Reading the Drop Ship thread I saw someone post this idea and thought it warranted a thread of its own. Its defiantly not a quick fix/something easy to plug in real fast.
What I would like to see in our Merc Office is an Arms Room along with a simulator. A room you walk in, and your Drop Suit builds are all set up, thats mainly a cosmetic feature. What I would also like to see is a simulator in that room. In the simulator you can load all your builds, drop suits, vehicles, air, everything. Point being so you can test out your fits, and as far as vehicles go, learn how to use them in different situations with out risking a lot of isk/pissing off people on your team.

You are not the first to mention this idea. Surely you will not be the last. Everyone seems to want a VR room of sorts. |

Still VR room =/= battlefield.

Go and fight hard. I have been. But where does it explain how to use a Forge Gun the first time? Or a Swarm? Or any of the Charged weapons. Thank the Gods for the Drop Ship Manual (the forum posting I mean), nothing in game helped. No pilot instruments in the cockpit or on the HUD. Except the aerial controller setup which helps not even a little bit.
One of the reasons Mercs like/hate the laser is it is easy to use. Right out of the box the very first time. Any noobberry can use it, once they can spec it. The others, not so much.
I figured out the Swarm on my own. The description just didn't make sense to me. I watched others used them then tried and there was nothing to take a lock on. Of course, duh, because I wasn't aiming at something it could lock on. Finally got to a good position and hurt a HAV. Okay, it was a sissy version with only three missiles but I could use it and see that it would be worthwhile.
Here is a wicked idea. Allow a corp to rent a VR testing range. Bad for some, good for others. No charge to corp members, some AUR for non-corp. First corp would be CCP, of course. |
