IceFire 0 Posted April 8, 2002 Personally I think it would be really awesome if this game had Scuba units. Think about it, we got infantry, black ops, airborne, sniper, tanks, planes, choppers, jeeps, coming up a motorcycle, and some people say you can use the boat. This game is like a sim for all that. We have air and land basically covered. I would like to see some underwater action. I mean, if this game can make all those other things seem realistic, it should work well for scuba units also. They will just need to improve the looks of the water and make underwater possible. I would love to be able to hide under water off the shore of some beach waiting for enemies to leave after they chased me and they are looking for me. Or in some river. Or infiltrate the enemy base by going through some under ground underwater tunnel to get into the base. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tovarish 0 Posted April 8, 2002 There's just one problem with that, and it's a biggie. The game engine just dosen't support "under water". i.e. There's no such thing as far as OFP is concerned Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IceFire 0 Posted April 8, 2002 Oh well, it would be cool though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IceFire 0 Posted April 8, 2002 Ok, I got a related question then. If you are underwater in OPFP, can enemies see you while you are under water? What if you are partially submerged in the water, does that make it difficult for enemies to spot you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Frag 0 Posted April 8, 2002 Just add setviewdistance 3 to the init field of any existing unit, and you'll have an idea of what fighting underwater will be like... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
