I personaly agree with you and don't country hop, but the philosophy behind the system is sound. No balancing measures would be much worse than what HT has in place.

IMO of course.

I'm not a greedy guy, I'd just like to fly something with more
than 2 fifty cal on it

ENY isn't working at all. It still needs to be higher. Last night was an atrocity. At one point, I saw a perk multiplier of 3.24, and later 163s were a whopping 10 perks. Base defense was never so much fun, even though the horde of 38Gs and 110Cs, and hurricanes wasn't much of an improvement over 38Ls, 110Gs, and Spits.

I'll not make any friends here, but if you fly for one country, and one country only, even to the point of upsetting arena balance (and therefore gameplay for all), and you don't like the ENY restriction: just STFU. You're the reason it's implemented.

O yes, 163s are fun, need perks only not skills to kick aces and horde, would be nice to have them enabled on all bases, when #s are low,

If this eny thing has to be there, at least grey out the planes not available, instead of having to waste time chasing planes in the hanger as the eny goes up, grey'm out.

perked stuff should always be available no matter what the eny is.

ENY,... booooooo hisssssss boooooo hissssss hissssss

LMAO!

Lets see...
My squad been Knight since the day we found AH, and were Cz since the inception of AW, but you think we should change sides?!
Established squads should not be accused of "upsetting the balance" if they've been there all along. PERIOD! So.......

(resisting the urge to flame your twisted logic) ENY isn't working, and won't ever work. It's a great idea that failed in practice. If you want a suggestion. How about send the lonewolves to the country with lowest numbers on login if the disparity is at some predetermined extreme level. Not that they are any less important, but if they aren't in a squad then they must not have a particular attachment to any certain people...just a passing thought. Perhaps hub has a better idea since he's thought this through so thoroughly(spelling?).

So hub, if we've been where we are for this long, and this issue is so recently resurfaced, how am I and those like me to blame?..huh?....thought so. Makes no sense to me either. So STFU!:aok

What right does a so called lifer skwad member have to be in a given country over a lone wolf? Everyone pays $14.95, no one has more rights to anything than anyone else.

Chess piece loyalty, hah.

GooseAW · « **Reply #22 on:** August 09, 2005, 08:30:24 PM »

As I said...not that they are less important, but maybe they have less connection with any group as they are not in a squad.

I hear your criticism of a briefly /not at all thought through suggestion but I strangely don't see you posting a solution...hmmm

edit: I could care less about the country numbers personally as Knights have been on both sides of it many times! But..again..ENY is a failed attempt at appeasing a bunch o freakin whiners! WWIIonline has gone by the wayside because of limiting equipment, along with several other control factors placed on the paying players. Don't want that to happen here.

ENY is lame, and I'll personally fly an FM2 or a P40 all day long!...

Give us your ideas oh mighty ones......

Well gee golly, I'm sorry Goose, I didn't realize your heads would explode if you had to do something to contribute the gameplay for the rest of the community. How silly of me. In all honesty, I used to have this misguided perception that I was somehow adding something the game by not moving around and flying with the different folks on different countries. Thankfully, I'm not that stupid anymore.

ENY should be turned up even higher. It does a little to help, which is better than nothing, and certainly better than some of the other options they might have taken. However, I still support additional measures because the "I shouldn't be penalized for my loyalty" bull**** is still prevalent.

You don't want my ideas. You just wanted to pop in, ***** about being kept out of your niki and jet, and then give us your powerful and moving story of your unswerving loyalty. Great. I'm still not moved enough to think the overall quality of gameplay for everyone else is any less important.

Turn ENY up.

I happen to be in a squad now but being a lone wolf makes absoloutly no difference to my choice of country affiliation. I'm one of those loyalists, I was C'z in AW and I've been Rook since I've been here. I will not accept being dumped into a country not of my choice, I will just log off. I don't think that would help the ENY dilema at all.
If I can't fly a Pony or Spit, I'll climb in a 190 A5, it's a combo of both anyway, but I will not accept being dumped in some other country.

Seems to me that you guys stick together as you bunny hop
through the countries. Who are you to tell me I can't choose
who I like to fly with because it disturbs YOUR sense of balance.

Of course, heaven forbid anyone dare to challenge the wisdom
of the self appointed monitors of the MA. Get over yourselves
already.

FiLtH · « **Reply #28 on:** August 10, 2005, 12:33:03 AM »

ENY doesnt bother me. Its far more complicated to switch sides, and stuff than it is to just grab a low class plane. If one side has alot of people, there is quality in numbers. No matter what their flying. And like what was said..its only an hour or two at most.

Don't bother me one bit, your the one that made this whine thread. Like you said, I'll "bunny hop" where I want and fly what I want. I think it's funny that people whine about not being able to fly their favorite plane b/c they refuse to move from the hording side, to the undermanned side be it do to loyalty or the free perks. While your whining about ENY, I'm flyin a 163 for 10 perkies. And yes, we do stick together don't we? If you saw hubs hiney you'd understand. So challenge away at my wisdom till your blue in the face, I'll just have a good laugh and ignore you as I try to get over my virtual ego and work on my virtual loyalty. It's only a game that really proves nothing in real life after all. Except Morph, he uses this game to get the chickies.

Oh, and thanks for taking the bait:aok Like I care what you guys do with your time/money on this GAME lololol. So until next time ~~pixels!~~
