Yes, darn those people who ruin the best laid planes for land-grabbery through stealth and end causing actual fights.
 
I WISH, that who ever has command of a CV should be able to prevent others from taking off from the CV.
That way, when a CV is moving into posistion to strike an enemy base, no one could up from it, causing the enemy base to start flashing, or making a "dar" bar appear, alerting the enemy to the CV's position.
"Crikey, sir. I'm looking forward to today. Up diddly up, down diddly down, whoops, poop, twiddly dee - decent scrap with the fiendish Red Baron - bit of a jolly old crash landing behind enemy lines - capture, torture, escape, and then back home in time for tea and medals."

How bout the ability for the CV commander to warn (with lets say... lights in the hanger and tower or a pop-up when you press take-off saying what's up) people that he wishes that no one takes off at the moment because of a) the CV is turning or b) it is moving into position covertly.  This would solve the abuse issue and would communicate intentions and a reason to people attempting to take off without the CV commander having to get angry.

Sure some would choose to disregard what the CV commander said, but if the CV gets sunk... he was warned.

Let's add something else that who ever is in command must stay in the Cv tower, if he ups in a plane or moves to another field he looses command of the CV. Thus allow some one else to take command if being attacked.

 I agree with DHawk but add a feature that only the CV commander can do..... add a box similar  to  selecting  'fighter' or 'attack' before a mission and have it read FLIGHT DECK OPEN or CLOSED...... closed no planes can take off or land.

its simple, set a range from the base at which planes could up, and a minumum distance from the base you could up from ex: some nub with a shade takes cntrl of the CV, and attempts to not allow people to up, but when it gets within minimum distance, planes can up, kinda like a failsafe. :rock

Why exactly does a 27,000 ton ship not set off the dar to begin with? 

I suppose it's flying too low.

I see your point wrongway, games like, football, baseball, and basketball just fell apart because "someone" wanted to make rules and enforce them.

Every game has limits and rules, discussing the possibility of changing them, does not necessarily mean that it will automatically "not promote game play". It would be a worthwhile discussion to have about any "wish", to see if it either positively or negatively impacts game play.

The main point I was trying to make with my response to this wish is this; currently the player who has control of the CV suffers no impact (good or bad) for how they handle the carrier group. It can easily be said that the CV jockey who drives the CV into the PT spawn just to try and spawn LVT's feet dry is taking away from my game playing experience. If someone so desperately needs to do something reckless with the CV they should at least suffer the consequences, just like every other aircraft and vehicle in the game.


I believe the consequences of said reckless actions are your CV sinks.

How about I tell you where or when you can or can't fly just because you aren't conforming to the way I want to do things?

Sound fun?

That is my objection.

Also, a FLEET within the DAR ring, that I canSEE if I look in the right direction, should set the base to flashing on the map, irregardless of people taking off or not.

This isn't enough considering the rampant moronic use of CVs in the Mains. Bringing the boat so close to shore you have TANKS firing on it is beyond reckless.

I say that if you have command of the CV and the boat gets sunk within the dar circle of an enemy base you lose 10000 Perks. If you don't have 10000 Perks, you go into the negative.

OK. let me redo this wish.
Let's say for instance that a CV is not being used, and a squad, or a group of people decide they want to do a mission to take a base, and they want to use that CV that no one else is using. So someone makes and posts the mission and the plan is set into motion.
Well, then someone else sees that CV nearing an enemy base and decides to up from it and attack the base on their own, alerting the base of the CV's location and thus comprimising the mission.
So I guess what I'm saying is that if a CV is being used for a "POSTED MISSION", maybe there should be some way for the Mission planner to prevent people from upping before time.

And please forgive me Lord wrongway for posting an idea without first gaining your approval of said idea. I know how it must break your heart to be so critical of the ideas of others, FORCING you to post a reply filled with so much undue sarcasm.  I weep for you. :cry

Forgot who said this while trying to take a base, but the quote goes like this. "I cant help you with ack, Im not in attack mode" This is with only 2 ack up in the town while troops were there, waiting. The rest of the town was down.

OK.  Here goes. 

The problem as I see it is you want to deny others the ability to fly from a particular field, being a carrier in this instance, merely because it will mess up your plans.  Fair?  For everybody?  Shoe on the other foot OK with you?

That's all.

This post lacks sarcasm.
