NAY!!!!!!     If you  want an absolute FT go to the DA.    

  I personally don't bomb FT except when the rooks seem to want to VULCH and take the Bish base, then they deserve all the bombs I can take over there.


  Any way this is a null post HT will never allow such an untouchable FT/TT to exsist in the MA, I believe he has said so, not in these words but similar ones.

Im so sick of people comparing the DA to a FT. DA is for DUELING. ALL THE PLANES ARE ENABLED. THERE ARE NO PERKS. The layout is insane...its really not made for massive furballs.

Only because no one has stepped up and made a new DA map or even a massive number of players going in there and trying it out. If all the planes are enabled then why do you need perks or even worry about them? I for one would be willing to join a hundred or so others in there to see how the DA works out as a fighter arena.

In another game I played a long time ago (Fighter Ace 2) they had a Fighters Arena with air starts that was immensely popular with 5 bases to fly from and you randomly spawned over different ones so it kept it fluid. They had this with "Arcade" mode and "Full Real" mode as well. The arcade mode was the most popular but I don't think I ever saw less than 75 people in the full real room at one time during peak hours.

just griefers.:huh


 Ah-Ha...another of those " agree with me or else" people. I don't bomb TT or FT ( I think that's the made up definition of a griefer on here ). I have taken fighters into TT because great furballs develop at low-level  on a couple maps & it suits my favorite plane also because I hate losing gv's to bombs & heavy low-level planes are easy targets for pay-back.

"Any way this is a null post HT will never allow such an untouchable FT/TT to exsist in the MA, I believe he has said so, not in these words but similar ones."

 I think HT's position on this point has been made clear as stated above & it's the only " 1 good reason  " I need to say....Nay. It's my opinion & if you don't like it...don't read a thread that is likely to have peoples individual opinions posted.:aok

I think any future maps should have both a TT and FT incorporated in them somewhere. And out of the way somewhere, surrounded by 30k mtns. Also make them a tad smaller. As far as it taking people away from the MA capture thing, those type of players usually arent all that interested in that part of the game anyway, and other than shooting a few planes down, usually dont carry ord or participate in the capture.

Do you really want that to happen?  It would effect people that have nothing to do with the furballer vs retard war, and could not care less about it.

That would be, in effect, a seperate arena which the furbyallers say they don't want. They want to play in the MA without interference from guys playing in the MA.

That, and a seperate furball arena would be dead in a week.


Oh, Nay!


i dont got enough perkies as it is and i like upen my lancs to kill 1 dang t 34 or wirble its fun droping 42 bombs

If they do a FT you will fun into one serious problem. People will CAP the field and vulch. In nights where one side has the greater normally rooks lately I dont know about yall but I wouldnt go there. Now if they did something like make the AAA indestructable and more dealdy I would consider it.

what? where does it say agree or else?

i am very interested to learn what it is that people
are so afraid will happen to the MA if fightertown were to exist.

if hitechs position on this issue were to change in favor of fightertown
would your position change too?

AYE:aok

Let's face it - it sucks to get evicted from TT or FT by a countries Fun Police.

 Well; I posted that as a response to the "then your just griefers" remark.  I apologize if you were offended, but; just becasue I don't want what has been outlined does not mean that I am a griefer ( made up internet slang is a burr under my saddle too but that's a different thread ). Fighter town does exist, if you don't want buffs bombing down the hangars, run a c.a.p. it's boring I know...I don't like to climb forever & fly c.a.p. either but that's the closest thing to a cure. I have a great idea...if realism is what some of the people are after & some of the other people want un-bombable gv's & structures....how about Hi-Tech installing a random wheather generation code? It's not always sunny in real life. MYSELF...I like the game o.k. pretty much the way it is; I would like to see more models to play with ( Panther Tanks ) & more maps & any changes to make the game more like being there in real life are cool with me; but then again if HTC decides they aren't ever going to change another thing, that's fine too.

Fighter Town and Tank Town on each map.  These "towns" to be unreachable by those spawning outside the towns.  Create a slightly modified version of current fields (vehicle base and airfield) in which there is no ordnance, fuel, bomber hangers or troops.  Put these modified fields in their respective towns.  That doesn't separate out anyone and it would allow those who wish it to battle to their hearts content without being griefed by those who simply get off on griefing or who are trying to pad their scores.

I don't believe I've ever seen HT write he's opposed to this idea.  Nor has anyone referenced a thread in which he posts against this idea and I haven't seen anyone quote him as being against this idea.  What I have seen is he's opposed to a different arena, which this would not be.

i do realize now that i could have used a better choice of words
for the above and i apologize if this annoyed u....
guess i had just finished reading the "kill FT" post
and thought that sounded like "griefing" (sorry for the term
couldnt think of one at moment to replace it)

Myself i am a base capture kinda guy (for the most part)
i really love all aspects of this game and cant see how a fightown/tanktown
will hinder the enjoyment of the game.

no hard feelings here Brenjen
and thank you for pointing out how my language could have been
offensive to others.

btw i like your weather idea:aok

it wouldn't hurt MA at all and would soon be used by very few as it would get boring very quick, or at least often and most would hop back into the normal MA fray...quickly or often. That's what she said..:D

What would hurt is the time it would take to be designed instead of those resources being used to get ToD done!

Bet those WW2 Aces wish they could have called a no bombers rule!:lol :lol
