xman1 10 Posted April 7, 2012 Right now, the Walrus just stops instantly when it hits a tree. It would be better if it stopped and knocked over the tree. Just thinking. -X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tekgun2 0 Posted April 7, 2012 I was thinking the same thing earlier, also it doesn't climb hills very well, it would be nice with a bit more grunt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GGTharos 10 Posted April 7, 2012 The Walrus is a 1000 kilo lightweight. It's no T-55. All this future stuff is being fought with aluminum UAVs and pop-guns :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Osric 1 Posted April 8, 2012 Except the Walrus a re-purposed civilian vehicle. How many Vauxhalls have you seen win a fight with a tree? Besides the trees sway so damn nicely in the weather why would you want to knock them over? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because I want to knock them over on my snow island, drag them up to my command center, and invite my enemy over for a christmas party. Then back to shooting.

harbinger 1 Posted April 15, 2012 Even if trees can't be knocked over, we should still be able to set them on fire. I imagine that the snow landscapes would look especially beautiful with all the forests alight from lasers ;) Plus just the visual of guiding your vehicles through sheets of flame to their destination would just be awesome :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Imp0815 1 Posted April 16, 2012 Hm i also dont like the way the Walrosses behave but when its part of the universe theres not mutch to argu with Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
R33GoNe 1 Posted April 16, 2012 I agree they should be able to burn and they should at least be able to be knocked over when you fly a manta into them by accident, not that I have done that............honest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dajunka 10 Posted April 17, 2012 (edited) We should be able to run them over, burn them, blow them up and nuke them from space. Bloody trees get everywhere, breed like rats they do. Edited April 17, 2012 by Dajunka Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just thinking.-X I'd rather see it smash through the tree in a hail of wood splinters, personally.. Tekgun2 said: I was thinking the same thing earlier, also it doesn't climb hills very well, it would be nice with a bit more grunt. Yeah, it needs more low end torque. Kinda slow off the mark and not a good climber. Scrubs too much speed in slight turns too.. GGTharos said: The Walrus is a 1000 kilo lightweight. It's no T-55.

Hawk Firestorm 10 Posted April 21, 2012 Indeed and in many cases buildings cept the command center too, but overall the design of the islands while maybe okie for player control, are going to be hopeless for any ai to navigate. And tree's etc getting in the way are part of this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
