Talk:SimCopter

message: rescues are POV, RoofTop is 'technically' the most difficult due to sims spawning in the wrong, or inaccessable places.

(This can be dangerous as the patient may still die on the way to the hospital if the player takes too long)
The copter can crash into a building about ten times before it is destroyed.
10 missile hits from the Apache will destroy the UFO and award you 
 half an hour to refuel
The most obvious of these quirks are the civilian models, which appear normal while in the air but are actually borderline grotesque when seen up-close. The "faces" of the civilians seem to wrap the wrong direction around their heads, as there is usually a line that runs down the front of their faces. 
Note: not only is it POV and OR, but the writer who put it as a 'quirk' is an idiot. The reason for civilian models to be of lower quality then building models is because of the quantity of civilian models in a particluar area. Yes, my OR can say that civilians only spawn at a certain distance, but you still have a lot of models to keep track of. (And remember, this is for an 'above' perspective.) Gay.
They speak in a bizarre, grunting language that almost seems like a precursor to Simlish.
(Note: Simlish is debuted IN simcopter, therefore it can not be a precurser (for the time period))
I think it is obvious that nothing in this article is referenced and is 90%  Original Research.
* This grunting language can't be simlish, because there is English text on buildings and other references in SimCity 3000.
Just because there is english text in sim city 3000 doesn't mean that the language in sim copter isn't simlish. Sim copter allowed players to import cities from sim city 2000, Not sim city 3000, Although I did import some cities from Sim city 2000 into Sim city 3000.. If there was english writing on buildings or billboards in Sim copter then I might agree. 67.140.39.131 20:08, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

message: This article contains, quite frankly, an enormous amount of useless information (including the entire 'Objectives' section), unverified claims and a number of trivial waiting-to-be-deleted sections and subsections. This article will require a MAJOR cleanup and rewriting to get anywhere off its 'start' ranking. I'll try to work through this over the next couple of weeks :/ Trollyboy (talk) 03:42, 13 November 2011 (UTC)
