Axis VS Allies arena rotating same arena selection as late war main with a rolling plane set where planes are introduced according to active dates.

This would be WWII compressed into 1 tour (month).

Try it for one month........I guarantee it will be fun.

This is something that has confused me for over 4 years.  Maybe one of the people who asks for it can answer this.

In the previous game I played as well as this one, there was just about always someone asking for an RPS somewhere, but when it was tried anytime I looked, the arena it was in was always a ghost town until it got to late war.

Has an RPS EVER worked in an online flight sim?

If you think you are having a 1v1 in the Main Arena, your SA has failed you.

yes it has, created by hitech himself at WB 2.xx,

a RPS arena, based on a 4 week setup representing the years 39 - 45 was running on different games a couple of years.
I would like to see a RPS over a time of 6 weeks, each week would represent 1 year. An RPS combined with axis vs allies and a possible plane choice based on your skills would end up with, "damn, there comes a TA152 (LA 7 spit 16), he is a good one otherwise he would not be able to get it" That would be my dream areana, because all HO dweebs would never ever get a spit 16 of LA7!

A late war MA with only 2 countries.


and +1 to whoever suggested the ETO and PTO arenas.
The real problem is anyone should feel like they can come to this forum and make a wish without being treated in a derogatory manner.  The only discussion should be centered around whether it would work, or how it would work and so on always in a respectful manner.

An Axis vs Allies arena with very good AI including GV's so that large missions and counter missions with formations of bombers, tank columns etc could launch at several times throughout the day.

The AI slots are replaced by players who join the missions, (even if they are in progress) the AI just augment and fill in so that the missions can always run regardless of how many players join.

The player will never know what he will run into when he joins a mission. Escort and interceptor slots will fill with real players first so the majority of AI will be bombers and GV's but real players can replace any AI slot.

So basically Combat Tour lite.

A tall women arena.

Then you could go to the other country and say "take me to your ladder, see your leader later".

I see 20 players making different mission sets with same objective to overrun defences. If that can be controlled you may have a worthy idea. Would help to get numbers up to. IF they stop changing all around in there and become the AVA again.

Main arena radar and icon settings, axis with all axis planes, allies with all allied planes available. Rework the comms so that the range and squad channels get their own volume. Make a new channel for GV's, make a toggle for range, squad and gv's so that you can hear gv's with range or not. Make the cv's steerable (there's a command called" steady as she goes") it is used to take the swing out of a ship. The current cv's swing way too much for a ship at war. A cap'n would fire a helmsman for the amount of swing we have in this game. Now you can say AVA all you want. I say read the post again and let it sink in. I've never seen a set up like this in AVA in over 5 years. Give this a try and see if you like it.

Not necessarily the AvA but an arena with 2 sided historical plane sets.

I envision it as more automated. Either HTC or CM's load up a series of missions/counter missions that automatically launch throughout the day.

A secret weapons arena of planes that didn't see combat and/or a Korean War arena?

I'd like the WW2 Arena's upgraded at least to 2010 standards - no sense adding a "korea arena" when the current arenas have puffy ack who can nail you at 15k doing 500 mph in a 262.

Or circling a CV at 200MPH, with no puffy ack hits at all for at LEAST 5 minutes.
Then getting nailed at 400mph in a dive from 10K.

 :bhead

Puffy ack makes no sense to me. Manned guns? Fine. Random AI that decides it's your turn to explode? No.

  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.

I'm not sure about Axis VS Allies part.
