Title: CV Waypoint Nonsense
Post by: Red Tail 444 on July 12, 2007, 10:32:41 PM: Maybe I'm too old for this game.

I'm getting pretty darned sick and tired of seeing these (kids) making phallic symbols and curse words with the CV waypoints. I saw two people in particular take command of the CV, make art, then release. I wont post their names here, but if it's not a total waste of time, I'd be happy to report them.

Post by: Xasthur on July 13, 2007, 03:33:10 AM: I'll assume that dweeb kids do this sort thing.... they probably suck too...

Just take command and stay in command.

It's no different to when you set a course for the CV only to have some kid send it directly into the path off an enemy CV that is sitting just off the base that it was just used to take.

Take control and stay in control.

(don't be a knob-end about it though, if you're going to do it, pay attention to the CV's progress)

Post by: Ghosth on July 13, 2007, 06:39:04 AM: You know I love to see some squeeker start doing this in the TA.

I wait till he's spent half an hour on some piece of CV art thats almost finished.
Then set a single waypoint or hit the clear button so that it wipes it out.

Ohhh the moans, the groans the gnashing of teeth.

Post by: lagger86 on July 13, 2007, 07:43:48 AM: who cares, I just hope they find a CV somebody tried to hide and write "we are pathetic because we are hiding this cv" the sad thing is that they will just draw weenies.

P.S. if anyone dares to rip me for my poor punctuation I will hunt them down and make them watch me type.

Post by: BaldEagl on July 13, 2007, 09:11:36 AM: I think they should limit you to something like 3 waypoints. That would end this an there's rarely a real need for more.
Title: CV Waypoint Nonsense
Post by: Meatwad on July 13, 2007, 09:15:19 AM: I like!!

Remends me of when someone used about 30 waypoints to make the cv do a SLOW turn.

I cut it down to 2 :)

_iII__
---> \___/ -----------------------------------------> {BOOM!} =SB

followed by:

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! We lost our CV! You guys suck! Why didn't you defend it!
Title: CV Waypoint Nonsense
Post by: Meatwad on July 13, 2007, 12:06:51 PM: Or driving it 5 feet from where the PT's spawn at.

Torps---------------------------BOOM (cv sunk)

One group blames the ship gunners for not killing the PT's
Another says its the drivers fault for putting it there
Any aircraft in the air is at fault for not spotting torps/PT's

Then you will always have one goober in the 5" trying to shoot the torps in the water, then angrily on vox squeaking the CV was sunk and everyone sucks

:rofl

Oh yes there is a need, evasive maneuvers when buff drivers like me come along over the TG to sink the CV. It's easy enough now... prevent the ability to try evasive zig zags, and it all becomes just wayyy too easy.

I agree with the above: if folks with more rank would take the CV and hold onto it, you'd see less of this. As to it happening in war arenas.... heck, it's squeaker season and the little varmits are already getting bored as actually learning to play the game is too hard.

Post by: stockli on July 14, 2007, 03:14:03 AM: Im 30 years old and wrote a curse in CV waypoints to the clown that kept sending the CV to its impending doom.

Maybe Im too young too, or Francis needs to lighten up.
Title: CV Waypoint Nonsense
Post by: BaldEagl on July 14, 2007, 03:21:40 AM: I just think it's juvenile and annoying.

Fortunately I'm usually ranked high enough that every time I see it I just hit clear points, add points, OK without setting any new waypoints or taking control of the CV, then, I wait 'til they spend all their time doing it over then I do it agian. Some of these people just don't want to give up though.

Post by: Latrobe on July 14, 2007, 06:34:20 AM: The one waypoint artwork that i really enjoyed was an arrow someone drew with the points pointing to an enmy port.

Whenever we win a war i write "WE WON" with the cv sometimes :)
