HTC please change the down time for the HQs in the DA
« on: August 31, 2009, 02:22:09 AM »
Bombing the HQ is now funny for the TARDS (grievers)in the DA, but it hurts the guys trying to 1v1.
 
can you set the re-up time for the HQ to 0.000001 or something

Yes the tards that feel the need to bomb HQ in the DA is a bit lame.
But seriously, if you're complaining because without radar you can't find your opponent during an arranged 1v1?  How hard can it be?  Both tune to some 2xx vox channel (even text shouldn't be a problem).

"I'm up from field blah heading south at 6k."
"Rgr, I'm up from other field blah heading north at 6k."

Even at cesspool lake you don't need radar...just fly to the middle at 20k and dive into the flock that are at 5k.

Which is pretty much SOP for furball lake anyway....
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

I wonder why players are called "tards" that are just using the map as intended

Because I never looked at the bombing run sector...why would anyone need to Duel a bombing run?   :lol
Perhaps the HQ needs to be removed or moved somewhere else.

Chnaging downtime to just 10 seconds would be the best solution.

No new map necessary, the bomber guys can still se if they had any effect, but the impact on the fighters would be almost zero.

It's actually rather pointless to even HAVE the DA bombing range since the training arena settings were modified several months ago to deliver "object destroyed" reports when sufficient ordinance was delivered to the target.

But in the DA you can have interceptors trying to stip the bombers, an escorts fighting them. You can practice and simulate battles. In TA planes do not go down.
The only pointless thing I see is standard MA downtimes for objects ;)

I made so the HQ's in the DA are practically impossible to take out.
