Supression Effect From Low Jet Flybys

[Ninja2dan]

Sleep much?

The F-15's are usually not permitted to fly past 10pm or so, but they sometimes to take off after midnight for training exercises near the coast. The GA and Commercial air traffic isn't as bad either, most non-military aircraft depart (when weather permits) from the runway heading that goes opposite the city. Besides, the whole town has become used to the noise and generally doesn't mind it. I think I sleep through most of it anyways.


Basically, the issue from jet aircraft isn't when they are flying low and slow, but when they are ripping overhead at a fast rate such as during takeoff. When those AB's are burning, the roar can be felt just as bad as it can be heard. It's not really suppressive, but can be quite annoying when trying to talk on the phone or radio.

How often does jets pass by over your head?

How often do you play a map with Jets?

Also - his thread will be locked soon I'm guessing, the Devs don't add stuff in "Because it would be cool".

theres only two maps with jets so the devs wouldint really want to work on ot and when are jets not going to be fying that low.

lol noone is obligated to agree with me or add it to the game. just a suggestion.. and i do fly that low in the game once most aa and enemy jets are down. btw i dont remember, can the gun on the aircraft suppress infantry and maybe tanks?

Let the MODs moderate mate, the suggestion was valid if not desirable ingame.

the gun suppresses infantry afaik, but not dudes in vehicles

don't ever be afraid to make a suggestion if its not on the AAS thread or a resuggestion, fresh ideas do still occur on these forums, and they are noted by the DEVs. Some suggestions aren't desirable, doesn't mean we shouldn't discuss them, in the past I've been made to see the light for various suggestions I didn't like at first glance (though this isn't one of them)

I think that the suggestion is realistic source : <object width="445" height="364"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/vSKIP5DcfKU&hl ... ram><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/vSKIP5DcfKU&hl ... 1&border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="445" height="364"></embed></object>[/youtube]

I'd say we wait for thermis's opinion on this. I mean, he is after all an air traffic control equipment reparier

Nah, this doesnt sound like it's going to happen.
