Radar Bar and NOE attcks

[WBHoncho]

I miss being able to sneak up on a base from below radar.  The radar bar still gives you away as is.

When were you able to do this?

[WBHoncho]

another game which will remain nameless.

[hblair]

Do a search on the keyword "radar". It was a long and hard fought battle. And we lost.

[Tac]

yes hblair. And its really sad to see that a whole raid of 8+ people going NOE can be torn to pieces by a single person that watched the bar dar screaming their presence in sector. Any moron can watch bar dar and up a n1k or spit or la7 and kill 8 people flying NOE heavy planes. Not to mention screwing their entire strike.


IMO, since the fields now blink when an enemy plane is near, i'd say to remove bar dar below 100ft (to make it hard to stay NOE) and make the fields blink if a con is inside a 5 mile radius.

^ So true

[hblair]

Dive in your foxholes guys, we're about to get it.

[Dowding]

I like the idea of making NOE raids more survivable. But no warning at all? That would be useless in the MA.

[AcId]

if "Base under attack."
then `Blink like it's krimasy`
else "It's your fault for removing the 'Base under attack' warning"
fi

Fear not, Tac

The NOE raids, whether alerted to us by blinking icons or radar bars, will never be any match to a bases' 1-ping ack!



Lost an Ar234 the other night from an ack that shot thru a hangar (was watching the bomb hits from the ext view)

Try CT

used to be able to do it before the Dar for the Blind was implimented in 1.09

I think you still can

[Tac]

CC eagler. CT has excellent bar dar/dot / icon settings. Too bad there aint enough #'s in there most of the time

[Revvin]

Surely now we have the "Base Under Attack" sound and the christmas tree lights we can now have no dar NOE.

[hitech]

Ahh gents, there is no bar dar below 500 ft.

Damnit HT, don't waltz in here and try and cloud the issue with facts!
