So that, especially in  low populated arenas or in off peak times, one large squad would land, ENY drops, then up a low ENY plane mission...

Umm,, no. What happens when they up that horde mission of La7s and P-51s.
Those get all upped at once, it would be an in flight work around.



Ohh and for glassjaw. Thanks for another eny whine thread. It proves that ENY works.:aok

I think it would be a good thing to boot people who are inactive for 10 minutes or something like that.  Not only for ENY but for arena caps as well.  That said, if you don't want to deal with eny you have solutions available to you.  ENY works fine, maybe if you keep getting hit with it you'll get mad enough to actually change teams.  Also keep in mind, for every single base that your horde army can't defend, there are probably 2-3 they are completely over running.  don't get mad at ENY because your country can't allocate it's resources well enough, get mad at your generals and hoarders.

there are some excellent planes in the 15-25 category:aok

the reason the people are in the tower is because --

1)they are waiting for eny to go down(this makes me laugh)

2)if you almost always fly the same thing it may take some time to choose a different one (this is understandable) multiply this time number of people picking a new ride at a given time= lots of folks not in flight


3) they already went to bed but if their side wins it will be the only way they will ever get 25 perks


for those  first 2 reasons I dont think basing eny on in flight only would work.

The first time I couldn't fly a f6f I was mad .. but it opened me up to the f4u1 and the k61 .. roll with it..open your horizons! if eny gets to be 30 switch sides or arenas

That's what the Ostie is for.  Learn to love it!  You'll have the skies cleared in no time.  ENY works as intended-end of transmission.

And this isn't even necessary. You will still get your perks, even if not online at the moment of reset.

I've never gotten my perks after I've logged off right before a reset...

ENY does eem to work at times, but at others it's just pointless. I remember flying one night as a knight and we had an ENY of 25. Normally I don't care but the thing was we only had 21 pilots in  the air to the Bish 45ish and the rook 50ish. we had nearly 70 players just sitting in the tower, it was insane. with ENY at 25 we couldn't up a decent bomber to take out hangers and ords to slow down the other sides and we got pushed way back to the uncapturables. It was around 2 am so I think that alot of players just went to bed without logging off.

Odd. I did.

Back in the day when I was new, I  did thoroughy track my perk status ("only 1.6 more, and I can fly that 163") and Reset Perks were about the only ones I got at that time (n00b in LA-7).

That was when I noticed at log-on that I had suddenly 25 perks per category more than I had when leaving the arena...

As long as you have been 12hours in the country which won the war, you will get them.

Once in a while I still get unexpected perks from EW/MW arena that way.

Like when ENY is at 29 and you can't even fly a CV plane (Other then B5N and stuff)
