Can someone working at avalanch or eidos give us the full controls please?

[Callum]

Please

[Poor Bison]

All in good time, they will release these things. Just think of the Just Cause 1 control scheme, it wont be too far removed from that but probably revisions for the dual-hook etc.

[Sadistic_Sandbox_Player]

I'm pretty curious about the hook controls.

Edit: Can you tell us something about plane controls? As seen in the videos (specially the last leaked dessert video) We have a clear idea about tanks(cars should be the same with less functions) and helicopter controls, but what about planes? Can you tell us something about their control? Specially the Harrier. Does it feature true VTOL capabilities? Controls? Something you can tell oh great informant Mycoldman?

[brauny]

Why do controls matter if the game isn't out yet?

[Poor Bison]

Any information is better than no information. Y'know what I mean?

[brauny]

But controls isn;t important right now. I'd rather kno other things first like the vehicles list

[Poor Bison]

Yeah. Specifically, I really want to see the aircraft list. The inclusion of a Boeing 747 would be the best thing EVER for me.

is that confirmed?? that would be awzsome best thing ever

[Poor Bison]

Well, in the "first look" preview on IGN they said this:

"Speaking of vehicles, Avalanche has revealed a handful of this sequel's more esoteric forms of transport, including jumbo jets and something suspiciously like a mobile home" (Link)

Now, unless they got it wrong, the only jet in the world that is called a Jumbo-Jet is the 747. (The A380 is called a Superjumbo, and smaller jets don't qualify for such a title) So yeah, I'm just hoping

[Sadistic_Sandbox_Player]

My reason for caring about controls is because sometimes they lack some functions, specially with aerial vehicles, and I guess they can speak about the controls while they won't tell us anything about any vehicle they haven't shown yet.

And i've always wanted to know about the mobile home

[brauny]

I think there was a jumbo jet in the first one at the main airport. It was a dark green color and i crashed it alot cuz it was so big. So why wouldn't it be in the second one

[skater150]

that was like a b 52 or a c130 cep u cant drop bombs

[brauny]

U cant drop bombs in a 747 either. 747s are the commercial airliners. i don't think were droppin bombs out of a airtran plane because it passes over iraq on the way to china

[Poor Bison]

I don't really care about bombs, I just want a 747!

The airport plane was kind of a weird looking C-130, just mere cargo planes. Thats gone through a pretty significant upgrade though:



They gave us a learjet though, and some other little planes. A large commercial airliner would make my year!

[brauny]

That pic made me cry a lil bit on honor

[awesome_man]

is that a screenshot

[brauny]

Yes thats a cargo plane in jc2. Super pimped out when comparing it to the original in jc1.

[awesome_man]

you go to quick links( in the tabs at top of page) then edit signature.

[brauny]

Yea it does but in the screenshot the laning gear is down in the air. Curses

[Sadistic_Sandbox_Player]

Someone said a plane din't have the wheels... Where was it? Could anyone post a pic?

[polimerjones]

in the media part of the web site theres a video called some thing like "visit panau" there a jet in that but it looks like wheels are down...

Was it there? I'll go check some videos and pics.

Edit: Hey, I'm back, and I think we are idiots. Hehe, I mean, none of those fighters in the pics have wheels! And since they just need them unless they are always on the ground... Well, we can rest right? Maybe some planes just don't have retractile wheels.

[brauny]

I kinda would like to have wheels that way when im an expert pilot i have somethin to hit ppl in da head wit when im flyin real low to da ground lol

[Sadistic_Sandbox_Player]

I would say that all planes in the game have retractile wheels. There sure is a button to take them in/out, like in the glorious San Andreas. I hope.
