I evened the playing field by telling everyone how to do it, BUT! I also told them how to defend themselves against it.

This is no different then discussing the shore battery bug, if people don't know about it they can't defend themselves against it.

I'm helping the people who fall prey to it more than i'm helping others accomplish it.

It is easier to stop someone from getting you, than it is to actually get someone with it.

So in the long run, due to proper info of defense it will cause a reduction as a whole, because people will more likely get killed trying it.   Because everyone has become familiar with how to defend themselves against it, until HT gets it fixed.

To me cheating is doing something that others cannot, in this case everyone can equally.  I think it is a stretch to say me helping people defend themselves is helping them cheat.

 I didnt type "See rule #8 " to infer that you are cheating , but to show what should be done when you have an issue with an exploitation ,or "cheat" .  It is just cleaner for all involved if this is taken care of privately IMHO.

On some of the maps, or maybe just one, you could park inside the SB without being seen and pop GVs at will.

I agree. Should be the same.

SEE RULE #8

 8- Cheating allegations or descriptions are not allowed. Email support@hitechcreations.com to report any issues regarding this. HTC permanently bans anyone caught cheating in Aces High. We take cheating and allegations of cheating very seriously.


Not even close to the same thing. Cable jerking, ya. Exploiting a quirk of the game ain't the same thing.

On the contrary, if I got mad every time I read something on these boards which could be qualified as stupid, counterproductive, or otherwise useless, I'd have had a massive coronary within hours of finding this board. The only thing you're helping to accomplish is causing increasing numbers of newer players to exploit the game, by explaining how, and then saying "shooting them before they can use the exploit will keep this in check". Duh, gee, ya think? That's a great fix for everything. This mindset that explaining exploits in detail somehow helps is only going to set an ever lower standard for the next new guy, who'll likely try it, ad infinitum.

About the only positive effect this could possibly have, through no effort or intent, is that all the idiots will gravitate toward camping and racing to use the exploit before it can be done to them, thereby keeping the chaff out of my airspace. Again, I'm sure the guys who primarily play around in GVs won't appreciate this trend, but it might make things better for me.

on a lighter note.
i believe the collision model should exist the same with gv as it is with aircraft.. think about a jeep running into a brickwall rearend of a tank. wouldnt be pretty to see it....

This thread got closed and now it's back open, why?

Hub-For someone who has no clue who the GV community is, your a great spokesperson.  Your one voice, a loud and abnoxious one, but one none the less.

I Like the idea of collided result if you run into an enemy GV, just like in planes

"You're"
"obnoxious"

Don't throw around insults that you can't even spell.

It was probably unavailable while some of the posts were deleted, scroll back up.

Jeep dweebary and a bunch of guys who apparently have nothing better to do post 100 messages bashing him for it. His critics are people I've never seen in a tank. What is wrong with you? Your mothers lock you in a closet as children or something? Talk about wasting bandwidth? It's all some of you do.  If your not interested in some game exploit pertaining to GV's then go read some other thread and don't bother the rest of us with your opinions on the subject.  

I appreciate the effort JMFJ.  I'd heard of the exploit and I make sure I kill any dolt that even looks like he's trying to get close to my tank. I spent an entire afternoon recently sitting near the radar shack by V5 (ozkansas) killing panzers that were trying to drive inside it :) Not realizing the bug was fixed, a couple even flipped their tanks trying to get through the door.

You really need to read the whole thread, look a few posts up from where you posted the quote above
