Anyone else miss the old days of FSO?
« on: November 02, 2015, 09:05:52 PM »
Flying in FSO you don't notice it as much until you get to draft the orders.  135 pilots don't cover nearly as much ground as 235 used to.

I agree, the best setups recently have been a two objective per side to bring back that roughly 30 v 30 action.

Agreed on both.

There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

I walked away from FSO early this year and the hour it takes place was definitely one of the factors in my decision.
