Title: Just a thought...
Post by: Woolie Wool on August 25, 2003, 12:10:52 pm
Some people may want to observe a battle from another ship's eye view. Have you noticed something about the Volition models? Almost all of them have eyepoints. Even the Lucifer and Typhon have eye points. Something to think about...

And those people who want to 'observe the battle' from another ship's view can do so by targeting a ship and pressing the pad / key...

They could, but they'd be getting shot up the arse.

Woolie, the next time you discover some little nugget of information about FS2 and come to HLP to tell us all about it, consider this - we've known about it for years. I wouldn't make a point of saying this, but you pull this stunt about once a month.

Well, it would be better to have the POV(Point of view) from a turret if the player is observing from a large ship(or even a bomber with turret!).

SCP guys? Where are you hiding? You cannot escape from this :D!

:wtf: Why?

Not to mention that's hardly something relevant or even cool enough to be coded..

But I think it would be good to have this feature. Just by the goal we can see how does the Ai aims.

Point at the point where the player will be. At aim with almost 100% accuracy.

He's got this thing about ai being 100% accurate with everything, wouldn't shut up about ai being 100% accurate with dumbfires either...

What is wrong with the AI missing once in a blue moon? I only get like a 25-30% primary hit ratio.

I suppose if you are playing on Very Uber Hard and flying in straight lines with an Ursa.

You mean an Ursa with 'shoot me' and a big target painted on it.

OK, 100% is really an exegeneration, but it has inhuman aiming abilities anyway.

You gave it to yourself for making a retarded thread.
