Grits just admit you have no honor. After all, this is serious business. If I don't have an honorable wingman, die and fail in taking the base, it's not like I can try again. Stop acting like this is a game, get your head into the war effort.

Congrats to the bish who stayed within bounds to take a difficult base!!!
im sure it was extremely satisfying to not to have had to resort to cheating in order to accomplish the same!

and yes...i consider jumping countries to solve a problem "cheating".  i am currently ranked in top 10 (doubt that will stay) and every night could come up with a scenario that justified jumping countries and using my rank for advantage.


"Ohh we are getting banged....let me go take all their cvs and spin them in circles"

or non rank jumping:

"ohh..we are getting banged let me jump and give intel on all missions to even things out"

"ohhh they took our port and cv and hid the cv...let me jump and findout where it is"

to lynx who gets it

and does it shock me that so many on this board dont get it? No...they treat this game like and arcade/x-box game and devalue its gameplay for personal satisfaction.  "this game is too hard..lets enter the cheat codes and beat it that way"   this is a whole culture guys..dont be shocked...they have magazines and forums out to help people "cheat".

  i would never play battleship with zazen...im sure he moves his ships around there as well...."B3...ummmm.....one sec...B3....er miss";)  but its just a game right?

Rooks= Gods. They get the missions done, and although collectively they might all suck, 20 retards can still kill one genious. Rooks get it done.

Incidentally, i dont fly rook. Im a Knight. :cry


If only I could be as cool as a newbie.   But, what you failed to grasp in your lack of humor, is that people actually rolled Tigers to a port.    That in itself is pathetic.

CV's do not all spawn so close to their port, they can dry spawn LVT's which can immediately dump supplies and resupply, forever, until the end of time. So, saying it isn't a loophole in game dynamics doesn't fly... ;)

WMLute!

Absolutely agree. I'm willing to bet this is not a bug to Zazen when he is the LVT plopped on the land a horse-**** throw away from the base or map room. Pure conjecture. We still have yet to hear from HTC if it IS or IS NOT a "bug."

Agree.   They'll whine about what you did for years Zazen.   That truly was one of the funnier moments in AH.

Zazen


As I stated before:
The only reason the CV statyed at the port was because we were being attacked.  What good is the CV to us just sitting at the port?  In this case, at that port, it served the purpose of allowing us to defend the port.  Did it serve any tactical purpose outside of that?  Could we use either the port or CV to take another base? No, we could not.  So, had the need to defend the port not existed, I imagine that we would have moved the CV out into open waters on the way to hit another base.  Once we did that the port could have been attacked.  
The 4+ hours was a direct result of the Bish being attacked constantly.  Had those attacks stopped I'm pretty sure the CV would have been put to good use away from the port.  But given the nature of gameplay it was too much fun for a lot of the rooks to vulch the spawing LVT's.  So the attacks continued.  Taking back the port was not necessary immediately.  So what?  You lost the port.  Let the the Bish move the CV and then retake the port.  Just because it did not happen in your timeframe does not give you right right to exploit a feature of the game (switching sides) to solved your perceived problem.  What threat was there with the Bish having the port?  None.  You could live without it for a little while.

And another thing, did your gag order on discussing this incident expire after one year?  I was just wondering why you choose to comment on this subject now.

Never needed one. I ultimately learned from my parents and others how to play fair, and being the father of three boys, I hope that those values will continue on indefinitely.

While that is true you can get a fleet close enough on most any base, the difference here is, this fleet spawns within range to put the LVTs on dry land. This happens at no other base I am aware of, although there could be more. Respawning the CV so close is what qualifies it as a map bug.

I have found the perfect fix for CVs that spawn amphibs on land (why have the amphibs at all?), spawncamping, sideswitching, and everything else. It's so simple, you'll be amazed.
