HOT Air Balloons and Blimp damage

Recommended Posts

If we are getting the blimp i think they should also put hot air balloons in the game the physics arent far out. They would be alot more fun,

Also i was also wondering how they will do the damage on the blimp. What happens if i snipe it will it slowly deflate.

Also i i where to crash into it with a pointy fighter jet i would hope that the jet would catch on the balloon part and drag and tear the balloon. We should also be able to bounce on top of the balloon like a trampoline.

You can't steer a hot air balloon, only travel with the wind.

Unfortunately it's unlikely to be in.

You could just have them set in a random direction would be fun to control the attitude imagine getting hurled towards a building. You'd have to shovel as much coal into the fire as possible

I think it uses propane/gas mixture or something.

I don't think you can crash the blimp. I imagine you fly it around the map and get great views. Maybe skydive out of it.

I imagine it won't be dynamic damage but possibly stages of damage ending in flames and slowly descending until it explodes.

Well this is something I'd kinda hope for. biggrin.gif

That doesn't make sense. How could we fly it but not crash it? Either we have control over it or not. But I believe its the former.

The blimp is flyable, (according to previews) its not just on a fixed route for tours.

Should be able to crash it, but it's hard to picture how they'll pull it off.

It would take an artillery shell to damage a blimp. Normal bullets would bounce off of one and even if you hit through it there is plenty of air pressure to keep it going.

i think it would be cool to damage the blimp like a plane just jump out of it and have a parachute etc. i mean i think u can but i could be wrong but it would be awesome to do. lol biggrin.gif

I think you can steer the blimp all you want we just won't get to control its altitude. This is just my best guess not my wish...I want everything in the game I can get!

It is not an absolute though, we can have control but not necessarily full control. All R* have to do is remove the ability to control its altitude thus limiting movement to only directional steering. IMO it will be set at a default flight height that is well above any obstructions such as mountains and buildings to prevent collisions. It will most likely serve as an aerial touring vehicle allowing players to casually enjoy the view of the landscape and possibly a point for skydiving. I also think it will be a icon which will instantly spawn the player into the blimp similar to the parachuting blips in GTAIV.

I was kinda thinking this too but I'm crossing my fingers this won't be the case. It wouldn't be a big deal to me personally, but it would be somewhat of a let down if we weren't able to control it fully. I'm cooking up all these awful scenarios with the blimp that I want to act out, so here's hoping.

 

Maybe someone could send a Mouthoff to R* posing this question?

based off what i know about the hidenburg (sorry if i misspelled it) if you crash a blimp, it blows up
