new idea for LWs?

[whels]

now that HT has finally seperated scores for EW MW LW.

how about  in LW arenas, set it up so that so that no base
captures can happen unless there are great then 50 pilots
logged into that LW arena.

right now, in early morning, the milkers run the bases in LWs,
and can really screw up the map before the main group
of pilots log in morning/afternoon.

Get rid of non capturable bases as it was before. Squads will be making elaborate attack plans now !!  WTG HT!!

NOT a good idea whels.  You would then be taking away part of the game for a portion of the player base.  Those 'off peak' players are playing at their peak times, remember this game is played internationally.  How much fun would you have if you logged in at 9pm on Friday night and saw a message saying, "sorry, due to time settings base captures will not be enabled for 3 more hours"

so allow the "fun of few" to ruin the fun of many. cant count how many times I've logged in to a new  or even old map, that went from  pretty
even sides, to 1 or both enemies capture us down to a few bases left. only because they took bases while very very few people where logged into
the arena over night.

Actually off peak players are not that much affected.
Why? Because one LW arena has always more than 50 players, even during lowest off-peak times.

Basically the "50" limit would protect only one LW arena, which has usually less than 20 players at that time.

So those <50 players get less for thier money just because thye dont log the same hours as the american majority?


wake up, theres mroe than one continent with AH members.

I have fun every time I die in there

[gpwurzel]

Simplest answer Whels.....if you log on and see the milk runners milking....up a plane and stop em........make em work for it.....increase your kills to their detriment....

I have to completly agree with Laurie.

Why would HTC limit the fun of one group due to the fact that they play at off peak (U.S.) times.  Honestly, whels, if it really bothers you that much than quit your current job and find one with a different time sceduale.  Then you can defend your chess peice to your hearts content against the evil milkrunners that have made you cry so much.

That's nonsense.
I am an offpeak player. When I log on there is always only one LW arena in use, and this one has never less than 70 players, so we offpeakers would  still get the same opportunity to capture bases as the american players.

Yes lets forget they pay their money and are entitled to their fun as well.

The only person that really seems to have a problem with it is u.

Sounds more like, take away the fun of others for the enjoyment of u??

Dude half the fun when i log on taking all our bases back.

Lusche I see what your saying. However, lets forget about the number "50" as I think he just used it as an example.  From whels' post it sounds like he's just upset because the other teams take all the bases and he has to try and recapture them.  So if they implimented his suggestion for the 50 player no base capture and the fields were still getting taken then he would ask for the rule to be changed to 70 people, then to 80 (you see where I'm going with this?) untill the arena looked they way he wanted it to look when he logs in.

His post is nothing more than " I want things my way, not matter whose fun it ruins "

It gives them something to do when they log in

Which early morning time zone?  That's funny.  You got a 24 hour, always running, clock.

NY time.  I play all arenas, around the clock.  3 AM crowd undoes what the 8 PM crowd the previous day accomplished, to be re-written again with the 8 AM Senior crowd.  Can't get that base at 10 AM?  Bet I can at 2 AM and most likely by myself and in LW or any of the others.

Milk runners?  You mean bombers?  Not true at all.  Everything goes on.

I especially like the LW guys saying just the noobs and dweebs hangout to EW & MW.  These guys should go on over and see what really goes on.  A lot of very good players are to EW & MW.

Yesterday morning, Rooks, 8 AM crowd, we were into real estate captures in the northern area of the 1st LW map.  We used everything.  Granted, everybody else was sleeping or off to work.

Once, the California crew go to beddy-bye, it gets rather fun with just the nocturnal crew that can't sleep until about noontime here in NY.

I'd like to see the perk points and squad affiliation separate, too.  And guys quit making folder adjustments in their favor so they can't get killed.  

But, whatever, go with the flow.
