Title: Crazy idea from a slightly insane man
Post by: flakbait on August 17, 2000, 12:10:00 PM
Just out of sheer boredom, I'd like opinions on this. Skin damage and aerodynamic disruption effects. A 20mm HE round from an MG 151/20 has got to put a nice-sized hole in that thin aluminium skin. Question is, should the effect that hole creates [drag, adverse handling effects, etc...] be thrown in for our enjoyment?

In that same line of thinking, how about sputtering, damaged engines affecting performance, engine fires that may or may not be able to be extinguished. How about damaged radios, preventing any communication via the radio buffer?

Who knows, maybe sometime in the future.

It's possible...
check out B17-2 !
Has lots of damage effects and affects.

BUT to do THAT online with lots of users....
OK everyone get a T1 link and an Athlon 1 ghz PC with Geforce2 GTS and pay more since HTC would have to get a faster pipe and server.

Sure... MAYBE in another 6 years.

We can dream I guess.

Regards, Snoopi
