Here's an original idea for 1.4

[Graphic]

Make tanks a stable platform to stand on while in motion. If I remember correctly it was a lot less jittery and dangerous in BF1942 (I vaguely remember sniping from on top of a moving tank.) It would be really cool to get a bunch of guys to pile on and make it a makeshift APC or something.

Well anyway...yeah, just had to get that off my mind :)

Re: Here's an original idea for 1.4

you can already, sure it's jittery but what the hell
just go prone on the turret and keep correcting your position

Re: Here's an original idea for 1.4

yea, you can already do that, you gotta keep adjusting your position and keep your crosshair aimed at the turret.

it's a tank!!!, not a personnel carrier,

You can stan on airplane wings while they're flying in 1942 FFS!

Re: Here's an original idea for 1.4

its got to do with the crappy collision detection that BF2 supports, Ive been saying for months that they need to fix it. Take a look at BF2142 they HAVE to have fixed it because in the new game mode the titans move and most of the battles take place on the moving titans, can you imagine holding a battle on something as jittery as standing on a tank, so we know its fixed in BF2142.

and since 2142 is on basically the same engine, it should be possible to backport those collisions to BF2

Like I said, I know you CAN sit on a tank, but it's extremely jittery and you run the risk of giving the driver team damage/kill penalties.

Soldiers sit on tanks to get to point A to point B in real life.

:laugh: I did that once on Gazala, I was able to stay on for a few minutes.

Sounds great, but the collision detection wouldn't tolerate it. It's too easy to get tossed to the side and die like a bug under the treads .

I still have some of those Wing-walking stunt videos. The DC ones were great, where they would jump out of the C-130 to the A-10, lay C4, parachute away and BOOM!

Yeahm but not in the heat of battle, IE BF2.

Yeah...people don't usually sit in the APCs in the heat of battle in BF2 either. It would be another transportation method.
