  1. I have played on I&A servers with multiple armed helicopters and jets, and that does take away from the experience when they annihilate all the vehicles at the AO instantly, but i don't think that the Greyhawk is capable of effectively doing that on it's own. But that is why I suggested the increased rearm time or reducing it to a single Greyhawk to balance out, not that I really feel that it will be overpowered but in case that would happen,.. I personally just really dislike the amount of time you spend waiting for the respawn, but if it´s possible to never have them explode as you say, I might need to figure it out myself I guess.
  2. Maybe it's because I play on EU 1, which means I have to laser targets myself, so you're dependant on the Darters or Remote designators which you have to bring yourself, this severely increases the time it takes to get anything done. I usually get the RT down but that's about it, by no means am I able to take down the entire AO, but maybe that's just me.
  3. It did really reduce the amount of times it blew up for me, but there still seems to be a luck factor involved where it blows up even though you did the exact same thing as before, when one of the greyhawks got out just fine but the other one blew up, doing the exact same thing.
  4. Hi folks, A few times now have there been people who were teamkilling with a vehicle by constantly driving back and forth in the spawn area. The spawn area is surrounded by mostly large sandbags, but on 2 sides there are low concrete barriers, these are easily traversed by tracked vehicles such as the Bobcat, Mora, Slammer etc. The same goes for the helicopter pick up zone at spawn. I think it would help if you replace the low barriers with more sandbags, like those that are surrounding the rest of spawn already. Simply leave some gaps in between to allow units to pass through, but prevent all vehicles from entering the spawn area. The same could be applied to the helicopter zone, where the low barriers are often traversed by teamkillers aswell. This would also prevent the need to step over the low barriers awkwardly every time, although it's not the main issue. I don't know if there is a reason for the low barriers being there in the first place, but I do not see why they would have to be there. If there would a reason for it, i'd like to hear why. Thanks.
  5. Hello everyone, I recently found myself playing as the UAV Operator quite often, it's quite fun to be able to support the ground units by taking out high threat armored targets or large groups of hostile units. However despite applying all the techniques from guides and the FAQ, the greyhawk is stilly pretty prone to blow up for no good reason, as has been the case for years now. Cycling the crew, killing yourself, connecting to gunner, waiting etc, or allowing the AI to get going on it's own did reduce the amount of times it blew up, but the problem still persists. This, combined with the fragile nature of the Greyhawk, constant threat of enemy jets at base, in the air and an abundance of AA at the AO means that the vast majority of time there is no Greyhawk up in the air, and you spend your time trying to awkwardly provide intel with the Darter, cross referencing with the map since the UAV Terminal does not show players on the map either. Not to mention the tendency for it not to listen when there are targets around. All in all I find the UAV operator to be a rather frustrating job at times. The UGV not really being a valuable asset since it's a wheeled vehicle instead of a tracked vehicle, so it's very easily disabled by gunfire, once it arrives at the AO after a long 60km/h drive. Considering the blowing up of Greyhawks has been an issue for years now, I don't expect a fix for that, but I was wondering if the spawntime of the Greyhawk could be reduced so it becomes a more enjoyable and worthwhile job. Possibly increasing the rearm and repair time, or only leaving only a single Greyhawk if it were to become OP because of this. I would love to hear other opinions or suggestions on the matter, why you agree or disagree with this. Thanks.
