Forty niners were epic.  Great missions, brought by great leaders.  Amazing the butt hurt went this far, amazing.  They are etched in the hall of fame of aces high.

Boy I remember going on a m3 run and we parked behind a Bute.  A forward observer was on the hill go guide our munitions.  The fire boss gave us direction to aim our guns.  We we have everything ready we let loose. Epic.

Another we got in or boats and drove into the river.  Our destination was 45 miles away, Bish strats.  We did good untill the river had earthen bants we were unable to jump.  Though we ended in fail the mission was, epic.

On my map I have made sure all rivers are clear for boat traffic  :old:
That butt hurt was so strong HTC had to change the game.

that's the kicker.  htc made the game, people simply played the game.  from hq downtimes, white flags, resupplys, central strats, new strat down times, strat positions, and now spawns to strats to combat a player, these "adjustments" have been a confusing attempt to stimulate play and at the same time control and destroy a players tendencies.  This goes against the concept of a free world, directly attacks customers and continues to cause grief.  everyone grieves.

mic drop.

that's three.

Mic drop has now become a term that's lost all meaning through overuse.

i guess i did not type "everyone grieves" correctly.  it was in the tone of rem's everyone hurts. maybe a link would help. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2N_uvnvGbI  .  I found to be a fitting humerus end.

 :D

looks at mic and notices its renewed life and blindingly bright spirit beaming as if praised by Brian himself.  ahhhhhhhhh.

As I recall it took about 8 or 9 trips to get the strat back to 100%. No other team mates were helping this particular time. Would I have preferred to have been doing something else? YES! But I made the choice to spend the time on resup just like the original poster made the choice to make the strat run.

So the game made you take a choice to do something you didn't like to do (as much as something else, at least). Something's not right here.

last i checked the game is hard enough. 

Last time I checked, the game is not hard enough.

HTC had to make some concessions in certain areas to keep subscribers.....which is OK.

I'd hate to find perfect realism in an empty arena.

Now the 49ers like missions that the average player would never attempt........sometimes because it's exceedingly difficult, sometimes to explore what is rarely explored.....just to see if it's possible, and sometimes to make a big noise.

It's all fun but don't think that the 49ers aren't there defending thier country's own strats or resupplying them when the rest of the country can't be bothered to do either.

Bombing and bailing is no lamer than landing your kills. In doing so you deny someone their right to shoot you down. Even if you are out of ammo and gas, you should fly around until shot down for the fun it provides to your fellow combatants.

agreed, why can't people simply play the game as intended, try to win, try not to die. Pretty simple if you ask me. Too many egos worried about their stats and score. Picking and kill stealing is at an all time high.

Are you kidding?

Bombing and landing is the same as landing kills.   Bombing and bailing is griefing.  Gaming the game.   Flush out your headgear people.

Kill stealing is very difficult now. Once critical damage is achieved additional hits do nothing. In AH2 if you followed a plane down and hammered it after let's say a wing came off you could out damage the other pilot and steal the kill (as long as the dying planes pilot was still in it). As an example had a squaddie flame a 38 the other night, I hit him with a burst just after he caught fire, not even an assist due to critical damage. Now had I hit the 38 prior to him catching fire I would have at least gotten an assist.

Yes this is sarcasm. You should not be required to fly around until killed, and thus bombers should not be required to do that either.  I was pointing out the hypocrisy of fighter pilots.  :salute
