Small Maps – a Creeping Process. Hmmm…

Well,  I certainly dont fit the bill as the "Furball" Crowd.   I do make myself dizzy wizzing circles near the ground from time to time.  Heck,  I even enjoy it now and then.

I list myself to be more of a Sky Accountant, Have the Advantage,  Country General,  Tool Shed complex killing type of guy.   I try to use all styles of play,  except Im not much for GVs.


Yet, I can not seem to agree with you on Pizza vs Small Fields,  Pizza is not a good map for all types of play.   It is just plain boring.  I look for other things for the squad to do when Pizza is up.

Everyone in my squad dislikes Pizza as well.   We have a broad range of pilots,  Yet they all dread seeing it up.   a small group of 40 or so guys,  But that sampling is probably closer to the truth than what your selling.

No Sir aint buying any of it..  Is it possible that the Furball crowd is right??

As for Map rotation (thread)  I agree that each map should have equal time...

Week)
1) NdIsles
2) Trinity
3) Mindano
4) Big Isles
5) Uterus
6) FesterMA
7) Baltic
8) Pizza
9) Ozkanas

Each Map is up for a week, reguardless of resets.  Every Nine Weeks we could all have our favorite map.   Is that what you wanted Beetle?

I think I should bring my chair and cooler back to this thread for a while.

I'm sure Beet will agree. He's said many times in this thread all he's asking is that "the map rotation is balanced and fair."

I can go along with this system too.... so there. Problem solved.

Sounds good to me, I can take the good with the bad.

Now I'd like this opportunity being all of you are gathered to explain the snot all over me.

You see..

I have the reverse down. Have the con in view throughout the reverse the majority of time.

The problem I have, that I can't resolve is making adjustments to my flight path so that by the last view I have before the frontal view, the con is centered in it crossing my screen. So that when I switch to the frontal view he flys right into my sights...

We're talking alot of snot here fellas..

..and I'm stuffed up tonight

And Sax, youz guyz is da best.

Nice to end on a humourous note! Very soon (from the end of Saturday) there is to be an extended period of beet1e toodle-pippage. It's that trip to FNC I told you about, Mr. Toad. So I'll be out of your hair for about a week!

[Toad]

You're not in my hair Beet.

Like a lowly stagehand, I sort of enjoy running the spotlight as you interpretively dance across the stage of the AH BBS, exposing your derriere for one and all.

Bravo!

This has been our best yet!

What's this word "derriere"? I think you might have meant "derrière". That's OK, I was just being un mal à derrière.

[beet1e]

Last week we had a small map (baltic) from Sunday to Friday. Then came Big Isles. This week it's back to small maps. Again. Uterus. Even if it gets reset, another small map will take it's place.

Logged on just now - here's what I saw.



People whine about the "spread out front line" on Pizza. But this ^ is what happens when the front line is just a base or two. Gangbangs, numerical supremacy smashdowns, 25 % fuel porkage...

... but every cloud has a silver lining, in this case TWO silver linings.

• I've borrowed two DVDs from a friend - Shawshank Redemption & Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.
• My holiday starting Sunday means that I will miss small maps week! My timing is perfect!

This is the fault  of the player base and not necessarily that of the map.

HTC gave the MA players free will.  With it most choose to avoid having to fight another human like the plague.

I had always felt that HT's idea to have a "war" with base capture was a good idea to draw players away from their nests, to seek out and engage other players, was a good one.  Now, I think this "war" has become the very reason most players avoid other players or if they do they do so in a horde.  

The war is easier to win if you don't actually have to fight anybody.

So you logged on and only saw this specific portion of the map? Did you notice the large green bar at the bottom? I wonder what the rest of the map looked like. In what way does this picture help make your point?

I logged at about the same time as Beetle like he said it was a 2 options map :
be ganbanged on the north.
be ganbanger on the south.

nothing very sexy

(and no I didn't speak about the 25% fuel ... yet)

[lazs2]

furious... I believe that more people fight if the maps are early/mid war plane friendly.   that means closer fields... If you make the maps late war cherry picking, sky accountant friendly... you will get people doing the only thing they can do... hiding from each other and porking resourses in fast planes... Add some questionable "strat" and resupply features... a gaggle of newbies that "were somebody" somewhere else and voila!   timid unfun gameplay... well... unfun for those who enjoy a lot of action.

Tu as raison, mon ami!

Nuke - I displayed as much as the map clipboard would allow in one shot. Much of what is not shown here is fields which are not front line.

Mr. Toad! derriere is not in my Oxford English Dictionary. Websters is American. What would they know? Muhahahaha!

[MadMan]

you do NOT have to fly from front line bases... how do you think the rooks are always at 20 and 30k???    And the great thing about a small map... even from non-frontline bases it's still a shorter flight than on pizza to get to combat.
