If I had my way I'd partition off 25% space left in the fuel tank of my Friedrich. It would be filled with tea, with a direct link to my in c-pit tea pot.  :D

Indeed ENY was a complete joke last night in LWA I will agree.

Bish  &  Knights about 121-122 ish each

Rooks  171

Rooks had an ENY of 1.6 for about 5 minutes then nothing.....NO ENY.   I logged. 

Not that it matters WHO's side had what number, it doesn't.  I change sides if I want to.  It's the system that does not work. 

Any system that allows ANY side to have 50+ player advantage and still be able to up whatever uber rides they care to does not work even in the loosest sense of it's existence.

It would be far better for HTC to admit the current ENY system in LW arena does not work, especially in prime-time weekends when arena populations are the highest (worse yet on small maps), and trash that failed system and have no system at all rather than to continue to defend a system that does absolutely nothing for what HTC tells us it's supposed to.

I'm sure it works fine for the handful of those who do EW and MW where 7 on one side and one or none on another is an issue (percentages).  In LW, yeah, it's a joke.

Oh, and before those who live their lives in bondage of the 12 hour switch rule attempt to use that worn out lever as a solution to this dilema note that those on the 171 side made no attempt to hop to any of the lower team sides as a self-induced balancing fix.  It never happened.  Why should they when there was no ENY kicking in to keep them from upping their favorite uber ride.  If ENY had done it's intended job there may had been that small price to pay--and incentive to help the imbalance by switching.  It doesn't now and didn't when we could hop at will every hour.

then why get so upset.  current system no eny,  no system no eny.  most likely you got frustrated about something else and logged just like I did.  I dont really like that map and having to chase vtards all over so I went to play wot.

I didnt consider yesterday a waste of my time but more of a waste of good beer I bought  :cry.

Percentage 101

Ex. A  121/171 = .71 or 71% Rooks have force 29% larger than Bish/Knights
Ex. B   50/100 = .5 Rooks STILL have 50 more players but they have a force that is 50% LARGER than other countries.

It goes by percentage, not by # of players

Carry on

Whatever it goes by needs an adjustment if one team can have 65 more players and no restrictions.

Herr Schnagel,
We need a chart to show what percentage of Ho, ENY, or
other threads of this type on BBS :aok

                                                                                                                                   :cheers: Oz

Amazing after all the posts that some folks still don't get the fact that WE KNOW IT'S A PERCENTAGE THING.
The problem is that it fails under many conditions such as the many scenarios posted in this thread.

Threads like these could be stopped in their tracks if hitech, pyro, or other such admin "in the know" would comment on the issue, then perhaps put a tid-bit of information on the home page that an be referenced every time there is a chicken little screaming that the sky is falling.   :aok

I for one think that ENY does not go far enough, but that is my opinion.  But then again, the ENY, OBJ value, OBJ hardness, and many other items are completely arbitrary and are up to changing as HTC sees fit.  Things like the speed of an aircraft, thickness of tank armor, and weight of an ordnance load is not arbitrary since those are NOT up for interpretation, those are absolute based on actual hard data.

They most likely will not as you can't please everyone. Some want to be on the low number team, some on the high number team.

adjustments,yes but why restriction? Better start a proportionally perking according with Eny. If you want your P51,enjoy it,but pay 10-20perks. I've seen many times buffs high bombing HQ,and having over 5 can't use the Me163. Well,  me163 shouldn't be subject to eny,only perks.
