Title: Waves
Post by: grizz441 on September 20, 2010, 12:13:50 PM
I'd like to see some big 10ft waves on the coastlines.  This would be nice eye candy and also with that, allow players to roll from shoreline bases with Surfers (perked off course) and Surfboards and ride some wavesss dewd.  You'd definitely attract the online cartoon Surfing community with this, which I hear is massive and untapped.  Discuss pls.

But I also suggest there be great white sharks that can jump out of the ocean and collide with incoming aircraft to deter such cowardly action.  But the great whites won't eat the surfers cuz they are friends in cartoon land.

If HT was to make that effort I'd like to see the giant squid brought back and randomly popping in and pwning a great white or the (future) submarines)

So an old shark and his son are out swimming in the ocean.  They happen upon a bunch of people who're clinging together to wreckage from their ship, which just sank.  The father says to his son, 'Ok, today I teach you to kill people.  Swim around them with just the tips of your fin showing through the water.'  They swim around the crowd of people with just the tips of their fins showing.

'Good son, now, swim around them with a bit more of your fin showing.'  They do this as well, the people are all screaming and frightened...

'Ok, son, now we eat.' and they proceed to devour the people en masse.

After they're done, the son asks his father 'Why did we swim around them for all that time?'

The father replies 'They taste better without all the crap in them.'

Now, back to the picture, ye gods, that has to be a 'shop, right?  Right??

That is why I do not swim in the ocean.  It is the shark's home.  He doesn't come to my house, I'm not going to go into his.

Wiley.

Thats not a shark, it looks like a dolphin, look at the tail, its horizontal and flat. Also, look at the dorsal fin.
Dolphins sometimes like to 'surf'.

I will endorse this idea on two conditions:

1.  The wave size and direction is determined by the wind direction. This way one country's waves will be better than another country's waves and we will all get to see threads about how the Rooks always have better waves than the Knights and the Bish don't even have waves at all - EVAR. Anything that will facilitate the production of tears should move to the top of the wishlist. If this wave idea has this element, tears will surely flow and that is good.  Very good.  

2.  Task groups can produce waves if brought close enough to shore. Will this produce tears? Oh yeah. Nuff said. 

Discuss.

I forsee this technology being used in a future FSO. It shall be called "Battle of the Thousand Year Storm". Instead of Axis and Allies, we will have teams Bodhi and Special Agent Utah.

Please make this happen HTC.

Alot of time has to be put in to add waves and wind direction of the waves and the waves moving the moon and vice versa. also adding surfer Nazis would take time as well as all the other BS mentioned.

How about spend time making a damn He 111.

If your serious about wave rendering there has been many papers etc... on the subject and I'm sure you can find talks on youtube & PPTs about it from GDC & Siggraph, etc..  and other conventions.
