has anyone noticed?
« on: June 10, 2000, 09:05:00 AM »
ok... last night I was playing offline when i decided not to pay attention to the game and pet my dog... goofy thing to do when you're rolling for a takeoff... anyways... I crashed my b26 but not bad enuf to kill me... I hit enter 3 times and saw this little guy pop up... you can actually move with the litle guy. But in my looong walk back to the hq I started thinkin. Wouldn't it be cool if the lil guy was actually animated a lil more. and maybe if he was drawn a little prettier. and if you could actually use that rifle. maybe make the structures so you can't just pass through em.
Then I thought wow!!!! that would make it like infantry! add a few moves like dropping into the prone and you got it!!! since they are adding the m3... what if you could  ride in it as a passenger? or be one of the guys jumpin out of the c47? be able to use a few things like a grenade... and you have a completely new part of AH!!! Think of how many players that would bring!!!! Full playability! I would pay quite a bit to play that since that is the one thing that all sims are missing. A sim that encompasses all of the aspects of war... cool

Infantry simulation?---go to WWIIol, this is a flight simulator.

Why waste resources on an animated guy? or are you going to chute yourself only to run a little in the country?

I would like to see red hit sprites when a chute is shot.  In lue of the white ones we have now.  Also,  I popped some f4u-1c pilot's chute the ther night and it took like 10 cannon hits to kill him.  Shouldn't he pretty much be gone after 2 or 3 hits?

Critter,

You ever build or make something that didn't do everything or wasn't the best it could be but just did as a kind of starting point to see what you could do?  Kinda like a proof of concept kinda thing?

Ya think that maybe HTC hasn't done the same thing from time to time?  

Just because something doesn't, doesn't mean it can't or won't.  All things in good time my friend.

In the closed beta testing for WB 2, one of the "plane" selections was a guy with a .45 running around.  As soon as this was turned on, nobody was flying anymore... we were just running around shooting at things.

..and RAM... take a break from everything that is AH.  I've read your posts in three threads now and felt the tone of every post indicated that it would have been better if you'd not replied.  This one being the best example.

I think having infantry would be great. As shown by the pzIV adding a small feature can GREATLY enhance the game.
