MOLESTATION
a top secret experiment being conducted by ZUPERMAN in conjunction with the United States government whereas a tank is allowed to go underground while the blue pilots are fanatically trying to kill it. The game is to test the frustration of the blue pilots while their hangars are being blown to smithereens AND ALL YOU GET IS THE SHAFT.

sorry VON if I stoled your ideal. NOT.

Another problem I'm having, I will have a red dead in my sites and POOF they will disappear and then reappeared in time to shoot you down. I've been having that problem for a long time, especially when he chutes, disappears and then shoots you from the chute.

However these problems only helps you get better by anticipating them. I love this game

This is not at all what i expected when I read the title. :pinch:

A very well placed bomb will kill these tanks. We all know how hard it can be to bomb a moving tank though.

When they're moving isn't the problem. Just like any glitch in the game, once certain pilots learn about it they exploit it. The problem is the tankers that have learned the subterranean locations that make them impossible to kill. I've noticed certain players that have navigated to the same spot(s) over and over and then just sit there to dial in on the hangars. They know what they're doing and just abusing the glitch and don't care.

It's just like the chute glitch that so many now use. Despite the fact that they're circumventing the way the game was designed to be played, they think can do it because they can.

It's getting frustrating. Having players play the game on multiple versions is only going to cause problems.

What's the chute glitch?

If they are stationary you can bomb them. Very, very difficult. Yes frustrating. I'm working out how and where to kill them. The game is broken. Again.

I'll PM you on the chute glitch. I don't want to make it any more widespread than it is by publicizing it in the forum.

Lets just pray that apple gets off their ass pulls their dippers up and release .38 on apple so we are all on the same terrain and see the same hills and mountains. Thats really all this problem is. Apple have hills and mounds in some spots and android has them in another spot.

I have to say that all these problems are actually fun and add a new twist to the game.

You wait for the tank barrel to break ground and then you shoot the crud out of him, you only have like a 10 second window to get him, this takes focus and aiming.

It's also fun to shoot at flying tanks.

I LOVE THIS GAME WITH AND WITHOUT THE PROBLEMS.

Well, for the record... When a mole tank pops out, I'll be drilling it until he disappears. I'm getting the lag kill along with the destroyed tanked.

Extremely frustrating to have opponents that use the mole hill shield. If you are called out, you could at least make the run to the base and even out the chances. Behavior such as running to the mole hill and stopping to use indirect fire points out that you are taking advantage.

In a game yesterday with several top ranked players on each side, and mole tanking was gleefully practiced by many, including the storied vets. Mole busting occupied much of the allied time given the mole tunnel shielded crests in range of the hangars, and the digging offenders would run back and forth on the ridge to make it tougher to bomb, but never come towards the base away from the shroud. Luckily we had one player on the "right" platform to see the moles, and between his guns and our blind bombing we held the losses down and it turned into an epic battle until...I and a couple others got dropped and couldn't get back no matter how many sign ins and sign outs. We lamented our abrupt and unwilling departure in another game, a lame CTC snorefest.

Good Lord I hate the technology of this game, but I...can't...quit...PLAYING IT! They say the first step is admitting you have a problem, right? Now I have moved into the top 500 and something, got my ktd ratio above .500, have an avatar and a banner, and am thinking of ways to customize my plane if that ever becomes an option, I would say I have a problem. Or at least my wife does.

This whole mole tank thing wouldn't be so bad if high rank players wouldn't take advantage. Had a game a few ago where samweb mole tanked and set there and shelled our carrier with another high ranking pilot telling him what a good job he was doing. All this after I told the red team the y were mole tanking.

For example, here's "Kman" (not to be confused with Diesel). I will throw him under the bus because he has recent complaints about him (Davy and Spectre saw him bomb his own hangars a month ago, and I saw him tank spawnkilling in DF 2 months ago; and he didn't get it).
#1373 Kman Air Commodore I (15) 596 46 768 480 242

We're all in BTC, I tank, one of the players says I'm underground, so I say Ok and self-destruct. In the next run, I tell Kman that he's tanked underground, he says "Good for me." WTH? I regress and call him a jerk. The rest of the discussion is at the 3rd grade level.

Zup, please make this release mandatory!

IMHO I don't blame anyone for moleing. It is now part of the game until it is fixed. Sucks but that's just the way it is right now.

I don't know B. it just seems like terrible sportsmanship. I guess to each his own, but if you are top, say 1000 in the game and you know your mole tanking, why do it? In other words You've been here long enough to know the difference. I'd like to think I'm a better player than that. I like to win or lose fare and square. Wins don't mean much if you have to cheat the other team for them. I'm plenty good enough to win without any sort of glitch.

You are right though. It's a part of the game now. I've been investing time in my defense for them. That's all you can do. I've seen guys that rarely tank, going like mad to get in one and drive to a hill lately. Sad. I guess the bottom line is, every one will play the way they see fit. It still doesn't make it right. I'm all for points and wins, I'd love to see the #1 spot, if only for a day but I don't need them that bad. The #1 would be a false sense of accomplishment in my own mind if I achieved it that way. I think every one else would see it that way too.

To MANFRED, you are correct sir, this does really help you to adapt and overcome so they either cannot tank or don't last long. I really dont mind, it is a interesting part of the game WIN OR LOSE.

To MAX. YOU ARE NUMBER 1. The top players like WIG are excellent players and I hate going against them but I think you have the ability to be just a little more deadly. One thing for sure the top players are all to be respected for their ability to make a mess out of your stats.

Also the way people handle these advantages by the way they play gives you insight as to their character. You learn a great deal about who you play with.
