real war
« on: April 16, 2011, 07:51:48 PM »
Sure wish one arena was more than take off grab alt(or dont) kill two guys get shot down by said two guys while rtb. Just gets borning furballing over and over and over again. Wish there was some strategy or somthing to it or a rolling map  or something. Just gets stale after 6 years to me. Needs to be more of a war/flight game to me that a pure fighter sim. Why have the MAs after all there just glorified DAs.  Sorry i just miss the game and wish it was a bit molre.

it's your choice, the game is what you make of it. Nobody is forcing you to just furball.

Then join the scenario's! If you want realism, that's the closest we got. My first one was the Battle of Germany, was intense and amazing, heart pounding the whole time during the fights.

Unless you want to fly in the WWI arena.

Wab, you can use your imagination. Fly at 13,000 feet and pretend you are on a combat patrol over the lines. See who comes up to fight you. If no one comes, that is a rrealistic WWI combat patrol over the lines :)

I know what you are saying though.

Game is totally able to do what you requested.
You can join a squad
fly in a scenario
roleplay a bit and fly as if you were actually a pilot
bomb a base
resupply a base under fire with a goon
take command of a CV and attack an enemy field
provide cap over a carrier or field
fly close air support during a tank battle
escort a group of heavies to their targets and back home
try to kill bruv or grizz :(
join manawars kill club :bhead
be there when Dr7 gets his 300,000th kill :huh
get killed by GHI's IL2 when you dive in for an easy kill. :uhoh
Listen to anything DMGOD says :noid
Waste a 262 with a zero :x (unless Grizz is in it, then that will not happen)
Plink airplanes taking off with an M4 loaded with HE :bolt:
HO a P51 with a FWA8 and wait... :ahand
AND....safely drink while flying :cheers:

To much fun to be had :banana:

Sure wish one arena was more than take off grab alt(or dont) kill two guys get shot down by said two guys while rtb. Just gets borning furballing over and over and over again. Wish there was some strategy or somthing to it or a rolling map  or something. Just gets stale after 6 years to me. Needs to be more of a war/flight game to me that a pure fighter sim. Why have the MAs after all there just glorified DAs.  Sorry i just miss the game and wish it was a bit molre.

If I have to pretend I'm flying in a full featured arena, can I just pretend I'm paying a subscription too?

I thought the same thing. The big map has no strategy and takes to long to win, so it's more like random activity with missions that provide some strategy, but the missions are one sided, meaning only one side is getting organized and strategizing. The response is a random one.

I thought mini arenas the teams can sign out would be cool. opposing squads or groups could open a lobby and fight it out. The maps would be semetric and have 3 or 4 bases per side. Arena rules and set up would be variable and set by the person who opens the lobby.

the benefits over MA play are that you can coordinate all players and a strategy before hand. Both teams study the map, decide on how many players, lives etc. and then make a gameplan for taking over the map and winning the game. Gameplay starts when both sides hit the READY button. Scores are local to the single event.

There could be team sign ups by posting start times and open slots just like missions.

Maybe I'll post in a new topic.

Real war? Okay, you die once and your subscription auto-cancels and you
can never come back.

How's that for 'real war'?
