Although I agree it improves the chances of finding a fight
I am shaking my head that it would be implemented (other than for trial purposes
) over increasing the icon range. I asked for the icon range to be increased to promote more fights. In the past, the answer has been, AvA has always been that way. Well, here's your chance to correct that.
Ham, the settings are being tweaked while we are in boot camp for Battle of Aces. I am putting the word out how great the AvA is and how much fun. I expect to see new squads flying AvA this war. AvA staff is doing a great job of looking into past complaints, at the top of their list has to be vulching and milkrunning. If the GPS settings of the current setup will help in either of these cases, I am for it. If they are looking to promote fights, please look at increasing icon range.
Icon range will help keep enemy from slipping by avoiding detection. I can't tell you how much it improves SA. The arguement that it is not necessary (then do away with it all together).
