It's not fun anymore!
« on: April 23, 2014, 11:07:14 PM »
Call it a whine and maybe I'm tired but the game play is horrific. You get 30k+ bombers coming over. Even if you get to that alt the windshere throws your aim way off. You run to the factories to protect them and the bombers bail. People come over at 30k and just hang over you. I call them tourists. You lose a base near a strat and you will never have radar, ordnance, troops or whatever again. Yeah, well why don't you defend? You can't if you're not on and at work.

If you fly knights they don't do missions. They will join a horde now and then to furball. You can see them all over a base and the base never gets captured. Happens time and time again.

It's just terrible game play, horrific really.

I still have fun and enjoy the times I get to fly. Just take a break, I've been burned out on it before as well. Hopefully stepping back from the cartoon war for a little bit might give some perspective and you can enjoy the game once again.

There is no windshear at 30k+. The last change in layers happens at 28k so wind will be not harming your aim when attacking any bombers above approximately 28.5k ;)

But I do somewhat agree with the notion the strat effects can be very unbalanced now, depending on map. On some maps (most notably ndisles) some key factories are in positions which makes it impossible to mount any meaningful defense at all. Leading to almost permanent 2h+ downtimes for crucial items all over the map. There are also some other issues connected to it, but that would be beyond the scope and intention of your original whine  :noid

This is getting old.  All countries do the same at one time or another.  If you are defending, I am afraid the best answer is just abandon the base.  Most likely they will never take it anyway .

Still seems fun to me.   :airplane:

Why don't you change your plane/flying style/comfort zone/country/vehicle/and/or attitude?  Or just take a break.

Who cares?  Up a fighter and fight.  So Simpo.

Or, put Me163B's in near every strat so we can shift the whine gearbox over to bomber pilots.

I'm still having fun.  Mornings are quite fun from about 6AM to 10AM mountain time.

    I don't have the time to fly enough to have all the fun I wish.  :furious

   Are the ones unhappy able to fly every day? Get outside the sun is shining!  :cool:
