Nice crowd tonight
« on: October 14, 2016, 10:12:50 PM »
I counted 206 at peak. Some great furballs, good GV'ing. I love this desert map and its good to see the GVs getting better cover to hide in even tho I dont GV much. AH-II was a little to easy to spot and kill GVs, this one seems more balanced. At least to me.

Was pleased to find many old friends, AH3 is bringing them back.  I am mystified why so many people want to drive trucks, but I didn't have a problem finding aerial combat.

Good times.

Absolutely! Last night was the most fun I have had in a long time! Even landed my first 4 kill vehicle(tank) streak! It did help, that Hurless was AFK and the enemy was moving directly behind him!!! No range questions needed :x The only thing that I wasnt thrilled about was all the game bashing and insults in the various radio channels. Sure I can un tune 200, but i am talking mostly on country channel. I do believe that the concision opinion these days is that we want more players, correct? So please air your disputes in private messages :aok I dont think that is too much to ask. Since AH3 has come online, I know for a fact we have had 6 prospects that left. Five of them didnt even finish their 2 week trial. This really upsets me! I didnt get to be here when the players were in big numbers, so please watch how you interact in the game. To me, its seems I am being robbed of that potential situation.

i am hoping and praying that this remains the trend....   i dream of AH the way it was when i played way too much, circa 2009-2010.....   i miss logging into an arena where you had your pick of the fights....   when there'd be 6 furballs going all the time, all over the map; back when 600 people would be logged in on a week night.....   i have dreams about it lol.   i daydream about it at work lol.   someday....   someday i really hope to be back.   this is hands down the greatest game ever created.

Yet on the same day, when I logged into the Melee Arena at the beginning of Euro prime at about 19:15 hours CEST there were only 36 players on. The lowest I personally have ever seen in an arena not hit by a reset.  :frown:

Picking up the Euro players again would be huge. At least some of them.

Going back down memory lane I can remember signing in around noon here, which was prime Europe, and there would be 150 in each map, both Yanks and Euro's, and they would be some of the best players in the game. Nights were for targets but days were for really getting better.

Heck I remember a fair amount of Japanese being spoken on Vox at the right times.
