[R-DEV]Rhino wrote:Yes generally in r/l, rifle bullets go where the weapon is pointing. Our use of deviation ingame isn't so much to simulate how much the bullet will veer off slightly in a random direction at long ranges (although this is what "minimum weapon deviation" is for after you've stood still for some time), we mainly use it to represent the time it takes for a solider to train their weapon on a target, and since we can't do anything more realistic like weapon sway etc to more realistically represent this process, we are left with devation as our only tool.

Granted as others have said, our deviation is quite a bit too much right now even for representing this and we hope we have improved it in the next version (you can check out some of WIP improvements in PR:F which is part of PR v0.98 ) but without something else to represent this process of training your weapon onto a target, having nothing would just mean overly quick and accurate pin-point targeting after doing a full 180 spin and getting the weapon on target in a split seconds and as such this game would turn more into a twitch shooting game like Quake more than a game about realistic gameplay, tactics etc.

Thank You

DEV's, on a different thread a member mentioned players waiting in the lobby to join a full server instead of seeding the less popular ones.

bahlye wrote: I do think its silly that people will spend their time trying to get a slot on a full server rather than make an effort to join and seed other servers.... however that takes effort , this is the main reason there are only a few full servers at any given time.

Would it be possible to implement a player counter in the lobby that shows how many players are looking for a server to join? My thought is that it might show players that there are other players waiting to join and it might encourage people to seed other servers instead of waiting for slots to free up.

To devs - specifically melonmuncher, which maps won't be navmeshed for 1.0? And if you're allowed to say, may I ask why?

BroCop · Post by **BroCop** » 2013-05-06 12:08

Well he navmeshed the majority of them so far, so I doubt he'll leave any out.

to rhino, did the falklands get a col3(the one for AI right)? Would it be possible to have COOP infantry on the main island?

Post by **Rhino** » 2013-05-06 14:44

Nope, it hasn't got a col3 but wouldn't be hard to make one off the col2, but as for navmeshing the map, I dunno anything like enough about it to say if its possible or not.

Ia drang and Korengal, way too many trees on Ia drang and destructable doors would ruin gameplay on Korengal.

But a few maps still need a navmesh so there might be more that don't get one.

Will there be more vehicles for the insurgents?
Will there be different types of mines, Anti Tank, Anti Personell, intelligent mines like the hornet? Bouncing betty or SMime like in WW2 maps?

Im a sapper wh0re on insurgency and new mines will be awesome.

Was the Outerra engine ever considered for PR2?

Outerra

I realize that sometimes it's just better to pick an engine and stay with it, and CryEngine3 certainly has more support, but I saw the "unlimited visibility" and I know that's a huge thing for PR, so just thought I'd post it. Also thought it was cool that the engine supported impact craters.

Rad.

Also, is it possible to code AI to use helicopters in a way so they can actually deploy their troops on the ground? Or maybe if that's not possible, can they be coded so that the troops parachute out of the helo above the cap zone? I know it's not realistic but what can you do.

No it is not possible for bots to deploy troops via helicopter, but we could do the second option if not for this V.

Kits have been redone for coop so that the new kit selection can be used properly, this means no more parachutes for standard loadouts.

Rhino, do you have a map in the making?

None that I'm currently working on no. I'm busy making statics and fixing stuff

Hopefully at some point in the future when I've finished my current non-map related projects I'll be able to make a map, got a few concepts that I really want to make, just don't have the time

Can we expect new huds for tanks, planes ect. Or are you satisfied with the current ones?

Thanks.

is it possible to have or make a humve/car/techi/landrover/ or any other light vehicle tracked like the armored vehicles? basically where its immobile but the personnel inside are not injured.

thx
