before you "almighty know-it alls" go off and tell someone they should get a different job, or tell someone they are whining, you might orta get to know the person you are flaming.......just a suggestion

everyone reads a post, then turns the post around to fit the reply they come back with.........

people should think, and give suggestions, and grow up!


just out of curiosity does anyone posting to this thread, have a clue why Whels has that particular handle/username/gameid? don't answer that...it doesnt matter

what matters is Whel's commitment to equal gameplay for all........for the last 15 or so years.......

"When one considers just what they should say to a new pilot who is logging in Aces High, the mind becomes confused in the complex maze of info it is necessary for the new player to know. All of it is important; most of it vital; and all of it just too much for one brain to absorb in 1-2 lessons" TC

Eeeer.....I didnt flame, disrespect or disagree with what Whels wrote.......to me the simplest answer is, if you see people milkrunning, up a plane and stop them.........if Whels (or anyone for that matter) thought I was having a dig........there was no offence intended or implied.

Oh, and I'm not a know it all....for the record, I know little about this game....but am putting myself up the learning curve in my own manner!

(and if it wasnt aimed at me, ignore what I wrote....i'm at work, very cranky n grumpy)

I'm the worst pilot ingame ya know!!!

It's all unrealistic crap requested by people who want pie in the sky actions performed without an understanding of how things work and who can't grasp reality.

I am having a hard time seeing why this would be needed.  No one has any control what the map will look like when they log in.  

It doesn't matter if it is a few people in a relatively empty arena or hordes in a well populated arena -- bases get taken all the time regardless.  If you come in to see your country down to only uncapturable bases, then all that means is you have a challenge in front of you.

I've been playing this game for over 5.5 years.  

I have grown into a furballer type player.   I play for the fight.   Field Captures are too simple for me.   I can get fields with about 6 people.  

I want to turnfight, the 10 minute fights like I've had with fuzeman's bunch.   The kind of fight that even if you get shot down, leaves you so drained, that you shake, sweat, cuss to yourself and hit the hat's like a crack addict looking for another rock.   The kind of fight that forces you to muster up the willingness to up again.    That is what drives me and keeps me coming back for more.

lol, who cares what the map looks like the next day when ya log on,
there is still going to be a "front" to fight on and work to take bases.

Penalizing the guys that fly the off hours is bad idea!

If you want to stop peeps from taking undefended fields in the wee hours,
have HTC scap the multi arena experiment gone bad

they will still be able to take some fields, but there is sure to be more resistance
