Title: Option to Spawn with GV engine ON or OFF
Post by: Mano on February 16, 2012, 01:08:53 PM
While in the hangar selecting your ords.............you could have the option to check the box ---> Engine "ON" or "OFF"

Remote spawn campers would have a new challenge.........THE SILENT SPAWNER.......... or  SS for short.

SS'ers would be able to knock out 2 or 3 spawn campers when they up. If they are lucky enough to spawn behind a hedge row
or berm they are set for a good tank fight.

The reduced icon ranges has diminished the bombing of GV's and the addition of the Storch has enhanced GV'ing by
adding spotters to the sky that don't carry ords. We see allot more perked tanks away from the pavement now. WTG HiTech !

SS'ers would definitely add another element to tanking. It is one thing to defend a base so the enemy does not capture it, but spawn
camping just to rack up kills gets boring after awhile. It is the tank battles that last that really draws the crowd of GV'ers.
There is less incentive to go drop the other guys VH if SS'er can up get a good tank battle going.

Most of the GV'ers really don't care about conquering the map and the Mud Movers can continue on with their conquest. Both groups
are happy.

Another good feature that should be added to the game is check the box in the hangar.....  ---> Auto or Manual Transmission.

The option would be nice, many try spawning in with the engines off - you do catch a sleeping camper every now and then.

However if the PC is fast enough and internet connection, trying to shut it off when you spawn in doesn't work.

I thought there was an option in the clipboard where you have your stall limiter, stall horn and other settings for engine off spawning...

Even when you spawn in and shut your engine off immediately it still plays the shut down sound.

I guess a lot of people don't hear the shutdown noise then.   :devil

Straight from the "mouth" of Hitech, the above works.

Yeah, it must.  There isn't the option in the clipboard like I thought, but I've been camping enough to know you can spawn and not make noise.  :old:

I don't know, maybe something got changed in one of the updates or it's a bug, because I here the GV shutdown sound when someone spawns in and kills there engine.

Then they aren't shutting down soon enough.
