how is limiting amount of time actually going to curb spying anyway?  Getting rid of cross country vox would be great, combined with very strict side switching.  That way HT would be sure to keep me from chatting with friends....really who needs interaction with the community in an online game anyway!  brilliant.


no " getting rid of cross country vox" would not be great, and as i have said and others here have said most side switchers are looking for the better fight, not to spy.
there will always be spies,if they cant vox they will text each other, if they are that determined.

but maybe its just because i don't care who wins the "war" I am here for a good Aerial fight. seeings how this game is about Aerial Combat, and "pissing off the red guy" or something like that, some one of no importance has said.

Hows about having squad vox only limited to people on the squad roster? like in the text.  Also to stop the dweeby PMs..have invites sent to anyone from other countries who wants to PM.

NOE missions are not the point of his post. Spying is.

What I was pointing out was that an NOE mission is sneaky way to steal a base, much like spying is a sneaky way to bust a mission.  Is going to happen, and it will be kids most times because they still believe that "winning the war" means you win the game. The "war" just like the strat targets, and GVs, and the base captures are all mechanics that create opportunities for  FIGHTS That is what the game is about.

Never mind about the spying, go out and pick a fight. Should you happen to take that base, go pick another fight, thats where all the fun is!

Nope.  That would hinder those of us that regularly switch sides to help with the country with the low numbers.

The game is NOT just about fighting. If that were the case..noone would win and reset the map. There wouldnt be a map..just 3 high alt bases where everyone would furball. You have to have the NOE tactic here to win a map or its just going to be a stalemate.
People..there is a "strategic" value to this game. When you run a NOE, even though you dont put up a darbar..your still faced with that base blinking a good 3 minutes before you get to that town. Then your mission is null and void completly if they kill your troops or some newb running the goon decides to drop under 200 ft or you see them over the airfeild. Now we have to deal with side switchers that shoot their mouths off?...LAME and completly takes away one good aspect of the game.

What do you win?  And did I miss something here?  When did anything completely take away one aspect of the game?

Go ahead, reset the map and start the do over if that's what you like, but to imply one squeaker with a loud mouth has completely taken out a part of the same is just silly.

And remember it's us old timers that are intent on ruining the game, not the newbies squeaker types!

the communication system in AHII is very archaic and that game deserves better...seriously its not better than any early dial up game in DOS mode. I think a lot of the tensions between player in game is linked with the difficulty to communicate.

Also as a non English player I would enjoy the support of foreign characters so we can have decent conversations with my fellow Frenchmen.

If they started putting foreign letters in chat the country chat will just be full of foreign spammers instead, sry but i disagree there noir but would be worse than it is now.

LOL!!! newb ! You'll learn, answer me this,when you "win the war" what do you get? You get to start all over again ! half the time on the same map even !!!. The only thing that is constant, is the fights, thats all this game is about, even HT said it, and he should know, he built the game.

Over the last few weeks the same map has been up in Orange. Was it a titanic struggle of good vs evil, or was it a lot of fights all over the map?

Skully, I agree with you but I'm afraid just fixing the vox won't help as they can PM the same information. As for switching sides, I say if you switch, you stay there for the rest of the tour.Them johnny boys have always been a little too gamey for my taste. I think if I see a con on either one of them from now on, I'll just fly on by like I never seen a thing. :salute
