Strong Bob Posted December 13, 2003 Share Posted December 13, 2003 As a side note, I'd like to make cruel fun of DragonHawk's ability to spell "story". ::Points at DH and laughs non-stop until he passes out:: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ion Mage Posted December 13, 2003 Share Posted December 13, 2003 Just out of curiosity, you did read that I mentioned that non-vacc suits are OK for this mission, so long as you dont cause any hull breaches, and with that loadout you own't be, right? Your' call and all, just that we've been using the vacc suits for the last, what? 4 missions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonHawk Posted December 13, 2003 Author Share Posted December 13, 2003 Doh! Good catch, Bob. Could the AC cause a breach in hull? Keep in mind by hull you have to include windows, etc, if there are any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Terrorist Posted December 13, 2003 Share Posted December 13, 2003 I'd very much doubt that the AC could cause a hull breach, because if we view that the Supply ship is of similar design to the supply ship from UFO, then you will recall that you'd need a blaster bomb or three or some HE packs to pop open a hole in it. I would imagine that the windows would have a similar surviability, though if the bullets are a combination of AP and HE and are striking it for a prolonged period, then the window might break, though this is debatable. But for In Game purposes I'd say that the AC would not be capable of blowing holes in the hull simply because it isn't striking it with enough force, and you never know, the aliens might not fit their vessels with windows, after all are the aliens really going to be looking out of the window enjoying the view?

DragonHawk Posted December 13, 2003 Author Share Posted December 13, 2003 OK, that's a good assessment. And you never know Ego, they might love the view of planets... stars... whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strong Bob Posted December 14, 2003 Share Posted December 14, 2003 Damn, I misread the doowhacky. (I thought we HAD to have Vacc. Suits.) I've altered the loadout accordingly. Also, I recall the Supply Ships having windows in UFO Defense. But they seemed to be 'one-way' only. (You could only see outside them from inside.) But I never noticed any difference in they're toughness. They seemed to blow up as easily/hard as the rest of the hull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonHawk Posted December 14, 2003 Author Share Posted December 14, 2003 I would then consider that to be a simplification made by the game, not necessarily something that we should implement. At any rate, it's probably tough enough, so why don't we just say that there are no worries due to weaponry? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strong Bob Posted December 14, 2003 Share Posted December 14, 2003 That's alright. Besides, with this armor it's not gonna be too good if the hull blows out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
