I would imagine they would do that regardless, as trying to provide air support on the edges of the ground redzone would be impossible otherwise. |

Right?!
Shooting is something I've only ever been average at, but I can tear **** up in the air.
Well, I guess I can just jump back and forth between Dust and Ace Combat Infinity for now.  |

I will skill into the Gallente ones because I like Gallente, but I won't use them much. I might do a rental service for them however.....
I'm going to laugh too, because I'm going to be the one farming all those incompetent assholes the moment I get in the air. |

They will just throw something together and call it a jet.I already have fits planned for certain setups that might happen, which will smash people. you think murder taxi was bad? wait until you see this.
I want to know how the collision model will work.
If they make it so that it ignores damage to the aircraft like Battlefield, we're going to have a LOT of snipers tears as they get clipped off of mountains and towers by after-burning Fighters. |

Dropships are by no means a strong enough threat to need a new ship type to be their counter.
Many Ambush maps are too small to do much complex high speed maneuvering.
Bombers are generally more useful for anti-personel / AV, while fighters ensure aerial superiority,
and fighters would be largely useless without some bombing craft to counter.
I would say the problems largely revolve around the concept that adding fighters would be like adding Rock to a game that
lacked scissors. just remove red line for jet the redline already extends for aerial vehicles.
What we're saying is that it's going to need to be a lot bigger than it is for Dropships. There was a Dev post some time back about how Figthers move fast enough that on that old 5-point Skirmish map from Codex, you'd still be just hitting the redline over and over.
I'm really hoping they aren't going to forcibly restrict them to lower speeds like Planetside 2 and Battlefield do to artificially make the maps seem bigger and force all the combat into super-close WWII style crap. |
