This question didn't get answered a few days ago and I'd love some of your perspectives (DEVS that is).

The airport in Basrah.... as an insurgent, you get close, you die. ok. But now with the speedy motorcycles they can cheat the death count and get all the way into the airport, blowing up all the apcs at once. This sucks because of the long spawn times.

My question is, is this the way its been planned or is it an exploit? will there be a fix for this in the future or did you mean for one person to take out 5 apcs at once? seems like its just playing dirty.

thanks,

stop complaning, its nothing bad just shoot the motorcycle up a bit and it will blow up by itself.

It was not the intention. On the other hand, I dont think its a serious problem. I cant tell you if its being worked on right now (or not) because there're, certainly, more pressing matters.

I dont think its an issue. The Brits can do the same to the palace of insurgents (blowing all their **** up) and if an insurgent can sneak past the VCP and get to the airport in a extremely vulnerable vehicle like a dirtbike, then props to them!

v0.7 insurgents explosives will play a bit different role hopefully with more emphasis on roadside bombs then jihad bikes (as much fun as jihad bikes are they are a bit /too/ common right now as the best way to kill APCs, roadside bombs should be the most common tactic if going for realism).

?

I noticed that Fuzz is unbanned now.

Edit: oh, now I see the next thread all about this.

On topic, it not that big of a deal. there inst half the team at base camping for a A10 anymore so their is not as much incentive to do so anymore.

Unfortunately that behaviour will get you kicked or even banned off the germans TB servers where their rules are so strict that they disallow methods of sabotage used on other servers without fear of retribution.

if all of the apc's are just sitting at the airport then does it matter if one insurgent goes and blows them up since no one was using them in the first place?

So not really a big problem, if the team is using those apc's then they are not going to be all sitting there right next to each other inside the airport.

Put some mines inside airport somewhere between IFVs/Rovers parking lot and airports main gate

Fast moving bike won't be able to make a turn in the right moment and will drove right on the mine

And FYI, the IFVs in the airport respawn in 5 minutes.

When I jihaded the motor pool, I respawned in 60 seconds, spawned somewhere in the city, rigged up another jihad car and by the time I came past VCP, new IFVs we're already there.

this is the sort of answer i was trying to avoid from non devs

thanks for the feedback devs, fuzzhead, good to see you back, hope you had a nice holiday.

i agree the moto jihad bikes are a little too ridiculous right now, looking forward to .7.

cheers,

If i remember correctly its possible to adjust the damage and how fast you take the damage while being outside of combat area. So its possible to make those jihad bikes die instantly, but instantly aint very good, just within 5 seconds or something so that they cant get to the vehicles in the airport.

And its only matter of tweaking 1 number

Looks like we have a troll here: /. There’s too many trolls on the PR forums it disgusting why should we have to put up with such nasty people who don’t respect others and there opinions.

Im absolutely sick of these people who come on the forums just to start fight and be a **** if you want a fight go to your local pub and request a beating or a knife between the ribs Don’t bring your suicidal wish to die here >

and your lack of manners.

+ Why should I have to berate you guys on manners, I thought it be intuitive in your survival instincts (be nice to people= long healthy life) (be an arse =Pain to you or even death by catapult).
