Host Change Thurs 10/19

I like it. I love it. I think arenas need to be smaller still. 150 players max. Maybe have three LW arenas. The old saying goes,"less is more".  Arena "health" is what it is all about. Nice people playing a fun game!  Get rid of all that frigging chaos, madman stuff. It suks. TY hightech.

Then again, I don't think it would be bad to have one big arena maybe two nights a week. Maybe?

Ladies and gentlemen of HiTech, I for one think yall are doing a fine job. With any changes comes growing pains. I for one hope the best.. and you can keep getting my 14 bucks a month while you perfect a great game.

OK now... can I request more 38 parts, I keep losing them... no idea where... just pop and I'm missing something :aok

This change by HTC is helping me change arenas.  Sometimes I do try the other arenas but leave due to lack of numbers.

HTC, thank you for your efforts to improve the gameplay.

You are correct. Anybody who thinks otherwise is not wanted around these parts. It's a sad thing but that's how the wind blows on this here bbs.

I like the new format so much that I quit

Since this is sort of a venting thread.....  

I deleted my account because I don't like the new LW/ leapfrog format.  I've been signed up with AH2 for a little over a month and was seriously addicted.  I played everynight, learning from the "furball" or participating in the "massive missions" to gain knowledge about the game, but hey what do I know about bad habbits - I played everyday!?  

How are you to defend fields when everyone is so thinned out?  What about "check 6" if you're flying alone?  I did a HQ raid all by myself in the LW without any resistance...  That was BOREING!    

I guess I joined up at the wrong time?  

First week - 1MA or similar format (can't remember now)
Second week - 3MA's (confusing to a new guy)
1 month later - capped volumes on LW

How can anyone want to pay $15.00 for something that is changed without your concent or warning?  I understand that HTC created the game and owns the rights, but come on....  Keep the customers happy and you'll have customers.  I guess that is how things are in today's world?

If you put an ounce of thought into it, maybe they are implementing changes to the MA in preparation for CT?  there will be plenty of challenging AI buildings to outwit when that is released.

Seems like it went from One Game of Chess to four Games of Checkers

There is no "feel" of friendly rivalry between countries anymore,
cause it doesnt really matter

And Its difficult to fly with friends and squadies

Its you Game HT, so do what ya like

But this reminds me of what the game down the hall did about 4 years ago

I'm just wondering how it's possible to fix a bad idea with a worse one.
I Think I'm starting to have............. OH nevermind. Like it'll matter.
If I post, it's ignored. If I email, it's never responded too. If I call, it just rings. Thumbs up on the customer support:aok
Now try missing a payment though, customer support will be right on it.

It's a Friday night here and it's my first ever post.  But I must admit I'm ticked off.

So can I put in my 5 pennyworth for your overseas clients.

Down here in OZ we usually play at a time when the U S of A sleeps.  Generally there are under 100 players across all arenas, often as low as 50.

It could get pretty boring in the old days flying around trying to find something to fight.  

Now, we're spread across 4 arenas.  We won't be shooting each other down, we'll huddle for companiship.

Fine, have three arenas, but don't split these arenas further if, say, there are under 100 flyers on line.

It's only the flying with my squad that keeps me here.  If all we're going to be doing is practicing formation flying 'cos ther's no-one aound to fight - well, why bother.

I could be wrong but if I remember correctly HT WANTS people to "spill out" of LW.

The idea is if you try something different you will grow to like it.  Then the EW LW become better "seeds" for NEW players. THEN the LW caps go up .. when there is a regular player base that calls EW and MW home .

with just the MA a new player comes in and sees just a bunch of flaming, HOing spitla dweebs.:D  then gets bored and quitts.


with an EW and MW a new player gets to see a variety of flaming, HOing dweebs!

:rofl

when the EW and MW fill in a little more it will be more fun .. but I love the new setup... and our squad has no problem getting together.. we go to where we can all get in(OMG) that does mean I am forced to fly LW sometimes, but you make sacrifices for the fun of your friends.
