ENY is fine just the way it is. Only my opinion, but I wanted to say it just to counter all the whining.

+1

And I'm a Knight, so it is against me because the Knights have the numbers.

Can I just get a list of all the changes you won't make because it's me suggesting them, would save us both a lot of time.

You knew that answer was coming...

You're dead right on this issue, IMHO, as is Rapier.   Totally in agreement.

Completely disagree.

The ENY monster has NEVER been this big a PITA.   In the past it was an  occasional thing.   It is now happening on a constant basis even during off peak times.

You said you tweaked it so I will give it a shot and compare, but it is not some excuse to complain.
I suggested town resupply was OP after a year being away...during that time is when the overhaul on the strats and stuff happened (2012??) but yea it's because I am unhappy :aok

Hi Popey,
The problem is still 2:1 odds makes all attackers look good regardless of downtime, not all pilots are here to win the map, but are trying to survive in a many vs many -> defenders fighters vs fighters/bombers/attack against overwhelming odds.

The lower side can pretty much only react to the numerous sides attacks, even if downtime of a field is short.


This is why having numbers affect downtime can be a simpler solution.  The "local area" (to be defined) numbers can be computed at the moment a field object is destroyed.  So, 10 attackers and 3 defenders in the "local area" at the moment the ack is killed:  downtime is 30% of the nominal value.  A couple of attackers RTB or get killed, now it is 8 v 3 when the radar is killed:  downtime is 38% of the nominal value.

Doesn't matter when or how far away the attackers launched, or how many on either side are sitting in the tower.

I'm sure it could be gamed, but at least no one is deprived of their favorite ride.

POTW just announced going rook until this blows over and the 80th already went. Watch, now the hoard will go rook and start this up all over again. By the way, all yall rook who have been on the nightly walk out, if you show up all together to enjoy having numbers again. With the 80th and POTW in rook land, this whining will start back up here in the forums for either the knights or bish...... :rolleyes:

yes because it doesn't matter if 2 squads switch it's still an overall problem...Knights only recently got hit with the numbers...before it was bish complaining about it and before that rooks....I still think it's tied to the side switch time being too long.

I think getting a small change to the M3's impact on town object rebuild time might be a longer pier to walk down at this point. The side switch time pier seems to be unavailable for dead horse beating displays until further notice.
