Topic: Aircraft?
Since there is already one "flying" robot, i wonder if there'a possibility to more of them in the future. But with actual flying capabilities.
The exsisting robots may be able to switch to "flying" mode, along with the other modes mentioned earlier. For faster travel, and for tactical deployment of squads (see "Battle Engine Aquilla" game, something like that). In this mode they'll lose some DPS and tanking due to energy rearrangment and hull transformations, so it'll be possible to intercept them from the ground, or to have air-air combat on impassable terrain such as water or mountains. But not that simple, because...
Of course, it'll be fun to have a special robot class which is good in the air, but vulnerable on the ground. Or average in both. Gunships, bombers, for bases.
And a special turrets and ammo for ground-air combat. Those turrets will be easier to destroy from the ground and maybe after that call for the air support
The altitude of flying bot will be controlled automaticly, i think. In client, visually, so it won't fly through objects. For the server it might be like any other bot, but with high terrain passability.
So... Is it nonsence from a newbie, or it's possible someday?
