FesterMA is Fester FURBALL

[Mini D]

That's an odd reply to someone stating why they don't like the map rude.  Seems there's been a group of people that have quite consistantly said they don't care how much fun others are having on maps right up until recently.

It's funny to watch people hop back and forth across the fence and use the same arguments back and forth.  It's even funnier when you realize neither "side" is right.

This comment speaks volumes. You can't milkrun and therefore you don't like the map.

FesterMA definitely challenges those brilliant stratiticians out there to come up with something better than swarming one base while porking the fuel at the next closest base. In most cases there are several next closest bases; because of the density of bases on the front, it's difficult to get a lone Tiffy into one without being challenged; and even the next next closest bases are a reasonable flight away.

Claiming that the high base density of FesterMA somehow curtails the strategic element of the MA only goes to show how lame much of that so-called strategy is.

If you are really into strategy, you'll embrace the different challenge that this map offers and devise new and clever ways to achieve your objectives.

Fester Map is decent.

Its not my personal favorite, but its no where near the bottom either.   Id say its about 2-3 from the top of my list.

In my Opinion its appears to be one of the easiest Maps to strat or reset.   ::Shrug::    one must adjust tactics for each map.  

Its a fast paced map, with a lot of action no matter how you use it.  I think overall its a great addtion and an excellent effort to try another approach.  

Some Like it,  Some dont,  I dont see the need to insult each other over opinions.   Arik stated his, no need to flame him or anyone else.  

Im glad Fester built it,  I think its sizing is about right.

Ruh roh.. struck a cord. The personal attacks cometh.



See, they aren't used to being something less than almighty, bring em off thier perch and all they can do is throw personal attacks at ya. Or bring up stats,  and before you look, Lazsrudetoad, mine are poor. I can tell ya that now.

I have to agree its been a bish/rook gangbang furball the last couple of nights were the knights have to up massive numbers to counter the duel attacks due to being out numbered by 20-50 players from both sides.  We justdont  have enough guys to go around and half of them wouldn't monitor the map for sneak attacks if the map bit them on the leg.

its the MA tards, if you want 30k spit duels go to the CT.

deja.. your point is taken but... I believe that certain truts are undeniable and I think there is a reason that they go over your head.

The truth is that in an arena where all planes are allowed then the best way to get the most choice of gameplay and usable ac choice is either to be extremely good with a whole lot of patience or.... fly a map with a lot of fields close together.

Standing behind you watching you fly made it a little clearer.... yu are very good at this and... you are VERY easily amused... I don't know what you are enjoying but you seem to be... when the lone 190 drifted down to make his sissy little passes at your P40.... I groaned.... I was allready bored with doing what I considered doing nothing for 5 minutes (puting myself in your place) but you were content... a groaned because the 190 attack was sooooo predictable and so unfun to me but.... you enjoyed it...

 With your skill and patience level it wouldn't matter what map was up or how many fights you found or of what quality... even ones that are really non-fights... you seem to make the most of them all... Admittedly.... that is the best way to be but is completely contrary to my nature...  if I don't have a dozen or more fights an hour I may as well be doing laundry or loading all those dirty dishes into the dishwasher.

I believe that close fields offer the most choice for everyone... I really believe that festers map proves this.   I believe the reaction to it was predictable... allmost universal acceptance except by the few truly evil "enemies of fun"   The grinches who feel attention is being taken away from them and they don't have enough affect on all the other players for their "effort".

Struck no cord at all....just a birds of a feather kinda thingie.

Funny how you perceive players that want to have fun just like you do as almighty....much is lost in the translation on these boards.

Truth is, I simply noticed that you and Beetle share the same opinion...just didn't know you were so sensitive of a person as to find my statement a personal attack on you.

So you're telling me you die-hard furballers actually don't feel superior to a strat player somehow?

It sure seems that way.

Not at all....simply put, what difference does it make one way or another how a person plays a game? What's relevant, is can all who play enjoy themselves the way they choose to....does one map prohibit another from enjoying their time online?

I've played more years as a strat player than most in this game....you can strat on any map...you cannot furball on any map, yet the strat contingent seems driven to tell anyone who is not like minded to suffer or go to the DA...it's that attitude which deserves nothing short of a shake of the head and the wonderment of how folks with little or no furballing time can tell us how we should or should not play a game.

At any rate, this topic, not unlike any other on these boards, will never be resolved and the pissing will continue.

Knock yourself out.

It's not hard to find furballs on pizza, trinity.. Bigisles just sucks all around, i'll give you that. Just stop taking lazs's word for it, fly a bit farther than DA distances and at least TRY to find these fights you say don't exist

[lazs2]

rut... it's not that we think the noble furballer is superior in every way to the cowardly, back stabbing strat potato, sky accountant, unskilled,strat sissy... it is simply the way things are..

you can find furballs on pizza but it is luck.   A fun night on pizza would be finding one or two furballs that were close and kept you busy for an hour or two that you were logged on...  there is about a 1 in 10 chance of this happening.

Like I said....this will not be resolved....you're unaware of how we feel about the maps and are not interested in a solution other than to tell us to fly further, which brings us back to why I said what I did in the first place....the standard response of a strat guy is to tell us to fly further or to go to the DA.

I'm done.
