I dont know how this thread turned into a GV vs plane thing.... but here is my 2 cents on the matter.

When I started to play i joined for the air combat part but I could not last five minuets in the air due to the steep curve of learning to fly. I did not quit the game cause I sucked,  when I got frustrated in the air I played the ground game and felt like I was contributing to my country's cause and that helped me stick with the game longer. 5 years later and I still suck in the air  and am even worse in a tank but I am having a blast learning something new every time I up.

So dont look at it as the GV's are taking away from the game cause if they were not here I probably would not be either, they may just be a stepping stone to learning the game.

I suspect you aren't alone.  Good observation.

Wouldn't know, never saw him post anything intelligent so I added him to the ignore list. Sad when a person cant come up with a logical rebuttal and does nothing but post poor jokes.

Logged in tonight, about 170 players in the MA. Only fight going was the Rook horde, which I participated in . Spent a number of flights chasing Bish into their ack.

Waystin probably decided to post that right when he read "Rumor has it"

So you should have come into Beta.  Cuervo, adb, Hanzup, Shaggy and I were having some truly memorable fights, and you would have been welcome.

Nobody likes being confronted with truth.  You post crap as quick as you can make it up.

I said "rumor has it" because HTC never officially, to my knowledge posted as to why that map was pulled. It could have been a technical issue like the original "Pizza" map, but we never heard anything on the Donut map.

The point was the players "believe" that it was removed because the furballers were hurting the game. Just like the "rumored" cheats, perception can hurt the game more than the truth.

Personally I like to see strat bombers, GVers, base takers and so on. The more the merrier. While I preffer to fight in fighters I'm open to all kinds of game play. The issue is the lack of fights. Too many players running from fights, too many players bailing when they get in trouble, too many players hiding.

The game shouldn't be made to cater to one style of play other than a basic commonality..... combat.

I agree it shouldn't be catered to any sort of player but rumors are just rumors.

and if the rumors aren't dispelled by management, they become truth...... as far as the multitude goes.

You should edit that with some "Thee"s and "Thy"s.

icepac not everyone has the time or inclination to learn new things. The only reason I'm here is for dogfighting. It's the thing I enjoy and it's what I've played, virtually exclusively, for over 20 years. I care nothing about the 'war'. If this game can't offer P2P WW2 aerial combat fighting, then I'll need to find one that will, just like I did at the end of Fighter Ace.

My biggest frustration with this game is the amount of time it takes to find a fight. I've spent many an hour of my precious and limited gaming time chasing dar bars. Without that, or even the ability to see where the friendlies are, Yesterday was, as Rud3boi says, a night ruined.

Driving for an hour is nothing new. It's boring for those that like to fight.
