Plane

Normally a gold box just drops from the sky

but how about making it interesting by adding an animation of plane dropping ?

the jet will be just a part of the sky box and after dropping the gold box it will just fly away

like dropping paratroopers

since its just sky box the jet cannot be shot down by tanks

How is the idea ?

:)

plz upvote if u like

Interesting, it would also give people a better chance of predicting where the Gold Box will fall... 

 

I'd say this sounds like a good idea. :)

Then the animation should also apply to supply drops.

Nice idea, but like all visual additions this one is likely to increase server lag, so I'm not sure if I want to sacrifice ping and FPS for a plane animation...

Supplies are nothing when compared to Gold Box

See , Devs can replace a static skybox with a dynamic skybox

A little increase in Ping would not be that disasterous as long u can catch the gold box

[BlitzPanzer12345 241]

hello ?

someone interested in thiz or not ?

And that's all you care about?  -_-

[BlitzPanzer12345 241]

tell me

a raise in 25 ping will affect u ?

[Maf 32,317]

Maybe not greatly, but there will be negative effect which I'm don't want to have if it's in favour of a useless animation.

[BlitzPanzer12345 241]

i donot think so

it will cause lag

it is just changing the skybox

:)

[Amagi 1,728]

A dynamic skybox would probably lower the FPS of most tankers...

[BlitzPanzer12345 241]

not that much

u see

static skybox = 60 fps [ suppose ]

dynamic skybox = around 57 fp

:)

not much loss in the percentage

You Mean that doesn't have any effect? It Can Make you miss a gold box-

no

wait

its lag

not the plane

so if u r already lagging then if plane is added there will be no difference

besides , the huge SD zones also increase lag right ?

@BlitzPanzer:

Your argument of "lag is already here. so its ok for more lag" is not a good argument at all.

Yes, lag is present. So why make it worse? <_<

 

For goodness' sakes, the Skybox is already amazing. Don't ruin it with extra lag.

Yes, small lags can make a big difference at times.

 

The Gold Box marking is already decent.

If you can't find it then better luck next time.

 

(edit) Maybe if we can toggle it off or on.

But I want to keep the skybox, and DISABLE this feature at the same time.

 

Though really I think this idea is unnecessary. Lol.

Just keep it in the boundary of tanks.

its not for finding it

it is such improving the skybox

a little lag doesnot effect anyone

i repeat it doesnot effect anyone

a little animation will not do anything bad

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

You can repeat it as many times as you want - BUT it still doesn't make it true. ^_^

Here, lets see how you like it.

I repeat, the skybox is already amazing.

I repeat, the skybox is already good. Don't ruin it with lag.

 

Not sure about you, but "small" lag may be the exact cause of either dying to, or dodging a Railgun/Shaft shot, etc. etc.

Could be if you flip, or not flip. It can apply to all aspects of battle. Lag makes difference. . .

Well I guess unless you're a crazy hard-core drugger. But not everyone is.

 

Lag can mess up key strategies/tactics. Such as a feign tactic, etc.

Lag is going to get you killed, or make you lose out on rare opportunities to make big plays in a game.

 

Lag can also affect my aiming, when I am turning my turret.

Small lag, can affect it as well. Aiming is crucial when it comes to versing things like enemy in ranged combat.

 

Furthermore, it may be true that we have gotten updates such as Dynamic Lighting to boost "appearance," but keep in mind that you can still turn it off, and it is still in boundaries with the theme of tanks. Jets may be creative and related to warfare, but I don't want to turn off the awesome skybox just because of a dumb plane.

[BlitzPanzer12345 241]

i am not a drugger -_-

+ this animation works only during gold box

the lag will not effect the game at all

it just work for a few seconds

donot teach me man

i know that but it will not increase the lag in the game

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

Oh right, only for Gold box.

I guess that ain't that bad then.

 

But a jet. . .just for the gold box. . . . . .

Well whatever floats your boat. :P

 

Though I think it will still bring lag.

It is guaranteed that it will bring lag, but only for the time Gold box is present.

 

But it would also make the Gold box even MORE obvious. -.-

That may be a bad side affect, no?

[BlitzPanzer12345 241]

what ??

u thought it was for the whole game ?

oh yes !

a jet will be better than a plane

good suggestion

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

Lool.

What?! What would a normal plane be doing in a battle field filled with tanks?

Obviously more like a jet or something. "Stealth" jet, get it? Since it can't be shot? :mellow:

 

But anyways, don't you think it'll make Goldboxes even more obvious?

Sometimes I like a good "hunt." And it can give players more competition. That way not all Titans/Dictators know exactly where to go .They still have to hunt for the mark.

[metalcrusher 514]

Good idea, but this would probably be best for Unity version instead.

yeah but by the time they reach the marking the gold box has already been taken

because the jet will come fast and go fast

solving the problem of lag

:)

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

Oh, so the Jet won't be parked above the mark for the whole 20-30 seconds?

It'll just arrive in 1 second, and leave ASAP? A really quick animation that not many will see. . . .Eh. . .Don't see the need for this .. . No point.

But as Metalcrusher said, it's best for Unity then.

 

You should edit the main topic. You leave out details like that.
