Furballs and steamrollers still happen but if your looking for an honest fight you can still find one - just gotta provoke one.

Lead, don't follow.

i agree! i like the new map alot, there are a couple of good gv battle grounds on it other than the center island.  

but i also agree about the center island, hated it on the old island map and hate it on the new one too.

lag is medium for me:p

Oh .. the HORROR of it all !!!

All those pilots engaging in mindless Air to Air combat over furball island without any structure, discipline, or strateegery. Don't they know that there are endless toolsheds and fuel bunkers to be destroyed ?

What is this virtual world coming too ... :rolleyes:

8 out of 10 from the Canadian judge Fester.
Excellent effort. Like everyone else I never got a good look at much of it.  The ability of Fields to support each other seems very well thought out..The terrain is pretty. I had few lag issues that are not inherent to large fur balls.

Sneaking goons can be a real challenge with so many flanking fields.

Steve, what are you doing being frustrated looking for the girly men?  Just go for the ones out in the open.  Keep the girly men hidden in the closet.

Pfunk- you better get your package together, I spent the whole weekend furballing in the centre, saw a couple of lags but nothing I haven't seen on any other map.  Had no problems racking up 50 kills in a couple of hours in early warplanes.  I don't really care how much you think you know about computers; sounds more like you've gotten into an argument that you can't get out of.  

This map is fine, one of the best out there.  I think Fest learned and listened to the comments after his first map.  (First map was ok, fest, this one takes the cake)  There's a little something for everyone here, you just have to know where to find it.  Also the map is resetable, it's going to take a coordinated hoard to do it though.  Fur in the middle, hoard on the edges and still fields left over for isolated runs.  GV guys should also be happy.

BTW, did it reset last night?

I'm sorry, I know everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but Pfunk, you sure made a big butt out of yourself with this post.  Should've just called it "Fester flame" instead of the title you used.  You are right, it isn't YOUR job to make maps, it isn't YOUR job to improve gameplay, it isn't YOUR job to address the rants and whines of others...  But apparently it IS your job to put down the efforts of someone who is using his own time to take on these issues to make this game just a little bit better.  Why not be constructive, take some time and tell Fester exactly what is the matter with his map so that he can do something about it, which he already volunteered to do.  Personally, in my opinion, being drunk is no excuse for being an prettythang.  

It takes a baby to whine without taking on any actions, but a mature individual to understand the problems and try and do something about them.

Fester:   :aok   Way to go man.

PFunk:  :lol   You are a sad individual with some serious self-confidence issues.  If you don't like the map, take a week break and STFU.  Hope your next post has a more thought out response to it.

Fester ---- GREAT WHOPPIN DERN GOOD MAP

Hey besides the UFO's over the feild on the East side of the map, did you really hide a Macdonalds in the bottom of a crater?  I like the little phantom con dots that trail below and behind planes. Keeps me looking around more than usual.

All in all I've been having the best time with this map over all the other maps. I'm getting more kills landed in my P47D-11.

If PFunk wants real problems to whine about, then let him be an IT support engineer for the 3rd largest bank in the U.S..  Thousands of servers, hundreds of thousands of custmers, and he thinks this map sucks.  Shame on him.

HTC has given Fester a wonderful opportunity to display a unique tallent that I for one give Fester a 10 STAR rateing.:aok :aok :aok :aok :aok :aok :aok :aok :aok :aok

With every map Fester is perfecting his craft. Lets help him to create excellent maps, not rag on him, and PFunk has yet to submit his MAP of the AH CENTURY.

Fester you are doing everything RIGHT! I just wish your detractors were worth the time you put into the Aces Hi Community.

why would you be wanting to find "girly men"?

I can think of only one reason why anyone would be upset over hiding girly men
 Steve. Trying in your own subtle way to tell us something?

"not that there's anything wrong with that"

Just keep yer distance from me. I aint that way.:D

guess the difference is that maybe 50% of the BB people complain about pizza map and only 2 about festers... plus... channel one is filled with people who aren't ever on these boards complaining while pizza is up and I haven't seen one map complaint about festers online.

face it... people don't like the pizza map and they like festers.
