Warhawk Omegathread

[hellmonkey]

Yes it is true. Its available on high ranked servers. If i join one by accident I leave, its not that fun.

When creating a map under ctf options, there is a box for fly with flag, this refers to warhawks and dropships.

The concept is, let the host decide and call it a day, I found when your having fun with friends this can be very interesting setting...

Ok, now, if you cant "fly with flag" is it possible to be in a jeep with the flag and have that Drop Ship pick up the jeep your in and fly it back to the base?

Yes... because the jeep is not a plane and while being propelled by the drop ship is still a jeep.

Which gives drop ships that extra oomph.

If I play Warhawk, mostly / only CTF.

I could never pick up the flag and fly with a Warhawk.
You can only Drive a jeep / or get into one if someone else is driving.


If you can manage it to bring the Jeep on the Warhawk, then yes, you could fly back to your base...

It´s difficult, but I´ve seen people transporting a tank, so.....

[Pelican170]

Cool, thats what I thought. Thanks.

Congrats! I'm just glad it isn't mine. Whew.

When you come back, I'll come on for a game or two. I probably will be taking a couple of weeks off, so I should be rusty enough for you to sniff my fuel vapor as swoop down on your tank.

Stay safe.

That is incorrect, there a is a option for enabling fly with flag but most people do not turn it on, its a option of the host and not the user.

I believe its off by default...

[Blu-Style]

Ah ok, good to know thkx.

It would be lame if you could fly with the flag & Warhawk to you base.
So, I understand that no one wants to activate this option.

Game is fun. Graphics are OK, not stunning, but smooth.

It´s a third person shooter.

its all multiplayer only right?

[Blu-Style]

Yes, NO campaign or anything. A online only game.

[Pelican170]

Its online multiplayer only. Its hard at first but its like any game, you get better with the more time spent. Graphics are ok. But its extremely addicting once you get the hang of it. I was very bad for like the first 3 weeks of playing. Then I realized it was the best $35 ive ever spent. used at gamestop..

Yep, you can play it splitscreen online, splitscreen lan, online, or lan.
This means you can play with a buddy next to you, and still play online
with other people.

The other person just hits x joins, and if they leave they can quit without
affecting the other player.

Hey, just be sure to give the game time. like i said, its a hard game, and the instruction manual does not explain very much. If i were you, i would print out the IGN Warhawk Guide that you can get for free online and read that through after you play a little. It will give you a good understanding of whats going on and how to use the weapons correctly...

Im not sure I havent played a rank game in so long...

I would assume not since the other person can be on the other team, and that could be very cheap thing to do.

I dont think you can. Question for you, why would you not play ranked games? they are the only ones that I will play because I want to keep upping in rank and get more customization stuff...
