Egoleter ∞ Players 4,046 posts Report post #3 Posted July 21, 2017 Managed to safe him as well. He never ran because we were completly smoked up during the initial collection of the soldiers. He was one of the seven ships we saved in that attempt, thouhg we failed at the 7k barrier by a few hundred and only had 7 fighter squadrons downed. There was no special achievement. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Egoleter ∞ Players 4,046 posts Report post #14 Posted July 21, 2017 Did try to block him just now, because my teammate wasn't in postion to smoke him up in time. He just pushed and pushed and pushed until he was past. We managed to keep him alive for another 90 seconds or so but his attraction to those mines is just to strong. Now I'm done with this operation. I have lead all my friends to a five star victory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[TTTX] Tyrendian89 [TTTX] Players 4,608 posts 8,139 battles Report post #15 Posted July 21, 2017 something I really want to try is to find and sink the Luftwaffe. Sounds odd, you say? Well, with Extended Tech Tree mod you can actually see that WG was lazy and has a Langley model with 9999 plane capacity and 0km detection launch the planes for the Luftwaffe (and the RAF as well actually) - and 0km detection doesnt help against proxyspotting, so we'd just have to form a line abreast some 3.5km or so apart and comb the southeastern edge of the map. Just to try out whether we can break the mission that way (because once you know where the thing is you could just go after it solo every time as well), and maybe troll WG a bit for being lazy sods :D 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They just fly in across the map border. I didnt proximity detect anything down there, but got targeted by a hell of a lot of bombers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[TTTX] Tyrendian89 [TTTX] Players 4,608 posts 8,139 battles Report post #18 Posted July 21, 2017 heh... maybe WG spawns those CVs a couple of KM outside the actual map (we know planes can go there with a few tricks, so I would guess WG can spawn ships there too?)... maybe someone can take RPF to that corner? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Darth_Glorious Beta Tester 2,464 posts Report post #25 Posted July 22, 2017 That Park is a trap to lure people to the minefield to remove some players early on. Saving him don't give you any secret achievement except distracting you from the real job. I managed to save about 9k by protecting all 10 other civilian ships Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
