Better air crashes

would it be possible to say, double the hp of jets/helis, but have them lose control/power and catch fire at 50% health, so they take the same damage they do now? that way instead of just exploding, they would fall out of the sky more dramatically/realistically

would also allow realistic ejections

Loss of control in air vehicles with critical damage

Vehicle Performance Loss (Crashes)

Vehicles exploding

Damage Systems

Helicopter vulnerability?

Aircraft suggestions (PR and plane whores)

...took me 1 minute to search?

I'd like to see pilots not take HP damage for being out of bounds, but have it damage the jet, if anything at all (IF that can be avoided)

alright smartass, can you point out where in those threads they suggest more concrete engine solutions instead of just throwing out ideas?

Ohh...so the new thing here was the concrete solution you offer?
I`m sorry then. I think i missed that.

Anyway, good sugestion if it can be done...
I would love to see plane in burning flames across the map and hit the ground instead of just explode in the air...

hey when loosing control is it possible to make it heavier so it hits the ground faster instead of just spinning in the air for like 1 minutes?

The damage system is random, and BF2's engine is weird so sometimes we can know the hp % of a vehicle but sometimes we can't. So it wouldn't work, sry.

A moderator should give a warning to caustic. Closing thread.
