so in playing ut2k4 i find it extremely gay that i have to spend half my time running around shooting at fast moving vehicles.
and then i realized the 2 things i hate most about it.
1) im not so interested in playing a mech game where im shooting @ vehicles all the time
2) someone in a vehicle basically gets 2 lives for one
that is to say, i can spend all my time shooting at vehicles but then the guy can just hop out and i still have to kill him. What this does is put almost anyone not in a vehicle at a huge disadvantage.
So to fix this what i propose is that your armor takes 75% of the damage the vehicle takes. That is, when the vehicle takes say 10 hitpoints of damage, your body takes 7.5 hitpoints of damage. That way no matter what they only get one real shot at it, and not the equivalent of two lives.
You can do that, or you can make it like halo where you can hit people inside the vehicles. This is why halo's vehicles were still cool, and other games' vehicles skew the gameplay.
