Re: Chopper Fuel

It would be pretty cool if you could burst the tires of vehicles.

Yeah but they have runflat technology...it would make it harder to control and you would have to change it sooner or later...

Re: Chopper Fuel

I agree! DICE needs to make the petrol stations on the maps (Like the one on Gulf of Oman) fully functionable! I want to stop, buy some petrol for my tank, some sweets and the daily paper! I want to buy silly stuff that I can hang from my Vodnik's mirror!

Two words my friend: Fuzzy DICE.
(lol pun :/...)

Re: Chopper Fuel

glaucoma is right on the money, to add fuel to the game, sleep and food would also need to be implemented, and we know how fun those things are. fuel is a realism feature that is a negative for gameplay, its just not fun. for realism to be implemented into a game, it needs to be warrented by gameplay. the best way to balance the situation imo is:
choppers tail rotor can be disabled by any high explosive. when a helicopter rotor gets hit, its as if the pilot jumped out, yet hes still sitting there. (this can also be applied to tank tracks which gives the engineer a bonus because other classes wont be able to much without tracks) this would make the at class much more effective. it wouldnt make sence for apcs because they have so many wheels.

all in all, in 1.2 it takes one tank round or 2 at missiles to kill a helicopter, so none of this talk is nessesary because its already taken care of. now i can really train my pkm on that damn blackhawk!

I actually thought it was a good idea and you all ruined the thread.

Because we didnt think it was a good idea....

However adjusting the hit points would make sense... so that if you did aim and hit the tail rotor you disabled the aircraft causing it to go into a spin....

Re: Chopper Fuel

Lately every time some one makes a suggestion about the aircraft (even a lame one) The chopper and jet whos pick them apart. The best suggestion so far is to make them land to resupply. Every one else in the game has to sit and wait at the resupply box to be resupplied, why not aircraft. yes I can hear you now "oh no we have to make 2 or 3 passes at the airfield as it is". I wish resupply for all the vehicles was that easy. I really dont see what would be that hard for all these "leet" pilots to land (actually touch the runway or pad for say 2 seconds) to get resupplied. Unless you think its that hard to land and you cant do it. After getting that said Im sure all the "leet" pilots will pick me apart too. Thats ok with me, Im not the only one who thinks landing is a good Idea. Bet you guys think its ok to get someone elses toy nerfed untill you find that your toy is next in the nerf line.

Most of the military is made up of support types, Almost any countries military would grind to a halt without them. They are a very necessary element in a modern military force, however I really dont think that they have a place in this game. "Can I check under the hood, while were topping of the tank ?" LOL. . . . . . . .Red

Re: Chopper Fuel

Ummmm if you are calling me a jet / chopper whore look at my sig...My fav vehicle is the TANK....And the tank is just as easy to fix as anyting else...even the hovering...when you actually run out of ammo in the tank (rarely) and need to reload how hard is it to drive up to a supply crate??????How hard is it for the engy in the tank to hop out and repair??????

Face it you just dont like getting killed by the chopper and the jet....deal

Re: Chopper Fuel

Re: Chopper Fuel

Just addressing pilots in general, I have actually played on servers where a map such as Karkand starts and found the guy that was bombing me the last round is hideing at the far marine base by the UAV and satallite trailer, I went to blow them up, got a UAV from my comander, and saw 1 red dot so I went to kill him ( maybe he thought it was the enemy commander ) only to find out that he kept respawning back there because he wasnt playing (watching TV or something) just waiting for the next map with an aircraft. Pretty lame if you ask me. . . . . .Red

Re: Chopper Fuel

that sounds like the least fun *fix* possible

wait i have a better idea, lets have people taxing the planes off as the take off that have to sit there the whole round taxing planes with glow sticks

comon man, im tryin to play the game to have fun not to try to but as many burdens to make it realistic as possible

Re: Chopper Fuel

What the hell!!!! Choopers have no need to be nerfed by this quite frankly stupid idea, no offence but in my op[inion nearly all the stuff in game is balanced.
