Title: Troops dissappearing
Post by: jaxxo on October 12, 2004, 10:16:21 AM
Twice on 2 different maps i have seen troops immediately dissapear after leaving the m3 with no apparent fire on them and no field ack or gv's in the area. Anyone else seen this phenomenon?

Twice this week,

2 LVT's in to a town, troops out , all dissapeared,

went back grabbed another LVT, same thing happened.

Nothing about, no acks, no GV's, couldn't see field from town so no manned acks, ditched LVT no kill awarded to anyone,

very strange indeed

i think its a map glitch, appears to be not only affecting troops.

yestuday upped lanc's 4 times because one of my drones kept going backwards on the runway then would lift off the deck, backwards, do a flip and explode in the air, mind you i was watching this with my manifold at 0.

wish i filmed it.

last time this map was up there was a gv base on a small island where you could up planes, no runway, and the funny thing was we had two cv's attacking us, and there was no visual hangers, just a town.

it was a awsome furball, those poor bastards must have been pissed all to  hell that they couldnt find the vh.:rofl

in the end we sank both cv's and got a ton of kills:D

sounds like the "bug" with the trinity map early on.

in the NW country the base near HQ the town was actually in the water, so troops would drown so to say.

was not possible to capture the base IIRC>

guys some towns are close enough to fields that the 88mm guns  can kill troops. you wont see it shoot but ur troops will die.

i had troops die on ded town 1 day, we had 2nd lvt, i put my
LVT between  field and maproom, and his troops made it fine.
