The Spartan Special Ops - Now with more LOLgasms!

Why is that when you destroy a vehicle in a game, it just instantly turns into a black burned out wreck?

Destroy a car, now it's a burning and already blackened.

Why can't I destroy a car with area specific damage, and have fire consume the upholstery then pain, then begin to melt the metal?

I think it was Crytek that was working on soft body car physics. Do you think they will add accurate vehicle burning?

Just like a tank, it doesn't have to be burned out to be destroyed


Flood, do you believe we are far off from realistic damage physics?

ArmA II's ACE mod is getting close with the Cook off module. Probably my favorite module in the game, it's so exciting :D. (Also, for note, being next to a vehicle that is cooking off will wound or even kill you. Your vehicle takes a hit, you better get the -blam!- away.)

Do your own game then, I´m starting my way for mine.
(In all seriousness).

If I had the programming know how, and the artistic skill, I would try to get on with Bohemia Interactive. There are a lot of ideas I have for ArmA III that I would love to see, but since I am a consumer plebeian, would never get implemented.

I've been wondering this as well. Fire =/= totaled
