The other night was in fights with jaxxo...very cordial on both sides...towards the end he made a comment that struck me.  he said "i see you are getting tired of the horde and are furballing. good for you."

As i thought about that i remebered my 10 year flight sim history.

circa 1996 a buddy at a party tells me about a ww2 flight sim air warrior. i download it that night...

i of course only fly a spit and for almost 6 months get about 10 kills.  cant figure out why....one day im 1v1 with a guy named Cajnn and i accidentally drop flaps..he takes a shot that wrecks them in down position...suddenly im outlooping him.  for next 6 months im killing alot of folks 1v1 but have to be right on their 6 to do it.  I join a small squad Birds of Prey cause of the name.  still have yet to land..cant do it. squaddies sit on runway and try to talk me in....no luck...

One day a year later i download game at work...shhhh..at lunch i up a flak and i think the game is broken..everything moving too fast.  litle research shows that there is somethign called frame rates.  work is 30..home is like 5.  i get a new computer and suddenly i can see tracers!! i can shoot at angles!! I CAN LAND!!!

i start flying the p38 and learn the flaps...i am now winning dueling contests and 2v2 ladders with my buddy Onyx.  About this time Air warrior allows base taking and BZ get smashed.  sqaud grows as guys that want to help country join...cycle thru all AW versions and now we at aces high.

Point is i did the fiter thing and it gets old alone...whoever undestands the flap and trim setting s for their plane wins...it is more like chess then a game...set series of maneuvers to get adv...in here if you know how to work flaps and a little trim...you should win everytime in da.

No you need both hordes and fiters to keep this game interesting.  i have done both and neither alone are satisfying.  thre is always a furbal but the truth is it is probably its not one you want to be in if you care about dying.  if you type too much and guys get a kick out of seeing you flamed so you dont want to die..so be it.  In air warrior...the argument was between "altmonkeys" and "b-n-zers" and "knnife fighters"...

if all base taking disappeared tomorrow we would have another group to jump on in here.

Someone must speak the lang of truth.

You want big furballs everywhere ?

Fix the point system because its wrong.

Why someone with bombs and rockets in attack mode to
engage in furballs when he expect nothing in air stats ?

Why a furballer in fighter mode help in a field attack when he have nothing
to take ? he even loose points from ammo loss even if he hits target ;)

Correct the point system in a mixed one.

 In the same fly (no fighter or attack modes),killing planes you take points in
air stats killing ground targets and gvs you take points in attack stats.

Like this a pilot after he make his duty to his country (and taking points) he
turns to the closer furball ( taking points And Kills ) and not returning to his base cause he has nothing to take in a furball exept to eat dust and even loose his attack points ;)

Also the existing point system offer nothing to Heroic Pilots who fight until the End taking 5-6 or 10 kills who Noone see and have no points to take,
because they finally die, and their victories become lost in the darkness,
out of memory.

How you expect Furballs when the point system make suckers and give  
nothing to the the pilots who like only to fight ?

These are the Real Furballers.

Give them points for every Kill Landed Or Not. Report Every kill as it happens
as before some years and bring them up in the bright world of glory.
Like this you will dissapear timid pilots and runners and more  

You Will See AH become a huge Furball Arena.

ps (ofcourse give them something  more if they land them but not big difference).

SYSTEM used to report every kill as it happend and that was fine for a couple hundered people in the arena but when we started getting 600+ in the arena the system reports was a constant scroll and you couldent even read the radio cause it went by so fast

  HMM Hey HT put the system message back the way it was and have it play on 200
