hmm no aircraft cmon i mean arent you tired of a thunderhawk just dropping down a hq or a valkyrie or viper just dropping down parts for the ig ????

Re: Those blasted Air units are gonna be the death of me and my kin.
 

no. its what i lived with. if you add vehicles its just like adding. bannana pieces to a strawberry yogurt. it tastes good but its just not like the original.

Re: Those blasted Air units are gonna be the death of me and my kin.
 

yeh i can see where your coming from but after awhile strawberry gets boring and you want somthing outragous like choc caramel suprise .....i mean you cant always have your cake and eat it you have to take the good with the bad being aircraft but im sure that given time youll find them to be a huge help if there is the insertion of various AA vechlies and turrets ...

Re: Those blasted Air units are gonna be the death of me and my kin.
 

When I meant FPS i meant in a tactical way.. If anyone hasn't played
Call of Duty 4, aircraft played a very important role by striking heavy enemy positions when it became a problem for the ground forces..

I don't see too much difference in both game genre's I was aiming to specify on the aircraft not the gameplay..

Re: Those blasted Air units are gonna be the death of me and my kin.
 

so what you saying is that instead of full control of aircraft youd like more abilities like various airstrikes and such ???

Re: Those blasted Air units are gonna be the death of me and my kin.
 

I guess you could put it that way, I believe that the player should feel that the aircraft should be an ability that is rare and should be used in the most dire of situations.

If it isn't this way we will have players abusing the ability and probably will be spamming a whole fleet of fighters.. this will be the best christmas gift for rushers

Re: Those blasted Air units are gonna be the death of me and my kin.
 

yeh i agree on the spamming part but theyll definalty hard cap if it already isnt in a patch and also i think that aircraft might be a higher tech weapon with weak ones first progressing into fighter/bombers later as you do in veichles and infantry but i urge you not to make your judgement yet until you trial the aircraft and see how they play ...

Re: Those blasted Air units are gonna be the death of me and my kin.
 

As long as it keeps the game in a tactical feel.. I don't want this to turn into Command and Conquer

Re: Those blasted Air units are gonna be the death of me and my kin.
 

yes cnc was more spamming units since there were no limits but it was sometimes cool to see mass armies killing eachother.

Re: Those blasted Air units are gonna be the death of me and my kin.
 

You just hit the mark there!!! Those aircraft will definitely steal the thunder from the true stars of the series which are the infantry The only thing that made the series stand apart from the rest of the c&c clones was beco'z it focused more on the infantry tactics of combat. And those damn air units will take it away if not made right.
Hell!!! The original and D.C itself still got a lot of issues regarding imbalance and those last 3 games don't even have aircraft in them yet.
