Tank Town GV bombing solution
« on: December 14, 2010, 02:59:14 PM »
Drop a layer of clouds to 1k or so.  Would prevent bomb****s from spoiling the fight between the V-bases.  Thoughts?

Right.... so i want to have a nice GV fight in a part of the map designed to promote GV fighting so I need to fly an airplane over every XX minutes to drop the ords at two different bases so myself and 15 other GVers can have a real knuckle biter of a knife fight.  

Yeah.... gonna need you to come in on Saturday.... yeah

My favorite map for the GV fight is the one where the TT is in the middle surrounded by high mountains.  When a fight starts there it sure can get fun.

It doesnt matter where you tank at... somebody will take 30 min to climb the mountains just to drop bombs.

 Tank Town..... never heard of it.


Why would we want to stop.... the reason we have tanks is to give us something to bomb.   


It is a flight Sim after all.

I think there should be puffy ack in Tank Town with lethality set to about 4 ( instant death in offline play )

It won't bother anything that's under 3k.

Kills anything above it.

  I think fighters and jabos should be able to climb without losing any speed whatsoever... like the GV guys get to do when they
move off a road and go cross-country without any subsequent loss in speed.

  I think fighters and jabos should be able to pick up "supplies" in the air, which somehow magically repair/replace
every single part on their aircraft which sustained damage.

  I think certain parts of the air should be considered "concrete" for fighters and jabos so that they can loiter there
in the middle of an air to air fight. If they sustain damage, be it minor or major, they can just hit .ef and
miraculously reappear in the tower, resulting in a "successful landing" and denying the enemy a legitimate "kill".

  I think there should be a "dOmE oF dEnIaL" 2K around every airfield and aircraft  which repels any caliber round fired from a ground
vehicle at any airfield or aircraft.

  I think any aircraft which is vulching should be able to hover over the field for two hours , receiving a full gun/cannon/ord loadout
immediately whenever a friendly C47 flies over it..or within 200 yards. The C47 would drop several crates of ammunition
which would be instantaneously loaded and armed.

  I think aircraft should be able to magically "spawn" an entire sector or two away from a friendly airfield so they don't have
to waste precious time flying to or perhaps returning to a fight.

Gving is all about spawn camping.

There is no ambush.  There is no maneuvering.

Someone bombs to break the camp, or kills the vh's to break the camp.

Get over the  :cry.

Helpful. You have never complained when bombed, eh.... 

You know I think I am going to start a thread called the most worthless responses to a thread ever.  Or, better yet, the guys who know everything.  Perhaps, Sarcasm...the lowest form of wit. 

I seem to think that:

1. The airfields or at least one V-base on tank island should be uncapturable.  It sucks when guys get on at 2AM and sweep the island.

2.  There should be a part of the map of low strategic interest (like tank island) where people who want to GV should be able to fight without padding the scores of some self aggrandizing clown who wants to up their attack rating.

Ah, nearly forgot.  Yes we know you can tank in other arenas.  Yes, this is a flight sim that has tanks.  Acknowledged all.  A plane can avoid GVs.  GVs cannot avoid planes.  Real...sure.  Balanced in our cartoon world for some of the players who would appreciate a nice GV pure fight...no.
