The point of AcesHigh is Aerial Combat.
Field captures, bombers, ground vehicles, carrier groups, (etc, etc)are all things put into the game by HTC to facillitate Aerial Combat.
Base taking is the "sideshow" not the "point".
The Dueling Arena is for players to have somewhere for a 1 on 1 duel.
You must be fairly new.
When was the last time you were in the dueling arena? Hardly a 1v1. And if it's for aerial combat, what are GV's doing there? And then why are bombers allowed in the game? Just for missions? Yes, I started playing in January 09, but still I can see what can and should be allowed and the game should allow what ever you want to do and as I read, no one has the right to tell wnyone what they cna and shall not do except for the creators of this game. Anyone else is just whining about something out of their control and for calling someone out, as I have read, is violation of thread rules in which has been broken many times and which may have not been caught yet.
And since you call taking bases a sideshow, if a country takes enough bases they win the war and resets the map, hardly a SIDESHOW in my book.
I may be somewhat of a newbie to the game, but I know what is mature about things and this is playground crap.
Start thinking people about the different options this game gives, the DA, the MA's, and put it together for yourself. The creators have thought this thing out, otherwise, fighter hangers would be indestructable just to keep your furballl alive, and base taking wouldn't exist.
I love a good furball, god knows I do, but for crying out loud kiddies, if a fight dies, force another one! I have started many. AND I'M A NOOB IN MANY EYES, and if I can start one at a new base, what does that say about those who are looking for a fight and not starting one!
The fact of the matter is, as I have said in an earlier post, play how you want to play. But don't force others to play how you want to play. If the option is there to try and take a base by the bombers, they have the right. Even if there is a furball going on. Furballers have the right to furball, but remember that there are others trying to take bases and the one you are fighting near might be on their list. But just don't complain about things that are totally legal in the game! I have been turned off by hangers being bombed before when I was furballing but I never complained about it! Move to another fight!
Why the heck is a NOOB having to explain the obvious and defend both sides of this issue? Oh, I know, cause the parties involved forgot that this is only a game and everyone has the right to have fun, and that too many take things personally. Hence thinking that if someone does something they don't want done, must be on purpose to tick others off because they want them to play their way, as I have reaed. But isn't this post the same thing? Play my way?
