What is going on?
« on: Today at 09:28:49 AM »
Why are c47's still enabled at any flak base next to a strat on any map in the MA rotation?

Dumb chit

Its not any map, only some....but I agree, there should be no super easy resups on any map.  10 minutes off should probably take 10 minutes of work.

So, 180 minutes of added downtime should take 3 hours of effort?

One person spending 10 minutes to resup takes off 20 minutes since 10 minutes passed as well.  If 5 people are resupping thats 2 hours off in 20 minutes.  On many maps thats a 2 hour flight for a bomber to hit the target and land, shouldnt be resupped every 2 minutes by spam goons or m3s.

Good luck finding 5 players willing to make three 10 minute flight/drives to resupply -- the most boring aspect of the game.

Also, don't forget to add the time required to resupply field assets that are destroyed while the strat resupply effort is underway.  More time spent in the most boring aspect of the game.

On the other hand you could have 5 bomber groups take off at 10 minute intervals to counter act the resupply. But again getting 5 guys to work a strat like that.... not so likely

That means of course the deletion of the Brewster on the few vehicle bases that have them as well.

The intent would be to discourage mass resupping, I would hope it would be hard to find 5 guys, otherwise whats the point of hitting strats?

very easy to find 2 guys over 40 minutes on 1 of their multiple accounts to resup a strat from a flak base every 5 minutes.

Add 2 accounts per player and your resupping a strat under 25 minutes

It is ludicrous to allow c47s to resup a strat with todays numbers. KONG and others dont want the strat system in the game period and this is how you neutralize it.

And dont try to defend KONG in regards to my allegations regarding strats. His map is the only one with 3 flak bases in vicinity of AAA and Radar... thats like a tranny dude trying to say he is a chick :ahand
