I've been working on one for the last month or so. I do have to admit that the constant whine coming from Lazs about trinity does make it a bit discouraging.

NB, if trinity reset in a couple days like the rest of the maps, I don't think lazs or myself would complain a whole lot. Three weeks of it is slightly unreasonable.

Well hopefully you can see that some people would really like to see that map.

It would be much appreciated.

 Trinity was much appreciated by many.

WRat...

I realize that and told Lazs the first time that he complained about it that I would do my best to address the problems he has in the future. Obviously to no avail.

SirLoin...

I'm not really ready to go public with it yet. HT has approved the concept (which means I'm not wasting my time working on it :D). I will tell you what I am going to try to do.

The central area will be similar to tank town. Large city in the middle and each country starting with a gv field within driving distance of it. Instead of having secondary gv fields behind the primary ones, I plan on having airfields. I want to disable bombers and ordinance at these fields (have to talk to HT and make sure it's possible to do both).

For the rest of the map, I want to try stacked zones with a progressively greater distance between fields. The idea being to make field captures progressively harder.

The terrain I am using is real world based. Unfortunately, the real world average alt for this area is only about 650 feet (but, it has really great water :D). At this point, the base terrain is done (though I still have a lot of smoothing and coastline tweaking to do). Right now, I am trying to determine where to add some mountains (average alt will hopefully be 10k or less). When I finish with that and decide how I am going to lay the zones out, I will be ready to post a graphic.

A plea before it is finalized.

Without bombers or ord, the GV's are essentially safe from air attack. That is absolutely fine by me. Let the tread guys have their fun.

Please put a bloody moat around the Tank Town however, so that the GV's don't pork the Fighter Town aspect. I would also disable GV's at Fighter Town bases and keep all spawn points for GV's off the Fighter Town side of the moat.

Something for everyone, eh? Tank Town free of air attack, Fighter Town free of GV's and the world outside this Shangri-La a free for all that includes all features for the rest of the players.

Just my .02. Thanks, NB.

"Just curious, how do you figure that?"

Because the "misshun lemmings" and the "it's a war!" hamsters will more than likely all be in the shiney new mishun arena where they can score lots of valuble points and win stuff.

I've been doing this for five years now. I don't fly around in a virtual spit because I think I can win a war; or earn loads of points, I do it because I actualy enjoy the act of virtual air to air combat in of and by it's self; and strat, field capture, field porkage and assault by overwhelming numbers get in the way of that.

IMHO I just haven`t seen anything mentioned  that would interest the majority hardcore MA pilot planned for ToD (mission arena). I don`t think most of the MA players will get into the "jump through the hoop for a bone" format. I do believe it will interest the "gamers" and 2 weekers, which would be great for the MA. Not even gonna go into the "virtual spit" thingy. :D  I`ve been doing it a might longer than 5 years. I`m looking for to the new graphics engine for classic.

yeah jakal... and your whole line of thought is dependant on mine.  without me... you don't even have anything to say....  now that must really suck for you.

no baddy.... don't even know who you are... real drag that I effect you so much tho.   You may have noticed that more than a couple of people have "mentioned" that the fields were a "little" far apart and that there was no place for early war planes and... well... that... infinity is stale as hell and so is every big map that comes out... seems the bigger the map... the less there is for early war planes... doesn't that seem a little odd?  

like I said... don't know who you are but if you  are the guy responsible for infinity then you deserve to have somebody who flys furballs get under your skin.... heck... if you didn't have a guilty conscience it wouldn't bother ya.   If I was wrong it wouldn't bother ya.   If it slows you down that I comment .... then.... I don't know what to tell ya bud...  It sure can't be that yu spend so much time countering my whines..  Maybe you could hire ol "one track jakal" for that chore and free up some of your time?
