Title: mountains and bases
Post by: viking73 on July 02, 2002, 04:16:20 AM
Why does htc insist on having runways right next to the mountains. No one in their right mind would build an airfield where you can't take off from unless your in a fighter. Even some places, no aircraft can go that way. Then there's the fields that are at sea level with 3-4k mountains right next to them. So you have to fly out to sea or along the coast for miles just to get altitude to go inland. In the Med map, A43 is situated with mountains on both ends. If you heavy or in a buff you might as well just turn and go across the field.

I've also noticed that a number of bases on the Mindnao map have no ground routes to other bases. This is especially bad is the western part of the map where there are also at least 3 large airfields all together.
