provided you're close.



You just said that the havoc can come up was approaching to steal the arty.. I do this all of the time because people think I'm not looking out the side of my vehicle and come up and try to steal it... It works really well.

Don't be silly. Only an ignorant n00b wouldn't notice you poking your head out.

Hi Dover. Welcome to third person where you can see around corners.

Oderint, dum metuant.
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. - Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt

I'm the opposite. I just about never use first person. Not being able to see round corners is a fairly major disadvantage most of the time in infantry combat.

I can't do 3rd person. Every time I think I'm hitting something I'm actually shooting at the wall, but I can't tell. I think that sucks.

Back On Topic:

"Point whores" do NOT hurt the team, unless the team consists of point whores and nobody is accomplishing any objectives. The you have a problem. It's a common and well-founded tactic is the RTS C&C games to keep one unit attacking a building to tie up funds or units in defense. Why shouldn't you do it in Renegade?

The aiming cursor turns red when you have someone in range.
