It's a shame you let it get to you that much. AvA is seeing the most #s it has had in months. Great time to be in there.

It didn't get to me as in mad or anything. I just thought it was pointless. The attackers would never come out of the ack to fight until you started to land then vulch you. I had a couple good fights before the fleet got there one with a P38 and me in a Val and another with a P40 and me in the same Val. But when the fleets got there just became pointless to stay. I couldn't sink all 3 fleets with one val and there were only 3 others on my side and  9 or 10 attackers in the fleet ack right off the base.

Ack is usaully reduced in the AvA. Should've been no problem to drag a few out  :x

Most times AAA is .25 or .1

MA AAA is set at 2.0 which is many times higher.  IMHO our lower setting seems more realistic :D

Its not about agreeing or disagreeing about anything. Its about him reading jaegers post then trying to spin it to troll.


He's not trying to spin it as anything other than a question.  However, you disagree with him and you're trying to dismiss his question by claiming it as a troll when you really don't have a valid answer to his question.

Its not that hard to see his question was a spin to try and get a flame war going akak. Maybe you should read the posts again.

This was jaeger's post.

"i find it enhances the game and it keeps the fight below 3k. works for me. just my 2 cents"

Now this was BnZs' post.

"Query: Why should the fights be kept below 3K in an arena that is is supposed to be more historically accurate?"


Now jaeger said nothing about how fights SHOULD be kept under 3k. He said that puff ack from the CVs tend to keep people below 3k. From jaeger's post it seems that he didn't mind it and you could even say he enjoyed it. Now BnZs comes in and posts a random question wording it like jaeger said the fights should be kept under 3k. Which, if anyone took the bait would have started another 'you cant tell me how to fly' thread and put all the work some people have been doing to try and get numbers into the AvA.

Its obvious to see what was happening because its happened so many times before. The AvA starts seeing numbers and people start putting the past behind them, then someone comes in and stirs the pot and it all goes down the drain.



So akak you want a valid answer to his question? Well you're right I don't have an answer, because its not a valid question.

I was there tonight and had fun. :)  But who are these people toolsheding the map?  There was a squad of 5 in there, each with "A2" in front their cpids, running lvts against undefended bases.

Please, no more field capture in the AvA.

P.S. the current map has way too much puffy ack.
I ran into those 2A dweebs in EW or MW a few days ago, when I got on they were having a nerd attack that buster was killing them. Then They interupted Bushlt's and my 1v1 and started to talk trash. :confused:

Went to DA with bigmouth and apparently "Got lucky" and killed em.

There are a few bad apples as there is in any arena. This is a fact of multiplayer games unfortunately  :(
