HTC give us the choice!!!!!!

[Sperky]

As far as fighter skills not everyone has the ability to furball as well as others, more so the newbs that will keep this game alive and fill the coffers of htc,they need an outlet to develop thier skills.

How does a shorter radar distance and higher altitude of radar detection help develop the skills of newer players- in any arena?  
 

Newbs and those who cannot bomb as well will have a tougher time at 20k....yeah i know....good who cares?...htc will when people loose interest in a 45 min or better bomb run with no results for the pilot,and thus slowly leave the game.

I really really hate the new dar settings!

They are not realistic AT ALL!

 

Realistic settings or easier game play? You can't argue for both. "newbs and those who cannot bomb as well" may have a difficult time- but that's the learning curve for everyone and with everything in AH.  These same folks will have the same challenge on bombing runs at 12-15K even without the new dar settings.  They simply have to learn.

You had to start a new thread about it? What does that get you?

What is wrong with your idea is that players will vote (most of them) for what is best for THEM and not what is best for the GAME.

HiTech made this change because he felt this was best for HIS game.

ohh no now I have to fight to take a base cant just sneak in and take it

Whining isnt going to help your case. I think its time for all the NOE hoarders rethink their base taking tactics. Because now youre going to be met with resistance. The whole point of AH is to simulate combat. What is combat when you go NOE to an undefended base and capture it with no resistance? Then repeating it all day?

Guess youre going to have to learn to fight for the bases you want captured... Just saying.

You need to read..... I never said vote, again for you, I said TWO ARENAS, one with the new rules, and one without. Let the players have a choice, and see where it leads. why does this bother you? if the players want to furball let em furball, I cant see the problem with this!

They are not realistic AT ALL!

How realistic is it that 10 troops capture a field? How realistic is it that you have two extra bomber drones? How realistic is it that you can reup within seconds of being shot down? How realistic is it that it never rains? How realistic is it that you can talk to anyone on vox within range?

HTC is rightfully concerned with game play. It is a game after all. They will adjust the game play as needed to enhance the game play for the community.

The problem with your suggestion is that the NOE whiners like you are going to go the arena with the old radar settings and wont even try out the new settings. Not trying to be insulting, but thats the truth.

what is it about fighting that has you so scared?

[uptown]

  the poor, poor, noe, undefended base taking hoarde is crying like babies.


The Marines have a saying....adapt and overcome.

I really don't understand what all the fuss is about. The game is what it is. Why can't folks just accept that and move along. If all you know how to do is fly around wanting not to be seen, then maybe a online game is not for you afterall.

[whiteman]

I play all parts of the game and like the new settings, any trained ape could fly under 500 ft. 65ft isn't that hard, i was in a B25H noe and the group i was with was at 30 ft with no problem. just means you actually have to fly the plane now instead of nose on and auto level. Like Waystin i spend a large portion of most my nights jumping from base to base against noe hordes. the only time you can stop the huge raids is to get lucky and guess what base is next, find them early and hope people up when you give the early warning.

You had a choice for years. You and others like you chose to run NOE after NOE and work to avoid combat. As the game is all about combat, your choice has been altered, not removed. You can still play the way you did, it just takes a bit more work.

[dmdchief]

Well I like the new settings, I am not a furballer, just not any good at it and I have tried for years, but with that said, I hate for the bombers to be able to come in at 500 feet and destroy a base in fact come to think of it I hate bombers so I spend a lot of my time hunting them, he he he

Only thing I don't like is the extended range.  I could careless about the alt.  With the extended range of the radar, like someone else said, the radars overlap now between enemy and friendly fields.  As soon as u up from a field, there base starts to flash.  The old range was plenty big enough and gave anybody enough time to up and intercept anything that was coming in.  Especially NOE raids.
