If you're a Rook or Bish I hope I ruin your fun. You're my little digital enemy.. on my screen to entertain me via combat simulation... but my main purpose, usually, is to help my imiginary country win the map, which again for the slower in the bunch is the OBJECTIVE of this game. There are times I have fun with no regard to winning the war, my friends and I sit here doing our best to laugh and have fun; which is the point of gaming. The last thing on my mind is if the Rooks or Bish are having a good time.


I used to think this whole "my way" vagina fest was a transparent (attempting to be covert) tactic by other countries to steer game play away from base capture and into one sides strength.. maybe one side has more practiced stick twisters... but it''s literally a few vocal dorks who are not getting thier way and must stomp up and down on thier solied diaper for attention... trying to set the standard for what "cool combat" is, and what isn't.

Well ladies this is a combat sim, remember that. Combat is not fair, not nice, there's no "cool" way to crush your enemy and live... often the uglier the better as long as the mission gets accomplished. This isn't BK where you get things your way (as my SDI used to say).

But the "my way" vagina posse has a clear agenda... one of these squads has a web page where they boast; they dont bomb or take bases.. they twist thier sticks, or as they like to say "fight", and that's it. I'm sure they think that's cool combat, F the team and the games objective, we do what we want.. and so will you or we'll cry about it.

They'd like nothing more than to have everyone playing thier style so they can easily dominate & masterbate to thier huge accomplishment of the day.

Just maybe if some of you digital warriors started thinking more about what combat is, you'd "get it".

But hey, it's your money and if you want to play a team game and not be a team player, nobody can say that's right or wrong..

So wth free speech you can whine through your fingers until they bleed.. it's not going to change a thing about what a COMBAT sim is supposed to be.

Did you read the post you responded to? I don't have a  problem with land grab dweebs. If that's what they enjoy in the game then more power to them. What I do have a problem with are the dumb****s who's only enjoyment is to bomb the FHs at a field sporting a furball or the VHs at tank town. They are not "winning the war", and more often then not they actually slow down base capture. There are plenty of less defended fields for them to go grab. Whatever **** they spew out here make no mistake, their only goal is to ruin the fun of as many people as possible. You're an example of this retarded 13 year old approach to gaming, by your own admission. Go back to CS where you belong.

I'm pretty new to the game, but I sure get tired of furballers telling everyone else how they should play the game. No bombing, no  BnZ'n, no using an aircrafts strengths unless it's a turnfighter. Everyone is supposed to turn because you want us to?

Get over it dude.

Woof

[DipStick]

You guys try the CT this week. It's alot of fun without the wait. No porked bases, etc... Quick fights. Dedalos was there he can tell you.

I think I know why they call marines "jar-heads" now, it's because those like x0847Marine's brains would fit in a pimento jar.

Note: I didn't say they would fill it.

Come on, DS - he has a valid point, and you know it. SkyWolf too. What they said has needed to be said for a long time.

His only point could be summed up as "Pot meet Kettle".

He lost it on the first sentence:

Taking bases is the objective of this silly game, not an excuse.

ANYTIME someone tries to define the purpose of this game to a single datapoint they are wrong. Taking bases is not THE objective of this game. Neither is A2A/G2G or killing things that can't shoot back. In fact this game existed for quite some time without base capture.

The only point of the game is to have fun, some folks can have fun with other people, some can have fun despite other people, still others have their fun by trying to prevent other people from having theirs. I think it is clear where Xmarine gets his jollies.

Maybe taking bases is not the objective of the game - for YOU. But, as has already been established, you elite T&B self proclaimed "aces" are in a minority in this debate. If that were not true, then you wouldn't all be whining about the horde/pork-n-auger gameplay. You'd just be able to kill the small element of players who you perceive as tards. But you can't, so you whine here instead.

HTC would certainly not agree with your assessment of the objective of this game. Once again -

Capturing territory through the use of air, land and sea power is the objective of Aces High. - HTC, in the AH help website.

 So what makes you think you're so special that you think YOU can tell HTC what is the objective of THEIR game which THEY wrote? Having read your post, I think you have added even more weight to x847Marine's post.

[Schaden]

It's official BK are the biggest whiners in the game!!

[Redd]

What they said has needed to be said for a long time. [/B]

Even more importantly , what drives a grown man to post on a game BBS , about a game he stopped playing over a year ago    


The basic gameplay (flying around, shooting at planes, and trying to blow them up)  hasn't changed for me in many years ,  but I still manage to find some fun doing it.  Simple folk we aussies  

[dedalos]

I think the complain is that when there is no base capture as the objective but just a bunch of guys fighting ( I know it may be hard for you to believe that this can happen), there is no reason for a bunch of low level B17s to come in and take the FHs down.  Whats the point?  If they don't do it to ruin other peopls fun then how come they never hit the BHs?

I guess some people can see only their side of things and everything else is considered a whine

[beet1e]

LOL Redd! I'm doing what many others are doing - waiting for TOD. Not my fault that I'm still waiting.

Dedalos

Whats the point? If they don't do it to ruin other peopls fun then how come they never hit the BHs?

They're doing what everyone else is trying to do - stop the enemy from flying. Sure thing, the suicide crap I could do without - but that could be addressed by adequate spacing of the bases, instead of having them 2 minutes apart.

BTW dedalos, forgive me if I've asked you this before, but what town do you live in? I lived in Mount Prospect for about a year.

SkyWolf I'm not trying to insult you here but if you are fairly new as you say, you may want to try turning more often and you'd probably suprise yourself.

I'd be willing to go to the DA with you and take up a P47 or F6F or FW190, etc. against your Spit, Zeke, or Niki in a knife-fight, and although I'm sure you'd probably get me more often than not, I'm pretty confident I could suprise you too.

I just would hate to see you get sucked into the theory that whenever you run into a plane that can turn tighter than you, you should only BnZ.  I think it would lead to a boring career for the both of us

Try reading before you post. I said there are multiple objectives, not a SINGLE objective unless perhaps the need to have fun. I would say that HTC considers the fun it's customers have to be high priority, that just doesn't read well with marketing copy.

>>I know, I just thought it was funny.  I did not mean anything by it. I am ususally the first to up from a capped field. err, try to up <<

Hehe, I took no offense, I just thought it curious, I have seen media types who do that sort of thing

No, you simply capitalised "THE". And it IS the objective. The other fun components come in the course of achieving that objective. Or they would if they could.
