73duster Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Do you think we can cause a blimp explosion like the Hindenburg catastrophy? I'd love to see a bolt of lightning cause the blimp to explode into a HUGE ball of flames, with dozens of pedestrians running while being caught on fire.

Doctor_Baconator Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 All blimps nowadays use inert gas instead of hydrogen, so no big booms. It might just catch fire like a regular vehicle, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe in this "different universe", they still use a highly explosive gas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be funny and give both me and you a giggle, but I think it may be indestructible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freezer89 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I just realized it.. with the PC version and therefore mods everything is possible. A Hindenburg skin for the blimp and add explosions to it. Perfect recreation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd just like to welcome our new manatee overlords... I think random major catastrophes would be cool. Imagine you're on your way to innocently play some tennis when a jumbo jet suddenly veers out of the sky and corkscrews onto the packed-out beach, and you get some kind of reward for helping survivors escape and sh*t.

RichyB Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I just have an image in my head that you will only be able to go so slow in the blimp that you will just bounce off anything you 'crash' into. I don't think you'll be able to damage the blimp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic_Al Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Helium doesn't burn, but one thing the GTA universe should have in common with the James Bond universe is that you always keep dynamite in your blimp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finn 7 five 11 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I would love to see blimps explode and burn up. I don't really see it happening, doing the physics for it would be pretty difficult i'd imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karato2300 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 When the game gets on PC, someone needs to do a mod where Chop replaces the blimp texture, like that Big Smoke plane mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
