I will be a Spy
« on: October 24, 2010, 12:50:43 PM »
If I see CV's being hidin out of extreme range, I will call it out.

Its my 14.99 and I will play it like I like.


p.s. I wont call out battle plans or up comming ops.

Just hidin CV's.

Unless HTC comes up with a suitable response to this problem.
Wish.....find a way to scuttle Cv once past a certain point in
reference or time.

I see more of a problem with people moving our cvs to far positions, then switching back to another country. This happpes often @ odd hours of play...

I don't like the cv's hidden either but I won't switch countries or call them out on 200.  Hiding some cv's is ok but not using some when we have bases around port isn't helping.  Ya it's your money play however you want is your attitude thats fine but you'll forever be a tard to me if I see you doing it.  I'll let you get killed before I will jump in on your six to save you.  I don't think we need to be taking this sort of action and that's my 2 cents.

I usually try to turn the CV back toward the action. If it is taken away from me and turned towards the "back woods" again I call out and tell everyone on the country channel that if the CV doesn't turn back I will report it's location every 5 minutes until it stays turned toward the action, or is sunk.

I've seen it work both ways, return to action as well as sunk (guided people strait to them). It's a game, there is no reason to "hide" them.

No..thats your 14.99

Tagma...Hiding Cvs at the lowest Left corner possible
when you have Numerical and Base superiority is just about criminal.

Where is the Honour that is supposed to be here.

Does <S> mean Nothing? That is a measure of Honour. If you <S> everyone and then
stoop to low tactics then it means NOTHING.

Honour....Respect the Word and the Intent and Meaning.

I dont get worked up about CVs or HOs or pickers or any of that childish fluff.  Do whatever floats your boat.

Great post, I was amassing them Friday night to make a 3 CV group raid, since they were hidden I felt that it was ok to get them all grouped up and sent back into action.

Obviously not because once they were steaming in perfect formation a squad took control of them and dispersed them back to the corners of the map, I was told that it was stupid to group them all up and to send them in at that.

Hiding CVs is a very stupid thing to do, if you want to win the war it doesn't even help because on the large map like we have right now, it is impossible to win.

HTC needs to put a timer or limit the range of them, makes sense because a CV could just keep going straight for months on end to my knowlegde.

As for now, I'll just have to keep BnZing at the same base until the map is reset and more fights are started.

Ballpark time will do...extimate, guess-tamate, you need not be exact to the second.

If I see CV's being hidin out of extreme range, I will call it out.   why not just move it into play??

Its my 14.99 and I will play it like I like.  sure it's your money, knock yourself out


p.s. I wont call out battle plans or up comming ops. you think people are going to post anything when they see you on?

Just hidin CV's. Again, move them into a fighting sector, or just "UP" from that CV the enemy will see it and kill it, no spying needed there

Unless HTC comes up with a suitable response to this problem.  i don't think giving HTC a ultimatum with "spying" is going to make them institute something just for you
Wish.....find a way to scuttle Cv once past a certain point in

Personaly Spying in this game is a joke and most people either take offense to it or just choose to ignore that person in game all together
edit....  when i see CV's out in nomans land i change there course into battle, if someone complains i ask them why hide a cartoon CV im going to put it into play, only the cartoon captains get there feelings hurt

I see a lot of CV over-management.  That is, take port X and CV X, and then move CV X out to somewhere safer and bring in CV Z from another port to defend the port.  The problem is when CV Z goes down it's not going to respawn at port X, so eventually that port is going to be lost.  So now you've lost a base and have a CV you can't really use.   So better to just leave the CV near the port if it's in a hot zone.  Or attack with it right away.  
You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike.

Has it occurred that some people actually like hunting them down?

I enjoy  finding then repossessing enemy cv's with a group of guys in 234's...

It the only thing worth spending bomber perk points on...

IMHO:

Hiding CVs...BS!

Switching countries to find CVs...BS!

Switching countries to maneuver CVs out of action during a fight...BS!

Broadcasting CV locations on 200...BS!

Just a game, but all of the tit for tit childish actions stated above make it less fun for all.

Bush..It was not 1 CV... It was 2 from 2 Different countries.
All hidden even tho you had # superiority and bases.

Happens frequently. If it was an occasional instance it wouldnt even be mentioned.
