is there any chance you can force yourself to ignore the bad parts and enjoy something fun? its sad to see a much loved vet like yourself hating the game so much.
I don't hate the game bat. If I did I would just quit and move on to the rest of the stuff I love to do.
I do still enjoy this game when I am lucky enough to be on when the fighting and maps are good. The other times I will up and play much like the rest, being forced to via map and game play styles, and fly till I get bored. Where as in FT I log off mentally and physically (reaction wise) drained and satisfied.
The funny thing is, when I get my fill of fighter town, granted it take a while lol, I will sometimes go and join the guys taking bases or flying cap etc. That's the thing and why I don't want to limit game play as some would twist my post into.
As for the DA, that would be fun. I suck in there and need the work as much as any so I'm in, you too Dichotomy. The only place I feel I have any clue is dodgeing 3 to 5 guys and reversals, so if you guys are interested in that you can join me in the MA or just fly wing if you see me on. Either way it would be fun.
I don't agree with your delivery sometimes
You have to take my delivery with a grain of salt and a good sense of humor. A lot of what I write is because it makes me laugh as I get my point across. That's all, I don't mean that much disrespect as much as I mean to be fun or poke some fun. And it is a great barometer for the guys that take this stuff too seriously. IMH that's what real life is for.
In the end this and even these boards are just a game.
