Time to revisit ENY...

[LLogann]

Suck my what?  You guys are all crazy........  And very time based......  Every Bishop, every Rook & every Knight think that they are always ganged.  And it really comes down to time of day........... @ 0600 GMT (night time in the US) Rooks always have the upper hand.  Or.... At least that's what I think.   

BigR,

Is your real complaint the recent phenominon of the bish "Coward Cloud" of up to 60 aircraft swamping and rolling rook feilds one at a time even if the rooks have a higher number of players on the map?

ENY is worthless against that. In fact it's to the advantage of the bish by allowing thier mostly lame fighter support to fly high ENY planes in the safety of the cloud. So someone has turned ENY to the littel guys advantage just like HiTech INTENDED. You cannot blame the few reasonable bish players who tag along for doing so to pick up easy kills. We all take advantage of such clouds from time to time. The recent phenominon is just taking advantage of a higher number of newer players on the bish side these days who want to win without effort. And, can you blame the knights for not fighting the bish while they have a breather to fight a single side? Especially if ENY gives them an edge along with only one enemy for the night.

It took a few years but, ENY is finally working as designed. Remember, HiTech does not care if you only want to fly rooks. You are making a personal decision to help rookland suffer from high ENY like every other rook who won't change sides to make the country numbers even. If there were no ENY, rookland's high player numbers could easily fight one country and roll the other with high ENY aircraft. Thats why HiTech implimented ENY because Rookland used to up 300+ players and swamp the other two countries almost one night a week for awhile.

So BigR, are you asking HiTech for the 300+ rook player nights with high ENY planes back again?

Every opinion counts, but every one of our opinions is always going to be different. 

It is, what it is!

  You're kidding, right? This is a joke? 

There's one team that's had such a big numerical advantage lately that it frequently has as many pilots as both the others put together, and one side that for months now has consistently run more rolling horde base swamps than both the others, and it ain' bish. Hint: it ain't nits either.

When the Rejects decided we needed to leave nits, there was no question which way to go: rooks meant skies full of green and high ENY, bish meant better organized and motivated to fight as a team. Rooks had already been constantly rolling hordes for some time by then.

I fly as a knight currently and can't remember a time when I wasn't outnumbered on the map......

Rgr that, Noah.

[whiteman]

think it was a joke, should have read "Coward Wave" since noe is SOP.

a few weeks ago nits were getting getting the fight from both sides while heavily out numbered. Most the nits were fighting the rooks while a small number of us upped against two bish squads that had to hold hands and noe nit bases that of course were on the other side of the map and undefended. We lost a bunch of bases but racked up plenty of perks and enjoyed the clowns.

[Delirium]

some people don;t perceive side changing as appropriate or desirable. 

Let me make it even more simple...

If you don't switch, you will suffer with a high ENY penalty.

That is the price of loyalty to a virtual chess peice.

getting horded by both countries has happened long b4 eny. The country with numbers has always gotten themselves knee deep in each other countries *poop* that eventually turns into both countries retaliating. This causes a snowball effect in which both countries continue to attack the one that was well into their homelands long after evicting them. The trick is to turn focus onto one country after a fair enough field advantage is made and reset the map b4 the tides begin to turn.

[BigR]

ok i will say it again..maybe some of you will understand this time... I DONT GIVE A CRAP ABOUT BEING HORDED. IT IS BEING HORDED WHILE WE HAVE AN ENY PENALTY THAT UPSETS ME. CHANGING SIDES WILL DO NOTHING IN THAT SITUATION, BECAUSE THEN I WILL JUST BE PART OF THE HORDE. How many times do i have to say the exact same thing? The ONLY solution to this in the past was going to another arena. Now that can not happen. I dont know how else to spell it out.

You guys are so programmed in your defense of ENY, that you cant even comprehend what I am talking about. In normal situations, I like ENY.

I understand.  You are saying is you don't want ENY when both countries are beating up on your country that has the highest numbers.

So in your mind if you were to switch sides, you'd be in the horde.  But here's the deal, you ONLY FLY IN THE HORDE IF YOU WANT TO!  Seems simple to me.  Switch to low eny side, look for an average friendly dar bar, go have fun.  Or you could even fly to a base with no friendly dar and get something started.

I understand and feel your pain. I completely agree.

Some of those replies though... You'd think people would have learned to think critically by now.  

[LLogann]

ROFL @ this whole darn thread!!!

        

[whiteman]

Clue, if you are Rook and getting your arse kicked by both sides while you have ENY you could switch to Bish and attack Nit or vice versa. Now guess what, you no longer have ENY and you could now attack the other country hoarding your fellow rooks. Do i need to draw it out with crayons, maybe make a finger painting?

The option i would take is shut up and enjoy the abundance of targets, plus who says you have to fly into the largest red dar bar. find a smaller dar bar and go at it.

[froger]

You have missed my entire point. I dont mind getting ganged. I mind getting ganged while being forced to fly a 20 eny plane, and having 100 perk 262s picking the entire time. This is something that is happening now that was not happening in the past.

My favorite rides are 109f4, p40e, f4u1, p47 d11 and both zeros. <----all high eny rides.
  I fly bish only and for the last 3 nights the 262 has been 150/240 cost.while i love flying circles around your air fields in a 262 watching all the new guys trying to catch me and occasionally snagging a kill or 2, i would much prefer flying the old birds over the jets all day long. I'M learning the hard way if the enme dar bar is 2 sectors long and it's clear your base is the target and only a few guys for a defense, let um have there fun i guess and go fight elsewhere.
  I don't like being on either side of the hoard at all so i try to stay out of it but i get sucked in like the rest of um sometimes.


don't trip bro.....jump sides and up a late model, reasonably priced 262 and have some fun. skin optional.

oh ya, spit nine n fm2 are some of the best high ENY rides in the game.


that is all,

froger
