I think that instead of only ground vehicles, there should be aircraft, like fighter jets and helicopters, or transport aircraft to quickly transport a large amount of players. Another awesome thing to include would be rappeling from helicopters or cliffs. but having aircraft would also require anti-aircraft guns or turrets.

p.s. this is my first topic

there's vehicles in shootmania?

Why else would I be posting this?

That is news, where did you get that info from?
If it is a reliable source, i will add it to the centralised news topic.

for some reason im finding this hard to believe also...
vehicles are for TM, shooters are for SM.
at least i think so. Hylis?

would be great to do a complete mod though

Huuuge questmania PVP map where your car is your mount

now that i think of it, not such a bad idea ^^ a complete mod using all 3 gametypes would rule
(although i think it'd need to be done through maniascript and with the help of loads of community members including nadeo staff)

I present to you: SHOOTRAQUESTMANIA... No it would most definitely not be awesome.

lol, need to do something about the name, i agree.
But with all 3 you can build a gta that doesn't have crappy controls


To get back on subject a bit: according to the interview with florent, shootmania will have collision.
If it also has cars it could be really interesting. spawn somewhere predestined, run through a crashcourse and get inside vehicle.
(of course firearms disabled through maniascript)

If it doesn't have cars, but does have player collision, (hopefully with a little "kickback" added to it) you can create a custom player model in the shape of a bumpercar

Collisions and cars are two different things as far as i can tell. There needs to be collisions so you can't hide inside of the shooter by running up to him. If you are always in gun range then it's a fair game, everyone's able to kill anyone no matter how close they get.

collisions between player models looking like players or player models looking like vehicles isn't much of a difference. Just need to stay inside the hitboxes of the player, so it'll be tiny (slow) cars. Still doable though.
