It now refreshes every 20 seconds instead of what I thought was immediate before..

It actually brings SA and ACM back into the game..

I think I need to buy a Snoopy red baron silk scarf to keep my neck from chafing from it being on a swivel more now than I can remember... :old:

Cheers. Exciting new MA tweaking!  :rock

I agree. I like that it's no longer a laser pointer on a clipboard. Makes dogfighting better.

When I get back from my snowbird resort next year, I will actually login to AH again for the first time since Awacs started to see for myself.

The other night I was fighting somebody I lost them in the clouds. I like that I had to use my eyeballs to try to find him again and not just the clipboard.

It's a welcome bit of difficulty as I track me163's and other high alt cons on my strat runs. Keeps me looking around. I've had a few surprise me.  :uhoh  :D

Loved the old radar and like the delayed reports now. I’m okay with 5 sec delay in reader ring and 20 seconds outside. Shouldn’t be an SA crutch.

I don’t agree, it is more realistic. i would recommend some adjustments (noted in another post) I mean a far is less accurate and that seems to need you to actually look. Hell nme icons are not realistic but are necessary for the game to work, live updated radar isn’t like that. While at it, get rid of the red vehicle blocks and get rid of a stick bush hiding a 40 ton tank! Make those vehicles stand out a snuck as the supply train vehicle. And while i am at it, kill the commander view tank shooting. its not the least realistic, notably in two cases. Shooting over a comb when the gunners view can’t see one over it, and main gunning airplanes, talk about “gamey!” this part will piss off TyFoo, mothman, tankman, Litblue Shane and some other notable commander position gunners.

Please allow us to vote on this new radar either yay or nay. I will be voting nay. All you have to do is turn off your icons if you didn't like old radar

You’re pissing up a rope. Firstly, you’re not using enough of these “ :aok” and praising HT enough in your posts. Try harder!  :bolt:

On point. This ain't a democracy either.

Agreed. Extremely rarely, if at all, did any brick & mortar or online business I ever transacted with care about a "vote".

I don't like the new radar either. If you want more realism have a seperate arena for that! We have been playing this game for years with what we were using and now it sucks. It doubly sucks now that it fades in and out where you don't even know where your squad mates are. Please put it back to the way it was!

OMG PEOPLE!!! Hitech isnt done adjusting the Dar. He is looking at make those in the dar circle update position 4X faster than those outside of a dar ring. On top of that he was going to turn on friendlies all the time, no fading.

Give the guy a chance to work out the code and get it added!


This one seem to be appropriate again....
