I have a heard time believing that's true but at the same time sounds like some BS HTC would actually implement.

It could be by perking some ordnance.

I have always been a friend of this thought and was eagerly awaiting the once promised perked ordnance system... which never happened.

It could be by perk penalizing bomb and bail players.  

Too many ways to get around it. A few years ago even HT himself opened a thread about it askign for suggestions. Every 'solution' that came up was either not workign at all or had serious downsides.
i don't think perking the ords is a good idea--that would be to much like "x-box-playstation"game to me.you already have to pay perks for certen tanks and planes----why should i have to pay for ords..it's not right.-----AND if you start penalizing bomb and bail players they WILL quit--because you are telling them to play the game your way. and thats not right

I was Co alt/E with a Pony D the other day iwas in a Bravo. The guy immediately turned and dived away then ran like the wind.
When two of his buddies showed up higher,he reached down and discovered his (as Shida would put it) 'deploy balls lever', I died in the subsequent 3 up hoping melee.
When.I looked who it was they had a K/D of 10:1+
Score is a load of Tosh, especially in that case

Wow... Widewing is making a bunch of them mad this week. As I said in another thread, Widewing is one of the nicest guys you'll meet within Aces High. What gives him credibility is the fact he is one of the most knowledgeable regarding historical aviation within the Aces High community and even beyond.

That said, I'll put my money on Widewing in the duel.

your mr niceguy is quite the condescending troll lately  :headscratch:
They're casting their bait over there, see?

Not close, WW just provided a needed, lightly pressured smack down on the deserving.  Not his fault some carry over the butt hurt from the game to the forums.

A game where people have thousands of posts denying noobs wishes and picking on people, and they wonder why this game has so few players...

He made it to 17 posts before bailing. Personally I haven't had time to read the thousands of posts you refer to so I'll just take your word for it.

FYI, players do not deny "noob wishes".  If you post something here and I don't agree with them, should I then hold my opinion so only people you agree with should post.  Think about it, many of us have played this game for years and HiTech has run it for years.  I find it condescending that a new player should think his ideas should have much weight.  Most of us have seen the same wishes over and over again and know they would not be good for the game.

Did you get a chance to fly the FSO on Friday Poison?  If so, what did you think about it?

I've known Widewing for about 6 years now, and he is one of the more level headed guys in AH. He is just responding to some of the most inane complaints regarding his style of game play.

Heed some good advise.
Poison, you still should take WW / tredlite up on his offer to meet you in either the TA or da ...

If his offer is still on the table... Let him observe, evaluate then let him let you know on things you are doing right, doing wrong and how you can go about improving on certain aspects...

Also, I recommend you and everyone else, to take the notion of knowing how good your opponent might be by looking at their current score or even looking at their long time stats... and erase that thought process from your mind!

A great many of the worst or lower scoring players, are actually better than most who have a score rank 800/900/1000 or better...

I think you would walk away with some excellent tips from WW and would have a new found appreciation as well...

Cheers
