Quit whining about ENY and learn how to fly something else.

Friken crybabies

Tell that to new guys in a p40 while they get clubbed by la7s... even if the figure out how to switch,  they couldnt.

Keep in mind this post shouldnt be about us that have been here for years.

It should be about new guys and the ones that left.

I hate to put it like this,  but most of you commenting negatively towards change,  i could spank p40 vs la7..

But remember,  this isnt about us.

If you cant see side switching times any ENY arent working against eachother.. I am not going to draw you a picture.

I believe the whole reason side switching was lengthened so long was folks changing sides to locate CVs and other sundry stuff.

I personally think 3 hours is a better period of time for the rule.

I thought so too, but in the past few threads about this, people have posted a link to Hitech explaining it didn't have anything to do with spies. Apparently, there are (simultaneously) too few people who are willing to switch (which causes ENY to go through the roof), and so many people that would switch so often as to have numbers wildly fluctuate and cause greater imbalances if the time switch were shorter. 

If you can make any sense out of that, let me know!

Like Lazer said, this isn't as much about the vets, tho it is they that are posting about this. It greatly effects new players as well. While the vets CAN work around it it has become an increasing problem with the drop in numbers. It is something that COULD be addresses, but isn't.

its more about the small majority that actually hit this forum too.

And the list goes on and on.

Ignore it all you want... reality will soon set in.


Fyi i am in agreement with you.. this wasnt a jab from the "no" club fugi

Plane never mattered to me but I see plenty of complaints about it here and in game that I strongly think it deserves to be looked at...my personal opinion is changing the side switch time to what Bruv suggested in the wishlist furom is the best answer for a lot of the current problems in gameplay especially in off hour times. After you learn a certain amount of ACM...plane doesn't matter except for overall performance against other planes (Similar pilots in a Spit 16 vs K4...Spit 16 will win because it is the better fighter)....so saying to learn another plane is kind of pointless. Dora is probably the easier ride in MA alt compared to the P51D but the pony carries a lot of ord so it gets the lower ENY.....this game has players who never up with ord, should we take away from their fun because a plane carries something they never use???

It's good to see some of the vets actually care about the new player base and not just get their kicks clubbing over and over again

I agree. It shouldnt be about the ones of us who have been here for years. But. Those are typically the people I see whining the most about it.

Also. Keep in mind I started cutting my teeth in this game flying the FM2 and the 109F as my very first main rides here.

You know that I would not mind if it was now and again - but recently it has been just about every time I fly.  I can and do fly other planes but I would prefer to not be ENY locked so often.

Do you happen to remember how insanely boring it would be running into aircraft that could outrun you, and chose to constantly?

The early war rides are fun with the right partner, but you can make your own fun with the late war monsters.  I'm having a ball flying the La-7 and D9 lately for the simple reason that people don't have any choice but to fight me.
