DA = Losers
« on: March 07, 2009, 06:32:34 PM »
What a cesspool the DA has become. Bad enough that you have to deal with the offal at "furball lake" but when it reaches a point that those folks feel its perfectly appropriate to break in on actual duels away from that area I think its time to consider some options. 1st and foremost is repeated and intentional interruption of organized duels on the dueling fields an event that will trigger discipline from HTC (or ideally being booted from the DA for a period of time)?

I wish there was a way to go back to the halcyon days of AH. 

Unfortunately, that isn't going to happen.

All I can hope for now is they introduce some cool planes that I'd like to mess around in.

There's only one real hope other than having sort of CM's babysitting the DA: Player hosted H2H rooms on HTC server

I hope that is their endgame. Seems like I saw someone from the company allude to that

There is another option - get a load of good sticks together, go over and rampage their backsides lol......

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 had a few good fights in there yesterday. One great fight with Stokes until rudely interrupted by a CHog just blazing in and spraying 20 mills everywhere and into my plane. I left after that...

I fly mostly DA nowadays. But the rampant tardness is just that...rampant. Especially friday nights and any early evening. I wish more of the uber sticks would come to furball lake, Im by no means uber, in fact Im hoping to be mediocre by summer. If more good sticks came over, maybe we could get rid of the griefers or atleast reighn them in a bit. The horde of cats,hotard tempest pilots are for the most part new guys that dont know right from wrong and theres not alot of people trying to steer them in the right direction instead of just crying HO or tard or the usual verbage from the rest of us. It is tiresome, but not too terribly different from the MA in those regards. Faster action but faster grief. Good sticks come on over, and go Bish, hopefully we ll still be outnumbered.

The lake are is what it is... take it or leave it. That said, action should be taken when it spills over into private duals.

I honestly don't remember the DA being as it was Febuary of last year. Was it THAT bad then?

The new crop of players didn't just "take it or leave it" when they came to the old DA.  They changed it.

Wurz he's referring to our SDL match. This guy upped and tried to ruin it.

As if furballing lake in itself isn't bad enough with that TA squad who don't even participate in the squad duelling league.. even though they're a so called DA squad... it's hilariously absurd.

They just like to gang n horde in furball area. Then we have those awesome tempest pilots (well they would never have enough perks for it in MA) who proudly go ahead and land their 3 picks n hos.. no intention of furballing.

Why should we take it or leave it Bronk, when we as a community have always effected the game. We are the game. It's an MMO.
