Currently in a match in which another player times the AA cycle allowing him to fly into a SAM lvl2 (8x) protected area, patrol, do damage and get out without taking SAM damage (only basic defence damage).
Apart from this being close to a bug, this tactic is supported by CON news that publishes the exact time AA fires. This info can be used to time an AA cycle.
It is further supported by the fact that in a multiple AA stack all AA synchronise
There is nothing to counter this strategy.
I suggest either:
> a player-controlled reset button;
> a computer-generated random element;
> AA in the same stack is automatically put on different cycles (evenly spread over the base cycle of 10 minutes);
> simple way to start is by removing the minutes from the CON news reports.
When first confronted with it I thought it was a bug.
I still think it is a bug put a programmed one.
Actually, it takes the fun out of the game.
It is frustrating to see 8 SAMS almost defenceless.
And not fair because there is no known way to change the SAM behaviour.
