Title: Canopy & Collisions
Post by: 100Coogn on June 28, 2011, 10:34:40 PM
Wish when we collided or had a real hard landing. the canopy windshield would shatter/spiderweb or even just crack a little.

The head is often removed when colliding in the canopy area thusly you've missed the "spider webs".

 :rofl I'm talking about the collisions where we're the fortunate ones who can still fly a little.  Might be missing some wing
or something like that, but some broken window would just look pretty neat...

The canopies are not made of glass and would not shatter like glass.

It certainly wouldn't stay intact, either, though.

I've notice that bullets seem to have an impact on the shape of the canopy windshield.
Just seeems like ramming it into another plane might crack it a little bit.

I have to ask, why is this particular so important?

Visual effects and immersion into the game.
What may interest some folks, might not interest others.
It is only a wish btw.

How about we have an option to wipe the blood off the canopy after getting PW'd.  Then we could have realistic streaking since windex hadn't been invented yet.

How about a little door opens from the monitor and gives you a Mike Tyson to the temple too. For a grander, bloodier effect, he can even bite your ear.

Don't the Blood Pigs already come with those to keep the windscreen clear of the blood spraying from your targets?   :D

Only at low speed, and you've got a +1.

That's how it works in FA, except that it can only open on the ground, when the engines are shut down. The canopy opens and closes, on those aircraft that have the canopy on them.

Another point, if the canopy is significantly involved in a collision the pilot is pretty much toast.
