Maharin Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 i can see a server set up in Navezgane now selling tickets to watch people with the Hog to jump the Gulch... lets face it... trucks will be too heavy and the pedal bike is asking too much. A scene for E.T.? - - - Updated - - - Well, the guys who strapped a couple of JATO units to his car... he was air-born. Not sure if its a urban legend or not, if it was, it was funny. Urban legends are so much better than the rural ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gronk Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Speaking of jumping. I hope that the vehicle physics will stretched (in the name of fun) to allow gaining slightly unrealistic air off of ramps. Right now going off jumps just sucks. I'm not asking for the Rush series of arcade racing but we need to be able to make some sweet jumps with these vehicles because its fun, Pimps. The problem with reality is that quite often it's the most boring of all the available options. Making the physics a little cartoony is a good idea. If you want some techno-babble a slightly lower gravity, 80-90% standard earth gravity, and an atmosphere around 25% thicker should do it. Relaxation of the off-topic rules confirmed! :-) - - - Updated - - - I tried for 30 minutes last night to roll the jeep and it never would. The game definitely prevents it. Not sure if that is something they will change or not. I really hope that changes, there's no way of doing that without upsetting a players physics gland.

Gazz Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 I've seen the jeep flip... once. The righting force is pretty strong. Without that there would need to be a system to flip it back. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: But that begs the question... what if you're driving a left-handed jeep? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without that there would need to be a system to flip it back. =) You say that like it's a bad thing. Flipping the car should force the players out of the vehicle. You could go from decimating a horde to bleeding. broken and in extreme danger with a single wrong turn of the wheel. This would generate far more fear and excitement over time for the simple addition of a "press B to flip vehicle" function. Having the zombie apocalypse version of bumper cars would likely make vehicles far too overpowered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonestarcanuck Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 No offence , but I still wonder why you americans call a liquid - gas. Its called petrol. Grr The difference between petrol and gasoline is only one of naming. They are the same substances with largely the same standards. Historically, "gasoline" in British and most commonwealth (ex. Canada) countries referred to a derivative of petroleum used for lamp oil (i.e., kerosene). In the United States and many other places in the world, "gasoline" referred to any kind of motor fuel. For example, methanol and ethanol might have been referred to as gasolines. Eventually people standardized on a single type of motor fuel made from straight run naphtha. "Gasoline" as a term has been around since 1871. The word "petrol" actually is a brand name used to refer to the generic product gasoline, much like "fridge" is used as shorthand for "Frigidaire," or the word "kleenex" is used to refer to tissue paper. The brand name was suggested by the early chemical engineer Frederick Richard Simms, and first used in 1892 by the British wholesaler Carless, Capel & Leonard. Previously, "petrol" was used as a shorthand for "petroleum" - i.e., the unrefined crude oil. CC&L's competitors used the generic term "motor spirit" at least until the 1930s but the name "petrol" stuck in the end. - - - Updated - - - Do you automatically get venison in your boot/trunk if you hit a deer with your car? Auto-collect with a vehicle would make things too easy. yeah I know that was a stretch, but maybe that cow catcher on the front would hold the deer for me!.

dhlmaster Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Probably not that far but setting up a ramp on one side of the Navezgane chasm and being able to make it to the other side or at the very least setting up a ramp next to your drawbridge so you can either drive across if the bridge is down or just jump across if the bridge is up... What about a giant zipline that carries the jeep from one rooftop to the next. Just trying to keep it realistic... Edit: Don't forget to disconnect the line after use, or the behemoth may follow you.
