Title: Wheres the fps
Post by: bkbandit on April 02, 2006, 12:16:22 AM
Some guys want it some guys dont but adding some first person shooting into AH would bring alot more to the game. I hate droping those stupid troops that get lost, or get them selfs killed.  People say that this is a flight sim and theres no need for fps but at the same time why do we have tanks. They added the jeep and to me thats a perfect gv to run troops into a town to fight off enemy troops halo style.  They can just bite off of the millions of other fps's out there(halo). Just create a generic ww2 soldier not a german or american just a plane troop. Give him a choice of what types of weapons he carrys(rifles,machine guns,gernades) and send him on his way. Instead droping morons you can drop actual players to cap a base or criple it by taking out hangers or supplies.  


Tell me what you think

Yup. Though, if you really WANT to run around with a gun in your hand, you can always bail out.

If its a straight air combat game you shouldnt have any gvs, you shouldnt be able to work a field gun and you dont even need bombers.  GVs add more balance to the game.  You guys are quick to attack a guy driveing a gv but them guys pull there wieght.  I seen gunners on cvs bag 10+ kills.  I dont care if he aint that good of a dogfighter. Like those bomber junkies, the boy is useless in a fighter but he could knock out a base quick.  Plus i like haveing more variety in the game, ill escort bombers or fighter sweeps all day but grabing a gun on a b17 or runin a tank gives the game more playable. An addition of fps wont be so out there that it will seriously change the way the game is played.  It will just add to the ground game.

If you get FPS I get a Sherman with a flame thrower and get to watch you run awround burning to a crisp, i'll then run over you.

I was a little out of it that night Debonair.  I believe that was the night 999000 came to Bish and I was laughing while getting shot to pieces sortie after sortie.  Came on here and everything was just as funny.  Something in the water:aok

 That was sure enough funny. It made me shoot coffee out of my nose; then I pictured it...it got even funnier. I would like to do that myself; it would lose it's appeal eventually I'm sure, but chasing down crispy critters & grinding them into paste with a tank.....could we get the *pop-squish* sound effects too?:lol

You can get whatever you want as long as i get to hear the tortured screams of teens running around.


P.S. Can we also be able to rundown troops?  I was going 60MPH one day and thought i'd get some good action running down some troops but nothing, so I machine gunned 'em.  Just isn't as fun:(

I suppose that's why the jeep (and almost every other vehicle and or aircraft) comes with some sort of weapon which fires projectiles. Things fired out of tubes at high velocity have been proven destroyers of men and machines for a very long time. I suspect the idea of steamrollers as weapons of war never took off for the simple reason that shooting things had already proven itself as a viable method for dispatching the enemy.

HiTech stated awhile ago that he would like to eventually add a FPS element by making player controlled paratroopers that can battle it out for the town.  But I think that idea has been placed on the back burner ever since ToD was announced a couple of years ago.

I think the fps would just give you a more complete war.  YOu can have ur fighter jocks, where wheel men in the gvs, and some rough grunts fightin it out.  I mean theres some guys that want subs. i think u need to add fps before u get into naval warfare.
