You Furbs couldn't organize a boys club fund raising car wash even with a year of planning... Your entire existence is built around killing each other for fun and sport, team work is a theory you long gave up on! Of course you could use the funds raised at the car wash to pay some tollshed killing squad to do it for you!

No offense...but Id have to agree with Skyrock. When do you plan to fight eachother? You could start off the night doing this. But a deep raid would take a few minutes to do.

Then even if you all auger, you would have very little time before ord and troops would be available somewhere. So you'd have to stop and do it all over again.

You'd be amazed at how boring it can be. Im of the opinion that folks that only want to furball, wouldnt have alot of fun doing this for long. And worst of all, you will end up with every guy in here who likes to bomb, suddenly bombing every FH on the front. You see, the bombers only have to worry about the front line FHs to be a pain, while the fighters would have to hit very deep, every base to affect the bomber guys.

The issue is not those that want to capture bases or bomb strat targets, the issue that those that actively try and prevent a segment of the player base from engaging in activities these Tool Shedders don't want them doing, i.e. Furballing.  It's really not that hard of an issue to grasp and it really surprises me that most of those just can't seem to fathom something so simple.

Bombing the FHs in the furball area of the Donut map does nothing other than grief part of the player base.  It's that simple.

Now why do Tool Shedders engage in this activity?  Well, other than being complete and utter stunninghunks, they are bitter because they believe they must win "THE WAR" and try to discourage any sort of game play that detracts from winning "THE WAR".  


ack-ack


Actually I beleive they do it because they can and not due to any specific desire to ruin things for the furballers.
Well for some yea maybe. but not for most.
 
Donut map as I said it was a pretty lame thing to do.
The other maps well look at tank town. you alway have those in the tank towns that have to go for the capture.

So long as the bases can be captured . people will try to capture them.

the rest of the maps I explained in another thread my observations about how furballs happen.

In those cases  they arent out to specifically ruin it for furballers but are only doing what they were trying to do in the first place that started the furball. Capture the base.
 
That is why that outside of the donut map where I am in complete agreement.
With the rest of the maps I am completely unsympothetic to the furballers complaints. As a the Furball is nothing more then part of the evolution of the basecapture attempt.

On the Donut map is an entirely different story. The FT area is obvious was specifically designed for the furballers. and IMO it was wrong for what happened to have happened.

But so long as those bases remain easy to capture there will be some that go for it.
I also made suggestions to make them harder to capture.
Move the towns up high on a cliff and closely surround each of them with strat targets that shoot back both with puffy and laser ack. Also have a friendly GV spawn area right into the town.

secondly. make sure the troops at all those bases at the donut map FT remain porked.
Again making the town harder to capture. Remember getting goons to 17-20 K is time consuming. If the measures I have mentioned are put into effect it is going ot take a super amount of effort to co ordinate the type of an attack that will make it captureable.
Would take a combination of
 the VH's being down. the Strat ack being down. the town ack being down. the town itself being down and a perfect drop of troops on the town all at the same time.
Not an easy task even for a horde

On another note I've seen it mentioned that troops be porked at all the forward feilds.
Often they are that way now.

To be effective for any kind of real length of time, you have to pork the troops 2-4 bases deep or the bases can be resupplied relitively quickly by a determined group of individuals in M3s

yeah .... what Ghosth said.

morph... what you suggest is the third or fourth most boring thing a person could do in this game...

first would be to actually play the strat game to "win the war" second would be to defend against the strat players and third would probly be GV's

It is a huge sacrafice for those who would play to have fun and are not yourop  ean or gay or for those of us who own a joystick and maybe rudders and a throttle..

The only advantage to this whole idea is that it will be a wakeup slap in the face to the 90% of the strat girls in the game who don't even know this board exists.

The sacrafice in fun may be made up by the squeals from these mouse wielders as they see their hawiian vacation and 25 (yes TWENTY FIVE) huge perk points chances evoporate...

Their squeals will be like the music of the liberals after kerrie lost..

The attention called to the basic problem of unbalance between air combat and skilless strat might be useful tho...

It might work.

Maybe so but you got the first wrong.

Having no FH's is the first.

It warms my hart to still see folks pissin and moaning about Monday night's FT fun.  I think every time that map comes into rotation it should happen.  Yes furballing is fun, but taking bases for perkis is much better.  The thing more fun and entertaining is vulching and cherrypicking(especially a smoking 262 on final).

try and stop me

taking bases for perks is much better? How?

I get 6-7, or 10 kills in a 38 and that's well over 25 perks.:aok

That's why we just like to fight. All that 'war' crap is boring and repetitive beyond belief. No it's not fun for us that's why we don't do it.

Yet straters still can't get the concept that us fighting each other doesn't cost them anything. They can bomb stuff all night away from the furball.

WOW!!!  25 perk points!  I'm in.  Where's the nearest bomber hangar.  Yo! Fire up the engines, I'ma comin'.

You know, instead of all this crap talk and evil plotting, we might hold a big stick and a carrot over everyone's head.

OK, I'll start it off.  "I as a dedicated GV'er who enjoys Tank Town, and a somewhat less dedicated teamwork-oriented Win-The-War type, I hereby promise NOT to take big 2000 pounders up contineously and drop them all day long on Furball-Land hangars... SO LONG AS no one ups bombers over Tank Town nor tries to capture the supporting vehicle bases."
