Hi,
There are 9 upgrades to the vehicle dropoff but only 3 are available out of 60 or so in the game. In the trailers, is a AMV but that can only be found by way of infiltrating a unidad base or spotting it on a patrol or being parked by the road. Why not add more choices on the vehicle dropoff or at least put the AMV in place of the armored Humvee which is almost useless as it has trouble catching a speeding truck in a convoy?
Vehicle placement is also annoying. Many times I've called in a vehicle to find it at the bottom of a cliff as I'm on the road or about 200m away from my location. The helo has also appeared next to a tree where the rotars get caught and disables the helo. The vehicles should span at a location based on the cursor and not be a random spawn.
I got few times vehicle spawned direct on me, witch in process killed me, was funny at first, but after time it gets annoying !Originally Posted by xDarkMACx Go to original post
Yeah vehicle placement is nothing short of ******ed. Most of the time, even when there is plenty of open flat space, it will often spawn the chopper 50-100 yards away. One memorable spawn was 50' above me on an inaccessible plateau. I had to run 400m+ to get to it. Seriously guys, do you even test this stuff? No gamer finds this acceptable and it's, quite frankly, an embarrassment to you as devs.
You should be able to point to a spot and, space allowing, spawn the vehicle in the exact spot. There is no excuse for anything less... unless the rebels actually deliver the vehicle to you like most games. It's also more realistic as vehicles just don't spawn from the mirror dimension.
Also, what the hell is up with choppers sliding down even modest slopes with the rotors still running? A mountainside is dirt, rocks and grass not Teflon coated ice. Seriously guys, fix this nonsense.
Each one of the things people complaining about are minor on their own but, when added together, they really show how rushed and unpolished this game is.
With the new update, allowing the vehicle drop to be a pickup truck, the armored car ( useless as its made of paper, its slow, only the top gunner fires( and the chopper. No matter what is dropped off, Pac tells me my Helicopter has been delivered. Yes a two tone red 4 door chopper with bumpers. Talk about a quick patch, jeeze!
Of course all the idiot drop off locations:
on my head -
next to a tree -
on a 60 degree slope so I can chase after it and try to get inside before it topples off a cliff -
inside a building -
thousands of meters away -
on an inaccessible ledge -
Of course the ledge might be accessible if I could actually climb up to it. Lets see, here is a cliff face that is about 1 meter above my head, yeap no problem, up and over. Next is a ledge about knee height....nope....no way, can climb over that. I can vault over a concrete barrier chest high but I can't jump over a steel guard rail.
I had one that Pac Katari said he dropped off but it didn't show up anywhere. So I started walking to my next objective and then it spawned 500m away from me in the jungle. When I finally got to the chopper I took off and actually managed to rip a tree out of the ground with the chopper. It got stuck in the railing of the chopper and every time I would turn it would hit the blades. Best flight I've had yet.
