CPR for Aces High
« on: August 11, 2013, 01:19:41 AM »
Some suggestions to help the game stagnation issue:

Monday – Bomber Day -no DARBAR...applies to bombers only.  This gives the buff players a chance to reap the rewards of long treks.

Tuesday – GV Day – unlimited proximity approach to any town or base without flashing until you fire the first shot.  Then game on.

Wednesday – Normal Day – the usual boring no chance of anything game.

Thursday – No Perk Cost Day – take anything you want, no cost.

Friday – No ENY Day – self explanatory.

Saturday – Perk Day – land anything vs. bailing/ditching/killed get a Bonus Perk Point.

Sunday – NASCAR Day – take any base using only GV’s via Mission Set-Up and all participants get a Bonus Perk Point.  Coul be applicable to Bomber & Goon missions too via Mission Set-Up.

#1 No. Gives the bombers too much advantage. If they want to live longer, go higher or learn to aim. If they die, they die. Same with fighters.
#2 No. Gives too much advantage to the GVs in terms of base capture.
#3 Then why do you play?
#4 No. 262s everywhere, not to mention F4U-1C's. A few players have said here if that ever happened, they simply wouldn't log in.
#5 No. Self explanatory.
#6 Wouldn't mind this one. Don't need it, but couldn't hurt either.
#7 Hmm.. Sounds reasonable, changes the pace on missions at least, give an incentive to try something different.

I don't mean to be negative or a jerk. Just stating my opinion, some-what respectively.  :cheers:  :salute

Because in that case for me Wednesday and Saturday would be the only good days for playing. Buffs seem to do pretty good for example the knights HQ and strats were down frequently yesterday.

You put some thought into this but sorry, I do not like the concept. It would definitely not be for every week as it'd disrupt ordinary gameplay too much. Too many players would disagree with this.

For number 4 instead of free, how about reduced cost for perk planes.
Hogs would be at about 10,
tempest around 15-22ish
262 around 80
b29 about 50
mossie 16 about 10
ar234, around 20

It would be fun to have a couple of hours a week in the ma where all perk rides are free.  call it friday "happy hour" and have it 3 hours before fso leaving enough time for fso.  if you havent landed died or crashed when your 2 hours are over then you get charged full price if lost.  or as usual ht can just do a system reset :)

you dont want me to ho, dont point your plane at me.

It's all gamy BS. It would be fun only the first time it happened and then would get old real fast.

You want to infuse a bit of action in the game, try something different. Jump in a fighter now and then and fight to the death, no HOs, No running, just fight until your down. Same with a GV, get away from the spawn camp. Drive out and about to find where the enemy is running up to a spawn and ambush them on the way.

Stop doing the same old same old.

And instead of going with the horde, go against it and kill it.

If people would get out of their comfort zones and not always use their favorite plane/tank or "the best tool for the job", they might find things are much more interesting. 
Some people fly the same plane, the same way, every single day, for years on end.  Yawn.

If any of these ideas from the original poster was implemented, I would never return to Aces High.

:airplane: I have said this before and I will say it again! All Aces High has to do to really improve membership is just add a few things which couldn't be much trouble to add!
#1- Every see an airport with no aircraft sitting around on the ramp and in the hangars? No
#2- What is wrong with being able to destroy truck convoys resupping bases? Nothing that I can see
#3-How about some clouds in the game that doesn't kill frame rates? Other flight sim's have them, with no cost of frame rates that I can see.
#4- Cutting down on pilot wounds, its getting so you can't get a Spit anywhere around a firing gun without a pilot wound.
#5- Do away with "auto" ack...make all guns manable!
#6- Add an ASRB-17, complete with "Dumbo" life raft for crew of sinking ships. Give perks for successful launching of dumbo within say 1 mile of sinking ship.
#7- Add some "sonar" pings, when in the conning tower of carrier for atmosphere?
#8- Make base able to be captured, if 10 pilots bail and walk to map room, being able to defend ones self with his 45.
#9- Stop ME163 and 262 from being able to shoot down B-29's, they didn't during the war and they shouldn't be able to here!!
#10- Add an "Instructors available" tab on home page of Aces High for new players, and make it able for the new guys to be able to contact them. I will do this at any time, at no charge to anyone.

Can't wait to see the "nay-sayers" comments on this reply!! LOL
Blue Skies and wind at my back and wish that for all!!!
