Bowla Map This Morning
« on: September 30, 2018, 11:48:53 AM »
  38 Bishops on, and total of both other teams was 38.  the only other base that was flashing was a knight base near a strat.  ENY for Bish was 29.. and basically the odds were about even.  and Bish upping Warhawks and Ki 43s against Spit 8s and Doras.   I can see why players may seek other entertainment options on a Sunday morning.   What is the percentage of players that are for ENY the way it is.   May us a formulation of the 2 op/for teams against the lone one and raise ENY value on some of the planes and GVs.  Does the Competitors War sim games use a similar  formula to AH3 ENY?

Welcome to Aces High weekend play. I mean there are certain ones that only use the weekend for score.

What is the percentage of players that are for ENY the way it is.

50%.

What's happening isn't random, but self-reenforcing. It's more fun to kill than being killed. Hence it's more fun to fly against an enemy with lesser planes. That's true for both countries with the numerical disavantage. The consequence the situation you described.

I logged in 30 minutes ago. Still on. Bish had a few more players than knights. Rooks had the lowest. I'm a knight. Within 30 minutes. All #s were practically even. Rooks had 6 less. No fights for the rooks. They should be taking bases back. Bish and knights will fight for hours trying to take their bases for the win. Knigts and bish both own 25% of rook fields. Knights are currently winning the battle now. Unfortunately on this map would take a while for a rook to join the fight. Rooks have a great chance to take some bases back and start fights.

   CCVI   I would rather go to the strong side because there are more targets., but many would rather win a map than play.  like the old early mid war.  15 players on and all 1 team... laughable.  Your's though , the only reply that merits any thought. the rest just trollers.   My point is ENY doesn't do what it is designed to. and that is level the playing field.

The best fix for BOWLMA is to do the WHEEL OF FORTUNE method I advocated long ago, where each island alternates to a different country all the way around the horn.  ROOK KNIGHT BISH ROOK NIGHT BISH ROOK NIGHT BISH.  That way every country can get to every front with minimal effort.   As it is now, when the Bish Nit pursefight is ignoring Rooks we can fly half way across the map or sit and twiddle our thumbs.

Yeah, ENY is one of those things :bhead I understand WHY it is and WHAT its for,in THEORY at least...but cant wrap my head around what it DOES. To me, it is more a PLACEBO type thing, Sure it sucks to be on the SEAL side, no matter what you are getting hit with. Maybe ENY just means that at least the CLUBBERS arent using Firearms and Aluminum Baseball Bats? As that would be so much worse? Thats how it works, or seems to work from my way of looking at it. Even the side with the ENY can get to play the role of SEAL CUB at times, THIS to me is when ENY really SUCKS. Its hard to up a Ki-43 to stop a swarm of 262s and Tempests swarming your field....yes SOMETIMES THAT IS FUN. It would be more fun IMO to actually be able to up something more capable for defense-(true that is probably the only reason the other side is there,better plane=better odds)...guess I can at least be happy with the fact that AT LEAST there is a fight :rofl

Thats sort of like the way BUZZSAW is..well as far as each team with in easy distance to strike at each other. Its the MOST HATED map we have :headscratch: Thats what I LIKE about Buzzsaw...I can find ANY STYLE of fight I want..even a fight against static buildings if I am feeling anti-social :uhoh

It's not hated because of that (Buzzkill is nothing like what I've described above).  It's hated because it is a goofy map.  Part of the problem for me is how cluttered it looks.   My ADD relapses when I see it.

BowlMA is very well laid out, logical, easy to grasp at a glance.   Buzzkill looks like a Methhead's nightmare.    :devil

Well yes,I have to agree,it is jumbled a bit :uhoh  Action is pretty easy to find though. I am not an AESTHETIC type of player. I see you being like that though, as with SKINNING Planes it is all ABOUT the aesthetics. I am just,look at that RED GUY...hope he wore his Brown pants :devil
