Vehicle bombs

[BIGTROJANMAN]

This is just an idea.I have know clue if there is one in the game because im kinda of new i have been playing since Novmeber. When i was watching tv I saw on the news were car bombs has been kill people over there in Iraq. Well i thought of it wouldnt it be cool if you were in a base and there were enemy tanks,ants,ams,ect.. that u could plant a bomb on them and when they got back in there Vechile and drive of boom there toast. lets say they could be time detanoted(sry if misspelled) or remote detanoted(sry if misspelled again).Please reply back to tell me if there already in the game or what u think of havin Vehicle bombs.


Long Live

What about one that explodes when the engine is started, not destroying the car, only damaging it, or even killing the driver so it could he hacked. An add on to CE.

[BIGTROJANMAN]

thats sounds cool hazzer. how about having it were it could destory the vehicle if theres more than one like a convoy of tanks then have one were it just kills the drivers and passngers.

I think you should be able to place boomers directly on vehicles that are not moving. I have yet to hear any reasonable explination as to how that would be overpowering. It would also increase the effectivness of Saboteur Infiltrators. I cant count the number of times I have snuck up on Skyguards, Enforcers, Deliverers ..etc just sitting there firing from hills and such. As soon as you put a boomer on the ground it drives off. Much better would be if you could Det Pack it. I think you should be able to Det pack MAXs as well. Too bad too sad if they allow you to sneak up on them that closely and then when they see the green smoke they cant evade the explosive radius

Your options are to surge and run around the vehicle dropping mines which will explode instantly (and do pretty decent damage to boot) or if they're paying less attention (Lightnings) to surround the vehicle with boomers while switching the triggers out in your inventory without detonating them. When you get good with the timing of how quickly you can switch out the inventory, you can detonate 4 boomers in about 5 seconds. You'll be counting your xp and they'll be wondering how they took so much damage so fast.

While we are thinking in poor taste..

Why not add a suit of armor that has no weapon slots but instead is loaded with 100 pounds of high explosives. You surge into a spawn room and detonate it killing your self and everyone around you.

Thats what most people do anyway. Atleast with this new Palistine Armor you can actually kill someone before you get mowed over by a bunch of respawns with supressors.

I would rather have an actual CAR BOMB, like the Demolition Ships in AOE. Drive that puppy right into a deployed AMS hit a trigger and BOOM!!!!!!!

[SandTrout]

They will be reimplementing the ANT bomb soon, but there wont be a manual "detonate" botton. Just stay in the car until it goes boom.

[BIGTROJANMAN]

these are good ideas. how about u caan get a cert for a car bomb and when u drive it to an enemys base or tower and the car bomb has an abililty to look like an enemys ant colors so they dont know what hit them.they could only use it like every 15-20 mintues so it wouldnt be used all the time by car bombers. but the problem is would the driver get killed with the car bomb or would he try to make a run for it and how many certs would it cost ?

[BIGTROJANMAN]

hey zjinPS its not bad taste to think of somthing remeber its an idea . any way that 100 pound suicide bomber armor is not a bad idea if you feel like killing yourself to kill many others. it would be a quick way to clear a spwan room.

Spee is right. My initial reply was full on sarcasm. If you really don't think this thread is poor form then I'm sure you would like to see a larged fenced in area in each empires sanctuary. We can call them Auschwitz, Sobibor and Dachau.

If my sarcasmism isn't even more apparent to you then you apparently are either :

a) a young and naive person
b) very insensitive and lacking any social skills.

I'd wager option A. That's not a bad thing, we were all young and naive.

You see a car bomb explode on CNN and kill a handful of American soldiers and think 'Wow that would be a cool addition to PS' Thats shameful and disrespectful.

I'm through with this thread as I'd rather not see it on the first page of the forum any longer.

EDIT: If you don't know what Auschwitz, Sobibor and Dachau were then my assumption of you is more than solidified.

My thoughts exactly.

If those are my only choices I take B.
And if the devs implement 2 large bases in the center of a continent and tell me I can take them out by crashing into them with a galaxy, guess what my next cert is.
Frankly I am sick and tired of people trying to make eveything politically correct. Leave your RL country and religion beliefs at the warpgate, cause I will blow the other empires up with any means supplied to me while I play this GAME.<<<note the last word it's the important one
