Title: Town ack visability
Post by: Max on April 22, 2013, 06:17:21 PM

OK...I'm over 60, don't have the best eyesight and my GPU dates to 2008. I know _about_ where the town acks are placed but by the time I ID them for certain, they're firing. Not so bad when you're de-acking with 3+ squaddies but a solo mission usually leaves me blown to bits. Any chance they could be made more visually prominent before they attack?

Any hints as to in-game graphics settings that would provide more warning would also be appreciated  :aok

Approaching from the air, or ground? Just take a second and zoom in for the ID.

Air. I don't have a prayers chance in hell in a GV without getting tracked, turreted or killed.

I printed out one of Pand's town maps, hilited the acks and will commit them to memory  :old:

remove ack from town altogether..

Like the way it was for the week or so when the new town layout came out.

 Next time online.....ask around. There are maps available that show where the 8 guns are.......someone might be able to e mail it to you.

Also check out the maps at the AH Trainers link from the main HiTech web page.

used MSPaint to make this for myself. I use a real clipboard with various maps printed out.
