Title: Runway damage
Post by: amariani on July 07, 2009, 08:21:16 AM: It would be cool if you could actualy damage a runway!

Post by: frank3 on July 07, 2009, 09:09:24 AM: It'll only be cool for one side. Any dweeb with 1 or more bombs can render a small airfield useless.
IMO it would poorly affect the gameplay.

Great now we are going to see hordes of squeekers setting up missions to simultaneously drop every runway in the game... :(

If it's anything like mass troop drops, it would probably crash the server.

Unfortunately it wouldn't take a horde.

Just 3 formations of Lancs would do it!

System: Larry has gleefully landed 9 kills in a 190 of some sort! :rock

how do you figure that? you can take a plane off out of the hangar across the grass, or avoid the craters all together...

the only people it would be detrimental to would be those who still use automatic takeoff... boo hoo :cry

waaaayyy back craters would damage your aircraft if you drove through them at speed..

so runways were a viable target for attack, but now its better.. instead you just get a mass of low earth lancs and suicide jugs and 38s destroying all the hangars.. which is MUCH more enjoyable. :rolleyes:
