Re: Should Cars+water=Explosion

In BF1942 the car would explode if you hit 1 cm of water. One of the features I remember best about Forgotten Hope (the BF1942 mod) was that you could drive jeeps and tanks through shallow and medium deep water. Worked like a charm. If you ran into deep water in FH the tank or jeep would stay there for a while just as if you left it on the road. It did not create any problems.

I think this should be implemented, I would like to do things like cliff dive off the fushe pass bridge and other fun stuff like that. And its really irritating, just like when vehicles explode and leave behind the exploding wreck that kills you. Things like that make me mad everytime they happen, because they are stupid and unnecessary

Your character should be able to dive underwater, to avoid enemy fire. Of course, u would have a certain amount of breathing time. If a vehicle falls in the water it shouldnt instantly explode but it should be removed some way or the other, if not, that vehicle will never respawn.

I don't understand why the vehicle just goes into the 'broken' state.

It would kick everyone out of the vehicle and float to the bottom. After a few seconds it would disappear and respawn like normal.

NO EXPLOSION.

LOL, Imagine T90s going for Essex at Oman... Barrels just enough out of the water to open fire.

I think like 15 seconds extra before it explodes, then you wouldnt have any problems like that. I like to take my time but I still think 15 seconds is still more than enough time.

Every time I crashed my car/tank into the water, I knew it was my fault. DICE should fix problems that came from their fault, not from players inability to drive.

Re: Should Cars+water=Explosion

I think it should explode, but maybe after like 5 seconds instead of 2.

Re: Should Cars+water=Explosion

Yes, they should. If they didn't and a team member drowns a vehicle, it will just sit there until it explodes way later from being idle, depriving the team of a vital part of the force if they sank a tank or something.

i dont really care

Re: Should Cars+water=Explosion

the car has to explode at some point so it can respawn but, maybe they should delay the explosion.

Re: Should Cars+water=Explosion

It does sort of serve as a strategic advantage to, I mean how many times have you driven a car off the edge of a dock because a tank was chasing you only to die. It should be based on more realism than that, especially something so easy to change.

It's fine how it is, IMO. I'm pretty good at pressing "E" though. I guess it's kinda tough for some people.

All of the vehicles are made of potassium! :) I remember some discussion about this early after release. I know I've died plenty of times for getting a jeep too wet. I like the 15 second idea but hope they don't mess with anything too much.
