im thinking of starting something in the AVA but i need some feedback. i want to start something where players have to fly past 5 or 6 enemy bases. there will be enemy pilot at each base. the idea is that you have to make it past all the bases. you must engage each pilot at each base!
im just trying to find out if theres any interest in something like this. the runners would only have 1 life, the defenders at each base would be able to re-up no matter what. if the runner gets low on fuel or ammo, he can hit a base and rearm as necessary, then off to the next base.
id like squads doing the defending at the bases. might be good for a squad night or something like that. defenders hopfully would be a mixed bag of experience, ie new players and vets alike.
if you're interested in something like this, let me know on here. or just give me your thoughts on it. I'm sure theres no shortage of opinions in here! :)
thanks

Did you happen to get this idea from Gladiators!
The idea is a bad one.

Yes! Send all the Sp13z and collaborators (side switchers) to the gauntlet! Then shave their heads if they don't make it. :x :x :x :x :x
Gauntlet, gauntlet, gauntlet!
:devil

And how much interest is there for players to wait at airfields for some one to come flying by?

Dang, In the office before 0800hrs on a Monday; I'm impressed. A little grumpy (imho) as you are not giving this idea the serious attention it needs. I mean, you did not even ridicule it or spell any words wrong. Come on HT, have another crack at it. :D

I give it a so-so on the idea scale. I compliment you however on trying to be innovative.

See when I see the gauntlet I picture this:
Tank fire ------> 3 jeeps zipping down a valley <------ Tank fire
All AP rounds, at least 10 tanks per side.
THAT's a gauntlet :)

if the guys comin in only have one life, you're gonna end up with pickers that'll never come down and fight.

not if i get them to set hurricane force winds at 10k for a little while. problem is hitech is right about the waiting around. i have to figure that out.

If it was set up right with the "I'm an uber ace toon pile-it" mentality around here...it wouldn't take long for the idea of bragging rights to catch on...either being the one who shot down the hotshot or the hotshot who made it in record time...the airfields would have to be pretty close together and their would have to be an alt cap to start with.

the Uterus map thats in the AVA right now, would be perfect for it!
to make it fair, everyone would have to take the same plane too.
-
I'll be, ahmm... waiting at the last airfield. ;)
