I think when X-levels are more implemented, there should be awesome air-vehicles!
- Airports with broken, or low-fueled planes and helicopters scattered around the run way!
- New books you could find in librarys or schools or something that give you piloting skill!
- Various sized planes and helicopters, full-fledged cargo planes to bi-planes, helicopters small to large!
- New buildings, airports! Make it 3X1 long for a runway, with maybe a 1X1 next to it for the actual airport, have us have to know where other airports are so we have a place to land safetly!
- Have planes/helicopters HARD to drive! As in, not only would be need in-game skill, but actual skill in being a pilot of a plane or helicopter, more so than driving basic cars and trucks.
I can imagine having a small helicopter with NPCs in it when they would be better fleshed out, landing on roof-tops of hospitals and raiding for supplies! Or landing outside a town for a raid!
Filling a cargo plane with a car for transporting it across long stretches of land without having to waste gas driving the car.
I think this would be really awesome, but again, airports wouldn’t be everywhere of course, and you’d have to manually do things such as cleaning an airway for takeoff by removing the wreckage, making sure you don’t run out of fuel mid-flight or something! Hell, I think it’d be awesome if there was a military airport that had bomber-planes you could fix up and bomb towns, or later on, enemy faction bases!
-Edit! I just thought of how cool it’d be to be in a crashing plane, and jumping out with a parachute or something! I can’t be the only one who thinks it would be cool.
