We finally started beating him up and he quit comming around, but the kid would sit there by himself in a corner and act like the world was comming to an end because nobody would play with him, it never even occured to that kid to get off his arse and join the others, he wanted us to come to him and there was no other way around it.
Grow up. I know it's hard sometimes, but your mommas should have taught you a long long time ago that sometimes you have to share your toys. If you don't share, then nobody is going to want to play with you. Some basice pre-school socialization skills here. Getting mad because nobody wants to play your game your way should tell you alot about yourself. It definately tells us something.
There's nothing wrong with the game as it was before it became a catering service, if you can't find a fight in AH, then that's pathetic. If you find yourself chasing dots around, hey, you're the one chasing the dots around. Don't like having your base taken undefended, defend the damned thing or take your spanking like a man. Don't like bombers dive bombing your base, hell shoot them down. Don't like the way somebody is playing the game, then play yahoo checkers or something.
I'm sick of people bellyaching about the game, only to find the game gets changed to soothe their aching bellies. The ack is ridiculous now, wasn't that enough for you guys? Troops can't be porked without a friggin army of heavy jabos now, was that enough? Towns have ack now, was that enough? Just an example of how ridiculous it has gotten, people whined and carried on about hoardes, so we got ENY to 'balance' it out, and then you see the very same people in the MA whinning and carrying on about the lack of coordination and teamwork. One's man's hoarde is another man's teamwork my deluded friends.
Having to hit designated and predetermined bases is about as entertaining as Super Mario Brothers.


Must say this is a keeper. It is defiantly a 10.

Dos not take his own advise.

In reality I should delete it for flame bait. But just can't bring my self to , because then would just give him another reason to tell us how we are so screwed up and don't even listen to him, when at the same time he is complaining that we some time listen to people.

Um Twitchy?  The only one complaining about the new set up is you.  We 'furballers' as you describe us were doing all those things you describe without complaint in the new set up.  The great irony to me is that the first base capture was a mission set up by one of those guys labeled a furballer, Stang.

The only crying seems to be from the guys who want to be able to run the end around against little or no opposition.

It's healthy that everyone has strong opinions about this game. This is the very reason the game is one of the best available. We play our differences in the arenas good and bad. It makes the game worth coming back to.

My CO Nomde hates the new change. But last night he went along with us and BlueKitty posted a 56th mission for bombers, jabos, and fighter cover. We rolled 3 bases in a row. HiTech served us lemons, 56th made damned good lemonaid. Everyone who joined had a great time. We also had excellent support from GV's following the "Blue Brick Road". Total combined effort against strategic targets.

You may no longer be able to sneak feilds, but we could have used NOE sneaks to all the defenders airfeilds within one sector to kill fighter hangers and vehical hangers. I seem to remember WW2 it was SOP to send medium bombers and jabo ahead of raids to suppres enemy assets near the targets.

Is there any chance we can get 11 more pages to this thread about how to make the best, or at the least how to take advantage of this new arena style? I cannot beleive a bunch of grown men lack the imagination or wearwithal to dominate anything HiTech throws at them by this point in their obvious and talented careers as AH Uber Players.

Oh really? Was it the Ridicul-ack? Was it the inability to pork fuel? Was it the Huge Ack Ridden towns? Was it the Elimination of Night Time? Was it the ENY? Was it the New Hoarde preventing arenas? Was it the addition of god knows how many troops at a base? What was it that stuck it to the furballers to the point where they felt they had to be vinidcated? You're out of your mind, this game has been bent and shaped to please you guys to the point where you can't even fly over an enemy field anymore without star wars looking ack.

Great points buster, but then if all this action was a result of the change how is it that HT gave you lemons, when in fact he has given you a better way to play.

 Box formations , lazer guided bomb drop accuracy , all buff guns tied together, dive bombing heavy bombers, no wind  for bomb drift , F3 mode .... ect ect ect.

But please continue whine . I'll get some sharp cheddar ready.

Maybe you haven't noticed but Slapshot is NOT one of the ones "crying" in this thread. In fact except for you, 1Boner, and Overlag there have been very few here crying at all.

I don't know you Titchy, aside from the obvious impressions you are making here via your posts, I never recall running into you in-game over all these years (not saying I never have I just don't recognize your name) I went to look at the scores page and see what kinds of planes you fly, and get a non-emotional impression of "how you play". Then I noticed the recent tour when you flew 47 sorties as a fighter and got 2 kills, and have not recently (I only looked at the last few tours) been able to break above 2 or 3 deaths per kill. Having looked at empirical data it seems to me that, with all due respect, the only "way to play this game" that you have a specific talent for is dying.

Then only one crying around here, and at decibel levels approaching that of a NASCAR track, is you.

Just goes to show how myopic you are ... I do it all ... check my November tour stats ... but I do prefer air-to-air combat over all things offered in AH.

Mind you, I have ignored all aspects prior to the arena changes and field changes ... cause base taking was laughable and embarrassing at best. Most attempts that I watched were nothing but fuster clucks who's only real intention was to vulch and get attaboys for landing 8 vulch kills.

How much time do you spend watching the map vs flying?





  (using my best laurie voice)     depends guppy.  obviously if you're in a dogfight you don,t get a chance to check the map too much!!  lol  

but on the way to a fight or flying a bomber etc. i check it alot.

if i can,t get to the base myself, i,ll let those who can know about it.

if it is a strategically important base---i will auger  (very rare)

if nobody gets to the base and we lose it? no big deal, we will fight for it later.

So, even you guys telling us to defend, don't actually defend your bases?

Is this "Comedic Irony Friday" or what?
