I still think a FPS aspect of AH will not be a good thing.....to many great FPS's out already, unless what can be done competes it will be a dud.

I dont know it would open up a new way to defend or take a base. I think it would be pretty cool way to stop the horde.

ehhh....if I want to play a FPS I will play Homefront...or Sniper Elite, something along those lines.....

but it is HTC's company so his decision...I certainly wont stop playing if they add it....

I think HTC can make an FPS sort of game 10 times better than homefront, battlefield, CoD, or an other FPS game out there

IDK if Hitech and his crew could really compete in the FPS category. Would their first attempt be better than other's first attempts? Well duh, they actually have some idea of what they're doing.


But I'm not sure if their first attempt would be the equal of some of the best FPS shooters. I mean Red Orchestra is simply amazing for that type of game.

For those of you that have played it, you'll know what I'm talking about when I say it a lot like a ground-war version of Aces High.


For another matter, the instant they add the Mp-44, its going to be THE weapon of choice. The only thing that could even kind of compete would be the BAR, the Bren, and maybe the Japanese type 99 and Russiand DP.
You started this thread and it was obviously about your want and desire in spite of your use of 'we' and Google.

I think y'all are over evaluating this. The only element of AH that this proposed FPS style will affect is the base captures. The mechanized aspect will remain in all of its hording, spawn camping, furballing glory. Compared to dedicated FPS's id say this would be pretty basic gameplay. I just see this fps as a means of spicing up a base capture; I don't think it will take over the game or anything.

Not likely, a small company named ID Software has the lead on "FPS" first attempts being better then anyone else.

But since ID software is in Texas, pretty sure Hitech could just get some info and tips from the boys down there and develope Quake's'high.

FPS already exists in Aces High.

You can take out a field gun with the pistol at close range and kill enemy planes as well as other chutes.
