C-47 and C-47 cargo improvment suggestions.

[Enker]

All valid suggestions. And Enker, the problem with the damage modle is that the tip of my wing got shot up and the engine caught fire. MABY 1 .30 cal bullet hit it in the second pass (hurricane I, so then it would be 303. but whatever). But yes they are very fragile. I doubt that we will see a new transport though. Most people who never fly them but instead shoot them up think they are fine.

Was it your engine? Are you sure it wasn't one of your fuel tanks? I don't think there is such a thing as an engine fire in-game. Besides, haven't you ever heard of "The Golden BB"?

Honestly, I know none of these ideas have a snowball's chance in hell of being implemented, but just for fun...


Other ways to use Cargo planes/vehicles :

#1. Engineering Squad Drop. Help rebuild those pesky ACK-ACK guns on a damaged field.
#2. Construction Squad Drop. Help rebuild the town. (Perhaps 1 building pop per troop dropped)
#3. Demolitions Squad Drop. Help destroy the town. (1 building per troop go boom. Could theoretically then see mass troop drops for a town)
#4. Reinforncements Squad Drop. Reinforce town barracks... i.e. increase # of troops needed to take town up to 20, or even bump the numbers needed to take town up if, for instance, 5 enemies made it to map room, isntead of needing 5 more, you can drop reinforcements from C-47 to need 15 more).

Best thing is, all 4 of these drops can be done through our current normal troop drop. Drop normal troop on airfield, ack-ack guns get rebuilt. Drop troops on friendly town, it first reinforces town then repairs town. Or on an enemy airfield, reduces town buildings.

Certainly would put an increased usage on Jeeps, LVTs and C-47s. Including possibility of seeing more "mass drops".

I want you guys to suggest improvments for the C-47 and it's cargo.

why? do you think HT and the team are just sitting around twiddling their thumbs, looking for things to do right now? If you actually played the game you might have noticed that they have quite alot on at the moment.

I wish that when a troop/cargo carrier is shot up that there is a chance the troops/cargo that they are carrying can be damaged. Iv hit both the M3 and 251 with the 75mm from a B25 in the back where the troops sit only to watch them dump all ten unharmed troops a few seconds later. Same with the C47, I put bullets all down the fuselage and just like the m3 and 251 all ten troops came out like nothing happened.

(somewhat cheesed off sarcastic voice) as a matter of fact, I do. Come on HT, do some work for once!!!

But serisouly, no I don't. I just think that we could use an update, and if HT and the rest of the team have time or think it worth while then it will displace us getting "real shadows in the cocpit", and we will get a C-47 or troop update.

We're just talking throwing around ideas, I think most of us appriciate the work those guys are doing and are just enjoy throwing around ideas about the game.

This arn't bad ideas, I like them, especially number 4. I also don't see anything like theis actually being implimented as it would complicate the game more but

It also somewhat supports the new thread I am going to start (refering to the list of ideas).
