Tiger's role with new patch
« on: March 13, 2003, 02:41:33 PM »
It seems to me that unless someone was sure that an enemy field would soon be captured, they wouldn't attack it with a Tiger because they can no longer land there.  Anyone that rolls a Tiger to an enemy field that is never taken will lose their perks unless they want to spend 2 hours driving home.

I was at a field last night and there were multiple Tiger drivers begging for the field to be taken so they could land and not lose perks.  I find myself rethinking about spawning a Tiger to an enemy field because of this.  Anyone else?

(those with 2 million vehicle perks need not respond) :)

Perks are ment to be spent. I'll continue to spawn a tiger to an enemy base since I still have over 3k in Vehicle perkies....when they run out I'll get some more.

Time to drop a recovery spawnpoint by c47 giving it an extra role.

Something needs to be done for vehicles.  They could at least mark an area somehow (flags...) around the spawn points that we can travel back to in order to "land."

what frost said, really need a way get back safe after you attack a enemy base, a reverse spawn point or dot command.

It is marked, click the little vehicle icon on the map, then zoom in full around the spawn area. It shows exactly where it is...

Last night I got a second successful landing at an enemy base...  This time it was at an enemy Vbase  (196 i think)  I had travelled there, killed the opposition and the VH (2x) and when no troops were inbound and my ammo supply was 0.  I reluctantly exited...  Only to get a successful landing +)

It seems to me that undamaged vehicles land successfully anywhere..............

I have had a few "Successful landing" messages when I spawn a GV to a base. Right after I spawn I changed my mind and got something else, only to have landed successfully. Pretty nice, eh?
