caz 0 Posted January 24, 2002 instead of just the commander seeing who's in a tank/heli i think it would be better if everyone could Reason for this is; imange you are pinned down from fire from a house, wouldnt it be great to call in a AH-64 to wipe the place out, our even a tank to lay down some HEAT rounds to clear your advance A lot of the times people in vechiles do there own thing (which i dont mind at all) but just think it would be more realistic and fun if u had support when u needed it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dawdler 0 Posted January 24, 2002 Well, try to ask your team members if someone want to be co-figther. He does not have to stick on your back all the time, but when one guy asks for help, the other help. Its as easy as that. Its easier than just demanding help from random ppl, since they usually dont listen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
caz 0 Posted January 24, 2002 what im talking about is just being able to call in support when u need them. its very hard to even know if 1 of your team is in a vechile, let alone get help from them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FetishFool 0 Posted January 24, 2002 I know what you mean, Caz. OPF can learn a lot from Global Warfare. Caz means like AI controlled the airstrikes, or barrages. Such as make a new class called "Radio Man". He can call artillery onto certain coordinates and stuff. He should also be able to call in supply drops. Such as ammo crates falling out of a Chinook or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
moerty 0 Posted January 28, 2002 oki check this out, you're a squad leader with 4 men under your control. say you're defending your flag, you send one or 2 of your men in the chopper, you camp in the flag town, when you see a tank you highlight the heli pilot and gunner and target that damn invincible m1 coming to rape your flag. presto air support. you just need teamwork .

Frizbee 0 Posted January 28, 2002 Interestingly enough, this is a problem in all games and has never been addressed. I was one of the three dozen or so people who played the Beta version of Aliens Online. Well, players couldn't enter the game (as a Marine) unless they had a fireteam leader. But noone liked being the fireteam leader as his special weapon HAD to be a motion tracker. Anyway, after a team was put together and the mission started, everyone split up and did their own thing... and got killed. As an Alien there were lots of people with high ranks from their kills and numerous successful missions (and playing froma face-hugger, to drone to queen was damn fun) but in the Marines only one or two had reached a rank of corporal, let alone sergeant or above.. I stopped playing in the end, being sick of all the crap of having to defend yourself when others ran off. If this could be addressed by some game it would kick ass..
