Gents,
Just an idea to consider for Tank Town.
Over the years there have been howls of anger as bombers roll in to end the fun that GVers are having at Tank Town. Making the area hard to access by mountain has only a limited effect. I submit the following two ideas for consideration.
A. Make the V-Bases supporting Tank Town, "un-capture able". We have done it for a few bases in the country core to prevent a side's elimination from the map. Do the same for the V-Bases for Tank Town.
B. Emplace multiple "Puffy ACK" sites for each country around Tank Town. This will not end bombing at Tank Town but will add an additional deterrence to those who just want to interrupt the fun for the GVers.

Oddball: [groans] Don't hit me with them negative waves so early in the morning. Think the bridge will be there and it will be there. It's a mother, beautiful bridge, and it's gonna be there. Ok?

It's been asked for a hundred times and looks like it will never change. The main reason I see is that it is FUN for some people to bomb GVs.
Much the same as saying lets make bombers bullet prove while the pilot is in the gun site, after all he is just trying to have fun bombing stuff. No point in letting someone else shoot him down while he's having fun right?
-
Will airfields also get an AI AT gun perimeter as an additional deterrence to those who just want to interrupt the fun of the pilots? :old:

Sorry, already late afternoon here :P

+1 on the OP, but unfortunately Fugitive is probably right.

In addition to this let's add automated 17 lbers/88's around all types of fields, walking smart mines at spawn points, a force field around all airplanes/vehicles, and a dot command to ask permission of any one with a red icon if it is ok to attack them. :D

Because of this suggestion I am going to be more active in bombing GVwhiners
-
I will make it a point to spoil your fun if you wear a red icon. Now that I know gv ers don't want us pilots to engage, I will make sure to try. Thanks for the heads up. Muwahaha.

Surely someone could design an offline mission for these guys, no planes just an endlessly spawning tank for them to shoot :rofl you could also program the AI to PM the player with increasingly abusive messages, then when they are done camping the message WTG "insert id here" endlessly scrolls in the message bar. :rock

GV's? :headscratch:

Tank Town must be captured at all cost!

oooh goody...looks like I will have a great place to practice my flakpanzering

Seems like just getting rid of Rooks would solve the problem.
One of them yesterday involved in the taking of Knight TT bases, used to be a Knight, but come to think of it... :noid :noid
guess he's adjusted rather quickly

It's dickwads like you guys that cause these kinds of threads to be posted. You really have serious mental issues if your only intention in a game is to grief people.

I understand the ground dudes don't like being egged but what I don't understand is what is the point of just shooting each other over and over without having a enemy base to capture? Isn't the base the prize for winning the battle?
Making bases uncapturable isn't going to stop guys from bombing GVs. Fighter support, Whirbels, field guns, Ostis and 88s will stop the bomb****s. Use the resources already provided and leave people alone to play their own game.

There's a difference in killing and griefing.

I find little to no joy in base taking unless taking that base opens up a spawn battle on the other side. I'd much rather run around in my M18 shooting panthers and KT's!

So basically you guys want to furball in tanks ............okay I'll buy that. Carry on :)

What's the point of having V bases? A bases have gv spawn points. Turn all the V bases into A bases, it will be less wasted airspace and the GV drivers will still have the same spawn points.

4 hangars is what I would imagine.

No need for a seperate hangar for vehicles if you get rid of V bases.

dude we spend an insane amount of time playing a game. of course we have serous mental issues. I have certified letters from 3 different doctors to prove it.
that reminds me, what are the blue pills for again?

Dickwads, eh? Just because someone wants to bomb tanks?
Some live for a2a kills, some for g2g kills, some for g2a kills and some for a2g kills.
Me? I prefer tequila...

No, let's not.

Off topic, but IMHO the other reason for VBases is that it provides some separation between the GVs and the AC. If you have only air bases, the side with the base has instant ground support, precluding any sort of interesting GV fights.

I love bombing gvers especially at v85. Set of lancs will fix the spawn campers:)

Air superiority. If you don't have it your surface forces will suffer at the hands of the side that does have it. War is hell.

There is a place you can do this and not get in the way of the win the war types and be free of things like score, eny, etc. it is call.............
