Kudos to the J0kers

[Slade]

I just wanted to pass on appreciation for the J0kers. During a time when the numbers are so low the J0kers manage to help everyone find a good fight.  Even when they dont have a lot of numbers on or eny is not in their favor they stay focused and take bases (or attempt to).

Admittedly they shoot me down more than I do them...at least there is a good fight to be had!

Kudos to them.

is this a joke? they are awful for the game. 77 and 64 vs 33 and they were hiding from combat doing noe missions on Tuesday and probably doing the same right now.  people logging off in droves because of it.

[Slade]

Yep they can be sneaky.  They are base takers.  That is what they do.  They like any squad dont tend to announce when they are taking a base.  I have no problem finding them most of the time. 

It also seems to be true that when a base becomes to hard to get they go elsewhere.  Still pretty easy to guess where they are going next.

I am in here for air combat.  If I wanted to site-see I'd play Microsoft Flight Sim.

Jokers Chokers are good snacks...

[VuduVee]

slade, you mustve gotten drunk at lunch today. you may come to AH to fight, but they dont. they do noe's on undefended bases vs the least amount of people as there possibly can be. there was 77 bish, 64 knits vs 33 rooks tuesday.  Jokers, Alchemists and G3-mf doing noe raids vs 33 rooks. pathetic!  i wouldnt call that promoting combat. i would call it game killing considering how many people logged off when they got on after work and seen that rooks were already so far behind and flustered that there is no use in staying logged in. basically what it amounts to is a small group of people manipulating the game of everyone else who have NO CHOICE in the matter because we have to work in the daytime.

Heck I love kill'n J0kers. Cool to get them all in one place.  More targets.

Too each his own VuduVee

I have had my fair share of time getting murdalized by J0ker and the boys when I flew Rook and Knight (and getting kills in here and there), and it can be frustrating fighting them, for sure.  But now as a Bish, I can say that they are a good bunch to play alongside with.  In a fight over a base, they communicate non-stop with everyone else, and are good team mates.  I think they get a bit of a bad rap.  As for doing NOE when it's 77 v 64 v 33, NOE is fun.  This is a game, after all.  They're playing the game in a way that is fun for them.  Would it suck to be on the other side?  Probably, if all you're after is a furball.  But we all play the game the way that's most fun for ourselves.  If the day ever comes when I'm forced to stay online and play the game the way someone else wants me to, that person better be prepared to pay my subscription.

lol... the Jokers got NOTHING on the the dumbf***ery of a couple other squads.

Whos the bigger looser, the loser who names his squad after himself or the loser who joins said squad.

Joker is my hero

Slade's describing a normal day in the MA back when 400 players a night was the average with 500-600 on weekends. A 300 player night worried people that the game was dying. And most missions were exactly what the Jokers did last night. And everyone whined it was killing the game. But, they were whining about an environment so target rich, just spraying around with a field gun during any NOE attack got a few kills.

The jokers ran NOE hoard missions with what looked like at least one squad playing furball diversion to sand bag the knights into ignoring their bases being stolen. Sucks to be a lone wolf on the receiving end of the hoard when you aren't used to that kind of game play anymore.

"But we all play the game the way that's most fun for ourselves.  If the day ever comes when I'm forced to stay online and play the game the way someone else wants me to, that person better be prepared to pay my subscription."
and there we have it. a few players having fun. the rest getting on after work and seeing that its pretty much game over and they never even had a choice or a chance. and then logging off. then the next person sees the same thing and logs off. (this surely cant be good)

in my mind, theres no need to do noe's vs any team that has HALF the people and who is also fighting 2 teams. how great can you really be if thats your big win? the only challenge in that is not crashing into a tree.

Sunday I thought it was very effective for the Joker's to have someone in each country doing strategic bombing.

Sure hope they weren't communicating back and forth across country lines

And if you believe that I have some beach property in Arizona I would be willing to sell
