Thoughts on fuel?

Postby Wakke » 19 Jan 2013, 23:14

I have a feeling the fuel time of all aircraft can do with a reduction, thus boosting the use of airstaging. What are the current thoughts on this?

Not all aircraft maybe, but definitely stuff like ASF imo.

Quite posibly. Atm you only really need air staging for intys and T3 AA gunships. Would certainly be nice to make it an issue for ASF.

I think if you make fuel last for a shorter time then you will force more micro which is never a good thing. I build airpads BTW.

How often do people see asf run out of fuel?

They are a whole map whole game air force, which seems a little silly to me.

Blackops did this in its balance mod. Reduction in fuel would increase micromanagement but it also will increase use and strategic importance of air pads and of mobile airpads. For me it is a go specially for fighters not bombers or gunships.
