NO.....

It will be hard to find a fight when there are only 10 people on or to find someone your dueling.

Besides, I wouldn't be able to track people of interest.

Is "meh" an option?


I could care less what the pilots at Dweeb Lake think/feel/say/do.

The Dueling Arena is there for pilots to Duel.

The opinion of pilots that are not using the Arena as it was intended matter not to me.

Reduce the radar update frequency maybe, but not remove it altogether.

I can't figure out from your post if AYE is yes enable it or AYE is yes disable it.  Same for NAY. 

Also, I don't think you have a 'snowball's chance' in getting anything changed even if everyone wanted AYE or NAY or whatever...

No, never, absolutely not.

The point is to furball, not toolshed, and radar down to the deck facilitates that goal.  No hiding.

Just to be clear once for all.... YOU CAN'T DESTROY THE RADAR IN DA. You can bomb it, make it burn, but the "red" dots will be still visible. DA isn't MA. If you don't belive me, try this : join for ex. Bishop go and bomb Rook radar, then switch to Rook and check if you can see any enemy. Belive me you will be surprised.

We all know this already, no surpise.  In fact, we like that radar cannot be taken away.

Unless the new version (2.14)  has changed it, you are wrong. You can take away all dar for a side, just like you can in MA.

Actually I did it myself about 3 months ago to test it. It worked, much to my own surprise.

If I had my way, I'd nuke the whole DA arena every morning as I drank my coffee. That should take care of your radar problem.(http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk121/TheAmish/Good_night.gif)

Hey before you guys lock this thread, could you please shed some light on the radar issue in the DA?  Is this just the result of a few kids going crazy with bombs, or has it been disabled by HTC on purpose?

If it's the former, could you reset the radar please?  If it's the latter...  Where's that bribe link?  Because this is not making things easier (the group of us that duel have no "check 6" option due to killshooter turned on, so voice blips on the radar are the next best thing...  No radar, no voice blips...  It's not cool).

Thanks,

The former, though I wouldn't necessarily call it "going crazy" when someone bombs a target located in an area explicitly named "bombers run"

Shorter regeneration time, anyone?  I could deal with radar off for 30 seconds if I had to.
Title: Re: disable radar in DA petition
Post by: Strip on August 21, 2009, 12:34:07 AM
I never understood why they didnt do that....

Set DowntimeMultiplier to .001

At most HQ would stay down for 40 seconds, no reason for anything to stay destroyed long.

It gets so bad that some come in at 15k, deack the fields and start vulching. Usually its a Tempest,
190, or F4U that even if you do run them down it takes a while. You either fight to get of the field
or spend too much time chasing dweebs.

Turn ack hardness up too while your at it....
