God Mode
« on: August 26, 2009, 08:22:37 AM »
Remove god mode from soft guns.  I'm  getting tired of manned guns shooting over things that they cant see through.  I can't do that crap in my tank. :aok
They call it "common sense", then why is it so uncommon?

Seriously?  This is possible?  This has never caused me a problem, but remove the ability I say. :aok

Yep it's very useful to GTC players.  They can give a nearly omniscient real-time bird's eye view of the near battlefield over range vox.

I think the F5 god mode is similar in purpose to F3/F5 in bombers.... to simulate the view of people who aren't necessarily there, in the game, but would be. And for this purpose F5 god mode is pretty useful in a field gun. Trying to hit something using it, however, is extremely difficult, if it's even possible.

Near impossible to hit any vehicle in God mode. Keep in mind though the soft gun can nail targets from 6K out easily. With the new terrains it is much harder to see GV's now until they are almost on base. Where as before I could tell what you are from God mode the moment you spawned in most cases, when spawn is visible in God mode.

I suggest the first target you go for is the soft gun in future just bring some HE rounds that way you don't even need to get a direct hit.

God mode is useless for aiming manned ack and if a CV is close enough for God mode to help its probably already at the bottom of the ocean.
If you like the Sick Puppy Custom Sound Pack the please consider contributing for future updates by sending a months dues to Hitech Creations for account "Chalenge." Every little bit helps.

F5 is very useful against GVs in manned ack, for spotting first, then it allows you to accurately readjust your fire even if you dont have line of sight. whether it should be allowed is another thing.

I can see the justification for F3 in crewed buffs, dont think F5 should be enabled though.

Well I started this thread because a few guys do a rather good job of aiming in god mode.  When I found out about it, I tried it and have racked several kills.   :angel: I have quit doing it because I hate it when I hear the thunks from rounds but can't even see the base.  So I know It must really tick the guys off that I have killed.  F5 is there for field guns and it is kinda cheating. F5 for tower sure but for a gun.....nope.  The day I found out about it the guys were shooting from one v base to another and knocking down hangers.  I was like who figures this crap out..... :confused:

Since none of us are gods, despite what some arrogantasses think, there should be no "god view"...
