why?

hey Stuberlone....
i agree that squad fights are the most immersive ones....while Bounder and me are part of a big group, and can enjoy such events on a regular basis, the fact remains, that only a very small percentage of the community is part of such groups.
the majority flies alone on online servers or offline.
you say that flying at such low altitudes is unrealistic....thats just not true...its only unrealistic to fly through a whole forest without a scratch.

besides it would add a lot to immersion when trying to emergency land....now its way way too easy to get the plane down safe....but it would be a real challenge once the trees have a collision model, and therefore way more fun...im really looking forward to that day.

it would be neat as well, to outmanouver your pursuer flying on deck between a avenue of trees, looking back and seeing him colliding with the trees.

sure, it shouldnt happen often to fly that low, but it will.just imagine your airfield gets strafed...not at all unrealistic....combataltitude=0-500m the first moments at least.

+ you say, that driveable vehicles have a higher priority for you than collidable trees?ok fair enough although i dont share that view,....but then ill have to ask you how you want that to implement, if trees dont have a collision model?would look really strange to see human driven vehicles cruising through forests.

+ you say you hit a tree every 50 hours of flight?waoh thats pretty often i have to say....but again i have to ask you, especially when its that often....dont you wish to crash with that tree then?

for me personally its pretty clear(and i dont speak for most of us like you do)....trees are a major part of the environment we move through trying to immerse us.
just like weather, or better the lack of....
for me personally it has a high priority.
