Well what next.

I thought AH1 burn rate was 1.5 or thereabouts. Apart form that try flying a plane where you can't take DTs or its Dt's or ord but not both.
Actually I think Leayme has hit it on the head, for admitting you fly with the hoard. A newbie with around a month is saying that it is not as much fun as AH1.
In fact last night I have never seen so many LA7s, something that wouldn't happen with 25% fuel. Most of the time late last night early this a.m. was 90% 1943 and onwards planeset. Hurris, Spit 1 etc as fast becoming things you will usually only see in the SEA. At least in AH1 we had a more rounded planeset, but I put this all down to the fuel situation.
Hell even 75% on a P51 with 2x burn rate goes a long way, more than can be said say for a Tiffy etc.
Mugzee you are absolutely correct this was done to appease the anti land grabbers, to hell with everyone else.
Unfortunately the two methods of gameplay can't co-exist in the same arena/game.
All I would like is a statement from Hi-Tech, if this is going totally furball as it appears to be, I'm taking my money somewhere else.

I think what needs to change is the down time on some things.

Hanger down time was adjusted WAY back when guys had figured how to shut down an entire front with a couple of high lancs.

That is no longer a serious problem.

Hanger time should go to 30 - 45 min.

But what we really need is a way to slow down/prevent resupply to a city. Or extend its rebuild time. Giving people a chance to capture.  Considering how much there is to kill at a city now compared to ah1, we need more time to deal with it.

Ideally resupply trains/convoys would have bridges that could be knocked out. Preventing resupply to that area for at least an hour.

I remember asking on the BBS some time back if the default settings in Offline mode (AH1) were the same as the MA in (AH1). The answer was Yes. Ahhhhh did a search..here is the link. Oh DEAR that was a long time back. Guess my memory is pretty good after all :D

 I remember seeing the "FuelBurnRateMult at 1.0000 many many times in the default settings while learning more about the Arena settings in AH1. So unless someone from HTC says different now.. Im sticking with the info i was given by skuzzy a while back.
If you start AH1 now(providing you kept it on your HDDD like i have)  and bring up Arena Settings , hit the default button and check Fuel Burn Rate Mult....yep...  it was 1.0..........:)

Offline fuel burn rate was different to Online Arena settings.

I thought it was 1.7 but I was told by several people that AH1 was 2.00

What has changed is the effect that porking has had on the NME.
I never porked unless the NME was Hoarding or when they had the overwhelming numbers over the other 2 countries and were using them in mass. Its simply a sound and necessary tactic at times. And it simply has been removed.
Will it change? Who knows. Should it? If a pole was taken and used of the entire player base... Youd see the 75% porkage back faster than you could say..... Kweassa typing a novel. :D But we will never know will we? HT doesnt operate on Poles.

Wax a dumb prettythang?  I beg to differ, upon meeting the smart prettythang of smart prettythanges, he is quick witted, light drinker :) and has one of the most amazing SA's in the game.  I'm very good SA wise, and there are times, I don't see something he does.

You fuel porkers are sad people, if that's what you pay almost $15 a mo. for, than enjoy, LMFAO. :aok

Wax, after my hiatus, I hope they bring back Trinity, TankTown runs in a Hellkitty need to be resumed. :p

resupply
« Reply #53 on: July 05, 2004, 09:07:27 AM »
ok  how  about  anything that  is  porked  needs  to  be resuplied   to  come  back  up.If  a  base  has fuel  porked  and  is  captured  it  needs  to  be resupplied   by  players  and  not   automaticaly.
  that  way  porking    works  but  also  has  to  be  redone.you  can  kill everything  but  you  ned  to  resupply it with players  doing the  resupply.
   say  some  one kills  the fighter hangers  then  captures the  base   in stead  of them  coming  up after  30 mins    make  them  be  resuplied.
   only  have  a  few  fighters  for that  base  and if  they  crash or are  damaged  untill  the  hangers  are  rebult  there  are  limited numbers avaible.
eg say  5  la7  5   spits  no  hangers  2  la7  crash  1  gets  shot  down  that  leaves  only 2  servicable  till  hangers come  back  then  get full  compliment.
   same with fuel instead  of  25  % for  fighter  and  25%  for  bomber  which  have  bigger  tanks  make  it  say  30  gallons  or  a  idea  like  that.
   just  my  2  pennies  worth

Try making sense next time.
You are correct in the literal sense.
He called me a liar. I never denied running porking missions.
I just stated that if it wasnt needed i didnt do it. Some times it is needed. really no confusion at all.
So actually as you say...Wax isnt a "Dumb prettythang" hes just being an prettythang Hole.
Now we have an HTC family tree started.. Arlo....prettythang Hole and now Wax.... prettythang Hole. Nice to meet yas Mr. Holes.

When testing fuel burn rates, test first at full throttle. If you are testing at a lower power setting you are testing 2 things at once.

We are looking into the mos.


HiTech

Now i stand corrected. I didnt realize they changed it from the time HT Told me that AH1 MA settings were the same as the AH1 "Offline Default settings"

So forget the "Math" after all!! My appoligies all round.

Hitech...care to tell us exactly what the Fuel burn changes are? And how they are implimented? IS the AH2 Current Burn Rate exactly the same as AH1 (Post 9-3-2003)
Fuel Burn Rate....x2 ? And if so...how does the new settings compensate for the obvious changes in flight range/time? TY

"Try making sense next time. "  

How many more posts are you gonna attempt on this, you already have eight.  What HAVEN'T you said in those eight that you couldn't in 1 or 2 genius?  The horse is dead, it will only twitch now.   When you actually grow a brain, you'll realize I knew you were gonna post, EXACTLY what you did.  It's you don't use your brain.  He isn't an prettythanghole, maybe you are.  Fuel porker.

So put your stick away and GO AWAY..Or are you going to "Hoard" the dead horse with the rest of us? :p

"He isn't an prettythanghole" Your right...hes just acting like one.
PS...Take a little time and read the Threads in the BBS that i replied to and or started..You will see that i dont have a  long track record of attacking anyone personally untill they attack me first. With the exception that a player is caught red handed at commiting un - honorable acts. (ie extreem gaming the game stuff) Like vulching theirs or a freinds "Shades" account and the likes. Then its no holds barred!
