Everyone wants to change the game to make it easier for them, but harder for others.

They don't realize that 99 times out of 100 if you gave them what they asked for inside 3 months they'd beg to have it back the way it was.

Or they just don't think through what those changes would do in the long term.

I like the "MMB".

Better!!!!


It is simple and it denotes the "I want to be better without any work so give me the big gun" person.

That would be impossible. Everyone has access to the same aircraft and vehicle set and plays under the same "rules". Any changes to these sets or "rules" would effect everyone's options equally. The only people truly guilty of motivation you describe are those trying to hack.

Many players do not use all options the game is offering them. Most players asking for nerfing bombers (be it by reducing speed, removing formations or perking them) do actually almost never fly buffs for example.

Sure as the sun rises, I will be flying buffs again at some point in FSO...obviously I have a masochistic desire to be shot down then? :devil

Lusche, the only possible "benefit" in this game, and it doesn't amount to ANYTHING, is "score", which is equally attainable for everyone as long as we play under the same rules. The changes to gameplay brought by rule changes are a matter therefore of taste...you don't have to agree with my taste, but I resent being accused of some sort of far-out venal motive for them.

or... those of us asking for the buffs to be "nerfed" have a better understanding on how they were *not* used in WWII.  Doing bomb runs at 270mph in a Lancaster, B24, B17, or other such bomber in AH2 is a gross abuse of the amount of firepower those bombers can deliver.    ;)

You're right on the other hand, though.  They dont know all the options available to them AND more importantly they forget the scope of the *sim* and the learning curve involved.

I still vote for "MMB".
