Trinity map is back !

[1pLUs44]

That will take some major effort...

I thought it was kind of sad when I logged on, got onto Tank Town... saw only 1 tank, and it was friendly.

I think it's like I reasoned earlier.. too many players don't even know what a Tank Town was about.

And the few that do, go there, see nobody's there and immediately go elsewhere.

What we need is some kind of priming (hope thats the correct word), some kind of event to get players into TT in bigger numbers

Tank Klub. 

[NEARY]

Tank Klub. 

that still happens?

[moot]

Stopped happening because of people raining on their parade.. Tho I dont know about others, Id be glad to intercept jabos over trinity TT.. Used to do it a lot.

[Delirium]

I am terribly sorry, NB. I was certain Fester had made that map but I was mistaken.

Either way, it is nice to see it back.

As much as I love tanking and would want to participate in tank klub I would love chilling with moot at 30k in 152s swatting griefers just as much.

What was the map called where the FT was over the lake? (I called it Scrape Metal Lake)


And I don't really remember Trinity but glad its back regardless

Yah...taking a Jug with droppsies and hunting weenies flying in to grief the gv fun was always a great pleasure. Needless to say...I got a few "friendly" pm's from doing this.

That was called the donut...not sure if it had an "official" name. I wouldn't look for it anytime soon.

This is a great map!  I was not around years ago when the TT were different than now.  I went to the OBVIOUS TT today and sure enough, it was empty. Isn't it obvious what it is there for?  Rhetorical Question...

Maybe we will get a few other maps back in rotation like Donut and FesterMA

Close, it's my obligatory once a year visit to the inlaws. 

Oh man, I would pay BIG BIG money to limit my in law exposure to once a year.  Count your blessings brother!

Have HTC put this map up next Titanic tuesday and have one of the staff go there personally and kinda advertise maybe? Say that there's a Staff mision going on there or something?

You're probably right.

I know that in my squad (Rolling Thunder), we have a few guys who are all about the GV fights.  They have heard the buzz about this map, but have been disappointed by the activity in TT.

I think it may take somebody notable, planning a major TT event (think MoM event for tanks).

Announce it...  Plan it...  Launch it...

Build it and they will come... 

(More important to get a massive tank fight going then it is to successfully over run TT, so don't try to plan to win.  Just plan to engage.  Train the habit of big tank fights, worry about winning them much much later.)

Best Trinity TT story evah. Many many moons ago Kermit, Betty, and a couple others pissed away god knows how long to get B17s over the mountains.  Well apparently from that altitude it can be difficult to decipher whats going on down on the ground.....  Long story short they bombed friendly bases and gvs instead of the enemy.

 

That was the first memory I had when I saw the map!

5 B17 formations climbed over Tank town at 20,000ft.  We were to drop our bombs on the enemy GV spawn point.  We missed and dropped on our friendly spawn point.  The responses on range of our idiotic drop was great!  So many enemy gvs were just 1 mile away from our drop.  Epic Fail.
