Friday Update, February 24, 2012

I like the updates.


It's funny, people wanted updates, but the devs can't give updates that most want (patch info + wanted features being implemented), so they give us updates on other things they do have.

People can't fault them for using extras / features / special features, as those are in a show-able (but not releasable) state and to generate further interest in the game.

You know they can do so much with the ground stuff. Like if you have a favorite server, and then join it but a game is started, you can wait. But wait! While you're waiting you can control any assortment of ground vehicles to occupy you time.

I like what is going on. The devs have been moving further along the game and showing what it can be.


One of the things is also I noticed in the tank video was the field of view in the driver mode, some of them looked like it was close to no cockpit. But then again, some tanks allowed the driver to poke his head out, which gave him a great FOV.

Also I hope the tanks are modeled as accurate as possible and ballistics for tanks / artillery are modeled.

LQTM, I can see next update is a FPS / soldier's perspective.

Then all the requests for "Can I control my pilot and make my way back to safety after I bail out . . ." will ensue.

Thanks again for the update
