ENVY WWI
« on: May 31, 2010, 09:53:29 PM »
Because the DR1 is so over used I think it is time to assign new envy numbers to WWI planes and have envy kick in when sides are uneven, making the DR1 unavailable to the High numbers side :)

Wouldn't envy work the opposite of ENY?

LOL I love the BBS sharks, frig it whatever the system is. Everyone of you know what I meant, so being goofy doesn't change the wish.  The ENY is the same for all the WWI aircraft and that is just silly the DR1 out classes every other plane in there at the moment, save FB2 with its tail gun if well flown.

lol couldn't resist Boxboy <S> Cheap shot for comic relief only, consider it immediately withdrawn  :aok

I'm not sure forcing an issue when numbers are so low is a good idea; the Tripe drivers ( yeah, you know who you are, you blood stained butchers lol) might just change sides or leave. Can they even fly other aircraft?   :bolt:

There are plans afoot (or so I'm told) which should fix alot of the problems in there, but I think we'd all agree some new aircraft would stir things up abit and create more interest. Our best chance right now (I'm guessing) is for everyone to wish, beg, plead, whatever it takes to try and get things moving in that direction (and they probably already are anyway).

As is true with so much about the game...the solution lies with each player.  If people would choose to fly something different now and then, every aspect of the game would improve. 

When I first came online, it seemed everyone in EW flew the Hurri2c...so I flew it too.  Then it quickly got boring when you could out-turn almost everything, and kill it with a .5 second burst from the 4 hizookas.  I started flying other planes and found a new challenge - actually learning a little ACM, instead of pulling the stick into my nutz in an attempt to point at the enemy every opportunity.

So it would seem that in WWI people could try something different.  Yeah, it would be nice to have more planes to choose from, but that will come.

I am sure that if all 3 of you in the WW1 arena just talk about plane choices, then this can be fixed without any ENY changes required. :D
