Is this what Hitech wants?
« on: February 26, 2011, 11:57:47 PM »
I was wondering, is it?



There are almost 30 dots in this screen shot, and this is after the attacked had started a few people had scrambled to know a number of them down. In this case they launched off a CV and NOEd in. There is no way to defend against this type of attack (thats why they do it!) Even if the defenders had 30 guys sitting in the tower waiting for the next attack it would be almost impossible to stop. Is this the type of game play that Hitech wants. Unstoppable hordes going from base to base just flattening everything like a horde of locust.

Its not even fun trying to see how long you can last i that mess with 5-10 guy diving on you at once. Launching from the next base is a waste of time as the horde gobbles up the base in under 5 minutes which is more than quick enough to be gone and looking for the next NOE path before a defender could get there from an adjacent base.

My solution was easy enough, I went to another arena. I can see where people could get frustrated and decide it isn't worth it to even play. Is this the way the game is going to be played?

The thing about hordes is.... There isn't anyone worth fighting in there anyway.
People always talk about flying to a planes strength, well the horde is the same, making up for a weakness (skill) with a strength (numbers). Let them clap themselves on the back and wtg each other for another epic capture, safe in the knowledge that while 50 of them raced each other for one or two vulches, truly great fights were happening elsewhere.

I was posting threads like this three years ago...
It's time to give up on changing it and just fly "MA style" in the MA and save the 1vs1 acm's for the DA. Otherwise you'll just go bald, like me.
