Command & Conquer : Reborn

I have wondering about the artiellry pieces in Reborn, concerning the eventual (hopefully) vehicle patch, how will their weapons fire?

Given that they must deploy to fire, will they shoot in a straight line like the incarnation in Renegade?

I think that they should not, becasue clearly, it is not realistic nor canon. All of us that have played TS and Firestorm know that artilleries fires an arc (even the original artillery form TD shoots in an arcing fashion.)

What I wish to promote here is that Rebron's artilleries pieces, the Juggernaughts and Artilleries should fire in an arc, not a line, similair to that of a grenade launcher (if it is possible).

Evidently, a change like this would make artilleries somewhat unfit to shoot at most moving targets but reinforce their role as a slow, vulnerable (but with incredibly potent firepower) artillery, not a mobile battle tank.

But before handing this to discussion and consideration, is it by any means possible make a change like this? If so, do say what you will about this humble suggestion.

its possible. the old reborn beta from 2003 had a deployable arc shooting juggernaut, which was pretty strong

Indeed?

Well then. What do you think of it, could it work with arcing shells?

I for one just thinks it gives a more "artillery" feeling with a long, arcing and inaccurate bombardment from above, no?

Just that the Nod Artillerie was well known for its accuracy.
Future times dont forget that, the Nod Artillerie is sure more accurate then all the older ones with spreading fire.
But yea it should should in an arc

A sulotion between making a good way to be able to hit with the artillerie arc shots, a good way to aim, but also dont make it TO easy to hit with it so there is still a little bit skill needed to hit the targets.
I mean they still should hit as good as in TS, still in a way you have to calculate a little bit

None of our vehicles will deploy until Scripts 4.1. We have run into a bunch of problems with getting this feature into Scripts 4.0, so to prevent an even longer wait until release we have delayed the deploying feature until another release. The Tick Tank, Juggernaut, and Artillery will not deploy in the first release of the Vehicle Beta. Because this has severely altered the balance of the game those vehicles have been made weaker, since prior to this change they could only shoot deployed, with the exception of the Tick Tank that could always shoot. The Artillery and Juggernaut were very powerful and still are since they can shoot on the move now.

the juggernaut from the 2003 beta had no problems with the deploying. why is this isnt possible anymore?

What about underground vehicles? will we see them digging in the script 4.0 release?

No, Digging units is for later


Things went fine for deploying vehicle's. One build, they where truly perfect

untill a new version of the Scripts 4.0 came

Well again, i cant say something about it since i dont got acces to this stuff...

will there be anything existend in the vehicle beta, which we dont know already from renegade, besides walking mechs? No, udnerground digging, no deployments, no Buildings rebuildable, no hover mrls, aapc moving on water.

Well, working JJs with Jetpack sound?
... right? ...
