Why is the flight ladder so slow/dead?
« on: June 20, 2006, 07:08:08 PM »
Just wondering why flightladder.com doesn't seem to be used by alot of people. I think it would be awesome to get some actual 1vs1 and squad vs squad ladder fights goin... just doesnt seem like there is anyone to fight really. 4vs4 squad fights would be awesome :)

Maybe people don't know about it? I am sure there has to be folks who would want to do something a little more competative than land grab! :)

Every once in a while someone like yourself will post here asking about it in an attempt to stir up some activity there. Honestly, IMPO, this is a completely different game than it was 2-3 years ago when the dueling ladder was going strong. From what I've seen in the MA, most of the players on line there are out to capture bases. (there's nothing wrong with it, just an observation) Alot of the better sticks in the game who were strong on the ladder, have moved on as well. It all seemed to happen once AH2 came out.

I signed up for it a few months ago, but things got so hectic with the baby being born and work, that I wasn't able to follow through with it. I want to do it, but I don't think I will/can until this winter when things slow down at work.

I signed up for it a few months back, but so few people were active i've just not signed on it since. I'm more than willing to get on it if more people show interest.

ive noticed that too... once AH2 came out we lost alot of old timer player base and the game has just slowed down a bit..

I tried it a couple of times but found my memory left people waiting. Im terrible with appointments. Maybe a flightl adder night would be better and guys could go in and do their fights all together each week.

The good pilots that are left don't care about being the best, so they don't need a fight ladder.  The ones that suck but do care about being the best, can only achieve their goal in the MA.
