Do you like the Allied vs Axis style of gameplay?
« on: December 06, 2015, 10:55:51 AM »
In an effort to keep the sides balanced throughout the evening would you be interested in dropping the 2 sided Axis vs Allied gameplay and switching to a Side A vs Side B format where both Allied and Axis planes are enabled for both sides?

It would be a big change to the format, but would remove Axis and Allied Side Loyalty... It would Still allow us to track Axis and Allied Airframes so the scoring categories would remain. You could still compete for Axis or Allied Awards so that wouldn't change.

Thoughts?
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!

No - I personally like flying in traditional roles against traditional adversaries.

The way I've always looked at it was something fun for the FSO crowd inbetween FSOs.  FSO is AvA, I like it that way for CC.

I think it's good fun to keep it that way rather than having to have everything exactly fair and balanced.

I like the idea Nef.  This way, you can still have your A/A scoring, but it will be easier to maintain side balances.  Combat challenge doesn't have to be about a "historical" match up, it's about kill'n  :rock

I can go MA 24/7 to have the mix-master. AVA with no icons is awesome!

AvA all the way. To the point that I'm not even a fan of the year-end free for all. I want historical matchups only.

A vs A all the way. It is the reason most of us come here. The MA is there for the free for all and the SPIT DWEEBS galore...   :bolt:
