AH2 has a "Fighter Only" arena?
« on: June 10, 2004, 06:57:41 PM »
AH2 Needs a “Fighter Town” of sorts.
IMO There is an ever-increasing need to separate the land grabbers from the “fighter only” types. There is a clear split along the lines of the players of AH. And I think could be one of the main sources of the Attitude that is displayed on ch1 in the MA. The “Fighter” only players feel that the “Land grabbers” are ruining the game play by porking fuel, capturing bases, flying in hordes and such. They have a point.
The “fighter types” constantly harass the “Land Grabbers”. Who while flying around to find a “Fair Fight” “Good Fight” “Fun Fight” The fighter types have learned that laying in wait for the Heavy-laden fighters over the target (Their base) can score multiple easy kills on the Dive Bombing fighters.
I truly feel that a “Fighter Only” arena is a must for Aces High future.
The two links below are examples of how the community feels about the issues. I have read countless posts and replies on these very issues. I mean. When this issue comes it rolls like wildfire. players are very passionate about this issue.

 The current CT Arena that AH has is kind of the same thing. But numbers are usally low due to the limited/ scenario plane set.
But i believe an arena that included the entire fighter and perhaps some of the attack planeset, would draw a sizeable player base of those guys that complain about the base grab thingy. added In this "Fighter Arena"..there are 6 bases total. 3 bases per country. There are only 2 countries. There are two opposing bases as close as 10 miles apart. Then two more like some 15 miles apart. finally 2 more opposing bases at 25 miles apart. (These are for the Strato fighters)  
Ground objects like Hangers and Fuel Bunkers and so on, are untouchable. Base Capture is OFFand Field ACK are VERY Accurate making vulching almost non existant. Git the idea?
And maybe...i say maybe...the head butting would stop.
 So…do we need a “Fighter Only” arena?
And I wonder if HT would ever consider such a proposal?

MugZ are you saying we shouldnt defend a base when it comes time to do so? Or when the need arises?

I have a hard time thinking your being serious here. Im reluctant to comment on most due to the fact this looks more like a troll than anything else.

But I'll take a chance here and only go so far as to say I disagree with what you have said.

Being a "Fighter Type" maybe I just don't get it but... Wouldn't land grabbing without Fighters/Fighting be about as much fun as watching grass grow?

Maybe it isn’t that your not getting it. Maybe it’s that your being facetious.
Of course there will be Fighter AC in the “Land Grab” Arena. Cept maybe the 262 and 163 :D

Not at all.  As part of the "Land grabber" arena...nothing would change. But if you are one of the whiners claiming that the "Land Grabbers" are killing your fuel. You coud go to an arena where there are no Land grabbing/porking capabilities. It would be an arena with the entire Fighter and Attacker planeset. It would be like an arena we had in Airwarrior called "Fighter Town". There were a few bases Like 4 or 6....two countries.... And fight's galore!!! :)

If an idea like this were to be taken seriously by HTC, I'd be happy. Honestly, tho, there wouldn't be many people in "fightertown" at any given time, IMO.

Slo..i agree totaly
But the community has become clearly divided. And the Proposal would create a place for the so called "Good Fights" that unlike the CT...would include the entire Fighter/ Attacker planeset.

indeed Mugzeee, but least you would know who was all talk, and who was straight up as far as BS talking goes, but then again we pretty much can figure that out now can't we?

easy to spot a tard! :D

I read an article/webpage once recently that I thought was pretty good. It had to do with unwritten rules, ethics.

To me this is probably the biggest problem in Aces High, there is no Honor , No morals, No ethicS!

and it really has nothing to do with AH it is about the way this world has evolved in the past 14 years....... and the advent of  gamey gamers and cheat codes and  Quake! :D

I do really hate to see  cute name calling get started though.

ah I am not calling names really, "tard" is a person that is constantly babbling on channel 1, claims to be all mighty, whines when he is shot down, etc.....

that was my meaning, nothing more.

and I don't think er look at it as land grabbers and  fighter guys, I look at it as everyone has their own choice as to what they like to do, participate in....it's your $14.95 spendi it the best way you can get the most satisfaction out of it
