Title: HTC Staff
Post by: chaser on November 21, 2011, 10:43:50 PM
Please return some bases to the Bishops in Tank Town on the current LW map. There's some of us who like to fight but The rooks always insist on taking it over. I defended as long as I could and did everything in my power to stop it. I tried porking from a CV and all that good stuff. But they bombed the hangers down and took our last base in Tank Town a few minutes ago.

It's not fair to those of us who like to fight. We shouldn't have to be kicked out because there's a hoard that gets a kick out of ruining the whole island. So please give us some bases back. For those of us who actually like to fight.

Have you ever tried to do it? It would take the bush and the knights combined to get a base back. The flight is to far and there's just not enough people interested in doing it. I'll admit its a minority that enjoy fighting in there and the majority of the rooks seem to think its fun to take the whole island. It's just not right for those of us who enjoy it to be thrown aside by something we can't stop.

aggravates the crap outta me when that is done....but all sides do it, rooks just did it this time,  there are other fights......find one.....or  switch sides and fight the hourds...unless of course you switched within 12 hours...then just log....

coming here and asking for the bases back is definitely NOT what you should do.

hate to say it but Bish have no bases there to go defend or take back and Knights have only a few bases to up from to fight and defend the Rooks from not taking that whole island over. so In all reality it is only a 2 country fight there with Rooks in the Lead

Gather a couple of your buddies and go the the DA, custom arena, or somewhere else on the map... Begging to have a little spot on the map should drive you to actually try to get a base...

You Bish need to learn a lesson here "Start Defending the bases" TG took 3 of those bases including the Air Base with 6 guys while over 15 Bish were rolling into TT with no thought of stopping us only one who did try was Midway. Granted we let the Bish have that 1 GV base as a sign of good faith hoping you guys would get up and take something back.

I was trying. Kinda hard when its 5 vs 40 though with y'all constantly egging us.

I just really don't understand it I guess. There's bases all over the map for you guys to take but y'all insist on taking the 1 place that has the best GV battles.

If they can take them and we can't defend them, so be it.  If enough tankers want their TT base back, then get in a heavy fighter mission one time with overwhelming numbers, fly a couple sectors, shut the TT air base down and take it back.   Then defend it. :salute

They do it to piss you off.  Not "you" as a country, but you personally  :noid

Getting bombed?  Pork ords.

Don't want to have your base taken?  Pork troops.  Don't engage fighters or bombers.  Grab an uber-fast late war ride and go goon hunting.  Stay fast and out of reach.

All I have seen so far are excuses:
-getting egged
-getting horded
-the only good fight has been taken away from you
- nobody will help you
-  :cry

What you have not offered is a depection/description of what you tried to do to remedy the situation, only that what you "tried" didn't work...

  2 guys with mediocre skill, in mediocre attack planes can take out ords and troops on most bases in ~ two passes, if the attack is well-planned.  It may even draw some of the attackers away from the field you are attempting to defend.   :O

Yes, taking all the TT bases really sucks and really just represents a bunch of douchbaggery at its finest, but...

Coming to the BBS to complain about it being "not fair" will NOT get your base back.  I can guarantee you that with 100% certainty.   :aok

From what base? The rook already had the air base when I got on. The next closest base was over 2 sectors away. Later there was a cv there but I couldn't get any help and I was able to takes the ords down at 1 air base but less than 20 minutes later and before I got to 106 to take its ords down, the ords were already back up at 85. While I was trying to pro the v-base of supplies they took 88.

Dear HTC,

Make me the #1 person in all categories this tour simply because I don't have time to earn it myself.  I also need 5,000 perks in all categories because of disco's and flying into the occasional ground.  It's not fair that I have to play x amount of time to be number one and it's also not fair that I lost my perks because of that stupid ground or disco's.

Thank You,

THIS is the truth. There are a certain number of people who, no matter what, will gain satisfaction in anything that ruins or reduces the enjoyment in gameplay for others, as opposed to fighting. It is what it is, and will not change. People want to capture all of TT just to have it, and to end the fight that goes on there.


It's like buff drivers who want to fly for 30-45 minutes to bomb HQ just to take down that country's dar. It's a legitimate target, if it weren't it wouldn't be destructible. The reality is though that to desire to do so is kinda sad and pathetic, if done for any other reason than to provoke a fight. But fact is if they were looking for a fight they wouldn't be at 30K.........

so respond to the azzhats taking all of TT with a horde is what you're saying? D-baggery begats more D-baggery...... vMIDWAY  :lol going back to the roots, eh...

And don't say "we're just encouraging a fight by taking the bases, it forces people to come fight to take them back!" Truth is, more times than not once 1 country has all of TT island that part of the map is dead until the reset and a new maps rotates in. Been there, seen it.

People have a right to capture any available base they choose, TT shouldn't be any different.  People should stop whining on the forums about bases being captured and instead actually do something in-game about it like defend the base.

Please return some bases to the Bishops in Tank Town on the current LW map. There's some of us who like to fight but The rooks always insist on taking it over. I defended as long as I could and did everything in my power to stop it. I tried porking from a CV and all that good stuff. But they bombed the hangers down and took our last base in Tank Town a few minutes ago.

It's not fair to those of us who like to fight. We shouldn't have to be kicked out because there's a hoard that gets a kick out of ruining the whole island. So please give us some bases back. For those of us who actually like to fight.

Nothing was done in the past for the entire Knight Republic, continue holding your breath over a couple bases on one tiny island.   :D

Well I see someone finally got some bases in there. Now for something that may surprise you.

You see this thread wasn't something randomly thrown around out of anger. It was a very well thought out process. I've seen in the past how everyone insists on getting a mission together to take it back. I can't get that many people together. But instead of running a failure of a mission I waited. Slash beat me to it, but I was going to say the same thing he did and tell y'all to run a mission. Because so many of you like to stroke your ego and show your supremacy to everyone I knew someone would do it. Low and behold I was right. The bish are back in TT and I didn'tt have to do anything but provoke some ego obsessed people into doing it for me. Looks like I win.

Well I see someone finally got some bases in there. Now for something that may surprise you.

You see this thread wasn't something randomly thrown around out of anger. It was a very well thought out process. I've seen in the past how everyone insists on getting a mission together to take it back. I can't get that many people together. But instead of running a failure of a mission I waited. Slash beat me to it, but I was going to say the same thing he did and tell y'all to run a mission. Because so many of you like to stroke your ego and show your supremacy to everyone I knew someone would do it. Low and behold I was right. The bish are back in TT and I didn'tt have to do anything but provoke some ego obsessed people into doing it for me. Looks like I win.

And now we know why you can't. Good luck with that "crying wolf" thing  :aok

For some reason, this brought up a distant memory.

~2 years ago...
  After looking over the map, our squad realized there weren't any air battles occurring possibly due to the unusual increase in distance between opposing airfields.  So, we decided to capture an airfield deep within an enemy's territory to create a furball.  After a failed attempt, we decided that perhaps a ground assault would be best, but it would require us capturing a nearby vbase.  

  So off we went to capture the vbase.  We went in with medium bombers to take out the hangers and enemy gvs.  After nearly an hour of fighting, the base was finally secure for a goon to come in.  Seconds before troops were in the map room P38s came rushing in and foiled our plans.  So now we came back in fighters only to have the P38s fly home early partly due to the amount of time they needed to get home and partly due to the amount of time it took us dead pilots to return to the fight.  After that event, we decided to divide our forces, half would continue to bomb GVs and vehicle hangers, while the other half would provide air cover against those P38s.  By now more enemy gv'ers were defending this base.  With less bombs coming in due to us having to divide our forces, we were losing the battle with every passing minute.  The battle for the vbase was always foiled as either a 38 or a gv would still be alive to take out the troops.  Each of us taking turns at piloting the goony bird while the others were having fun fighting.

  With frustration levels high, we took a step back to reassess the situation.  It was then that we realized, "hey, we finally got ourselves a fight in the air!", the very idea we were after from the beginning!  So we all strapped ourselves in fighters, abandoning the capture of the vbase, to pursue our goal of having fun dogfighting others.  Once we arrive to the area of the fight, I get a PM from one of the P38 pilots thanking us for the fight and a <S>, and that they were off to bed.   Argh!

<S> Guppy & Soulyss

Taking a tanktown base requires a few buffs upped from 2 sectors away.

Apparently any mission over 22 minutes is considered "too much" so they just feed the spawn campers a few more tanks.

Every year... a few times a year the same question is asked in different words.

How many clicks does it take to put a red square on a Vbase?


How bout this. No red square but time to take base is shortened or a V hanger is hardened or a manned ack is indestructible

Bottom line is- and this has been discussed before here- TT Island bases should be made uncapturable until they're needed for one side to win the map.

Are you the reason that Piniatas now have a rip chord to release the candy instead of the old fashioned way that is now considered too violent for children?

Ouch! Some parents teach their kids, mistakenly, that life is supposed to be fair. Some will, by their actions, even teach that if it's not fair, It's someones fault. Best to learn no while you're young...It is what it is.  :old:
