Title: orange arena map
Post by: chrish483 on March 02, 2008, 02:16:04 AM
that map has alot of little bugs in it:D   mainly i found it in the CV groups. one CV had 2 battleships and another had only 1 ship and that was the carrer.
i noticed when id go to the hanger to pick a gun to man and find an odd number of ships there,  got plunty of screen shots.

anyone else find anything odd on this map

2 battleships would be fascinating indeed, we've never even had one in any CV group in AH before.

The bugs forum might be a better place for this, and it also might help to include screenshots.

Not a bug. This map has allways had little weird things, like the ports being airfields. It's normal.

Chris to prevent yourself from looking like a complete moron in the future refer to the CA class escort ships as "Cleveland."
Our tidy albeit flawed little carrier groups lack a true BB class ship.
I would give my left arm for an ISE (CV) in this game.

well you told skyctpn there:D

i agree with sunfan there but you would think the bugs would have been removed since the last time this map was up.

ok here is CV187 with 2 battle ships in the group.  ok cruisers or what ever you want to call them.

In the orange arena there was an indestructable LVTA2 we dropped bombs shot it with a tiger and he never died. The guy who was in the LVT told us on 200 he didnt know what was wrong. I have the whole video of it but i dont know how to upload it :cry

dont bother zoozoo, send it in to hitech m8, they might be able to figure out what the problem is.........had that with a 110 once, was a known bug.

zoozoo i dont think a indestructable GV is really an odd thing here as weve seen this on all maps,   and ive been in that spot to as the indestructable GV.
on another note here
this post doesnt realy need to be in the bug section as its a map related stuff and i wasnt posting to HTC about a certin bug or what not.  just pointing out or commenting on some things ive seen on this map not a real big deal:D

Sit down lean back relax.  There is nothing wrong with the Task groups.  It is an interesting feature and that's all it is.  CV's nearest the centre isle don't have CRUISERS where as the cv's from the far corners have 2.

Ports near centre isle are ports all other ports are actually small airfields without an actual port.

Battle ships and cruisers are defined by the size of their guns if I remember correctly.  Anything over 11 inches is a battle ship.

They are Baltimore class cruisers. Look at first page pictures. The map was originally designed with many bases copying bases in the Pacific. I think Port 131 was Pearl Harbor and had 7 battleships lined up on battleship row.
They were taken out when AH redesigned the maps. Lynx was right about fleet sizes.

i loved the old version of this map

you had midway island wake island pearl harbour and all things like that,it was a great work of art by fester i believe.

As for the task groups its nice to have a change be nice to see something along the lines of a invasion fleet on some maps.

4 or 5 cruisers lots of destroyers a couple of carriers and plenty of troops ships,now that would be some fun to attack.

 YUP,been there myself..got 20 kills before I figured out that I should of already been dead by then..And then it was a bit of an odd feeling not being killed,so I went to leave,,got tracked and bailed out..
  The base got taken while I was on it,and I calleed and spoke with pyro the next day,and he did say it was something they were looking at..

And boy did people let it fly with the C word and assumptions..I spent like 15 min in PM afterwards saying I have no idea what just happened,to many different people...

  IF it happens to you,or you see it happening,FILM IT,and SEND IT IN,let the guys at HT look at it,and see whats going on,then they can fix it..

The map was designed that way and it's always been that way.  It's a feature, not a bug.

It's crazy how the Towns are so close to the airfileds on this map. If you wanna get troops in safely you almost always have to deack the side closest to the town.

I still like the map! :aok
