Crows Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 What does this warning look like, or do? Does it make a noise to the enemy? does it flash a red light, or does it do nothing and just delay the shots? AKA no warning, just a delay.

You're supposed to hear a beeping noise when you get in range of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is no warning, well you get the idea. ? Be safe out there, and good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaHaBe Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 It would be nice to have a Warning regardless, Too many times have I been flying and the lag is so bad, that before I know I am around turrets I have been shot. Either fix the lag or give some warning would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClamsJager Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 on pvp I use no warning, nothing scares the crap out of you like a pteradon getting chewed apart when you get to close to base. one way to guarantee they don't come back or fly over your base.

GritlandYankee Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Enemies can use the warning system to test boundaries without fear of damage or death, making it a high security risk. You could post billboards around the perimeter of "your area" with something like: "Warning - Turrets Ahead." It serves the same purpose without giving enemies a chance to map out your turret coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaHaBe Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 thats my point though, with the lag and stuff not spawning in quickly lot of times I am over a base and didnt know , or flew into a wall. I could fly higher but then is harder to land when you are out of stamina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GritlandYankee Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I hear ya.'. Generally, whenever I'm on a new server and/or don't know where bases are, I explore slowly. VERY slowly. I start with running a perimeter circle around my own base, moving progressively outward. And when I need to go hit resource spawns outside my area, I do recon slowly. Chances are a large base is not going to pop up overnight. (It does happen, of course, but usually not.) Once you make a resource run a few times, you'll learn the areas to avoid. TLDR: Recon slowly and follow known paths to limit deaths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brayn Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 The warning sounds like a super high tech machine winding up. Terrifying when you first hear it. If your turrets are medium or high there's almost no chance for them to hear it from the outskirts of turret range since sound doesn't carry that far. It's useful if you're in a high flyover area to save on bullets. I find the warning is useful on scorch where we have a couple turrets dedicated to wilds only. Lets us know it's a wild wyvern triggering our turrets and not our impending doom from attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theronin Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Yea in my own opinion, warnings are a total sham. People will just take advantage of your warning and some will consider it a challenge to get past your defenses. I rarely ever set my turrets up to anything other than long range, no warning. What you may want to consider though is setting a turret in a cluster of turrets to players only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
