Use Aces High's Clutter for Camouflage on GV's
« on: August 10, 2013, 08:30:53 PM »
When you are in the hangar and choosing your load out, you could check the box for Camouflage. The Camouflage option would cost you an additional 5 per cent of the perk cost for that particular vehicle. Non perked GV's would pay nothing. If you get bombed with camouflage on you only lose half of the perks. This would be similar to insurance because you always have to pay a deductible on a claim.   :D There would be less risk for heavy armor tanks. You can take down ords at the nearby air fields, but there are always pilots that will fly two sectors just to bomb GV's. We would see heavy armor tanks leave the pavement.

When you are stopped with engine off, the top portion and the sides of your GV are covered with Clutter and you do not display an enemy icon. If you were shut down in the trees or behind a set of large berms you would be difficult to detect by a/c or GV.

Clutter would have to be on for any planes at or below 800 feet.

The perk system works. We see every type of GV being used in AH, but the perk system is not  balanced between GV's and a/c. I think this would help level the playing field for GV's.

If you have suggestions or ideas on how to implement camouflage in AH or a better idea for modifying the perk system please leave a post.

 The problem is guys like me with low frame rate that turn off all the ground graphics so I can play and I can't see the ground clutter anyway. So all I see is trees and the rest of the ground looks like green finger paintings of a 6 year old. Other GVs are very visible to me regardless of game foliage because I can't see it anyway.

Need to be detectable... otherwise totally unrealistic that 40 knights could search an area 200 x 200 and still not find the enemy.

It does ave to be the grass you see with clutter turned on, but branches, vines, or other vegetation that helps your tank blend into the local topography as practiced in WW2.
