Title: What do you think about just having a GV arena?
Post by: DZZ400 on December 09, 2009, 04:04:44 AM
 :uhoh  I have spoken to a few GVs' who would like to take Aces High to a new level... :angel: Well, maybe just another way of not getting bombed by enemy airplanes :x
I was just wondering if you guys would want a (GV),Tank Arena if they could make one? :aok
Your Thoughts: :O

The problem is imo AH does not have true tank battles, most people are only interested in spawn, fire, die, spawn, fire, kill, die, spawn.  Well you get the picture, I really like ground vehicles, but hardly any true combat goes on in AH.  Thats my opinion though.

Back in the H2H days there were some tank only rooms. Was pretty fun when the right folks were in there.  If we ever get a paid H2H setup the possibilities will be endless.

Tonight me and a sqauddie upped in a tank together, I was gunner he was driver. It added a new aspect of gving for me which I was getting bored with, maybe try this for awhile then come back to the arena idea, like Jimmy said players would get spread too thin :salute

A bit more inclusion of the vehicles in the existing maps would make it a bit more fun for all. I enjoy both the air and GVs but the maps right now are more air than ground.Bridges,villages,..something more like Europe in WWII would be in order for ground movement. I think that we will be seeing many interesting changes after calling the office so I am looking forwards to seeing what comes of all the detail changes so far. So even though I am a GV fan I hope that we don't get into an exclusive GV map. Every now and again we need the air cover or deserve to get bombed :t
Best regards

If all the good tankers were in one arena w/o planes, us eggtards would have nothing to do.  :uhoh

the DA is a good place to do gv's if you can find someone to go with you. But yes a gv arena with a specialized map would be fun.

If you want some true GV-only battlefields, I have some goodies waiting for just that. :)

 :aok Thanks for the thoughts... We all know its "Aces High WWII"  :airplane:, but its not just a air-assault.. its both :old:.. Maybe a special night arena for just Gvs in a crowded town or something.... As for me I like them both..but I get tired of just flying... I like allot of diversity, it just keeps it interesting... :bolt:

Thanks for the Info :rock

I want an arena with no fighters or AA tanks so I can bomb GVs without having to worry about getting killed.  :banana:

Integrate and dont segregate.

If you create a GV arena and move the GVs out of the MA then you wount have any AtG tank busting. That means that GV forces wount need any Flak covering them and wount get any planes spotting for enemies. So that means both the GV arena and MA loose out on team play and interaction between different player types. That imho makes for a worse game experience in both arenas.

So idea imho is a bad one.

I do not believe the Ground Vehicles have a matured physics model.  If you pay attention in the way that vehicles sometimes roll over and stop upside down then roll upright after several seconds you will know what I mean.

The GVs appear to be using flight models that have been modifed to represent ground physics.  I also find that the way the damage model acts on GVs is poorly adapted.  If you have ever hit an M3 center of mass with an 88mm cannon at 200 yards with LESS than 30 degrees deflection and ricochette off only to watch the M3 speed away unharmed then you know at I mean.  There are issues there.

In these ways I feel a GV only arena is premature.  But, if the casual gamers like it, and there is enough interest in it, then I do not see why it wouldn't work.
