I think most here have heard that the guys doing the most complaining tho are the ones who claim it has destroyed their idea of "community"
Now, your complaint used to be that you fly overseas hours so you never had many to fly with in any case... now less... this is valid and I can see your point but now you seem to have morphed into.... you can't fly these massive multiplayer missunzzzz. If you never could then you can't really miss em eh?
It is not that we all want to date each other but.... a smaller arena makes people polite.... just as everyone waves and smiles at each other in a small town and every large city is a filthy slum filled with frieghtened unfriedly people....The more sardines you pack in the less they interact.
I would suggest that you misssunzzz guys would be happy with an unlimited arena where you could only sign onto one side and the other 2 sides were Ai.

i play this game 24/7..... some days i will play P.M, some days i will fly A.M (US peak), and whatever.... the only period i DONT fly here is 6-11am.
because of this i never had much issue with finding/getting to know people, and i also see both aspects of the game.
Before change we had 60-120people off peak (12-7pm) in one arena, which was, i would agree a GOOD mix for a few fights (not furballs, i hate them), or GV battles and kept me happy with that part of the game... After about 11pm the numbers would stedly rise upto 600+ish and it was the war game i liked.
Im not one to join one of those 40 fighters attacking one base, but not protecting the goon mission guys.. I like the buff, escort or anti buff missions that used to happen all the time on maps like Trinity.
The old way i had both methods of game play and BOTH i liked.
Since change 2, at offpeak LW1 is almost always full, and all the others are empty, there isnt really a game anymore. Now ive asked nicely and stopped whining like a baby like i did on the first day of the 2nd change, but nothing seems to be happening to fix this.
I asked for the rolling cap or whatever it was called to be tweaked so it STARTS at 60 (60-80-120-180-etc)... ie lower, not higher like you would expect me to want. This would make 2, accessable 60-80 player arenas during offpeak, PERFECT. However unless ht is deleting my posts he doesnt comment on the calm thought out ones. But then being the only game like this in the world, he can do what he wants (like microsoft). If you dont like the way HT have messed the game up you have to quit flying WWII planes and find another hobby.
DONT mention WWIIOL.... while the ground fights are great, the FM is absolutely TERRIBLE.
