I don't fly EW but I still enjoy fights most of the time. getting into a good 1 or 2 v 1 that goes a good couple of rounds before I die is what I like. I do still get frustrated at times but in reality it is my stupidity that causes that. Even last night (mine) i was involved with a furball that got unbelievably chaotic yet had the greatest time getting nailed. It really comes down to your frame of mind at the time as last nights lot was just pick, ho, ram, bam it had it all but was great upping just to see how long I could stay up.  

the chaos that goes on in furballs is my favorite.  :D

 Tried again yesterday.There were a few dots attacking the port base in the middle down south. I thought 2 to 1 Im in on that. Took off in the 109 and there were zekes all over,an f4f,a cv off shore shelling the town.Suddenly it was 5 on 2.Damned if I can remember the other bish that was there.I wasnt fareing to well trying to fight the zekes who were bouncing as soon as we got out of the ack so this went on till I grabbed a hurri 2c along with the other bish guy and we cleaned them out.Their cv got smoked by our cv that was on their 6 and they never stopped firing at the town even as the cv went down.Same with the cruiser.Hai was there and gomer.As soon as the cv went down that was it.All logged off.
 Gomer came back in a fw and egged an ammo and the did some bnz for a little while till a squadie that showed up ran him back to base and killed him while he was landing.Then HE logged.
 It was at that point still 2 on one but it had reversed.
  Seems even when ya get a good fight going the milk maids just log off.

Not all, by a fair margin, are EW pilots suck-sticks.  You go in with the "i'm a LWer & thus I'm superior in skillz" attitude you will be handed your keester on a silver platter in short order.

Went into EW tonight with the squadies and had a blast. Was an intense furball from the time I entered to the time I left. SOARS were off doing their own thing, it's their $15/mo. Was still a blast!

yaknow.....i was gonna go to ew tonight, but gave mw a shot. there was some fun fights over p4, and i kept hearing fighting at a43.


 the first fight, i got bounced by a high fw, and a f6f joined in. it was fun dodging the fw's attemts....i was doing better than i expected dodging his passes. then the f6 came in. i took a quick look, thought the fw was far enough away, so i lured the f6 in close.....forced him to overshoot, got a quick snapshjot at him, but something just didn't "feel" right. i look around, and there's the fw less than 1k out, bearing doiwn on me...i do a hard evasive, but too late....he took some important things off, and i went in. it was actually fun.

 it was kinda like a mini-furlball there for the hour or so i was on.....

I go into early war tonight,12 people flying I figure I can get a good fight. That was my first error in thought. I was rook and see someone all by themselves raiding,porking,score padding whatever and swap to bish to intercept and ruin a porkers night. Problem is he WAS a bish.Right along with the other 11 in there. SOAR,you guys are something. :lol
the game is like that in general u just do not notice it in bigger arenas :O

Just because one flies in the LW arena, doesn't make him better than someone that flies in the EW or MW arena.

This is what is truly sad...

Elitist attitudes like this is one reason I stay away from LWO. 

I'm actually glad for this thread, and others like it "bashing" the Early War Arena - they have brought in people and I've seen more new names in there in the last week than I have for a long time.  Even if they're "just visiting" with the intent to "teach the EW a lesson", at least there are some that come and provide good fights.  Although, I tire real fast of the LW Ch.200 crap that came with them.

So  :salute for at least coming.  Perhaps you'll come back soon, with a better attitude.  We're not all dweebs and milkers, and we don't all suck.  I may not be the hottest stick around, but I'll give you a good fight most nights.  Win or lose, it's usually fun - unless the LW attitude comes shining through your canopy.

I feel sorry for all you blokes sometimes.

I honestly think that you lads all miss out on the best of Aces High.

It happens during Aus East Coast/Pacific prime time.

Arena of 180 max and all of the people who are on are either Aussie/Euro, Asian or early risers in the US (i.e, no American kids/punks).

A laid back, gentleman's attitude is prominent and the fights are good.

Enough people are on to find a fight....but not so many that those fights turn into gang-rapes within 30 seconds.....

It's the one good thing about living on the rim of the world's bumhole.  :lol  :aok

Having said that, should I feel the urge to participate in a scenario (which I would very much like to do more often) I do have to get up at 5AM to play.

....And that's a big ask.

AH isn't the same without a couple of beers and a black sky outside the window....
