Here is my experience with the new GV update in the LW Blue Arena earlier this past week:

Sortie 1: Spawned an M4 at an enemy base. Started up the engines. Put my GV into gear and started to move. Got one shotted by a spawn camper and was put in the tower.

Sortie 2: Immediately respawned again in the same GV. Two seconds pass by as I start my engines. I am one shotted again by another spawn camper before my engine completes its startup.

Quit GVing after that. Flying airplanes is much more satisfying for me than getting spawn camped.
Nothing has changed then.  :D

Fixed gv spawns really spoil the gv game. It's just retarded to see people land 20 kills in a gv knowing they most likely were all spawn camps. Unlike airfields there isn't even a way to know if a spawn is camped before you try to spawn on it. GV spawns should be random on a 1 squaremile area so that the spawnee has a fighting chance.

Must be some coad reason cause I cant think of any other justifiable explanation why after 5+ years of the same complaint this hasn't already been implimented.

A little help went a long way for the new settings.

May try it again next month depending on how the updates go.

AH has been changing non stop since I first started the first beta back in 99.

It is very simple people, adapt or leave.

AH is going to move forward, and it will continue to move forward. So the choice is up to you, keep up or get left behind.


Now, no one said it was easy.
(You want to talk about hard, take a look at a trainers life, he gets new release same time as you and has aprox one hour to master it so he can help others with it.)

But the things in life that are worth having are seldom easy.

Call me a Fanboi (its in my job description, go ahead, doesn't hurt me at all)
Call me a progressive (much rather be moving forward than backward)

In 10 years I can count the number of times AH has actually gone "back" on one hand with fingers left over.
And those only happened as a result of unanticipated technical issues, as soon as those were resolved AH went forward again.

There is enough "noise" in the game, and you have added the tank turret sounds on top of the rest which only adds to the fatique factor.

Yeah ... from what I have read, the WWII tanks were whisper quite while operating so as to not distract the tank crew. In fact, they were so quite that many a crew member fell asleep while running around the battle field.

Yes, I have thanks, but it appears there isn't an adjustment for the turrets.

Keep looking.  Hopefully you find it by the 15th.   :rofl

GV spawns should be random on a 1 squaremile area so that the spawnee has a fighting chance.

They already have three random spots within a half-mile area of the end of the spawn-arrow on the map.

So with the new turret-traverse sound, can you spawn campers hear your next victim spin his turret around instead of starting the engine to tip you off that your next skill-less kill is about to take place?  :D
