speeking for me i HATE THE TREES SO BAD you cant land on a flat spot with goons anymore to wait for clear base or have a easy takeoff in a b17 when your afk getting a diet coke real fast or land a goons 1k away from base becouse of the stinkin TREES!i have also found that is you hit in a gv one of those relly little pinelooking trees with a rock beside it you die if your going fast enof if not it knocks you back!i dont care if that would happen in real life it is just a game and i dont think you sould go !BOOOM when you hit a tree!!!...i also think the gv sould already be started when you spown in them becouse some "studmuffin" will be sitting there with his panzer pointed right at spawn point waiting for you to pop up but if they were started you could aleast move a little bit to counter act and why dont you see gv until they are like 1.5ks away??? somtimes its hard to find the other panzer that is shootin at you!!!

I like the trees, they should be made fully 3d though
c47s arent suppose to land in enemy territory anyways
-
yeh they are if your droping off goons it is easier sometimes just to land then drop
yes it is!
-
you're angry huh
-
i hate the trees not at someone just i angrey
at trees
-
I work for the TreeFree organization which works hard to make paper products not from trees. I think we can make AH TreeFree one day, just have some hope in the big corporations like HTC.
-
I think we should put lights on the trees. :rolleyes: OK, I think the little ones are overmodeled. :mad:
-
Eh? Are you saying that a featureless, treeless terrain is a good thing? Or are you saying that trees shouldn't cause damage to you when ya smack into them? Kinda weird.
-
iam just saying you sould just go though them i like them being there but i just dont like me blowing up when i hit them

...hop in your car....now start down a road, any road will do but preferably one with trees on either side. Get up to about 45mph and then turn straight for a tree and let me know what happens. :D
-

some deadly bushes as well :D

she'll get REALLY pissed and kill us all off with tornados,floods and earthquakes!!!!
Hey WE ALL HATE TREES!! but dont let HER know that!!! :D
my vote: keep trees but make dense tree formations in otherwise sparsly populated fields........OH apparently theres a name for them too...its 'A FOREST' :D
make it possible to pick a landing spot in a grid?
maybe make trees break a wing off, then anyone ditching wont mind and will probably enjoy a bit of crashing and anyone landing c47s will have to use its shortest landing to do it without losing a wing.
-
If u keep yer eyes open.. there are places where you can land and takeoff again in a goon amongst the trees. In the Mindanao terrain its hard to find flat terrain anywhere but the coast, so errrm thats the best place to look +)

I have safely landed 3 C47's between trees (it's slow & if you use the rudder you can avoid them).
Haven't got it working for the "taking off" part yet, but am working on it ;)
-
Buncha "TREE-HUGGIN" dweebs!
Seriously tho, what do the trees add to the game? It's not as if there are enough of em for GVs to hide in.
So far all the trees have done for me is add a nail to my FPS coffin.
BTW I work for a papermill, and we take trees then convert em to grocery bags.
-
Oh darn, you can't game the sim anymore.
What else can we add to AH that will p'o the quakers, I mean players. :D

There is unrest in the playpen,
There is trouble with the trees,
For the kiddies hate collisions
And HTC ignore their pleas.
The trouble with the dweeblets,
And they're quite convinced the're right
They say the palms are just too lofty
And they smash all planes in sight.
But the palms can't help their feelings
If they like the way they're made.
And they wonder why the quakers
Can't be happy in their shade?
There is trouble in the Forest
And the newbies all have fled
As the gamers scream "Oppression!"
And the vets just shake their heads.
So the dweebs all formed a union
And demanded equal rights.
"The palms are just too hardy;
They should never stop our flight."
Now there's no more oak oppression,
For they passed a noble law,
And the trees don't cause collisions.
Now back to your furball.

You know, Im my old flight sim (AW) They would design a feature that wouldnt be quite right. They would end up disabling the feature, once they realised it didnt work, rather than fixing it.
But I have found with AH that is not thier approach. They design a feature, and If they find problems or see a better way to do it, The fix the problem.
If you brush a leaf, it certainly shouldnt mean instant death. The trees now dont provide any cover. If you crash into one at 100knts dead center, You probably will wreck your A/C
Given time, I have a feeling we will see improvments with the trees. Its just a new feature that needs the wrinkles worked out.

Trees are fine, just make forests.
They should also be able to be TAKEN OUT.
Im sorry, but a HE SHELL should be a Nice chainsaw.

It is actually not so hard to hide behind trees when one; seldom >1, plane comes down on you.
The faster the GV, the more trees pass by in a given time length, so shielding oneself with a tree is much easier in M8 (the fnuctional one, not the present one) than Pz.
Actually have had a few planes (mostly spits for some reason!) clip into the tree in question or one next to it.
-
It would be very nice if HT takes trees from IL-2 and modify them so they wouldn't look like pancakes at low alt. Make forests too. Let GV drive thrue forests and make forest damagebile (sp?)
IMO of couse :)
-
i like your idia russian if gv could drive thru farest but when you hit a tree you dont die but you could see thought them if you were flying from above but you could shoot trees to see in!
-
I love sfma map's needle-leaf tree and broad-leaf tree! :)

Trees are OK, but som open fields somewhere would be nice, it's pretty hard to ditch a damaged airplane and not having any open fields to choose from just a trees all over the map.
