Dont know if this has been requested before and I dont really feel like searching for 20 minutes to find out.
Anyway, Could we get the troops updated. Give them M1's and Tommyguns instead of the .45's. Give them Infantry BDU's instead of flight suits, and make their little soldier feet move and stop sliding. I doubt this would take much time at all to do and probably wouldnt hurt FPS much or at all. Could update Chutes aswell. Can make the slides on the .45s cycle add a bit more detail to the guy. :rock
-
nahhh who really cares about that. :noid
-
Cycling bolts on machine guns and a cycling slide for the .45 would be a nice feature.
-
Greetings,
Well, no to BDUs - olive drab fatiques and M1 Garands for the M3 Infantry, Olive Drab Field Pants (Devils in Baggy Pants) and Carbines / Thompsons for the Paratroops and field Gray uniforms and the bolt action rifle for the troops in the Ger halftrack.....
Would add a certain level of eye candy to the game.
Regards,

We need Patton riding shotgun in the jeep, too. :D

this is a good idea, it got my approval, it might not be seen for a while tho, that is kinda a lower point of the game though when they slide instead of walking, maybe be a guy defending the map room wold be interesting, catch many ppl of guard
-
Yeah, with all of the realism put into the flying aspect of the game the DOOM look of the infantry kinda puts a damper on things.

We already have guys defending the map room from time to time.
It always pays to strafe the map room before you drop on it. :aok

Kinda gives an insight on what the priority in Aces High is, though. ;)
Maybe it'll come but there's a lot on HTC's plate getting CT to work without the little stuff yet.

I think it would be interesting if the "mission" of the troops could be expanded a little. Give the ten troops Garands, a bazooka and a BAR with the ability to destroy a building set, or one aa position, if any still stand in the town. If a squad of ten destroys a building they could not be reassigned to go to the map room. But another set could take the map room. It would still take a full ten man squad to accomplish any mission, like destroy a building, or take the map room, so the town still would have to be very near down, or a dead squad member will render that squad mission null. Some sort of proximity detection would determine if the squad went to a building set that was still up or not - i.e. if they were released closer to the map room, then they'd go to the map room and not the building set. So that would mean being careful about where you release them too.
But as Arlo says, I can't imagine seeing HTC put much time put in on troops. But maybe some day.
-
This sounds nice, however I would really enjoy seeing the troops using those guns instead of playing police officer, "Stop! I'll shoot!"
-
I'd like to see much bigger chutes!!
That way maybe HTC could sell advertising space on them!!
Coca Cola will buy space ANYWHERE!
Maybe Viagra?
Or you could have your squad logo on your chutes.
For a price.
Its all about the marketing gentlemen.

You know boner, I think more people enjoyed AH because it was a break from the commercials. I would dread to up a spitfire and have this type of a sortie:
SYSTEM: Your takeoff roll was brought to you by
SYSTEM: Tylenol, because every bump hurts as hell!
- - -
SYSTEM: Your now used ammunition was brought to
SYSTEM: you by Viagra, because your target wants
SYSTEM: it all!
- - -
SYSTEM: This kill was brought to you by American
SYSTEM: Airlines, we know why you fly.
- - -
SYSTEM: Your failed touchdown was brought to you
SYSTEM: by your local Suicide Hotline, because your
SYSTEM: life is valuable to us.

Product placement ads! Giant bill boards on hillsides, corporate sponsorships for the top players. Planes plastered with ads looking like nascar racers, drone planes pulling ad banners through furballs......product endorsements on channel 200, airfields named after corporations, like Pepsi Aerodome or Budweiser Tank Town, wow, I think you're onto something here.....
