Keep them, it makes low alt dogfighting more challenging.

But like others have said, prune them around the bases with long runways, but leave them up around the dirt fields. This will encourage people to take the jets and heavy bombers away from the front.

Of course, the vehicle lethality should be a bit less.

The trouble with the Maples
And they're quite convinced their right
They say the Oaks are just too lofty
And too sexually uptight.

Ackkk, it pains me to know many did not get this.

RUN to your nearest CD store and buy HEMISPHERS by Rush.

Not to get this post, but because you don't deserve this dose of this fantastc CD.

Rush, The Trees

There is unrest in the forest,
There is trouble with the trees,
For the maples want more sunlight
And the oaks ignore their pleas.

The trouble with the maples,
And they're quite convinced the're right
They say the oaks are just too lofty
And they grab up all the light.

But the oaks can"t help their feelings
If they like the way they"re made.
And they wonder why the maples
Can"t be happy in their shade?

There is trouble in the Forest
And the creatures all have fled
As the Maples scream "Oppression!"
And the Oaks just shake their heads

So the maples formed a union
And demanded equal rights.
"The oaks are just too greedy;
We will make them give us light."

Now there's no more oak oppression,
For they passed a noble law,
And the trees are all kept equal
By hatchet, axe, and saw.

My mom was this total hotshot symphony type pianist... and she taught me two songs that I asked her (cant read, so it was "do this and now do that")... One was Moonlight Sonata and the other one was the Trees. Was kinda funny watching her listening to Rush then figuring it out on piano so she could show me. It took probably three or four... erhm... sessions... and I was no doubt high for most of em...

Mom, piano, trees, weed... Quite a memory.

G'bless her.

I did not quite get it, you want Saw, and two other guys, someone "Hatchet" and "Axe", to whine about trees?

Saw, are those 2 guys your frieds?

Errr can we not just extend the runways? seems to me they are too short for Lanc ops anyway..

Wilbus · « **Reply #36 on:** October 06, 2001, 05:59:00 AM »

It's all about learning to take off, a lanc can start on a shorther distance then the runway, with full load, so can teh 262, learn the trick, and do it. The trees in this worl have to take too much crap from us humans, it's time they give something back, save the trees! Keep the trees!

One more "tree bug" :

When shooting 75mm HE, shells get cought by tree branches.
It adds another dimension to tank shooting, but it is totally unrealistic.
Shell either would continue its flight, or it would explode when hits tree and damage/destroy it.
Just make trees "transparent" to shells.

At least please:

- remove trees at end of runway
- group trees in landscape, with clear patches in the landscape

Keep the trees , but remove them at the end of the runways.

By the way. make trees and sheeps softer.

If I run a tank over a group of sheeps, I want some broad sheep and no "You have crashed"!

I'm kinda wonderin'..

Is the ground full of trees beacuase it's the tropical forest isle of Mindano? Will we be able to see plains in other terrains? Will we get other trees in the Baltics? (Palm tree in the Baltics seem quite erm.. you know ..

)

Hey Creamo,you are surprised that no one picked up on the Rush thing?Hell most of the people that play this game weren't even born when "Hemispheres" came out lol.

Creamo · « **Reply #42 on:** October 06, 2001, 09:14:00 AM »

Keep em. Perhaps a little fine-tuning so that contact damage is graduated... ie, grazing a palm with a wing tip should not equate to instant death, but wingtip damage. I love the trees

Creamo · « **Reply #44 on:** October 06, 2001, 09:20:00 AM »

Lol, just looked at the post. Your kids smoke pot! What a great fun time.

Paper route (notice the bag), just enough to get some Hawaiian and a Ted Nugent 8 Track.

Whooohoo!
