Camping
« on: January 04, 2015, 03:36:34 PM »
I think most of us would agree that Aces High is primarily designed to be a flying simulation.

Tonight I logged in to see a familiar theme, the 85/86 camp.  Not much going on, the occasional enemy spawning in, too often the same player time after time.  The rest of the map pretty much devoid of any action.

I have a suggestion that may just cure this situation:  Limit the number of gv spawns allowed from the same base.

If, for example, only five gv's could spawn from any one base then the battle would be pushed back into the air where it belongs.

And that's what people are primarily doing in Aces High. By a large margin. No need to limit GV usage at all.

I'm just mad that the new tour reset the arena timer for this map so we get it for 14 days  :bhead :bhead :bhead :bhead :bhead

Then why wasn't this the case tonight and on countless other occasions?

I thought you quit this game a while ago? Didn't you announce it on the forums? Maybe I'm thinking of someone else...

And it was talking about the current map so  :)

sorry pandora, but that would definitely stop me from trying to break my current record on number of tank kills in a pony.  5 with 2 1k lbs bombs :).

-1  Big gv battles are one my favorite things although I fly a lot.  A few hours later, the other side broke the camp and were camping the other guys.  Everyone there by their own choice.  No need to take stuff away from players.

3 spawns instead of one would help. You would still have lots of gv in a small area but it would be very difficult to camp all three spawms. :)
