there should be a incap animation for speeders
i think it aught to be a player flying forward and rolling several feet after being incaped on a bike
also get rid of the "stage death" for prone.

What we need is a new planet. Like Hoth. A place where vehicles can't be called. Or, if they can be called, they suffer a massive increase in decay rate and decrease in speed due to the harsh conditions.

umm...this affect Rangers how? Most real rangers don't use speeders. We walk or use creatures.

Hear Hear Phenix.
I drive guildies nutz by saying...hey, let's walk back to the (PA/ town/ outpost) and kill and harvest on the way. Two of us did that today and the BH (who really eats ...chip buttys) got enough XP for a box in carbines in the Master Caribeener area, we got 8 kliknik glands, and I got about 2k of meat and a load of hides.
All it takes is once, make em do it and they have a blast. The higher end planets are the most fun to do this on too.

True dat.
But... if we had vehicle-verboten planet, like Hoth, it wouldn't appeal to a lot of people. Wouldn't it be cool to be out in the middle of nowhere, and not see rows upon rows of harvesters? Who would bother to set up their horrible stripmines if they knew they had to run 5km through hostile territory just to collect resources or pay maintenance? The 'adventure' planets are no longer that-- they're tourist traps, every damn one of them.

A Squad Leader can really help convince people to do this--the lack of Terrain Negotiation makes walking places quite hard. It also makes it much easier on the Ranger to not have to wait for everyone all the time

Buy a crate of Travel Biscuits. Give them to your friends :-) (TN bonus food, for those who don't know)
