Proposal: Eliminate 'Fighter' score in EW

[DaddyAck]

I remember for a few weeks after the arena split some of the best fights could be found there in the EWA.  It was good fun back then, but now sadly it is a milkmaids paradise.  I too have tried to find fights there lately and got disapointed.  

A big <S> to the guys whoom for those weeks made the fighting fun in the EWA, y'all know who y'all are. 

[BaldEagl]

What exactly did you expect?

[DaddyAck]

I kinda expected the good fights to continue.  Instead it turned into at first a bunch of Hurri Mk2c HOing everything in site (it was actually great fun to HO em' back in the F4F and win then listen to how I should have died and not them), then a milking ghost town. 
I miss those first few weeks when the fighting was good.  Man I had fun in those A6m2 Vs. F4F CV battles.  That was good times.

Perhaps HTC should roll the EW and MW arenas into one and introduce a four day 1939-43 rolling planeset. There's just not enough players to support two early war arenas IMO.

[Rockies]

The funny thing is most complaining about how others are playing. Hey HTC we hate others in arena alone. can you close it?


 I have flown against soars and with soars. 90% of them good guys and will help them any chance I get. What  is even funnier is most guys complaining fly rooks and they say nothing of midwar. i just logged in 14 rooks 2 nits 0 bish untill i got on. want to guess where the rooks are hitting " bish bases". Killed 20 rooks , but they finally got the base. And what happens i get called pathetic after they capture base 9 on 1  mostly new flaks tanks mossies 109s so on. Mid war is alot more crude so far than early war. fly out numbered kill 5 or 6  and your a XXXXXX  or a XXXXXXXXX  etc. then the .02 k/d and .012 hit % guys tell you they can beat you 1 on 1 lol.



 the only thing that really needs to be fix is A way to see who is killing who in every arena. Now you have to see a name then check. should be able to see who pilot is killing. would make scores more important and fair. i know atleast 5 or 6 guys in early war and mid war using 2 accounts. 1 to spy and watch dar unfair advantage to see where all enemy are. I do know that stats could be missleading As I have over 90kills of Tdorde in early war to 1 death, and some might think its a 2nd pad account. this might be why htc doesn't make scores checkable. i can imagine how many would see these kills of tdodre and call or email htc. saying padding scores. i'm sure i'm not only 1 that has lots kills same person, because arena is small.

All I saw were cherry-picks, and multiple "friends" on one target, rock.  If you call that "fighting", I think kamilyun, has something. 

 its early war u can only kill what you find. and if you really watched film you wouldv'e heard me say" this too easy feels like cheating. not my fault they kept coming up over and over. instead of taking off another base. but ask anyone in ew i try to help them explain what they should do or not do. somethings they don't get what a rope is no matter how hard you try to explain.

[Gianlupo]

kamilyun,

It seems to me that you are not useing your ID, because I have never seen you in EW, but apparently you are so worried about the "Fighter" scores from this arena.  SO, tell me why... you are so worred about EW, when you don't even fly there.  And, why would you even write a lame post like you have.  If EW scares you so much, and obisously it does................  STAY OUT.  And, by the way, it is so funny that you say no one fights in there, when obviously there are plenty of logged kills .. and in all catagories.

It's so full of nothing inside your skull!!!!!

[Max]

It is not needed and gives the impression that people actually fight in there.

I've wasted a couple hours of my life trying to find someone to engage in combat in EW.  Thought it might be a nice change of pace from LW.  Besides a few M3s trying to sneak undefended bases, there's nothing.

Kami your mostly right on but not 100% of the time.

My method is to switchto lowest #'s chess piece, find a red dar bar and up as close as I can. 50% of the time I can find something besides buffs to shoot down.

When I was flying EW again last tour, 80% of the time that didn't work.
Numbers were ususally like 10-1-0, and when I switched to the country under attack and headed to the biggest darbar, it would quickly disappear after the first few kills. Then they would braveley attack the other country again, well knowing I was stuck for an hour and couldn't fight them there.

Even worse, the amount of c- accusations and flying poo reached levels previously unknown to me. Seems like some players have made their home there because the lack of mods...

I wish I had a nickel for every time one of the SOARs made cheating accusations!

That's a great idea 

[Helm]

Nobody flys EW because the plane set is so limited.  Also Early war planes should be turned off in LW so that EW has some attraction to it.  Oh and please dont tell me you fly EW planes in LW....because you dont.  I never ever see bf109e....hurri I ...c202...bf110c.   I dont see them in air...I dont see them on my team.....and I certainly do not see them landing any kills



Helm ...out

[Lusche]

Oh and please dont tell me you fly EW planes in LW....because you dont.  I never ever see bf109e....hurri I ...c202...bf110c.   

I tell you because I do. Last year Hurri I was placed 5th on my "kills in" list, 90% of those were made in LW MA

And others do too. Kills by EW planes in LW arena last tour:

A6M2       1496
BF109E     334
BF109F     1794
BF110C     389
C202         429
F4F-4         782
Hurri I        643
Hurri II       11372

Actually, so do I.  Here's a sampling of my EW rides (all in LW) over the past 6 months along with my K/D in them.  Don't believe me?  Look it up.

Bf 109E-4   0.67
Bf 109F-4   2.00
F4F-4   2.00
Hurricane Mk I   3.00
Hurricane Mk IIC   2.00
Ju 87D-3   2.29
P-38G   0.25
Spitfire Mk I   0.83
Spitfire Mk V   1.14

Thanks ... but no thanks. The MW is healthy and doing just fine ... and the idea of a rolling plane set is well ... a sucky idea ... sorry Greebo.

Why would anyone really give a rats arse what goes on in the EW, if you don't make that arena your 'home" ? Let the SNOARs milk all they want ... it's quite evident that everyone who has posted here knows their MO so it's not like they will be held in the highest regard.

So why bother trying to figure out ways to stop their gameplay ... other than going to the EW and 'bringing it" to them ?

Storch had the right idea ... get a bunch of your buddies and go in there and spank them.

They meander into the MW on occasion and their MO doesn't work too well in there due to the fact that there are numbers in the MW to easily repel them and they get bored with it all and eventually go back to the EW.
