Please stop shore batteries from flashing as early warning like towns and fields and ships.

yeah some folks need ever manageable way to sneak a base with out an actual chance of real combat. going the long way around as to not flash the SB makes absolutely to much since. why don't we hide the "prepped" title in the CB so no one knows it wf then no one will up and combat will drop to 00000000000000000000000000000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If HTC wanted to remove all sneakiness from the game, he would have started way back in AH1.

Flipth your ankle humping flatters me. However your assumption about why I made this request is wholly incorrect and shows just how tiny your brain is. It's ok the the Anti-Bored have low expectations anyway. Keep up the hard work, you will make a varsity squad some day. RTB in Fear for now. :aok

just curious, Why? Other than trying to sneak into a base I cant see any other reason to stop the flashing. As to why it does flash, Im thinking it mimics the spotters there that would hunt and then range find for the guns.

Bombers normally avoid radar circles on long bombers missions. Some of the newer maps placements of shore batteries force bombers off map to maintain that same non visibilty (flashing) when flying to strats. Encouraging bombers to go off the map to avoid detection at altitude is not a good thing. Makes them harder to find and it is not a behavior to be encouraged.

As a bomber nut, myself. The flashing towns, SB's, etc., don't really bother me. I squeeze between circles as well, but at the same time I don't want to be TOTALLY undetectable. The darbar is a clue, and the flashing SB is another teaser for someone to come up and get me and/or our bomb group.

and the direct attack on the names and squad degradation shows the size of yours. there is all ready to much sneaking and slithering going on in this game. we need things to encourage fighting. I get the chance to fly more than most in here as I am tied to a desk all day with not much to do but answer the phone. it amazes me at the amount of people that flat out refuse to engage in a 1v1 fight. it amazes me at the time a bomber will take to fly to a strat to avoid combat. how when over whelmed the slightest bit every one jumps in gvs and field guns or just simply leaves and go to another field. I am by no means a good fighter but I think I have progressed well in the last 6 months, but I run from no one and no fight and when I have a turn fight with one or two planes (I know I am gonna loose) and my objective right now is to at least get shots on both I enjoy that very much.
I think there needs to be more that points out cons and sneaks. also some way to channel the fights better. there should be arrows pointing to where the cons are and fight bases in a order of logistic purposes. also there should be a base take cap ie you take 2 bases that belong to team x you have to take 2 bases that belong to y before you can advance on the next x team bases. the horde mentality is over whelming in here for all sides and is devastating the game play. a perfect example is weekend play, this is the third weekend in a row where you log on and theres not a single knight and rook fight. its hard to deal with numbers like that and ruins game play for a lot of guys that only get to play on the weekend.
again the flashing shore battery should be the least of our worries when hunting bombers, if you want to kill the bombers head to the strat with drop tanks and hover over it till he shows, obviously that's where he is heading so head him off there.

200 yards is too short for the Quadrant Dar Using the Hurricane IID.
found this in the other wishlist, so you want the bombers to be able to sneak around but want an advantage on gvs on the ground?

You dont need the shore bats to not have flashers, we need the flying off the map to be a bit more catastrophic. You fly off the map you get a popup window to turn back immediately, 15 seconds later if not back on the map, all planes explode, proxy awarded, game continues. :devil

This has been wished for before, as well as other penalties for going off of the map.

YES! I tried a similar suggestion like this but no one seemed to bite on it. Suggested that all ordnance is dropped and all ammo for defensive guns is fired off upon leaving map after X amount of minutes of leaving map but it got a lukewarm response. Again it is is another map quirk. Some maps you can kill the off map raiders, some you can shoot them all day and not register damage. Weird....

Most of my vehicle kills were of flippz sneaking into town.

with your 4 fps <S>

looks like they discontinued the quadrant dar for planes

This would be ok if they replaced them with a chain of radar stations like they had IRL

Yea you don't run from a fight...you just fly fighters which can out turn the rest without any sort of skill...guess what....makes you just as bad as those runners you whine so much about.

well thats about all i see in the melee arena. spits, las, yaks. so why shouldnt i be able to fly against them in my choice of plane? i dont complain when a bnz picks me out of fight when im turning with other spits or kis or yaks. seems you arent really sticking with the topic or adding any thing of much value here, only criticizing a players plane choice. or trying to elevate your self saying stuff like you beat players posting in here in the plane set choice.

First you complain about running ponies all the time...second you did it in your comment...third I'm pointing out that your plane choice nullifies that you can't complain about it, which you do.

I edited the bad stuff out: edited for sensitive eyes
junky you so funny

Waaaa, and here I used the shore battery's on purpose in Oceania as early warning beacons to cut down on sneakiness to promote combat. Hitech shoulda let me leave the 30,000ft wall in place....... :furious
Always wondered if he added the detect flashing to shore battery to give players a wake up call on their base being assaulted from the water. Seems there was a discussion about wanting some way to know a base was being long ranged by the cruiser before it was too late to defend the town.

Re: Please Stop Shore Batteries Flashing
anyway to raise the mountains higher at the tanktown on oceanaia?

you so funny junky <-------better?
waystin liked how you upped a wirb and sat on the coast line the other night <S> way to defend against the horde. and talk out both sides of your mouth

Still zero pancake mix Way....Flippz you obviously don't know Waystin2s history in Aces High....at one point in Aces High 2 I would have bet my paycheck that Waystin was the best whirbel gunner in the game. Was a sick clip of him popping Grizz's Me262 from 2K crossing shot...so when you see him in a Whirb just know that was one of the only things he used back in the day....and to see him in one shouldn't be some sort of surprise.....ya big dummy.

Umm your taunting me with a horde at your back. Am I missing something here? Junior varsity commentary. Anti-bored is starting to get quite boring. Go back to your horde where it's safe, there be Pigs here. :aok
-
ummm how do you get good at something? I would say from hiding in it a lot when the horde comes in. so much like you complain about junky he should get the pig pen to follow suit and get in PLANES and fight the horde. seems the more waystin talks then more he seems to avoid combat as much as or more than anyone. just my point of view.

Where the hell did any POTW member ever say crap about people driving tanks?
We are a well rounded squad...so not only do we beat you down in the air....we will beat you down on the ground too.
If this was prison y'all would be holding our pockets...like Waystin said...you ain't got no pancake mix.

Well you caught me. One tIme in a Wirbel instead of flying. Please dont tell anyone that I can also kick your Junior varaity squad butt in the air and on the ground too. I can fly or gv with equal skill, its up to you to pick what you want to die in. I will make it quick every time. It's my promise to you little Anti bordling. Now go away Flippth your deaths bore me and my ankle is chafing from your constant attention.

See Rule #4

We never said it had to be a plane...yall completely disappeared and left the scene...if you upped tanks and whirbs we wouldn't have said anything...but you left completely....kinda like last night....its nice knowing you guys need 4 or 5 to kill me.

how would i have film of doright dropping troops? if i wasnt there i wouldnt have film right? we upped from a further back base because it was pointless to up at that one we were getting vulched. last night i stayed there as long as i could but was running off 4 hrs of sleep and logged at around 10ish. and you were not the only one with 4 on you, every time i got 1v1 with anyone they ran till i was swampped with 4 or 5. i also stayed out of 2 of your fights once when you were in a 152 and once when you were in the spit fighting airchill
