How about applying same principle as bomber formations to PT's?

Wish I'd thought of that!  Yes, please!

The GV formation control system used in OP Flash Point is almost perfect.

No way on GV formations!

Can you imagine, a GV mission of 20 men, with 4 GVs per? :) The resulting stream of tracer fire and shells raining down on towns would turn the game into a Kuwati-style land grab!

Sheesh, I'd rather have another spitfire modeled (almost) :D

 Can you imagine the chaos you could cause at a spawn point with that firepower?  :D  Or... one buff over the GV spawn dropping eggs as mission launches... muhahahaha

What would be interesting would be for HTC to model guys running from strafed AI vehicles once they become disabled, a la WW2 Online.

Imagine that, seeing a horde of drones fleeing their tanks like roaches leaving a doughnut when the lights are turned on!

No!  Adding GV formations would be a disaster!  The first fluffy little palm tree sprite to come along would wipe you out.  


Remember, the trees in this game are made of C4 fused to a vibration sensor.  Gently brush your Panzer up against these explosive trees, and you're history.  Imagine what it would be like, trying to thread 3-4 GVs through a forest?  Madness!
