umm .. map issues IMHO
« Reply #30 on: March 20, 2004, 04:43:06 PM »
Good work on the map, Fester, dont let the naysayers get you down. :D  Just for chuckles one night I took a panzer to some city or another and lo and behold I saw a battery looking down at me as I got close. Its great stuff!

I'm noticing its a small minority that don't like it anyway, so keep your chin up. :)

fester: you should not have to endure posts like this. You have done the community a service with your maps. I must admit, i had a blast last night on the new one.

Thanks!

Love GV fights on this map, considering I suck in them.  Spend more time in GV than AC. :D

Today was much different. When I posted the above I had attacked three bases and one guy came up to defend. Today, I played rover and found lots of fights. Got BnZ'd and had a blast.

There does seem to be a higher concentration of aircraft near the Vbases, though.

You know bad news is coming too, when you see a bomber formation shadow slide along the ground next to you. ;)

Here's a thought.  If you haven't gone through the trouble of learning the map editor, making a field, debugging it, testing it, reprogramming it, submitting it, getting rejected, fixing it, submitting it, etc.


SHUT UP!

All I hear is whines about how badly our default maps SUCK and here comes Fester actually MAKING new maps and we get the freaking crybaby patrol because you can't milkrun Vbases like pizza.

instead of just showing up by the billions.

I enjoyed the gv battle between the two bases on the west side of the map. Great Fun! Well thought out terrain.

I don't really gv much though, so I'm probably not aficianado enough to give a true epinion.

I was adressing the complaint about the amount of ack.

You also wouldnt see a vehicle marshaling yrd with only 1 garage either.
Nor would you see one lone plane with a couple eggs being able to shut down and entire base on a single pass or two so a second yoyo in a m3 filled with 8 lightly armed men be able to capture it unopposed

Had a blast at one of Fester's tank towns last night. There were about 5 guys defending against a like number of bish at the south field. I checked the north field and saw 3 bish attacking it. Fredex joined me and we thrashed them :). This stuff went on for about an hour. Planes would come in and take down 1 or 2 of the hangers....but, the fight kept raging. Finally, about 15 or 20 bish in planes showed up. Heavy fighters and buff formations. I got about 3 more kills on the planes before a tank got on the field and killed me. Was a hoot and a half watching those guys buzz around like wasps trying to get all those hangers down :D.

Good fun bish doods...thanks Fester :).
