Title: New WW1 Toys
Post by: Rob52240 on May 21, 2013, 07:34:21 PM

With all the requests that have been made for including FPS into Aces high, it would work better in a WW1 setting since the tanks weren't any faster than a man.  Crossing no man's land and fighting inside enemy trenches would be cool.

You really want a FPS simulating going over the top?  I don't think you know what you think you know.  I can think of few examples that would be less fun and yet more educational about the futility of industrialized war than a WWI infantry simulation.

I dunno karnak,

Maybe by playing a WW1 FPS people will question 2 valuable things.

1. How does technology advance? Why are machine guns so good against infantry

2. Why the heck did the generals in charge not get the hint after a few attempts of this?

Mind you, don't think it would sell that well. Stand, climb, step forward, die. Repeat.
