And therein lies your problem.  Why?  Well that's completely the wrong metaphor for Aces High.  The metaphor for Aces High is not an Oklahoma Land Rush, the correct metaphor is that of a Food Chain where conditions are setup so that species will FIND and feed off of each other!  Attached below is an example.  I've kindly annotated the diagram to illustrate.

BnZers above the furballers in the food chain?  Let them come down from their perch and visit with the furballers....we shall see who eats whom my good friend and invariably, they WILL come down...and they will be eaten.

HT decided things needed to be changed and we all have to respect that decision.

If he gives you a choice you will always take the path of least resistance.  How about going back to the drawing board and adapting some of your tactics.  You may well find new ways to take bases or put a little more thought into the capture.

Just thinking out aloud here.  You send in a fast jabo before your attack, his job is to pork radar.  

You need one set of lancs to kill town in 2 passes.  

The rest are fighter cover / heavy jabos, 1 person gets assigned VH.  The rest tidy up the 10 or so buildings in town.  First person to die grabs troops.

You need about 5 guys minimum for the above.

The problem is usually the amount of defenders that up and if you do not have confidence in your fighter pilots capping the field.  Once air superiority is lost you have very little chance of making the capture.  This IS what it boils down too.  Large squads that take the NOE option everytime just DO NOT have the aerial prowess or confidence to hold a cap.  By coming in un-detected is your only chance of sneaking a field.

Whilst i'm not an out an out furballer over the years we have taken several fields with the least amount of pilots against superior odds.  These captures ARE intense and enjoyable for both teams because there is COMBAT.  Seems to me you guys do not want a fight?


 Just because HT made a change, dosn't mean it was for the best. And I think you missed the point..AGAIN.

With every change I have not noticed that it makes any difference in how many times I get my butt waxed. Yes I am a dweeb with no skills. I am also a dweeb that has been paying for 9 years. If I do the math correctly that is about $1,620.00
Money well spent. I love this game. It is about more than skill. Flying with a squad, and being part of something that is not part of your daily grind and stress. This game relieves my stress. "Money well spent" Therapy would have cost me a lot more :rofl
I hope that HTC continues to make the game playable for everyone. In 9 years I think they have done a great job :salute :salute :salute
Relax, enjoy..................suspen d reality. You really will enjoy it.

You and everyone else has a right to voice their opinion.
But HTC makes their decisions, based on what they feel is the best for game play.
Could they be wrong? Yes. They will be the ones to change it. ( I think that has happened )

:rofl ... what a load of bollocks.

lol

If someone doesn't like something, they don't like something. 

The forum is full of people telling others they are wrong.  Wrong for not liking something and that by not liking something, they will be ignored AND it will not have any effect on the game.

Open a restaurant and tell your customers what they will like, cater to the drunks that show up everyday, and see how long you stay in biz.

btw not saying I'm a huge fan on NOE missions, just something different to do.  Now it's not there.  Just like tanking is something different to do, sometimes necessary, but not why I play and lets face it, tanking is not really that hot in this game.  But if it were removed, would again be something missing and one less thing to do.

I'm not so happy with this radar change, yet all the discussions in the world regarding the radar doesn't really matter. In my 5.5 yrs with the game, I've yet to see an arena enviromental change reversed, so let's just get used to it.

I know of some.

1. The field capture path system.
2. The strat system.
