CV's respawning where they get sunk?
« on: August 20, 2009, 01:56:22 PM »

Has anyone other than myself and a few of my squadees noticed that some of the CV's are respawning at the exact point where they went down?  And a Task Group out in the middle of the ocean with their "route line" coming from their port of spawn and the CV not even close?  Whats up with this?

Just a bug.

They'll fix it.

Its been reported several times in the "Bugs" section of the BBs.

There was a bug on TAGMA map that caused this. Map was replaced for this reason a few hours ago.

Did you see this happening on another map too?

they did it on purpose, so that the furball between the cv and the base can continue, despite people trying diligently to ruin the fun?

oh come on.  They replaced the map.  That was the best part about that map.  If a cv went down, just wait 5 minutes and you can get back into the fight.  Really kept the fights going!

You can't win the map by taking the cv.But it does count before the last field.

i would say who cares....but there's a lot of pile-its that enjoy sinking them in the midst of a good battle.

Among the lamest of all lame actions, IMHO. Sinking a cv just to F-up a good air-to-air fight. Sad. :mad:

edit: bomber guys, if you wanna toolshed, go attack a base or CV somewhere where there ISN'T a big fight going on, and have at it. NO ONE who likes to furball appreciates someone else coming in and ruining the action.

Done it, and it proved to generate lots of good fights between bombers, escorts, and enemy. Not exactly the impatient instant action most everyone wants nowadays, but fun nonetheless.

I love going in alone in a Stuka and trying drop the MOAB on the deck, while the ack tries to vaporize me first. Definitely an exciting conclusion to 15-20 minutes of crawling along at glacial speed clawing for alt. Would like to have the RATOs as a field mod for the Ju-87.  :pray
