what was untrue again about what I said? as for "kiddie hour" wouldn't that be when all the adults were at work?

I do see tho that if you play for hours on end that you might get into some war "winning" mentality... but... seems to me that The mere fact that most people are on during prime time would tend to lend credence to what I say about most people only playing an hour or two at a time..

lazs i may add a bit more to your post. The Country with over 200 players is the "superpower"

poor little jakal pup... I can see why you are so defensive... you play countless hours and yet.... every time you are in a fighter there is a better than even chance that no matter what the guy you run into is flying or how badly he sucks at the game or what shape his plane is in or ... even if he initially sees you or not.... he has a better than even chance of handing you your butt.

I can see where tha furball would just be far too overwhelming for yu.... why you would wish to make the map more spread out and have the "missun" mentality.

I just don't think the rest of us should have to suffer for your lack of skill.

You mean, it takes skill shootin someone that never saw ya in a furball, in a spit? Coulda fooled me.

Lazs.. I know it's hard, but try to focus for a second.

You play for five minutes to furball, and expect eeeveryone, and near everything in the game to change for you and your ilk.

People that play strat play more often then you and are more numerous than you.

HTC made maps are geared towards strat, player based maps, besides festerMA is geared towards strat.

But you still think that furballing is the one true path?

You are bored with the game.

We aren't.

I'de tell you to try arguing your point, rather than attacking anyone who doesn't agree, but... You have no point to argue.

Actually Rut you're not quite correct. Yes, originally there was only other fighters to kill but people clamored for more variety.

The initial solution was to code AI buffs and c47s into a strat system, but people rejected it because the real appeal of these games was always shooting down another human being.

So strat and the maps were reworked in conjunction with widening the player base in hopes of capturing some folks willing to act as targets.

sorry rutt... you are wrong again.. if you make bases close together it takes nothing from the strat girls and increases choice for everyone. you are saying that you can't survive in a sa demanding environment? fine.. but for the rest of us.... festers is a blast.

If people were so (LOL) "strat" oriented as yu say then there would be no problem... you wouldn't have to force the furballers to play your way. you wouldn't have to design a map to make it difficult for furballs to happen...

face it... everyone but you and maybe 2 other guys loves festers map and hates the pizza and big isle abortions... Infinity is allmost as bad but IMPROVED when the fields were, in effect, moved closer together.... pizza could be fixed too.

No way of knowing that without a popup poll at logon. The BBS is not representative of the player base.

Fester's map was reset this week. How did that come about if everyone was furballing? And the answer is that not everyone was furballing. There must have been a whole bunch of strat guys capturing fields.

But why was the map reset? There are two possibilities.

There are far more strat players than you realise, with many guys working hard to capture and retain bases.
Some folks decided they'd had enough of FesterMA, and worked to reset it knowing that it would be replaced by a small map.

Either way, you're wrong.

Yeah, big maps suck because you fly up to 20k to have alt advantage and they trump you by going somewhere else. Sucks when you cant have alt advantage all the time.

If you can't find a fight on a big map, you are not looking. At least on a big map the bish cant sent two fighters to every field to take troops and fuel down.

Lazs.... your squad isn't 'everyone'

I said it as clearly as i could.. it still bounced off that thick skull of yours.

You're one ignorant jackarse, ain't ya?

lazs2 · « **Reply #130 on:** November 22, 2003, 01:24:19 PM »

but beetle..... festers map was "playing chess without kings" in your words.... like chess without kings.... it couldn't be won. guess you were wrong.

I think there are plenty of people who like to take bases and think 20 perk points and the free hawiian vacation for "winning" the war but.... they are all foreigners and children and unemployed in the wee hours of the morning... I have only seen maybe three resets in all the time I have played AH.

you can't have it both ways... either festers map allows for all types of gameplay or... it is "chess without kings" and can't be reset.

rutt... I probly am a ******* but the amount of smiley's used in a post is the normal way to judge degree of *******edness. more than 2 or three removes all doubt.

No, Mr. Reagan, the First Amendment was written to protect us from religious tyranny

Hey Sixpence. I'm studing the Constitution and the forefathers who wrote it and I see no evidece to support your claim. Infact Reagan has it right and is supported by the Constitution and by the men who wrote it.

Erm...no, I said it couldn't be won if everyone were to play a third of the game and fly like you. But it has been reset, so the strat movement is stronger than you thought!

lazs isn't ignorant:)

Speaking of the BK's--where have yu guys been lately--Zip can't continue to steal all the kills on his own. It's wearing him out.

no beetle... it simply means that when a country gets enough numbers and/or two low numbered countries are buzy with each other..... the normal steamroller is possible on every single map including festers.

the basic AH strat of "he who has the numbers has the strat" is well and functioning in festers map just as in all the others.... your hysteria and chess analodgies were for naught.

festers map is about choice. everyone has fun and the "strat" guys are still able to steamroller eventually and claim to be "chessmen of the sky"...

everyone is happy so.... lets get those fields moved closer together on the pizza abortion... whadaya say?
