I don't like the fact that the trees next to the map room and shrubberies by the main VH at the V-Bases are gone. This makes it very hard to land a goon because all the enemy has to to in make it out of the spawn hanger and start shooting. It makes defence too easy and the skilled goon pilot that can land by the trees and take a base under fire a little less in demand now. I hope the trees will be back on the next patch. While I know this is Aces High and not Tanker High I enjoy GVs or did. The game play for the GV is getting harder and less and less fun all the time. It is like cigarettes either band them or let um alone. Bring me a Shrubbery.

when i first logged on last night, i wasn't gonna do anything, besides go off to the side of the map, and mess with stick settings, etc.

 a squaddie was calling for troops. i took a goon, and flew a few miles north of the battle. landed on the downhill, with engines off, and coasted right to the edge of town. the red guys never saw me.

 i'm a sneaky bastage i tells ya...... :rofl :aok :rofl :rofl

The one thing I would like to see go away, is the ability to see enemy GV's icons from the air. You can't see TIGR or PNZR if you are in a GV and are lookin at an enemy GV. I don't think you should be able to see the enemy icons from the air either.

I like the new terrain for GVing. The light green panzer skins blend in perfectly. There seems to be more trees and shrubs around spawn points aswell (Might just be me though). You spawn campers might have to actually fight  :aok

Unfortunately, it doesn't help the Panzer much as his (and the Tigers) default skin is still orange. On the other hand, the M4's default blends in even better than ever before. I had a long-range fight 2 days ago with an enemy Sherman that I could only spot indirectly by his muzzle flash. I doubt he had the same problems with my orange skin.

When you are flying overhead, The GV's still have that "twinkle" that gives them away for miles....
Like shootin fish in a barrel... Tooo easy!!!

Some ppl like it that way tho... I won't be GV'ing any time soon.. Don't like feeling like a steak,
just waitin for someone to stick a fork in me...

You can keep the IL2...I will take the 75mm.

Can kill tanks/gv's without ever getting in range (save the osty)....

very true Snailman. I hope they fix that (even though they shouldn't have to, it's too bad people disable player skins so they can game it a bit.)

Here is a screenshot from just a few minutes ago in TT. Nobody can say that there's no place to hide.

WE did not move any spawn points that we know of other than some PT spawn points as the shore line changed slightly. What points on what terrains have changed?
