i think we need to move away from comparing an online game to real war.  obviously in war you want every advantage there is.  we are talking life and death.  this is an online game.  there is no life and death....the only purpose for it's being is the exact opposite of war.....to have fun.  games generally run by having the best team win.  if you can't have fun without having large number advantage, and can't devise a strategy to compete fairly, then i might submit you are not a strat guy, you are just something else.


Where did that I state that the only way to win the war is to have overwhelming numbers?  I don't see it.  OK so this no longer a war simulation and now  it's an arcade game.   Is that your response?.  Some of you wanna-be folks appear to have been programmed to believe that just because a person is in a "mega-squad" that they only fly with hordes, and that is just not the truth.  I rarely fly with numbers and when I do, it's because it's with friends that I like to fly with.  Personally, I like the Mid War arena and it just doesn't have numbers and I would be the last person to state that I want people forced to fly there!  You pay a fee to play as you like within the rules that the provider has established and that is all that I care about, with the exception that I will pay as long as I can play with my friends in an environment that is playable.

All the Best...

where did those days go?   :(



Yeah, thats a very good question. Only that i do not see HT at fault to where those times have gone to. The community has shifted, slowly but steadily.
21 is only half the truth.

Hitech,
Sounds very interesting I also am willing to try it.  I will see how it effects our Squad tonight and going to try and get 20 of the 68th to fly together somewhere?

Hitech,
Question ,Is there still a long wait to switch to another country or you can switch at any time?:aok

68ko: Country change time is 1 hour.

If you are in the waiting queue, the change time is ignored.

Ahh, the days of a Cz Mossie raid on the Az scum's spit factory.:cool:


OH jesh!!! I had forgotten all about the Spit factory. Nothing can compare the unadulterated fun of watching gaggles of dweebs racing to protect their precious Spit factory!!

HiTech, can we please have a spit factory?!?! And maybe an LA factory if it ain't to much to ask for? I would pay double for the the fun of denying the dweeb access to his crack!!

So when trying to get a squad together somewhere, some members may switch immediately, but others may have to wait 1 hour to switch after their mates if they were already playing?... or do they also have to try getting into the queue somewhere else to be able to switch?
What if the queue ceases to exist with a few people switching?

Seems a bit confusing, but I suppose it will be more clear when we see it.

sometimes we would take a fully maned B17 (death star) to the spit factory, sometimes we made it in and sometimes we even made it back out.:D

i think i know what would quit the whining.

1 MA  
large map


space for everyone to do what they want.

no friction.

no attrition.

numbers would be even again.( total up all arenas numbers and there almost always equal give or take 10 players.)

if ch.200 was so bad, why not just ditch it?:huh

Why are you guys so hung up on this idea of switching? You didn't know **** about the country you started out with, and you didn't know most of the people on it. Somehow, despite this overwhelming adversity, you met people, and formed squads, and had fun. Why can't you do this now?

 because the luftwaffe didnt kiss the RAF and USAF pilots?
