And scavengers would kill the AI's only truck in single player games, thus ending the game ?

This is a far out idea, but what if there was an APC body, and one had the option to choose different propulsions for it (VTOL, tracks, ect.) The body could look similar to the body on the Cyborg Transport? That's actually a great idea Leito! It makes sense in relation to how other units are design...

Please keep the number of subforums to an absolute minimum.
I already think there are too many to easely get an overview.
.. and too many stickys !

It's not like this board gets hundreds of new topics every day.....

Great news - thanks all devs !

Hope to se you back some time - maybe next year, when you've had a vacation from wz!
your input is always very interesting, and your artwork is great!

O_O I'd imagined the muzzle more like the heavy cannon, but this is also very cool, and
clearly looks like a new weapon type. Thumbs up!

I LIKE IT!


OT : Seems like you two caught the idea spot on... and improved it. Exciting!

LOL some one hijacked my topic ... xD ok then, if you can provide me with a complete description of the mechanism you have in mind I can make a model next week, so we can see if someone gets interested on testing it. Thanx for the offer Olrox, but I don't think I'll be able to. All I can contribute ...

Thx - I've been waiting for something from Diorama - thanks again!

I think it looks great! O_O

... and a lot better than the one in the videos!

I like the idea of making efficient Air-to-Air weaponry better. Only efficient against formations - I'm NOT suggesting a Super Weapon.... Like a shotgun - the fragments would hit many targets, but not do much damage, unless more AA shells are fired simultaneously. The other AA turrets also need to ...

Good points I don't see the vertical splash as any problem - just one more challenge in the game. The shells would detonate at a higher altitude than their splash radius. Also I wouldn't mind too much if this was a homing weapon, I was just thinking about balance and gameplay. I'm just trying to poi...

exactly....

Isn't this just what Cyclone does? I guess all the AA turrets have a minor splash to them, but I was looking more for the BIG explosion you see when the fireworks start at the end - a huge cloud of burning shrapnel. Just thought it would be cool and useful when you get swarmed by big armadas og VTO...

Dunno if this has been suggested before or if the idea is ridiculous, but would it be possible to have big anti aircraft GUN firing exploding shells - sort of like the fireworks at the end of the game ? It could be similar to WW2 Flak guns and the round would explode with a good visible splash effec...
