Our server has an In-House rule (24/7 Dragon Valley), that you cant attack the US Carrier, except you can shoot the phalanx guns. You are right, they are defensive positions and if you are being engaged, then you can expect to be fired upon, in the Carrier guns! China can TV missile the Guns, and the planes can shot it with the J10 guns, but not missiles or bombs on carrier. What we enforce is that you have to let the jets and helis get off the carrier, and have a chance to attack the Chinese side, nothing crazy, but it is strictly enforced. So stop by if you can play by the simple rules, or find another one of the 25,000 plus servers to play on. Also, if a Jet or Heli is returning to the Carrier to repair/ resupply, they are in play and can be attacked, any time.

I don't have a problem with that. But people always whine to the admins that I'm raping when in fact I'm just shooting the gun, and the admin will kick me taking their word over mine.

Yippers

No such BS thing as letting them shoot first either.

PS
GD this has been a day of being Tk'ed for vehicles and uber noobs. The only positive thing was teaching someone how to steer the TV missile. VERY good shot once he learned that too.

PPS

How far does uncap extend? When does the DONT ATTACK THE UNCAP ON PENALTY OF DEATH wear off? A tank was halfway to the GAS STATION flag on Daqing and of course I lasered his sorry ass but then I got kicked for BASE RAPING. Why not saying the whole effing map is uncap and then we can all go play tiddly winks. JFC.

Yes, it's fucking annoying on Ghost Town. AA sites in the uncap bases can lock on choppers almost in the middle of the map. The spetsnaz AA stuff is very close to the action.
AA lock, I go kill him: "kicked for base raping". Happened multiple times.

Or when some idiot does nothing but camping the TOW in the sas uncap to kill the choppers taking of from the upper south side. Then I go sniper (with the right video settings he's barely visible from the chopper spawn) to kill him before taking off. Guess what happens.

It's basic common sense anyway: if you attack me, expect some retaliation.

That is a very common occurrence and sniping into the uncap should not be considered base camping by any standards. Heck you are shooing from a captured flag point??? How far do they have to go past the uncap before its not base raping???  I shot a heli on Operation Smokescreen when it left the base camp using the base camps stingers and got threatened with a kick for base raping. LOL.....  love the UTAC guys.

All the servers i play let you either:

A) baserape to your hearts content
                   or
B) attack AA not matter where it is,  but no attacking inf/vehicles in uncaps.

If they just made the Essex guns halfway normal, it would solve all this.  Not a chance in hell any pilot would really go after an Essex, unless it was a kamikaze mission.

You have to be being sarcastic, right? Essex are very easy targets, by J-10 guns or Z-10 TV missiles. Even a good AT man can take one out...

Just play by the servers rules.

If raping is allowed then go for it,if not change server.

the essex guns suck. Honestly the missles lock on and rarely hit and kill a jet.

Essex guns are beastely, I love those things, though the Phalynx part should do a lot more damage to choppers.

The trick is to take commander and get in the farthest essex gun. Drop yourself 1-3 supply crates next to the gun and you will have relatively infinite missile spam. This is because the supply crate reloads about 1 rocket a second and as long as you don't hit 0 you never have to reload (the sound will glitch out though because it will make a reloading noise even though your still firing).

This will kill anyone who is dumb enough to come close. Just keep firing even when you don't have lock, it's great fun. Sadly if someone else is commander they will be too stupid to understand this and you will never get an asked for supply crate.

Another tip that is helpful is that you can get in the farthest essex just by aiming up from the uav trailer and jumping and pressing E and you will get in just fine.

Correct, you don't even have to jump, just press e and walk into the wall...

I rape the essex when I can, easy kills. I don't have a problem with easy kills. You almost have to rape the essex on maps like wake or they get all their stuff off it and overwhelm you.
