Well, that title did nothing to represent the actual topic at hand. All you really know is that I plan on talking about bullets. At any rate... First and foremost, I'd like to say that I can't find my install disk, so I can't reinstall and test this on the original renegade. With that said, though, there are a few things I'd like to ask. Do bullet weapons' ability to damage armored targets seem a little off to you? I mean, I know that they can't hurt a tank, but I thought that even the basic assault rifle rounds and pistol rounds could damage the lighter targets (Mainly the two artilleries) as well as harvesters. Even if I'm remembering wrong, isn't the sniper rifle supposed to damage the Nod Artillery the same way it damages the GDI MRLS? I'm not sure if this is a bug, or my faulty memory, so I'm just posting the thread in the general forum here. ... In other news, the chaingun is awesome. I can't wait for its laser counterpart. =P

Why not have a combination of enemies appearing on the radar when targeted, and them appearing on the radar when they shoot? I dunno, I just like the idea of having ambushes like that. You know, you're driving along, not noticing the bunch of rocket soldiers hidden in one spot. Your radar's clear, all you see is yourself, and some other guy in the distance. Then, all of a sudden, it's all "OMG RED DOTS EVERYWHERE". Then you get hit with 10 rockets. Or, well, gold dots if you're Nod getting ambushed. But still, the system functions in identifying immediate threats who are trying to kill you, but still rewards people who are stealthy, as well as people who are perceptive.
