Everyone has two lives. Even our jets. (262, 234)

234s didnt dominate the arena like the 262s did

Ahem...YOU go sink two CV's. I'll pack up my group and move elsewhere, see if you win the scenario now!  Muahahaha!

  Wasn't there a quote somewhere or someone far up in HTC that said this game was created to piss people off. Guess it is working.

ok hotshot. True dat i didn't read every post in this thread because it's the same ole argument that pops up every tour. It's always the furballers vs the war winners.

Yes i do pay attention and what i notice is that you furballers won't step foot in furball lake in the DA. This puzzles me as you can furball 24/7 until your heart's content, without the worry of the FHs being taken down. No strategy involved...just fight. So if you could care less about any bases being taken, it'd stand to reason that the DA arena is the arena for you.

The AoMs are a respected squad but i will not hump their legs just to "fit in". You all proclaim your uberness by landing double digit kills while 5634745 guy takes your bases from under your feet. Then you guys come to the BBS and cry about the very things the main arenas are set up for....taking bases and winning the war.

Frankly, i think the game play of the dedicated furballers is what has allowed the mega squads to take root and roll bases unopposed.

OMG, what a bunch of crap. You can't be serious.  

Do you seriously thing the MA is nothing but a continuous Scenario?????????

As for DA furball lake...It is filled with clueless retards....its like clubbing baby seals...its good for some target practice but thats about it.

You see there is a whole type of strategy played by Furballes that you base takers know nothing about...its called "creating a fight"...We might take a base to defend it. WE might go take a base near another base to start a good fight. And theres nothing wrong with participating in a good base take overall..sometimes thats fun.

The central point of this thread is about those who PURPOSLEY kill fighter hangers for the sole purpose of ending a furball.

I ask...would this game be any fun at all if there were never any enemy contacts to defend a base. Why doesn't HiTech just make it a one country map where the goal is the get points for killing buildings. Hell why not just make the enemy AI planes. Kinda like playing an offline mission?

Get the quote then come talk to me

He cant.
But not because it wasnt said. It just wasnt said in text form. That quote was said  by a member of HTC staff (Possibly HT himself) at one of the cons. It was in one of the recordings that was posted either last year or the year before.
I heard it myself  

Actualy I beleive the quote was the the "goal of the game was to piss the other guy off"

[uptown]

Let me retort if you will......

1st, I'm not a base taker. I fly alone and do my own thing. I will pass up a fighter at first to go after the bombers as they will possibly shut something down that my country may need. You on the other hand will let the buffs fly right on by because you don't want to take a chance of catching some lead from "baby seals". Which brings me to my...

2nd point. You and the rest of the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, have the misguided impression that EVERYONE, that is not in your group, are baby seals just waiting in line for you to amaze us with your uber skillz. I LOL in your general direction. You forget about how you used to ride around on Cretons coat tail like a puppy on a leash? Just because you can write pages upon pages of rambling ACM discriptions doesn't make you uber. I fought you Agent360 and you ARE fun to fight but as the record will show, i for one have sacked your 109 up more then a few times  

True the DA does have alot of folks with little to no skill but a few will eat your lunch if you're not on the ball. Most are in there just for a quick fight and learn how to fly so they can have some success in the Main Arenas. You put such a premium on ACM, why not go in there and teach how it's done? They're just doing what is done to them for the most part.

Yes I remember hearing that too.

The biggest misconception I see is we think a 'country' is its own entity making decisions to take down hangars or who they fight.  Bish are only attacking Knights! Bish keep taking down fighter hangars!  In reality one player decides he wants to bomb hangars for whatever his reason is.  He probably doesn't have one, he just figures if he blows up stuff at enemy base, he helps his side and has fun at the same time.  It's pretty easy to understand how it happens even though it makes no sense from a strategy perspective.  Don't even waste your time trying to wrap your head around things you see in this game, no one knows wth they are doing.

Right. Other than in isolated cases, there is no concert of action - just individuals or small groups of individuals doing whatever possesses them at the moment. In real life, of course, everything would fall under a command structure and would be intended to, with exception for "offline" actions of individuals, support an overarching strategic goal.

No such command structure exists here.

It's a kind of whimsical 24/7 war with near-zero consequence for bad decisions. I'm okay with that. Play on.

Or maybe, just maybe, these guys like to furball, it's fun for them.... just maybe.

Yes i know you enjoy furballing. I perfer it myself. But alot of times i get bored with it and need to do different things to keep myself interested in the game. I respect your POV but why can't you understand that there are guys out there that only like to bomb? They too see the big red dar bar and want to do their part in the fight.

If they killed vh and most of the town in buffs they would effect the fight for sure, the presence of a set or 2 of buffs at a base limit the amount of fighters that will up against the enemy fighters coming in, just like a gv or 2 hitting town would do. The difference is it isnt an extreme difference in the fight for most of the players but in the end the side that has a buff taking apart town is going to win.

You're not really getting the point to the thread I don't think. You think it's some furballers vs bomber thread or muppets vs baby seals thread or something. I don't think the initial post was about an issue with bombers in general. More so an issue with a certain few that take out hangers just for the purpose of killing a fight and with no intention of helping any war or cause. And also by some misguided players who think taking out hangers as priority 1 is helpful in taking a base.

Oh and here I thought you were an idiot. My mistake. Might wanna check that line again. Here's a hint. If the bobber isn't moving, there's nothing on it. Quit reeling it in. You're scaring away the fish.
