You can't be this confused....I've stated openly all along, I want you strat guys to strat till ya can't stand it any longer...to tell me I want others to fly like me is a lie....plain and simple....I've never said that.

You make the statement that nothing about a map prohibits fun....well, I don't agree with that.....if that were true, then why do so many rue the Pizza map? Fact is, it's simply your opinion.

Interesting how you cuddle me like a first year student with the remark about how someday I'll realize....I've played this game and WB's and AWDOS over 12 years every way there is to play....I can jabo, drive around and kill stuff, float in boats and kill stuff, drop bombs and actually hit my target....you've missed my point.

I fly AH because of my friends in my squad and the many others which I've met personally or have known online for years....if I relied only on the game, I would have been gone long ago....still...for me and others to wish for an enviroment which is friendly to our interests, without limiting the interests of others, really shouldn't bother you like it does....unless of course you don't like us or have some other silly misconception of who we are or what we want, which seems to be the case.

Hurry up Dale!!!

N' another thing! Does that take into account how much i sit idle in the tower? I have a habit of alt-tabbing to get stuff taken care of, or leaving AH running while i'm not even in the room.. Does the k/h take that into account?

Or how well i don't do dogfighting in planes like the boston? New planes i'm trying out?

no..  time in tower is not included in any stats.

why don't you take that gamey dogbuffing boston to the DA?

Can't you just go in the DA and pretend people care about you landing your kills?

This whole debate has gotten so polarized that neither side is making any sense.  That includes you rude.

This thread isn't about the vulnerability of fuel bunkers and the fact that they are too impactive... it's about believing a certain set of people are spoiling things for another.  What a bunch of ****ing whining.  It's no wonder people don't get heard since everyone is plugging their ears to avoid the screaching noise.

If these threads could start discussing the real issue and continue on... maybe something might get resolved.  But it won't because instantly someone will show up and claim someone else doesn't know what they are talking about and then cite their stats as proof.... while making fun of them for being stat-centric in the same breath.

Oh well... you'll continue to insist threads like his are the solution... and text like what I'm seeing on channel 1 is the solution.  I'll sit back and say "no wonder" when someone complains they aren't having any fun.

deja... if your solution is to do nothing then you have no solution nor any right to complain about people complaining.   Are you saying that we don't have the right to complain about a lopsided feature in a game we pay to play?   if you are saying that you don't have any opinion and don't want to hear anyone elses then.... why do you even read these threads?

rutt..... people care if I land kills?

Yeh, MiniD, it's gone on so long it's just become personal. People are prolly more interested in flaming eachother than logically discussing these things.. oh well.

furballing is about getting your name in lights?  is that what you think?   you are spending all your time being jealous of something we don't even care much about?

you are looking at it from your perspective not ours....   I think most of us land to not give someone a kill that they don't deserve...  if there were no "you have been captured" and some loser get credit for a kill.... I would probly ditch every time to save time.   Maybe try to land a really shot up plane once in a while tho just for the challenge.

Jealousy? pfff, i couldn't care less who you kill while they aren't watching in a furball. It  doesn't affect or concern me in the least, but you go do what you think is fun, and i'll do what i think is fun. Have an issue with what i do? Whine to HTC to make what i do ineffectual.

I'm sorry lazs, could you show me where this thread was complaining about a lopsided feature?  It sure seems to be aimed at people.  I don't expect you to see the difference lazs.  You've proven yourself unwilling to do anything but blame people for game issues with virtually every breath you take.   Nothing better for promoting discussion than putting everyone on the defensive.

The folks who destroy fuel tanks and auger at front line bases are not playing the game strategically.

They are simply the Pork 'N Auger Look at me types.

Strat players will destroy the refinery and then go after the fuel at each field to really decimate it, but whats the point?

In the same amount of time, or less, one could mount an offensive and capture the damn field intact!

The strat in AH is broken, and has been for a long time. It does not make sense to even bother hitting a strat target when it's easier to capture the field.

And as for furballers, theres nothing wrong with admiting you like to see your name in lights. Everyone likes some recognition. Sure, a good solid one on one battle is the heart of the dogfight, but landing the kills and catching the WTGs from countrymates is a nice touch of gravy.

Now someone look up my stats before I feel left out.
