I have no doubt Manx & group other night spotted low dots, recognized the NOE raid & spoiled it. Once you stated on channel one this was the case, I believed it. No reason to doubt it & a big . I agree this will happen with a crowded MA, even with no friendly dot dar when NOE.
However, there are instances where I am confident information of NOE missions was transmitted from countrymen to the opposing side. Ndisles, I had goon out in advance, 4 to 52. I ended up going to the N & E of the base, staying well outside the base-flashing circle. Jabo guys were about 1/2 way up from 4 then a large red bar started to up out of 52.
Nobody broke the NOE alt barrier to cause a BarDar, I was continuously looking at the map. One La7 came my direction, low on the deck. Unless he was flying low NOE away from all enemy direction back towards his own inner fields, he had "spy" information. He knew the precise location of the goon. No other logical explanation.
How did he get info? I don't know, no proof. But it could easily be trasmitted by multi-country squads or by personnal message 1 country to the other. The rest of the NOE jabo guys ran into group of La7s.
To say information is not shared from people on one country to the other is naive. I don't know how often it happens, but it does happen.
Under-dar should be Under-dar, meaning no friendly or enemy dar bar (which is currently the case) and NO dot dar, friendly and enemy.
I think this would enhance gameplay for many, eliminate this Possibility of a countryman sharing information and be somewhat more realistic. Under-dar should be Under-dar, friendly & foe.
There are lots of people I am sure which have flown together in same country and are now in different countries which like to have private conversations. Also, some squads have members in different countries. All though I don't agree, it is perfectly reasonable for these members to communicate in private if they desire. So I don't think eleminating communications from country to country except via channel one is a viable solution. Heck, have the crap talked on channel one I wish would be taken private.
Currently the big flashing base gives a country ample warning to up & eliminate a NOE raid without the need to have spy information. All I am suggesting is give it a chance. Maybe the circle should be expanded or contracted. This could be adjusted.
NO friendly DOT DAR when Under Dar!!!!!!!!!!!
