Then they shouldn’t get ponies and I don’t.  :salute

Got it..... so if low team has 20 players.... only 20 can up on the other teams. It all works out. Not. Where do you stop. When you log on it puts you on low number team? No changing sides? All controlled by game? Where?

ENY was/is the lesser of the evils to balance.

“Balance” is undefinable. If 10 people are working together it’s a horde that rolls the map. J0KERs do it all the time. Conversely, teams with more players get rolled because the other two chess pieces fight the team with the most players. That happens very often. ENY is an equation that has no idea whats going on in the game and hence has very limited ability to correct some straw-man issue of “balance”.  :salute

It is 100% effective pissing off players that pay full price and and can’t fly their favorite ride.

Nobody has ever kept me from flying F4U's. I just go to the O'club and hit the sacred button to switch thy oath of country, Commit blasphemy and fly F4U's.

If you want to great. But players don't like having to chose between teammates and favorite planes. Why should they when the benefits to game play are nebulous at best.

There's always the option of getting better and not depending on late war speed to save your ass. It's not like eny just started a couple weeks ago, it's been here long before me. I adapted and learned planes up and down the roster instead of throwing a fit.

snobby answer. your assumption that people need crutches is not a accurate one. sometimes  you are the lone defender at a base fighting off multiple tanks and m3s and you just need an D-Hog with ords. NOPE! ENY has shut off all loaded US fighters.

I'd say its accurate, if you can't function in anything else then you have your crutch. Also may want to take a look at what planes carry bombs, F4U-1 is in the 20's and carries a 1000 lber. It's also not the the only one.

Seeing as one of the last nights if eny i remember seeing you in a Jug I'd say no. Who ever else was with you that night in the IL2 and P39 looking for GV's managed to put their big boy pants on and fought through the disadvantage of out numbering the opponent.

so an il2, p39 and p47s looking for gvs had big boy pants,  but late war monsters do not,  interesting.

Real men, like Sean Connery, wear a kilt while playing Aces High.
