Title: GV flips when spawning into hedgerows
Post by: Scratchman on May 04, 2009, 06:41:20 AM
This is just a nuisance, (since it is random where GV's spawn into) but is there something that can be done when your spawned your GV into a hedgerow with a tank or whirble, and your imediately flipped over. If your spawning in a perked tank you lose the up and points. The same thing happens if you park on a VBase and your spot matches the resupply convoy. They hit you from behind or side while parked and your immediately flipped. Thanks.

Only once have I not landed on my tracks when spawned onto a hedge or tree.  I think the key is not to move your stick or start engine or shift gear untill the GV stops tumbling.

As for being ran over by trucks.....move.

Maps are supposed to be designed with GV spawns sitting in empty territory, free of hedges and trees. I've never had it happen since around the time we were forced to switch to AHII, though.

I never start engine or touch stick until I get a full picture, ( i.e. complete spawn ), but still it happens not everytime mind you but more than half the time. And as far as just moving with convoys coming in, asimple matter if you know when they are coming. But as of late they don't even remain on same path's to avoid parking in their paths. But thanks for the imput, I was wondering if I was the only one experiencing this.

I like the, spawn in on top of a 10k shearface mountain top! No way to get down but tumble! LOL Good thing is you can shell a vbase without worrisome tanks shooting back.

The additions of the hedges (esp. at spawns) has been one of my favorite features.  I'll take a few flips for the fun of trying to maneuver & find folks in the hedges. :aok

Can we have truck sounds for the trucks so we can HEAR them coming?
