Hukka Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 At the moment the vehicles seem to be quite passive at firing enemy infantry units. I don't know if it's a bug or are they paying more attention to more threathening targets (of course you can't kill anything more threathening with a MG). However it adds unnecessary micro-management to the player to order your units to shoot every target spotted. So I was thinking: how about adding firing rules to your units that affects every unit you got? There could be three levels: 1. shoot everything you see if there's a possibility for a kill (no need to shoot a tank with MG), 2. the standard mode (something like what we have now) and... 3. attack only when ordered (I don't know if this is any good for anything) This shouldn't be too hard to implement as the 1. and 3. rule doesn't have many variables. OR maybe just adjust the tac-AI more aggressive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomm Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Firing rules? Do not fire Javelin at targeted infantry when in 'Target Light' mode! :mad: Best regards, Thomm 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowMotion Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 I think a long time ago Battlefront wrote here that CMx2 would allow using SOPs, a bit like Tacops. What ever happened to those? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewood Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 That jogs a memory along the same lines. I'll have to go back and search. I remember that being a feature talked about too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KNac Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Standard Operational Proccedure. Kinda what you ask for. DOn't worry about targeting etc. it will improved with patches I think. Is not something that can't be fixed/changed w/o adding additional features. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlowMotion Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 After some searching found threads like this: http://www.battlefront.com/cgi-bin/bbs/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=30;t=002977;p=7 So there's been quite a bit discussion about this. I don't know what happened to this idea - is it one of those things that will be done in one of the future games? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
