Flying Radar Jammers
If you pick up a radar jammer with an atlas does it still work? If not you should change it cos I think it would be a cool idea! or just have a air unit like a helicopter or something which can act as a jammer. <-- please consider adding this cos it would be epic.

Re: Flying Radar Jammers
I dont think we should be making bomber runs or drops or combombs any more useful as they are now...
Re: Flying Radar Jammers
Commander bombing? You can DO THAT??!
Re: Flying Radar Jammers
sure. play a game once in a while bro, i hear combombs are all the rage nowdays.Caydr wrote:Commander bombing? You can DO THAT??!
to clarify, we are talking about loading a comm into a trans and flying it at the enemy and selfding the trans above the enemy.
ninja edit: jammers turn off while in trans atm

Re: Flying Radar Jammers
tbh, it would make ADV transports pretty insane.
Pick up a jammer, your commander, and a couple cons...
Fly in undetected, drop the cons in a safe spot, continue to combomb and reclaim shortly after.
If you're CORE, you could pick up a jammer and a couple skuttle bombs and do basically the same thing.
Pretty sure flying jammers stopped working a while ago though.

Re: Flying Radar Jammers
You mean, they stopped working in BA, or they don't work period? Because I think you can make them work if you put the transport in turret mode... err whatever. You know what I mean.
Re: Flying Radar Jammers
Arm dragonflies (T2 trans) jam radar, generally works to jam both them and passengers, but when turning it can fail, due to radius being so small. Should be buffed so it actually works.
Re: Flying Radar Jammers
IMO, I still think that Atlas' and Valkyrie could be given a very basic attack weapon, similar to the Banshee's light plasma machineguns would make those T1 airdrops so much more worthwhile.
If the removal of T1 transport privileges for Commanders gets sold, the addition of light weapons for the transports would be a great alternative, and I can't imagine it being overpowered.
Would also give CORE an actual light attack gunship, and then finally the Bladewings could get balanced properly afterwards.

Trans are already OP as it is 

Re: Flying Radar Jammers
all units should work normal while transportet, e.g. com could still assist, tanks could still shoot THAT would be AWESOME

Re: Flying Radar Jammers
And 2 missiles later....
Re: Flying Radar Jammers
Pretty sure it takes 3 (or 4?) hits from Pulveriser to knock an Atlas/Valk down, they got beefed up slightly afaik.

Re: Flying Radar Jammers
A flying jammer that only jams while stationary would be good, but only as a t2 unit and only if it can cloak (While stationary).
It would be useful unit for creating small jammer path quickly.
Also, make that uberunit as weak as piss, so if it did get noticed it would die.

I like how MR.D deletes posts that point out the fact that he's a clueless newbie that doesn't know what he's talking about. Oops.
