EW - 60

LW1 -238
LW2 -59

Looks like ~ 47% can get along just fine without LW.

And 60 on a small map is plenty.... if players are looking for a fight.

If they're hiding from a fight...well, speaks for itself as to gameplay.


Last night I've seen the about same number but it was :

-early war horde

-mid war horde

-probably late war horde but I didn't check ...

I'm unlucky ???

The reply was essentially that he had nothing better to do, which was a sad commentary on his state of affairs in itself.

Sad thing is, I would agree :cry

Yup, I can occassionally spout off (who hasn't), not denying it. But it's rare.

According to my very perceptive brain and incredibly analytical nature, all them complaints are basically a big sham.

 Nothing's essentially changed in the gameplay in all arenas. The same horde crap, same land grab, same dweeby guys, and same 'gaming the game'. The only difference is since the arenas have been apart, people can't do all that same shi* in their favorite planes. 'Woops, too much horde here, ENY kicks up, no more Lgay for you, sucker.'
 
 So basically, in the heart of it all, all the whines and complaints actually have nothing to do with the arena format or gameplay. It's just another way of saying, "Waaaah, I can't fly my Lgay".

 
 Damn, I'm good.

I am not saying that a portion of the community doesn't have a problem.

Thus I do not need to open my eyes as they are already open. And even with em closed it is hard not to see all the whining on the BBS.

No, indeed a portion of the community is having a problem, it is just not my problem, and IMO a silly problem.

The Old style is gone, it isn't coming back. As it is now it is more emphasis on fighting rather then finding a large map and milkrunning every undefended field you can find.

I have been here for quite some time and this his, imo, brought us one step closer to the good old days.

The problem with the EWA is that it does not atract enough people and will continue to atract less and less people every day.  The reason is that most people fight the war.  That means thay have to destroy towns, FHs, VHs, and every single building on a base before capture.  Not needed for the capture, but thats what they do.  

The problem is that without the heavy buffs and the cannon monsters for efficient vulching, taking a base can be very hard.  The EWA even though it is more fun to fight in those planes, will eventually meet the fate of the CT ro AA arena.  A couple of squads will buy the rights to them :lol and wont allow anyone else to stay there.  Eventually, it will be empty just like the CT.  Whats so different between the CT and the EWA anyway?

Then, the MWA will follow.  At the end, we will have 3,4, or 5 LWA arenas.  Only thing acomplished will be that the number of people in each arena will be limited to 250 or what ever the number is.  That may be good in a way.

Eventualy, :rofl

I forgot to mention the people that play for score too.  Very hard to make it out alive in a P40 when a 109F or a Spit is on your tail.  So, guess where they will end up.  In the LWA so that they can use the speed and the cannons of the LW planes.

It sucks...I have never felt so utterly board and apathetic about being an arena, as I have over the past couple weeks...


damn, guess the old saying IS true "ya cant please all the people ALL the time!!""

funny how LOTS of people log on and can find a fight fairly easily. I have been pretty busy lately yet EVERYTIME i log in and go to ANY of the arena's i can always find several fights.
maybe its the time of day your logging on thats the problem.
besides your post is rather contradictery in the 1st part you state you log in find a couple of fight that you WIN and in the 2nd part you say your utterly bored ect. soooo whats the issue really? your finding fights, your winning fights but, after 1 or 2 your bored and log off, honestly i dont see what HT can do about this. Sounds more like your burnt out or possibly you need to start loosing some of these fights. Ofcourse then that opens up a whole other can of worms:cry
Crap now I gotta redo my cool sig.....crap!!! I cant remeber how to do it all !!!!!

Wild...I will admit, most of my complaining is because of being totally burnt out, and I know the only solution to this is taking a 2 or 3 week break from the game...But since the new arena's, the monster hoards and double digit ENY isnt making things any better for me personally...turns me off even more

My comment about Air Warrior relates to the fact that ,if given a chance for an "old style" MA, the EWA & MWA would probably become orphan arenas, as AvA is now. I personally am having a blast learning the EWA planes & tactics- finding out how much I really suck-I thought it was a little, it's actually a lot. When I get in LWA it seems to be kind of like fighter town. The guys I feel for are the "tank warriors"- not much room for them th have a 6o player tank town.
