You can get a Wirble in the building too????? That's fantastic!
I tried with a couple of other vehicles but could not get in.
You are right about the HE. I was there the day Kilroy's turret was sticking out of the building. That's when the cat got out of the bag. There must have been 10 people pounding the building with HE. It is definitely not a one shot kill with HE. It also is not fun being on the receiving end of someone shooting as you drive by. It's not fun always getting shot down in a plane either though. Someone has to be bait. If this is the only map that has that bug then it could be very entertaining and a real Melee like the WW1 New Years Eve fight. There are many maps and it doesn't come around often but with these new "bugs" it actually adds a lot of excitement to the game. Fly off the top ridge going full speed in a tank and hit the ground 2000 feet below and RTB to the pad. It is fun and it feels good.
It isn't too whimsical but I have been looking forward to it and check the rotation daily. I think it was already taken out.I hope not and am not certain about it yet.
I'm going to post a video of the lift. It's funny. I forgot to mention. A person can drive a tank full speed off the top of the cliff. That's like a 2000 foot drop or more. You hit and drive away....no damage.
Excellent escape plan when under attack on the ridge. I shouldn't be giving away all these secrets but there is another with that map and it has to be intentional.
If you are at V51 or the north base (I think it's V51) if you launch a GV from the base and drive west along the wall eventually you will run into a 3 story house there. It is way out of place and shouldn't be there. Go to the back of the house and look up. You will see a green path of grass. That is a lock-in location for a T34 to scale the cliff.
Another location is behind V51 in the west corner. Look for the second dark dot on the mountainside and look up for the grass trail. That is a great lock-in point.
Just be flush with the mountain and keep holding down W to lock in. Once you lock in you will hear a boom over and over and the whole GV will start shaking. Then simply hold down the D or A key while holding W and up you go on the Luft Lift. Do not let go of any buttons until you hit the second ledge. When hit the second ledge let go of everything and the GV will stop and slowly self climb over the top edge. If it isn't moving just spin the tank around in reverse and back up. Once you make it to the first ledge you can also back up all the way but it takes too long.
Total time to the top is exactly 2 minutes (02:00). It's a heck of a lot of fun but watch out for Tankman and BTBrando. They like to take shots at you as you climb the hill.
I have made it to the top many times but can't stick the landing. It is the most vertical cliff of all that you can climb and it is about 3K straight up.
