Title: Stole the other sides CV they cheat to recover
Post by: Ultimate on March 14, 2011, 07:52:25 AM
Alright so yesterday in the Pizza map, we had taken P69 for a litle while and had captured C70, when we saw that P69 was a loss we quickly dispatched the CV away from the port.. about an hour later whent he CV got to its destination some guy from the Knights believe he was from the 49th (rank was 202) He took control of that CV and put it in a straight line. Once he pulled that off he jumped back over to the knights and in the next hour or so dar bar was closing on the CV...

I PM'ed the guy calling him a cheater and to learn how to play right... He continued to say blah blah blah you hijacked our CV this and that, your hiding it from us so we cant use it... I mean seriously if the opportunity had shown it self to them they would have done the same. Its a strategy...

Anyways point is why is it people just cant play fair..

It seems you were paying a lot of attention to this situation, for at least 1+ hours. If this so called cheater found the boat more than an hour later he still had to search for it, you could have defended it, you could have brought attention to it, you could have done something!!!


Everytime I log on there are CVs being hidden on all sides it really is very silly.

 Actually 3 nights ago there was a CV being hid waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaay behind the enemy very close to rear bases. I tried to get it into some kind of fight, calling on "country" to up and lets take a base and start a furball with the boat. Not a single taker joined, not one so I took the base alone and not a single defender upped to defend it. It was possibly the most boring night in AH yet, everytime I changed country I made the wrong choice and ended up on the side with "green hordy"  :mad:

I say make it so we can change country at will and allow us thru payment of perks per kill to disable killshooter, then you could change country, pay a few perkies and go kill this waskily wabbit :aok


Then I could feast like a king on the following 200 tyrades!!  It would be epic indeed  :aok

Or how about IF a boat does not come within 1 sector of an enemy field within say 2 hours it is automatically destroyed and respawns at the field of origin! :aok

Hitech said this violates the fairness of the game. But-t-t-t Hitech, our manufacturers are on strike and won't make any more cv's.

I have actually done this in the past. After Hitech's post I quit. It's an old problem.

Last night I saw Knights using cv37 even though p36 had been captured. I applauded that.

It really doesn't matter if anyone could up and defend the CV at all, whoever switched and took control of the CV so the other side could find it and sink it easier is the one that is wrong.

Use it or lose it! hehe. Well hiding a cv is perfectly legitimate according to HiTech. My main argument is that in War we would be building more cvs. The other sides argument is spies can't be shot. Both valid in MHO. So what's the answer. I really don't know. I say keep bombing the cv so it can't be moved. No one does that or sometimes it just becomes impossible.

They should just make CVs static like they were in AW or have them cruise on predetermined routes and remove the ability to take command of the CVs.

Solves the problem of the basement dwelling arm chair admirals from hiding the CV and tools switch countries to take control to sink it.

I was thinking the same, but I didn't post because I figured it would make it even easier to sink a CV since they will be on preset routes and not be able to make defensive maneuvers.  What that would require is heavy defense (which could either mean one heck of a fight, or an easily sunk CV)

Post by: Yeager on March 15, 2011, 12:34:05 AM
It is a definite asset to be able to position the CVs.  It is an unfortunate consequence that some people feel the need to hide them to "protect" them.

Not sure if there is much that can be done though.  Making them follow predetermined paths definitely rids us of the
self-righteous strategic hiders but doing so takes away a very nice player controlable feature to the game.

Someone ought to be able to think up some compromise?

How about letting the map makers put in special "no swim" zones.  It would look goofy to fill in every bit of water in conflict be land so maybe that would work?  Maybe have the map show an X through those zones.  It doesn't affect me either way, just throwing ideas out there.  Sorry if it has been suggested hard to read lots on this phone. :)

Post by: Rob52240 on March 15, 2011, 12:22:05 PM
My advice:

Just expect someone to change sides to find a hidden Carrier.  Keep in mind that whoever sets off to kill it is going to have a long flight and may not be able to sink it.

Also if you have a carrier mission posted, expect some lone wolf one man Carrier attack force to launch 5 minutes before your mission.

Carrier issues used to drive me nearly off the edge but I've learned to accept that it's just a game and the other players all want to win too.
