Maps are way too big
« on: July 18, 2020, 01:03:43 PM »
There are less players than the good old days so please give us some smaller maps.
Getting so hard to find a fight.
Maybe smaller maps and more action will bring new players.
Still a great game, especially in VR but it is boring with no action.

Crater Map is quite slow this morning-early afternoon. Way too many fields. Small dars with 1 red dot on the map... def need smaller maps.

Yes, and the fights have been....meh.  I tried for 4 hours tonight to find a fight.  Ack runners.  Bounce and runners. Ack runners again.  Being called a picker in a Yak9T (ENY35) at 6K co-alt with F4U4.... who ran to ack.

Next sortie...I put myself on the deck to get bounced....pleading for a fight... drew a con all the way down.... who then ran when the tables turned just to neutral.  Neutral fight.... run away! Seriously.

I came back looking to catch what used to be, and found that it's basically kind of gone.  And that makes me a bit sad. The good sticks seem to have vanished.  I used to always be able to find a fight that had me sweating and pulling whatever trick I could find to stay in it.  Now it seems the fights are all just E-fests.  Shrug.

Smaller maps won't change the players.  And the players don't seem to want to fight.... they just seem to want the easiest kills they can get.
