Vehicle Whores

Post by **RikiRude** » 2006-02-27 21:00

We need SOMETHING to stop people from simply driving and running over people. I doubt damage to vehicles would work but maybe.... when a vehicle hits someone it slows the vehicle down a bit? making it more suspectable to small arms fire.

Eeeeee when it is enemy falling that's ok... vehicles can't say direct fire from support for long time so it is not big problem i think...

Hahaha! I never, ever thought I'd hear someone call another player a "Car Whore". What is wrong with some people?

Something should be done, at least get some damn AT guys on Oasis as it seems the main tactic is just running people over in a FAV. Oh well, it works if nobody takes him out.

I never thought id be playing a reality mod with someone who has a fetish for shemales, but life has a way of suprising you like that.

On that note, Oasis smokes ****. Remove all vehicles on it and it may get better.
The general rule for large open maps like that is give either a) lots of cover or b) lots of vehicles. Seeing as Oasis dose neither, it can get a bit lairy.

I don't know if I should be offended or flattered.

Don't forget the fat chicks.

do note that if the class change suggested in length before in the forum is accepted and put into fray in the final release then we would see less problem with vehicle spam doing road kills since i am certain that even an AT4 would turn a light vehicle into smoldering wreck.

actually, I think it might make at least some sense, I mean, its not really that big of a map, so simply walking/running between places is quick enough... I would think that IRL a few villages would want to stay within decently close walking distance of a water source - the oil field just happens to be in their back yard - which IRL the mideast has oil wells all over, I bet theres plenty of farmers and villagers with oil wells a mile or 2 from their house...

why..................................

Just limit the vehicles and make their spawn time longer so they can't be abused. Stop crying about that shit, already.

No more vehicles on oasis will stop the whores. Should be happening soon.

Giving a vehicle limited fuel would end this quickly.

Quater tanks full for small maps

Full tanks for large maps etc

so what, maybe use the jet afterburner/stamina system, then when they run out, its out... I wonder if the sprint/burner bind would have to be the gas then?

hey but it is funny to drive someone over

JellyBelly · Post by **JellyBelly** » 2006-02-28 09:39

True. But the buggys just ruin Oasis. I mean, being in the middle of a fire fight, with your team along a brow of a hill, firing down on the enemys. Only to have a single buggy run you entire team over. Its bollocks.

after all reading here it remebers me realy to the whining threads over in the BF2 forum at EA.

this is a waste desert map where nothing fits better in than jeeps.
if YOU can´t adept your defense it´s YOUR problem, put 1 AT guy in your team this will do the trick. jeep against jeep is fine too.
if there would be no defense against that situation i would say ok the map is not balanced but the only thing which is not balanced is your tactics & squads.
stop whining, consider remakeing a strategy for this situation.
i have played this map realy often and allways with jeeps and it was never a problem with guys that do roadkills.

what comes next, taking out the APC or choppers? if you hate all the vehicles in the game why are you playing THIS GAME?
have u ever thougt about that this is a little demotivating to all the guys which are courently modelling and skinning the vehicles for the next PR release?

my personal rule is "Use everything that is in the map to win the match"

What would happen, IRL, if a USMC Soldier ran over an Insurgent with his HMMV? Wonder if that has ever happened...

OriginalSnoozer · Post by **OriginalSnoozer** » 2006-02-28 16:36

There is no point in having vehicles at all in Oasis.
The map is small enough to run across and since everyones still packing MG's there's no need for the extra firepower.

Maybe more rocks and stuff to hide behind?

I would agree that getting run over by FAV's alot is annoying, but I prefer to retaliate with a nice AT missile rather than whine on the forums. I recommend everyone else does the same.
