Actually the whole made by a grenade isn't more than a few inches deep! not much to hide in!<span id='postcolor'>But that hole would be enough to take a dump in, and then you use another grenade to blow your crap all over the area so no one can step in your crap

LOL, That worm game is my home page for the last 3 weeks, and everytime I start my browser, I'd play for 10-15 minutes and forget where I was supposed to go in the first place.
Maybe CM should buy the rights to that worm game and sell it as OPERATION WORM. Â But they'd problably F it up and ship a buggy beta version.

I'd like to be able to till the soil and plant my crops.
LEADER: 2,3, TILL SOIL, 12 O'CLOCK
LEADER: 4,5, PLANT SEEDS, 12 O'CLOCK
Then when the harvest came, the americans and russians would sit and eat salad and not fight or anything, because I was told that vegitarians were the most peaceful people on earth (really, I was told this by a member of PETA: People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. Â But I'm a life time member of the other PeTa: People Eating Tastey Animals.)
But the idea of digging the earth is good, especially trenches and bunkers. Â To get out of a bunker or trench, you don't just stand and jump out, you got to climb out, or go out a door and steps in the case of a bunker, so jumping isn't really needed if trenches are added. Â Anyway, it wouldn't be added in this game's lifetime, maybe in a sequal or MOD.

The problem is that in 1985, there weren't too many prop-driven aircraft that were also ground attack aircrafts. Â ####, even in Vietnam war, it was either a fast mover jet dropping bombs, or a slow prop-driven, WWII era, Skyraider ground attack aircraft, that were used as air support. Â In 1985, the only prob-driven aircraft that could be used as a "bomber", that would be the OV-10 Bronco. Â Even then, the Bronco is really a recon aircraft/Forward Air Controler, not a true bomber that some of us want. Â The Bronco, in Vietnam, carried WP marking rockets pods, HE rocket pods, and sometimes a centerline mini-gun. Latter in 1980s, there were fitted with bombs and other stuff, and were flown until after the Gulf war. Â But that doesn't make them "bombers." It's just that I'd like to see an aircraft that's slow enough that can allow us to see any targets on the ground when flying low. Â You don't spot soldiers at 15 thousand feet and at Mach 1.5
I don't see how a ground attack aircraft that is faster than the A-10, could be added to the game as it is right now. Â In order for any bombers to be added, there should be:<ul>
[*]Larger playing enviroments
[*]More air bases in those enviroments, not just one, but one for each side, with runways long enough for these aircrafts
[*]More Anti-Aircraft systems; such as stationary AA guns, better AA missiles and such. Â I'd stay way from large SAM systems because those are ususlly radar guided and can cover the entire playing area.
[*]Better flight controls and flight physics
I never expected "bombers" to be added in the next update, maybe not even in the update after that, but I could see "bombers" added to a sequal or possibly to a Mod or something.

WooHoo! 100th reply
I think we all made our arguments, stated what we felt, and that's about it, there's not much more left to argue over. Â Maybe now we can get a BIS member to read over all the arguments and come up with a verdict on who has won, that be nice.

I think the fact that this topic as gone as long as it has is because we all agree to disagree.  But  I still want my BOMBER.

I want to see either mortars or bombers, one or the other or both. Â I don't want to see aircraft carriers like other's have asked for, I just want an aircraft that can drop bombs, not big f'in bombs, just maybe 250lbs or 500lbs bombs, maybe some cluster bombs.
I know some of you's don't want to see any bombers in the game as it is right now. Â I can see why with the AA rockets being as buggy as they are, and how hard it's to fly the aircrafts. Â But I think in time, with fixes and tweaks of the physics, with addional Anti-Aircraft Weapons, and some larger maps, bombers are a possibility. Â At this point and time of the game's development, bombers wouldn't be-shouldn't be a priority to the developers. Â I'd like them to fix lots of other aspects of the game first. Â I don't expect to see a bomber in the game for some time now, but eventually, there will be one.
"Who are you to moderate these boards? If BIS sees no opposition against idea of bombers they might be fool enough to listen idiots who want them to OFP."
I let the developers decide what goes in and what doesn't. I don't expect anything from them, nor do I b*tch or whine when something goes in or isn't in. I take what I get and play with what I got. Â Take the addition of the AUG in the next addon. I'm pretty sure someone suggested it, and they looked at the idea and went with it. Â Now there's quite a few people up in arms with that decision. Â One of the reasons I like posting here is because some of our suggestions may make it into the game, and I think that's cool. Â I feel there's a time and place for every addon, no matter what it is. Â Most of the suggested addons aren't do-able, but that's ok, because right now isn't the time for most of them anyway. Â But if we all keep our cool and let time do it's work, I'm sure the game will play out.

(1) What do we do with emeny soldiers that surrender? Â (2) How do we secure them for transport to the rear areas? (3) Will the surrendering soldiers provide any vital intel, or just use our resources to guard them?
Isn't it easier to put a bullet in their brain than to try to answer these three questions?

i love having some bombing runs against scuds on kolgujev with this beautiful toy
<span id='postcolor'>I do bombing runs at night with a couple shilkas shooting at me, man I love the rush I get when I'm flying away after a run and I got lots of tracers flying around me.

I got those bomber addons, and they're alright. Â And bombing isn't as easy as pointing the aircraft and launching a bunch of rockets at the target. Â It's hard to dive at your target, know when to pull up and when to release the bombs. Â Plus these are fin-retarded bombs, meaning they slow down on release, so the trajectory is different if they were just dumb iron bombs. Â Still, it's well worth a look if you're interested in seeing how bombing could be added to the game in an official addon.
Get the A10 and Su 25 bombers in The Addon Collection 1.01 (by Kegetys and Armourdave)

stop saying the bronco is a bomber. Â give it some respect. Â the bronco was/is a FAC aircraft. Â it had some weapons to mark targets not for regular offence.<span id='postcolor'>What do you suggest as a slow moving aircraft that can drop ordinance? Â I know it's not a real bomber, but I think it's one of the only aircraft that can keep the game from getting out of hand. Â I don't want aircrafts zooming buy over my heads at Mach 1+, so that's why I'm suggesting the Bronco as a substitute. Â Or how about this A-6E Intruder? Â But then again, there's no aircraft carrier to launch them, nor should there be any. Â That's why I think the bronco would fit in nicely.

They'll all be dead if you use one of these babies. Â A fifteen thousand pound bomb, the BLU-82 "Daisy Cutter"is the biggest non-nuke bomb in the US inventory. Â They're dropped from C-130s via parachute, maily used to create LZs in dense forested areas.

If we can't have  bombers, can we have swords? Or rocks and sticks?
What a silly idea. Â What is the point of having a bomber that does little damage? Â Daft idea keep bombers away.
Then why are there cesnas and civilian cars in the game when they don't do any damage? Â This is a military sim, isn't it? There's a big difference between the amount of damage a B-52 can do or a smaller bomber, like the OV-10 Bronco. Â And what's the problem with the Su25 or A-10? Â There are tanks in the game, isn't there. Â And isn't the A-10 known to be the Tank Killer?
And we're talking about free fall dumb bombs, not laser guided "smart" bombs. Â It still takes some skill on getting the bomb to hit on or near the target. Â You gotta know when to release the bomb, factoring in your speed, altitude, and dive. Â And it's not like you got 10 bombs to play with, the OV-10 Bronco can carry what, 4 bombs maximum. Â It's not as easy as just getting your chopper pointed in the right direction and unloading a bunch of rockets in the general area of your target.
I'll never want to see the fast moving jet bombers in this game, that's for sure. Â But I think a slow moving, prop driven bomber (i.e the Bronco) is a viable option for the game. Â At least give me a hang-glider and a box of grenades.

I'd like to see the men, when jumping out the back of a 5 ton, have their weapons in their hands at the ready, not on their backs. Â Is it that hard to jump out the back of a truck with a gun in your hands?
