Good work, good setup, but….

Make the dar unporkable and work everywhere. Spending a lot of time flying around looking for a fight, historical but not fun

With dar on you can fly off alone and someone will come out after you resulting in a nice little private fight. (Fun)

Easier to harass milkers. (Much fun)

Dar good for fighters. (fun guys)

No dar good for pickers and porkers (lame guys)

Please set the Hardness and ack levels to normal. Maybe even fuel burn a notch higher to .7.
Also how about downtimes of around 20-30 min, no fun doing a bombing mission to watch stuff pop right back up.
Troops about 15 to 20+ to make it realistic.

are you still going to remove the 109F and not have the 109G2 in place leaving the axis with just the A5 for four days?

Personally I do think progression is a bit slow between day 7 and 13.... only one plane added per side in almost a week...

I don't think you have the "spirit" of the AvA in mind.  The war took time, they are simulating a theater of war over a few weeks that lasted years.  Some of the most important fighting took place during this "down time" between the start of the war and the flood of new planes as research and development hits its stride.

I do know that but still its a game and its an Arena that is rejuvenating....

What Im worried is that if its "the same" (plane set wise) over too long of a period that people might find it less attractive.

Id rather see the "casual" pilot like my self who gets a few days of flight time here and there miss one or two planes then having the more dedicated players get boored of the same setup being in there for too long.

The plane set still changes faster then if it were the usual one week CT setup. Four days without 109s  does seem  strange I admit.
