Come on already, KK, fix the combat wheeler car!

[Heavyporker]

After trying yet again to see how usable the combat wheeler car was... I can safely say that except in eosteric circumstances, the combat wheeler car is about 30% useful ( 25% for simple transportation, 5% for when you can actually shoot and hit something other than yourself).


WHAT is wrong with you KK? Releasing such a hideously, ridiculously awkward item?!

I'm sorry, but fundamental changes must be made if the combat wheeler car is to be of any real use.

- Uncouple targeting from vehicle's orientation. Currently, this simply does not work at all for a ground vehicle. Anyone will tell you that the extremely tight firing direction of the Scorpion Trike tail gun made the secondary gunnery seat all but useless.

- Give the gunner the ability to determine elevation for the firing arc. This means he has some actual control over the weapon other than just 'click click click'.

I'm sorry, but deciding that "Hey, driver and gunner must work together perfectly to use car without dying from one misfired grenade" has completely and utterly flubbed in the case of the combat wheeler car.

I reiterate: Perfect harmony between driver and gunner might work for the hoverbomber, but it DOES NOT WORK AT ALL FOR THE COMBAT WHEELER CAR!

yet another thread telling kk to do something

[nobby]

He does have a point though about the suicidal piece of poo !

[Apocalypsox]

all vehicles need a rework...and a remodeling if ya ask me. would be totally awsome to see a high poly rhino rollin round the wastelands. They need to do another theme 6months like they did for drones for vehicles. work all this shit in and fix the zoning bug.

[Heavyporker]

Oh, no kidding. I'd love higher-resolution skins for the vehicles, especially the jeep since up close you can see how painfully low-res the skin is.

I love the look of the wheeler car, though, so I'm scared of any changes they might make to its appearance.


Having first-person view being able to be enabled inside a vehicle would COMPLETELY RULE, though... I mean, who hasn't shouted in joy when they bugged into first person view when they were in a jeep, bike, or the car?

[Apocalypsox]

dunno but i wish that there was a more complicated control system for gliders...so instead of having to nosedive an assualt glider to hit ur target...you could say set an auto-pilot system to stay on its course, and then have the gun enabled so you could actaully shoot something. or make the assualt gliders rockets AoE. we can dream eh?

[ROZZER187]

and on top of all that fix the rubber band effect that people always get when they use vehicles, I loved my quad but for some reason I just cant use it anymore.

Ive been stuck on a zone before and asked for a gm to help me move my vehicle into the next zone, the reply i got was relog.I was told that the rubber band effect is caused by a bad log in................yeah right 8+ relogs and still no luck

[Heavyporker]

re: Apocalypsox: AoE rockets for the Gliders sound sweet, certainly, but unless they had wide area of effect, they'd still be as difficult to use as they are currently. Being able to aim the glider's weapon WITHOUT changing the glider's orientation is what's most crucial to their usability in air versus ground.

[ROZZER187]

true but i would kinda feel like a kamikaze pilot having to nosedive to kill something. never had the chance to fly a glider coz of all the bugs


oh and LOL at the forums, i see more guests than users

[Clive tombstone]

Aint it the friggin trueth though. Me and HP, and all the other avid vehicle users been sayin it for years. even more soo thing the development of the Gliders. Honestly they need some serious work.

The suicide car is an excellent start as far as improvements and desperate fixes go. The firing ark needs to be adjustable, the firing distance needs to be increased. I mean, I think the idea of this car was originally ment to be some form of light artillary.

But meh, I'd be nice if these things get fixed in the comming months, but I feel more "pressing" matters will be addressed first, whatever those are

PEace out

GASP! You would NEVER USE AN ASSUALT GLIDER FOR KAMIKAZE RUNS!



thats what scout gliders are for

[Glok]

...so instead of having to nosedive an assualt glider to hit ur target...

That's how they work?? In my world that's awesome! I think I finally found a reason to make a vehicle char. Divebomb comin' atcha bitch!

[nobby]

Problem is though, gliders fly faster than missles...


so you'll end up blowing yourself up probably...

[Pantho]

Not all the gliders nobby -

Vehicles are getting a rework in the Balance btw, rumours of Collision dmg..

So instead of flying your glider into a invislbe "BOOM" wall, Its your Revler :@)

[Heavyporker]

I swear... if vehicles are to have collision damage, then runners better fucking get assloads of force damage from being hit by vehicles.

And crashing a glider into the ground better do massive Force AoE!
