane right now. If you do, you get more sluggish controls and damage.... etc.

Here lie these men on this sun scoured atoll,
The wind for their watcher, the wave for their shroud,
Where palm and pandanus shall whisper forever,
A requiem fitting for heroes

idiot.... :D

Just another way to see a noob auger and crash... without the burning part. :devil

  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.

As we have it now, fires in AHII are fuel fires. If you notice with every fire there is most likely a fuel leak too. There is no way to put out a fuel fire other than loose all the fuel, in which case you blow up in AHII. The fires you are thinking of is an engine fire which can be put out by diving.

I think we should add engine fires to the game, and make it so when you DO catch fire (engine or fuel) you start to loose peices of your plane rather than just fly around normal and then just blow up.
