So HTC will send a coed to each of our homes and they sit on our laps waiting to take control of the stick if we fly off the map? How did Mrs. Arlo respond to this idea?

A swarm of AI RV8s, with the speed of a Tempest and turning ability of a KI43 and quad hizookas should inhabit the lands beyond maps edge.

Did you ever see "The Prisoner"? I'm thinking weather balloons.

What happened to the coed idea?? We all want to know what Mrs. Arlo said to Mr. Arlo about a coed in the computer room.

She said I can have one but I'll be footing the bill for Mrs. Arlo's masters degree.

:airplane: :devil You know Arlo, I tried that once when my wife was alive and she said OK, but I had to tie her in the back yard till she got used to the idea!
Blue Skies and wind at my back and wish that for all!!!

the asteroids map functionality would probably be fun for one or two days.

actually the asteroids type of map would just make hq raiding easy.
if your on the west side of the map fly out west and end up east next to enemy hq. fly back east after dropping and instantly teleport back to your airspace.

Yep.  It would be used as a type of worm-hole...

Just invoke a 120mph wind moving away from the map on all the borders.

+1  That is even easier.

Actually I'm in for any way to make exploiting this near impossible that is the easiest for HiTech to code.

Add a 40,000 ft ridge around the map.

never once in my ten years did I see an arrow pointing off the map....

and say to myself...

"OMG what the ^%$# that guy has ruined my #^&$%# game...this is bullcrap no one should be allowed to go off the map....if he goes off the map...then someone else will go off the map....and if they go off the map...then everyone will go off the map...... it will be anarchy.....I must put a stop to this kind of blatantly rude behavior"
