N00b Questions - Transports


Yeah I could prolly look this crap up, but why? You can just tell me.

The transporters.....cool looking, neat idea.

However, sitting in a transporter for 30min while some pilot flies me to battle will be really ghey. Like my coworker said, some of the things in life aren't fun and shouldn't be in games. Like just sitting there doing nothing.

So is this a 5 min ride? I could handle that, or are we talking 30min. In which case I won't be playing the game. Is there stuff to do? Turret gunners etc. Are they for everyone?

Basically I'm trying to find out how long I'm going to have to go afk while i'm getting flown into battle.

Well inside the transporter you can talk to other people and play cards.

So it might be fun.
Strip poker until we get there?

If the fighting is 30 min away, you picked the wrong spawn tube.

I like eMa's ideas.

but i doubt the ride in a transport will be that long.. and i doubt it will be too boring. There are gunner positions on the transport, and also a spot for a vehicle. Plus there are warp gates you can go through to other continents

(you cannot be attacked while around warp gates, so people cant camp)

Nice hijack :|

How is sitting in the back of a transport not boring? I mean horse rides to get anywhere in DAOC are the suck, you just hope on a horse and go do some other crap for 10 min But 10 min is about the longest horse ride.

Transports are faster then horses.

From what I understand, there are spawn places based on what your Empire controls. So basically when you start, if the front lines are in New York (for example) and you choose to spawn in California, then you deserve to spend all day in the transport.
