Hey before you guys lock this thread, could you please shed some light on the radar issue in the DA?  Is this just the result of a few kids going crazy with bombs, or has it been disabled by HTC on purpose?

If it's the former, could you reset the radar please?  If it's the latter...  Where's that bribe link?  Because this is not making things easier (the group of us that duel have no "check 6" option due to killshooter turned on, so voice blips on the radar are the next best thing...  No radar, no voice blips...  It's not cool).

Thanks,

The former, though I wouldn't necessarily call it "going crazy" when someone bombs a target located in an area explicitly named "bombers run"

Point taken.

Shorter regeneration time, anyone?  I could deal with radar off for 30 seconds if I had to.

I never understood why they didnt do that....

Set DowntimeMultiplier to .001

At most HQ would stay down for 40 seconds, no reason for anything to stay destroyed long.

It gets so bad that some come in at 15k, deack the fields and start vulching. Usually its a Tempest,
190, or F4U that even if you do run them down it takes a while. You either fight to get of the field
or spend too much time chasing dweebs.

Turn ack hardness up too while your at it....

I sincerely have the utmost sympathy for Skuzzy, sometimes this forum is more like a homicidal child with Attention Deficit Disorder watching reruns of Fraggle Rock.
