Just Say No To Dot Radar:
« on: August 14, 2000, 07:29:00 AM »
I realize that some dislike all the radar altogether.  This thread is NOT for total disband of  current radar, but only for disbanding DOT RADAR.

If you'd like to see dot dar disabled, gimme a AMEN.

If you'd like to see radar stay the way it is, gimme an "UP YOURS!".  

Edit: DOH! Supposed to be in Gameplay and feedback forum.  Sorry!

Dot dar recreates CGI in WWII. Ripsnort you who like so much the P61 should know that in WWII american ground radar controllers were able to vector fighters towards enemy SINGLE cons...with an error of only a few kilometers.

Same happened on Germany with the radar chain system from France to Germany.

SOrry if you dont like it. I see it as another realistic feature.

what I dont see realistic IS radar bars showing enemy activity 4-5 sectors away from your nearest radar field. THAT is unrealistic.

Dar dots isn't.

So...
UP YOURS!!

pssssst....

You can kill the radar.   Don't tell anyone I told you.    

Seriously, it amazes me how often a field will be attacked -- for hours -- and no one kills the dar.  We all want Strat right?  The radar is a valuable Strat target, worthy of a bomb or two.

UP YOURS

You smell that? Do you smell that?
Napalm, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that.
I love the smell of napalm in the morning.
The smell, you know that gasoline smell, smelled like victory.

Amen,

dot dar belongs in tower.

Chute killers should have no dar at all for 24 hours after killing a chute.
