New Antagonist Idea

[Ma12tian]

I did a quick search and didnt see any threads mentioning this idea.

 

I thought it would really add to the game to have an aerial antagonist. We are used to only having to be concerned with the enemies on the ground and feel like we are nigh untouchable while flying. An aerial antagonist that could attack players on the ground as well as those in the air would add huge amounts of suspense.

 

Just imagine being in a helicopter and suddenly you hear a screech, you start looking around frantically trying to get a glimpse of your aggressor. You spot the beast closing in on you from behind and immediately go full nose down in your helo to try and squeeze out just a little more speed. As you crest the next hill you glance back to see nothing but blue sky. You have escaped...for now.

You land at your base and climb out of your aircraft, you are obviously shaken by the event. You breathe a sigh of relief and begin walking to your door but by the time you hear it it's too late.A shrill cry pierces the air and you are lifted into the sky! The last thing you know in this life is that the ground that was getting smaller is now getting exceptionally big...exceptionally fast.

What do you guys think? Is it viable?

I don't think you'd ever hear the screech over the loudness of the heli blades.... 

 

Interesting concept, though... though I'm not sure if I'd be a fan of it being able to attack both air and ground. Seems like it'd be a freaking velociraptor of the skies, lol

The UAV kinda fills this spot at the moment.

 

Well not if you are in a vehicle I guess.
