You seem to have missed Hitech's post about the game balance pre-ENY ;)

So let them fly La-7s, with 2 guns, not the rare 3-gun La-7 with 50% more fire-power

I think it will be the other way around. ENY tries to address teh "Hey we're being hoarded" whine as if players being hoarded will not whine about being hoarded because they are being hoarded by P-40. I think no reduction in hoarding whine is produced by the effectof ENY.

New whine is introduced "Hey I hate ENY I can't fly my La7"

So no loss in Hoarding Whine + New Whine = more whining. Not less.  :salute  :)

Hold the phone.  Your math is wrong.  It should be:

{1 + OldWhinex(Hoarding^ENY/(1+Hoarding))}/NewWhine < $14.95

Your mathematical notation is incorrect, by the way.

ENY - A great concept.  I understand the intent and I agree with it.

HOWEVER.....it causes people to leave the game because they cannot fly the plane they want.  Anyone who thinks ENY is not an issue, spend some time logged in when ENY is in full force.....just log in and look at the chat buffer.


I do not know the answer.  My personal preference is no ENY ever. 

I was advised by another player tonight that I should embrace EW and MW planes and ENY would not be an issue.  I understand and accept the approach.....BUT...I want to fly a P51.  It really is a simple as that.  When you take that away from me I log off.  Is it that hard to understand??????

Just even up teams and your set. If you do not want to do that then log off. That helps the game.
