Radar Testing

[8thJinx]

I wasn't going to bomb**** last night with the gv dar set to JStars (google it) mode. Until I saw that the icons are huge relative to the terrain and gvs are just as hard to spot on the ground as before.

Dude, if you zoom in, the GV icons get smaller relative to the window.

Just keep GV dar bars at a minimum.  All seeing radar means GVs can spawn camp aircraft landing and departing.   In real life the field would be closed and pilots warned to land elsewhere.  GV dar bars mimic this.

If there is no aircraft darbar and you can't figure out there is a gv on the base when you hear canon fire, you are not too bright LOL.
I have never had a problem figuring out when GVs are around or finding them for that matter and I never needed any kind of radar.

Dudette, the trees tend to zoom to all the way up to life size while you are staring at the map inside the cockpit.

Until I saw that the icons are huge relative to the terrain and gvs are just as hard to spot on the ground as before. I kind of like the idea of JStars dar vs sector gv dar. GVs just have a sector gv dar unless they haven't moved their gv (or grounded plane) for xxx yards in the prior yy minutes then the gv icon starts showing up on gv JStars dar.

While playing with arena settings, maybe try the combination of dar like last night with reduced icon range. The 3k yards setting of FSO might be fun and reward good SA.

If you can't have fun adapting, how in the world did you have fun doing the exact same old thing night after night?

When you zoom in the map the icons put you right on top of GVs LOL

You can't hear cannon fire over the roar of a Merlin, especially when he's not firing until you are configured, low, and slow.   SMH.   

The dar bar mimics sentries on the ground. 

"Tanks in the vil!"

No, they stay the same relative to the window, they shrink relative to the map.

Guess I have a better headset? I have no problem hearing a tank round when I am readying for takeoff.

Hey, at least they figured out how to wake up the Forum.
This has to be the most active thread in a while LOL.

You can hear a tank round when he isn't shooting?

While you are landing?


Wow.  Impressive.

And you're crying about dar bars?

This temp test of  ALL DAR UP has dramatically affected the STRATS damage.

Skuzzy was on 6 hours ago and reset the new bustr Rift Valley map to the current  MONTIS map with ALL DAR UP, Skuzzy said it was reset to work on the bugs in the RV map.

Montis has been up for 6 hours now and for the STRATS one country are all at 100%, another as only minor damage on one of its strats and the third country has only one strat less half way down.

A major change to game play imo.   Note  Hitech said this is only a test for data.

Reminds me of the silhouetted enemy tank on WoT.. With that being said I do like and appreciate the effort from hi tech to experiment and try different things to see how it plays out.. It means they are listening

It would be nice if others would recognize this instead of going off half-cocked with anger over it.   He said it was a test.   So in good faith go along with it for now.

Don't think I cried about anything and I'm glad to see you are just as insulting here as you are in the game. Said all I have to say to you Good Day.

(You go on using your ears and the rest of us will use the dar bars.)

NME chutes are even showing up on dar as fighters.


(where is the parachute emoji?)
