Why not exchange arty for a AC-130 gunship?

Hauler · 03-07-2007, 09:36 AM

Well I got to thinking about cool things that you devs MIGHT (the key word) be able to do. And I thought to myself man it would be cool if you could make an C130 gunship have it unload on like the enemy. I was thinking that maybe you could use the gatling gun of the A10 but make it bigger then that one. You dont need to make the C130 just the firing effects. What do you think?

Mhh, it would already be a cool feature if you just saw the rounds incoming.
But I guess it's almost impossible to get that ingame and the priority is pretty low.
Also, IIRC, artillery is hardcoded somehow.

do they still use the c130?

As a gunship? Yeah, it's called the Spectre.

As a transport? Yes again.

The only videos I've seen of a c130 were from 'nam.

Believe me, they still use them.

There's a vid of a Spectre in A'stan tearing it up on the net, pretty brutal

If I recall correctly, in POE for BFV they had a map where the US would spawn in a plane that was flying around the map on its own. Would be cool if we could have something like that in PR!
