And can we get bigfoot who live in the woods while your driving your tank and come out and take off the turret and kill you? :D

Spamming again I see.

Personally, the forests pretty much shield you from most angles, sometimes it takes me a few passes over head to actually find the guy and get a shot/bomb drop on him. I doubt these types of forests you asking for would be added, though. Some bigger trees/more "fuller" at the top would be reasonable though

I would love to have thicker forest canopies.


It would work both ways; the Wirbly-thingeys would be better protected from my 75mm cannon with them, and I would be better protected from their cannon.

So +1

Good idea 10th.

I do, and you are.


Anyway... I would love to see thicker forests, with more varied foliage. It would be nice if we had more that two types of trees.

There was this variety of forest back in the day, and before that there were trees that absolutely did hide your GV from the world above. But they definitely have improved since four years ago.

Yup... if there's one thing you can say about our current forests... they're a vast improvement on the ones we had until... what was it, 2.11?
