So...Cert specific gunner positions? I like that.

Also, if they wanted to make this really cool, they could make portions of the vehicle targetable. For example, you could blow up individual turrets just like you can blow up Phalanx turrets, and the super tank would need someone inside to repaire it and cause it to take NTUs

That's region specific damage, U don't think the Devs would do that

Queensidecastle · 2003-07-28, 12:59 PM

Well, in a way the answer is already there. If you have an AMS blow up next to another vehicle, it blows that up too. showing that the best way to code this would be to have each part of the super tank its own little "vehicle" These "vehicles would just be sorta connected to each other for movement purposes, much like how a Galaxy carries a Harrasser

I'm thinking Overlord Tank from Generals. Two Heavy, Ultra-high bore cannons, and a bunker for troops on the top for an elevated vantage point against infantry. But as we all know, everything in PS has a weakness, so for this tank, it would be against aircraft. This would make the Skyguard vital to using the heavy tank.

That can be common pool, I'll think of Factional ones later.

There are so many good ideas here and in so many places I wish the devs would put this kindof stuff in. But they seem to only put in their ideas what they think is best, such as CTF where nobody even suggested that.

And also alot of the good ideas get flooded by posts of complaints such "as the lasher is to powerful, nerf it!" what the posters of these complaints don't realise is that one or two posts about the lasher being over powered may be fine but we don't need 50 stating the same thing. What they should do instead of arguing if it's to powerful or not they should just make a poll and people could vote.

I like the cert specific gunner platform and the region specific damage, nice ideas.

What?! The Devs actually listening to and implementing what the community wants?! Now thats just crazy talk!!

Endless I like your sig.

I have a link to it in my sig.

Endless · 2003-07-28, 03:51 PM

Heh. I thought it was a unique touch to my rather bland sig. I was bored and decided to hold you to your words.

the overlord tanks are perfect for heavy common pool tanks in PS.

be sick to have a gatling gun mounted on top that auto fires

Mwahaha! New vehicles for NC and VS! Not for TR, since according to trout they already have a heavy tank

heh, anyone who's piloted a Prowler know it barely qualifies as a medium tank. A lightning has a 50:50 chance of killing one.

wow, your gunners and driver must be in a coma then.

Yeah Yogi, you must not ever have any good gunners cause when I've drove a prowler, a Lightning has no chance in hell.

Endless · 2003-07-28, 05:20 PM

Ive been taken out by a lightning in my prowler before. Granted, my gunner was shooting at some squirrels or somethin. Thats why I only let outfit members gun for me.

Ultimatedogg · 2003-07-28, 05:31 PM

The prowler is pretty sad compared to the others
havin drivin all 3 i can say its easier to die
