[S] Helicopter Killing

[tomozj]

OK. After playing with some buddies at the gangbase for a few hours last night and this morning, I found that lots of players are helicopter killing way too much. It's too hard to fight, and isn't a real LVP gangfight. People like LVP also for it's anti-lameness if you like, with the driveby menu and usually everyone ganging up on the helicopter killers.

What do I propose? Well, when someone kills you in a helicopter, their helicopter respawns. But, they fall to their death? No. You set them down on the ground, so they can continue to fight with guns if they wish. Also they will see a message to confirm what has happened, (maybe in a textdraw or something so it stays on their screen?), so they don't spam the mainchat with ¨WHY ETMIN WHY??!?!!??!?!¨

I'm sure when I post this others will agree. You could say to implement the driveby menu, but that's a little harsh. This is an alternative and will help combat heli-killers once and for all.

Looking forward to see what you guys think.

That would be cool, but i do think using the drive by menu for heli killings is also good idea. I also know that it is a VERY popular idea. Having the person respawn really high with no parachute, no money and disabled commands would also be pretty cool. No commands would stop them from being even more lame and using /taxi 0 . . .

But TJ has a good idea on how to combat them and i would like to see something done about the people who do this

Tomozj FTW

VERY Nice Idea, I was having a gang war once, and 2 heli's came and killed at least 6 of us, really annoying...

Would be very cool to see this be implimented

Great idea! You have my support!

While it's not really against the rules to do heli-kills, something funny happens when I start hearing complaints about them.  As I'm watching them, their helicopters just seem to spontaneously respawn, usually near the ground where their victims often take revenge on the former pilot.  I wonder why that happens?

Weird. I've seen this happen many times. Must be coincidence that I have only seen it when Katie is on... 

[Stone_Cold]

Hmm that is quite odd . . . :p

I like your idea tomozj but to be honest i don't think its harsh at all, we ask them nicely to stop but they persist in continuing. In my opinion its what they deserve.

What i dont understand is, drivebys are prohibited yes?, why?, because they are a Lame way of killing. Now, i would have thought that if another lame way of killing started to be exploited, then it would fall into the same fate, am i right?

That seems to happen when I am around often as well, odd..
I like the idea, always when they kill someone the heli gets respawned, that'll make them learn I think
