Use of enemy cars..........

Hi all............dont know if this has been posted before, but so many times my squad and I have come across abandoned enemy vehicles that we could realy use.

Perhaps we could have one class of soldier that can hotwire enemy vehicles for the use of. Having only one soldier would also stop the overuse of this.

Perhaps this will not be possible with the hard coding, but it would be nice and probally more realistic.

You used to be able to use enemy cars, but that was taken out for both realism and gameplay reasons. Realism - no one is going to risk racing around a battlezone in an enemy vehicle, there is enough friendly fire as it is, and gameplay - well, kinda the reason I mentioned above. Too many tks.

Also, from a technical point of view it makes the viechles gray on the map, meaning when someone gets of of them its a big "I'm over here" sign.

IRL troops nick Iraqi vehicles all the time if they get stranded.
Wouldnt you?

As for the hot wiring class i say just leave it like it was and they can just jump in cars and drive. Same for boats \FTW

OK how many guys would be crazy engough to hotwiore a car under heavy fire. And in Iraq they cant anymore. Atleast US troops. They are civi cars and stuff so they stay that way. and we just buy are own so HEHEHEHEHEHE! I like that u cant use there cars beacue u can barley see wh ois driving and it would be like a negitive point scoring system not a postive anymore.

It is also no longer a negotiable issue.
Boats, ATVs and motorcycles are neutral until used and then they are locked to the team that got to them first.
So remember, even if you don't want to use one, hop on then hop off and you deny the enemy a vehicle.

Placing a mine under them works wonders for that too.

I didn't know that, hmm interesting. Thanks for the info :grin:

I remeber in FH that you could steal enemy tanks. You then spent the next ten minutes typing out "don't fire, friendly panzer IV" until being tk'd or killed while typing :grin:

But searching is boring and my idea is so important it can't wait !

I bet no one else has ever thought of it.

I also came up with a new theory which could change the way everyone thinks, I call it the "Theory of relativness".
