you will get better with your SA and you will get better at your angles fights.

QFT. Some like to go a bit further with the challenge of landing every sortie

[The Fugitive]

And some like to see the other guys fight back. Clubbing baby seals in a horde isn't a fight, and get boring pretty quick.

Make it easier for small groups to shut down a big horde push so there is a reason for the horde to keep some people in the back. Like lowering the amount of barracks on the field. Or removing M3s so you need to capture a field with air.

It's already easier, any horde will be flying with bombs.  Porking barracks isn't very difficult and neither is porking ords.  Most players will lose interest before they run a resupply truck and light fighters always have an advantage over heavy ones.

Except entire countries don't spend hours porking bases, in which you vtards only need 1 base to up 50 from and overwhelm a base regardless.

What I find ironic about all this hoarde talk is that alot of you have joined these mega squads which are hoardes onto themselves. How in the world can some of you complain about hoardes when you're a member of one?!

Do you really want to get rid of hoardes? Start by limiting squads to 10 members and do away with all this multi wing crap.

[Changeup]

Oh...one last thing...being a veteran myself, this isn't a war game either because there is no war to win.

 Its is a WWII flight sim with environments designed to facilitate the engagement of aircraft and ground equipment to allow that environment to survive longer to perpetuate that engagement for as long as it takes the fun police to drop the FH.....with indifference to vDallas, if you can get as many base hoarders as humanly possible to go along with you, base taking will always be easier on the player than multi-aircraft engagements....but the player will get better at nothing other than flying and dying for someone else to win nothing.

Carry on...

Their reasons are "it's the only way to defend myself against the horde"

yup. and my answer to that is to break these guys up and scatter them between the 3 countries

I'll go into more detail about the relative ease of porking.

It's not uncommon for my squad to pork an entire front or parts of both fronts or if we're really sick of losing fields just pork everybase on both fronts.  We do this as a squad and with the help of other squads as well as the occasional request for help on green text.  We might not get it done with 1 sortie each but a person rarely needs to fly more than 2 or 3 porking sorties to get this done.

Good porking helps you dictate where and who your foe attacks.  It's a lot more effective than getting off the topic of poor sportsmanship to cry about the so called hordes.

I don't like being substantially outnumbered either but it's going to happen from time to time and that's just part of life.  

I'm think that the horde is a lot like string theory.  Nobody can agree on what it is exactly, just that it's real.

Has Aces High ever implemented some sort of auto assigning of countries?  I wouldn't be opposed to trying it so long as it keeps squads together.  I think that the game would be a bit friendlier if we all flew on the same side from time to time.  My biggest gripe about the game is hearing all the paranoid nutjobs who don't want fly on the same front as someone who just transferred from another country.

[f35raptor]

The one thing im getting tired of is ppl saying we dont have enough time to up and d efend the base, thats a load of bs, 8 out o10 times us brigade members willl most likly be at at an alt of tenk alt depending on the alt of an enmy base, also if you ppl would actually lool at your sectors you would be able to see when a missions is coming , hint all the red dar in the sector.

This is a hoarde plain and simple. Why on earth does a squad with 31 members need the help of other squads to pork the front. I myself can pork 2 bases in 1 sortie. What you refer to as porking is actually flattening bases along whole fronts. Why else do you need the kind of numbers you suggest?
You say you wouldn't be opposed to auto assigning countries "as long as it keeps your squad together"   Well the point of auto assigning countries is to break up these gangs  

You also go on to say that talking about "so called hoardes" is getting off topic. Well the title of the thread is "Teh Hordez".


I'm sorry but I just don't get why so many choose to fly with 20 guys on squad channel. Can you even hear what's going on with so much chatter on the radio?

(Uptown.....shhhhhhhhhh......t hey are the fight these days........shhhhhhhhh)

[Shuffler]

No. Your over thinking the problem . If you want a swirling mass of planes roughly equal , that requires 2 hordes meeting , so go fly with hordes . If you take the time to study your map you won't ever get into an 8v1 unless you choose to . If neither of these is what you want...go to the DA . Outside of this just quit . The game has ALWAYS been this way and it always will . Adapt or move on . But from your response I gather you don't realize the fun of doing your best in a fight you cannot possibly win . Challenges aren't for everyone .

Open your mind, read and think about what guppy posted instead of just chanting.
