its too quiet
« on: August 31, 2008, 04:59:35 PM »
how about some stuff going on on the ground? civillians,tractors in fields,a few cars,stuff like that.Sheep are ok but surely there is more to put in to add a little variety.

I wonder how you'll hear civilians or tractors when you're in a cockpit 10K up in there air, or have the roar of a tank engine and tank cannon blairing away. How would you hear it over the air raid siren, or bombs falling, or hangars exploding? The game doesn't seem quiet at all unless you hide back at one of the back bases for hours.

Bail out, stand in front of a "Soon to be porked airfield", and watch all the noise and activity around you.

Well if you're doing what the game was designed for, you wouldn't need activity.

I'm sure civilians would be happy to stroll around town whilst the base and town are getting ground pounded.

how about animals?... Some animated deer would be nice.. Been done in a flight sim before and it's kinda heart warming to fly around an airfield and see a deer run across the airfield. Just that extra "something".

I quite disagree... I'd love to put a 75mm HE rounds into a VW Bug goin to the mini mart at the corner of Center and 44th  :aok

Wal-Mart in the middle of a battle seems fun.
