Lightbulb Chinook Transport Craft

You know the traditional Chinook helicopter with the dual rotors and slided open doors?

Just wondering if per team you get 1 helicopter with no weapons.
you can climb in as a passenger and slide down a rope to land.
Or you can pilot it and transport your troops around.

Players can spawn inside it but it can be destroyed.
Players can shoot from passenger deck also using their own guns.

Helicopter has fuel and will occassionally need to land at the spawn base and the fuel will regenerate.
This stops the helicopter staying over areas such as base 1 and gives players which have yet not died, a chance to board the helicopter.

If fuel depleted to 0 the helicopter will die but each base has a helipad and is usable if the base is captured.
If the helicopter is on the ground you can also drive your speeder into it and drive off the helicopter while in flight.
I think it would be fun and intense.

Helicopter has been suggested before, but you have really made the idea good. Well done. :]

Thanks.
With the fuel system too you cannot constantly stay over base 1 and things either, meaning you will have to leave one time to refuel or repair giving the defenders of the base time to recover and so on.
Also giving those players who just say 'no' to death a chance to climb into the helicopter without killing themselves.

You can make a cool entrance to the battlefield by sliding down the rope, drive your bike in it and drive off in mid-flight or allow the helicopter to land and plant those box defenses you were carrying. It is endless what you can do yet the helicopter relies on the teamwork of other players.

Isn't that what war is all about?

X.x I was talking about this game.
We humans are greedy, we take territory not because we want it, but because we can take it.

No offence america.. but you are the most greedy.
They declared that when technology is made, they want total control of the space around the earth.
'Thanks america.. we'll just inhabit this nearly dead shell of a planet then.'

Anyways back to the game Teamwork is what war is all about. Teamwork and fun.

Teamwork is key to victory. Zone isn't based on it though, its based on luck of who joins what team. Which is why my guild can win when its 15 vs 4, because we use teamwork . If Zone newbies listened to Oldbie players who know more about the game then the game would actually get interesting. I really like your idea, it has the potential to force players into teamwork .

A chinook has two propellers on it (dual rotors). Unfortunately, this means that only one of them has to fail for the helicopter to crash.

Pretty cool idea, I suppose.

teamwork?!?!?! I just do what you tell me to and hope to unimax almighty that i don't die, and to get on-subject, i think its a good idea but a little lame uless there is a limit to how many people on at a time otherwise people can just get the whole team on and then go to enemy HQ and raid or use mortar from the helicoptor(which i would use frequently lol)

No thats called teamwork. You newbies going in TOGETHER rather then run in on your own and run into mines and die

Now see this guys? This is a person who knows what he is talking about.
Teamwork is a definate key to success.
How many times on zone have you played in a team match, you are on the dominant team yet the other team manages to be a pain in the ass?

Its because we all go rambo-style tackling bases individually in low numbers of 2 or sometimes by ourselves.

This helicopter idea will help organise mass invasions and since it will be fun to drive and ride in it... players will be together and will attack bases with a good garrison of troops.

Those rambo players can go ahead and get themselves killed if they want to.
