Yeah yeah when you see a large percentage of streetwalkers gang stomping some random citizen you just join the gang and stomp the mutha! That's what the group is doing so they must be right, right? I mean if so many are stomping it's the stompees problem if he doesnt like it obviously. He should use tiger karate moves or sumptin!

These guys are playing the rules for all they're worth and the best response is to team up with friends of your own and give em a good fight.

That advice isn't of much value to guise like Sunbat.

well if you were lookin at my post it happens to everyone, all sides, all countires, comparing this to real life is a complete joke sir and you should stop. Tell you a story about "the horde" Chewie's missions are all numbers all the time, horde the base yet this man has so little actual skill in mission planning and execution that if the mission succeeds its by pure numbers alone and random bits of luck.....his sheer amount of stupidity in the way he runs and plans his missions ABSOLUTY Pisses me off and I will not join his missions EVER. that said if Ghi ups a B26s raid to shut y'all down (whomever that may be) Ill be right along with em. Now Rip I know your a good stick Ive fought you before but you and fugitive need to get off yalls pitty pot and either fight where and when you can or get out but I'm tired of listening to the same sad song week after week after week and you know what I could give a crap less if you dint like me the plane or how and when I fly. I'm not gunna step into your house and tell you what to do and y'all have no right to either. So lay off with yawls petty BS, and grow a dam pair........whew! ok Chewie if your reading this I'm sorry sir its true and I will not take it back.

P.S. If I was drivin along and some poor soul being stomped by a bunch of folks I'm pretty sure one of two thing would be happening 1. Id be persuading those gentlemen that Mr. Colts fine machine is a great deterrent to stomping or playin bumper cars with some folks and filing for some insurance. Mojo yes sir and no problem I was wondering if you had the wrong guy there are at least 3 Vudus with different spellings and this is the second time Ive been mistaken for one of the other ones.

Wabbit... I still can't believe some of the stuff I've seen.  One guy was made to "stand at attention" for an hour for not following some rule or other.
Uh huh..  :salute

Oh I don't doubt you.

I was just questioning wether it justified comparing them to an uppity lizard.

Moot:

I just reread everything from last night and I've come to the conclusion that I managed to take nearly every word you said the wrong way.  I'm not sure if it's because I had been studying for midterms all day and/or because it was late, but I clearly was not tracking well.

My apologies, I hope you believe me when I say I don't usually respond to everything that irrationally.

That's fine Sector.  Nobody's perfect :)  The important thing is moving on from mistakes without forgetting their lessons.  Don't mean to sound all geriatric or brow beating but.. that's what it boils down to.  I'm not arguing because I get off on you being wrong.  Wrong is wrong and right is right.  Right isn't wrong and wrong isn't right.  Right?  You can't ask for much more than a debate opponent who argues his points unheedingly to their conclusion, so long as no evidence pops up contrary to his points.

guys try to remember what this ridiculous thread is about one guy doesn't like how a large percentage of the other players play the game which I concur "at times" can be annoying if your on the receiving end but when it comes right down to it ITS JUST A DAM GAME. try to step back sometimes and look outside at the larger picture. I have to do it all the time. And to Fugi sir how many posts just like this one have you put up in the last 6 months? have they changed anything? has Hitech stepped out from somewhere and gave you some kinda quota you must meet before he'll make changes that you agree with? the answers to these questions is NO so what is it you hope to accomplish with IMO is ranting. what? what is it? tell you what next time you wanna post one of these why not call Hitech and ask him first..... end all this business before it starts....................... .................TY AND TRY TO HAVE A NICE DAY. :bolt:

Well, your opinion is just that, YOUR opinion. I do find it interesting that if I'm the only guy that seems to have a problem with this issue that a thread started less than 4 days ago can have almost 4000 views. Looks like a number of people are interested in this.

To answer your question, I was serious when I asked my question, "Is this the way the game is going to be played?". I didn't think HiTech would answer publicly, but one he did I refined my questions a bit more, "But i'm serious, Is this what you and Pyro thought you where building towards?

Is this the game play environment that "splitting arenas" and"dar heights" and other changes that you where shooting for?

Do you believe that this is the best way to get the 2 weekers signed up and and to keep those subscribers long term?

To the peanut gallery...

 Other than avoiding this how would you fight it?"

The answers were a bit few and far between, but what it comes down to is this,

1. join the horde, Skill is unnecessary other than having a good aim to shoot over other players shoulders to be able to kill the lone target being ganged by 5-10 of my friends.

2. join a bigger squad with more people on, in essence have a pre-made horde at hand.

3 fly only uber fast planes and pick from the horde.

4. Spend excess time in the tower scouring the map to find smaller fights that may creep up now and again.

5. quit, end your subscription.  

The reason I asked the original question, was I'm not sure if Hitech  and gang fly much any more. In the old days you use to see them on all the time and for the most part people wouldn't pester them with questions. So I was curious if 1. they knew what was going on, and 2 if this is the way they planned on having the game pan out. In the "old days" we fought for everything, it was what the game was all about. Today not so much. You even pointed it out in another post, "that said if Ghi ups a B26s raid to shut y'all down (whomever that may be) Ill be right along with em." In the old days we didn't "shut ya'll down" we fought with you until one side gave up or lost.

So if this is how the game is "suppose" to pan out I wanted to know "how" to play. Well now I do, pick, and get a better aim and become one of the horde. However it seems that I'm not the "only" one who noticed an issue, a number of other people seem to think its a problem as well. So who knows.

Except that every stomper had colts too and two things would be happening: either you'd be pumped full of holes faster than you can count and/or you would end up bound, gagged and humiliated from behind from the first second you waved your little piece in front of the angry mob.

When it's you against 20 others on 100% even terms you just have no win option there. The best you can do is hit and run and leave 90% of the mob unaware of what you even did.

6. Up an I-16 from a nearby, adjacent base. Dive in. Get kills and killed. Fighter hangars pop in the meantime. Up another I-16. Lather, rinse, repeat, as long as the fight lasts.

Ehh some players actually play with survival as a goal so upping an i-16 and doing a suicide run would be about as appealing as upping a set of B24's, bomb and bail out afterwards.

There's a fundamental difference in gameplay styles, some people join the horde, shoot rockets, take a lame shot on vulch, lawndart, up again and repeat with no intention to fly back home. Then there are people who take pride in what they do and try to perform at their best, beat the odds without dying or dying as less bellybutton possible.

Good planned missions are not a problem if it happens on relatively level terms and the opposite side has a fighting chance (which is why I came to the idea of horde consuming temporarily resources so the defender could actually hurt them even though numbers wouldn't be even). A massive horde that succumbs all resistance is a gameplay killer for everyone but the 2-week noob who gets his kicks from the first assist as number 10 passer-by taking a potshot. Or perhaps the 10 year veteran who doesn't have the balls to fight 1:1 to pad score.
