OK.....I'm gonna say it once and for all......If I get Kicked out of here so be it......

The arena split was iniciated because 4 cheap servers fit HT's wallet better than the huge server he had that could handle all of us......since then he has saved up enough money to boost the graphics in each arena.....he thinks this is what we want......lol....the larger maps cannot be supported with the higher graphics on these cheap servers so we have to endure this crappy map rotation until his wallet is fat enough to upgrade to what we want..........I hope......or mabye he will just keep Preying on the Noobs....taking their money since they Know no better.


I think that the arena split is fine....but the servers should be able to handle all players in one arena.....ENY is out of control late at night when the numbers are small, 25 20 10 players and high country has 20 ENY????????what is that........plus the maps are all played out.....If the server can't support a large map....get a better one. We all have to cut our graphics in here unless we are playin with a $10,000 alienware computer...use server strength to support more people and bigger maps.

just want to ad a footnote here.....ENY needs improvment...players stagnant in the tower for some time shouldn't matter.....tanks and planes should have seperate calculations too.

You have problems with fps in Ah?
I have a radeon 9200 (5 year old), 1800 mhz athlon, and have 30-60 fps at all time on mid settings.And that is with 1024 texture size and 1280x1024 res.
HT didn't do it because of servers, servers they use can support over 1000 players i heard.HE did it because game was going in the wrong way.

IMO that is...

I agree that ENY needs a bit a tweaking, but mostly I am pleased at the new changes. My box, though I did build it myself, cost me about 800$(monitor not included), and I have broken 300fps reported with ctrl+i. Though I do miss some of the older and larger maps, this is outshadowed by the greatly increased 1vs1 fights I am getting, addition of the P47N, Spit8/16(though I haven't gotten a handle on them at all), and the increase in base ack.

Overall I must say that all in all I think HTC is doing a good job working with what they have. At least now I can find a non-horde, non-vulch fight with relative ease.

But on the subject of ENY, as stated before, I do agree.
Taking an enemy on the battlefield is like a hawk taking a bird. Even though it enters into the midst of a thousand of them, it gives no attention to any bird than the one it first marked.

And to the server, graphics is irrelvant too. The only place where graphics matter is on the client's side. The server does not generate any images.
And large or small map, the distance I can see (and my card has to render) is always the same.

You realize that the point of limiting a country to certain (lesser) planes is to promote switching sides - or at least mitigating the stampede effect of one country having a huge number advantage?

Having just returned to the game after a short break Im excited by the changes,my fps have never been better and it plays as smooth as a ewes bottom :aok (when sheared of course) not too fond of ENY,maybe balance sides by forcing squadless players to play for the side with less numbers,would promote squads lol,I dont have a great pc either,just get shot down too much....sigh:cry

Being restricted to 20 or even 25 ENY shouldn't cause a decent stick any troubles.

That still leaves you with all (or almost all?) of the 109s... early 190s (the 190A8 is absolutely vicious in decent hands) and that's just Luftwaffe aircraft.

As was stated above, if it's that much of a problem....switch countries. Otherwise, grab a Gustav and get some kills.
