ENY is CARP
« on: August 13, 2005, 11:34:28 PM »
Whats the deal with the ENY lately?  For the past 2 nights it seems that all that is available for the knights are hot air balloons and big wheels.. I understand if we are winning and all we have left to take are a small handfull of bases.  We had about 3 bases more than the other 2 countries and there was an ENY of 36.  I dont think that it should matter if we have more players online.  Will there ever be a happy medium to this madness?  I suggest that there be bigger maps so we are not fighting in a closet.  With a bigger map you can drop this whole ENY abortion clinic.  Or we can just be a bunch of carpet baggers and never call a country home.  Geeze!  :mad:

Hahahahaha, ok, you guys had almost as many people throughout the entire night as Rooks and Bishops combined and you think it's wrong you had an ENY handicap?!?! All that silly handicap meant from our perspective was we got to get vulched by Knight La5's instead of Knight La7's, either way we were going to get vulched, no doubt about it. I sure didn't see any Knights or Knight squadrons move to an under-manned team to improve arena gameplay balance. I just saw you guys steamrolling, vulching and gang-hording in your 30+ ENY rides...I don't care, we had fun in our own way too, but to say you don't deserve the ENY penalty because Knights only managed to have a few more bases than Rooks or Bish with those huge numbers is...well...STUPID!

Fly the 109F and you will never know when eny is in effect.
I never know unless someone wh.....complains about it.

If we had the kinda numbers Zazen is saying wether its 100 Dwe..Spitfires or 100 109s. Whats the difference? a horde is a horde is a horde

My bird of choice is usually the A6Mb, so I've never felt the effect.  If I did, though, I would switch teams.  Heck, I left from the Bishops to the Rooks because it always seemed like our ENY was in the 20s and I want a big crowd so I didn't stick out.  I wanted to kill some people in the air first, and 1-1 when you are a n00b doesn't work.  

Then again, neither does the 4v1 or 8v1 that happened tonight and HAS been happening every night.

I hardly ever come on in the night anymore, if I can help it because of this.  Frankly, I don't check the numbers; I look at the bars.  When I see a red bar two sectors long at every frontline Rook base with a tiny green, I just log after a few deaths.  It's getting so that I don't even say goodbye to squaddies anymore, I just log in disgust at my lack of skill (being unable to get off the ground when chased by 12 Knights/Bishops or being unable to leave from the spawn, due to shotgun-firing indestructible Pzs).

Eny would be great if it automatically switched pilots who belonged to no squadron to the under-staffed countries at loggin.  That way the pilot would be "forced" to fly for the other side and realize that this game is about fun, rather than seeing who can land the most kills in one sortie in a Tiger when you eny is 40 and you get about -30 perks for doing it.

Jesus, sorry that I type so much and have such little to say!  :rofl

Lol, im sure I seen a knit Spad flying around last night :) .

Seriously though you guys realize you can earn more than reset perkies in a few flights if you swap and fly for the underdogs.
Not unusual to get 15-20 perk flights, without landing lol. All while still having mega cheap perky stuff.
