Hello, HTC Why fuel can't be porked under 75%???

[ghi]

I'm more base killer  than fighter.     I don't  like  to lose the war, and if possible to win.                                            
      That's how i get the fun  from  this game for 15$/month.         Soo, fuel can't be porked under 75%?? !!
          How to slow down (300+) rooks sundays evenings??!!
      Soo, ww2's planes only, not WW2's tactics??!!
     Ploiesti's rafineries Romania, (oil supplier for germans), were bombed by Usaf (1943 -1945).
       Fuel should be possible to go down, pork to 0%, disabled, like amo, troops.
       If i'm porker today, i'm outnumbered, if u have more players defend your fuel.

I hereby nominate the above as quite possibly the most disturbing post in the history of AH general discussion.

Hmm, the only defense I can think of against fuel porkers would be a good shot in a field gun or an LTAR or two.  You can climb to 15k and suicide the fuel offline too

I play for various reasons; denying others a chance to fly is not one of them.

There has been countless whines about fuel porking, many thought that it hurt the game. They logged on, only to find all front line bases porked, they logged off.

You have to adjust to maybe hitting FH's instead. On small fields 1 buff form. can easily take out all 3 FH's in 1 run.

  Remember all those whine posts by guys complaining about being told how to play the game? Posts like these:

• If I bring ordinance to a field, I am gonna drop it. I don't care about "your" war. The little napoleans are the absolute worst aspect of the GAME.
• When someone starts telling what to do in the game, I just ask for his credit card number. If he wants to control what I do, he can pay my account. Otherwise, its my money, its my choice.

Well guess what: It cuts both ways. I'm as disappointed as you are to see that someone actually prefers simply to pork, rather than fight and/or make a more realistic combat scenario.

But there's nothing you or I or anyone can do about it. The community made its bed, and now it has to lie in it. The "It's my $14.95" mantra applies whether you are a fighter or a porker. We're all just going to have to learn to accept it.

You want to stop the hoard moving forward just hit all surrounding Barracks, done.

Porking bases is (or was) an important strategy, taking out the enemy's ability to up with fuel WAS a key part of the game. Sorry guys, but yes porking is (or was) a real strategy and I have to agree with the original post, taking away the ability to pork a base's fuel down right sucks. How realistic is having unlimited fuel? What the hell is the point of having bombers or attack sorties now, or hitting the fuel depots? Whining about the fuel being porked instead of players catering to your dogfighting obsession is pathetic. If i go through the trouble of carrying ords to a base, I kinda enjoyed knowing that I had actually done some damage to the enemy and their ability to reup. Please get rid of the stupid 75% fuel thing, or give us unlimited ammo as well, would be just as realistic. And don't be jerks, my god somebody says they don't like something and you guys eat them alive. Like your opinions, post em, but don't trash something you obviously can't grasp. Funny thing is some of you guys are the same one touting realism in other posts. How realistic is unlimited undamagable fuel resources or fighter hangars that reup moments after they go down? How realistic is it to expect people that pay the same 15 bucks you do to want to cater to your dogfighting when perhaps they enjoy bombing strategic targets? Your telling me that all I have to enjoy hitting with my ords now is either gv's or troops at bases to be a real pilot like you guys?

GHI, your right man, unlimited fuel sucks.

Bettele I accept his statement, not only did I accept it, I nominated it for an award...

HeHE..You think any non bishop agree with this post? lol

Porking fuel stops people from being ably to FLY. This is a FLIGHT simulation. The original concept was to fly and fight.

The fuel multiplier has been raised to 2X, if they allow fuel to be porked to 25%, in some cases there will be no flying at all.

Want to stop people from taking bases, pork troops.

Want to stop them from tearing up your bases, pork ordinance.

Want to stop them from bombing, pork their bomber hangars.

Want to stop them from swarming GV's like cockroaches, pork their GV hangar.

There are still plenty of ways to stop a horde without porking fuel.

Learn new tricks.

Besides, how realistic is it that fuel is stored in the same place on every similar base, obvious and unprotected from attack from the air, and easy to hit?

Nevermind how realistic it is to have three suicidal idiots pork fuel and auger at every base for ten sectors, especially the same three suicidal idiots. Who never fight, they just dive in, pork the fuel, and auger.

Those "idiots" you refer to just might be Pigs On The Wing Special Ops...

What you mean like the Ammo bunkers, Troops, Fighter Hangars, and everything else on bases?
