It is the lack of numerous ultra fast uber cannon armed birds. The people flock to LW because of the fast food reflex. In other words, MW is more difficult, takes longer to get a fix = less population. Of course there are other lessor reasons , folks flocking to where the larger herd is, etc etc. But basically, High speed + mass cannon.
yep
same reason i don't play in early war, it is boring, the rides are fun for a bit but they fizzle out pretty quick, no good gv's to speak of unless you want to plink off another t-34 for an hour or so!
mid war offers a chance to get away from a lot of the late war planes while still offering a pretty good selection of stuff to play with, I have half a chance in my d-11 in there!
some new maps would be nice and more players would be great to!
I have asked before if we could move the timeline up six months or so in mid but most say no, this would attract some more players but might also change the balance of the the planeset to much!
I also think early war should be re done, as a progressive war arena, starting out in the early days of the war and progressing threw the entire war till all planes where available at then end, then reset it every month and start over, this would add a new aspect were you could fly one type of plane set threw the whole tour if you wanted to, or you could just fly the planes you like when they come up, kind of like a mini tour of duty! score would be a little more important here and offer a chance to specialize in areas of the game not really allowed in the main arena's since you could have a p-38 ace instead of just, the best in fighters! the jug drivers could start out in the d-11 and progress all the way threw to the n and m, plenty of german fighters to do this in as well!
it would be a good way to understand more aspects of why and when things became available during the war and how they affected it!
