Have I been gone that long?

[Morpheus]

The title pretty much says it all concerning this thread or any of my questions. I looked forward to seeing a good deal of the old would still be here in use. To cut this to the chase... Is there no more D/A? I used to spend days which then evolved into a week trying to get one move/merge/I used to spend 100's of hours out of a weeks' time in there with Nomak or a good amount of my squad too.

It's not the same DA if you're thinking of when it had a functional furball lake and multiple areas.

Now, it's H2H air starts co-alt at various alts. The other features in that arena are... not working...  people still do use it, but nothing like before.

What's stopping you from the MA?

Would be sooooooo easy just to turn the lake back on and make a bunch of us Airheads happy

? LOL! ok so condescending and belittling concerning a valid question of this game... What's stopping me from the MA? My beloved squad and the excessive comradery we all as we all would talk about any of our a2a battles... That and I know only a small handful of the people in the MA now so it's nowhere near as fun as it once was! But life changes over time I know...Good and bad... I never liked the good things dying with time.

So two things I wonder now. Please confirm right or wrong... The strive to obtain and gain better forms of ACM is gone now? OMG, I noticed this in part to my semi-return. I used to just about live in that DA with my good friends I got from AH. That is only a fond memory of how this game was? sheesh

Morph <S>
out.

I used to run a map kinda like it in player area but most of the time it was empty so it wasn't worth the CPU cycles.

If it's not something on the front tab, it's invisible.

That's been one of my biggest gripes about the clipboard. There just needs to be on one main tab with all the game types.

I've made some really in depth post about the Match Play but it falls to deaf ears. A lot of things need to be fixed. Unfortunately there is no where to even free fight without setting up your own arena if you want to fly with multiple people. That is the biggest gripe about the current match play. You have to fly against AI and you can't fight 2v2 and up. I don't even know why a scoring model was implemented but it's unnecessary.

I wish there was just a simple DA arena with the airspawns and a simple match play area with 2 sections. One for fighting AI, and one for fighting anyone as a FFA with air spawns.

If I were king for a day on the front tab:

I'd remove WWIWF, Steal the Sheep, AvA is debatable (how often does it still try and run an actual AvA historical setup? ),

I'd get rid of AI from MPA and keep it only for human dueling 1v1, 2v2, 4v4, spawn setups.

I'd add a simple FFA Furball Lake\Basin arena.

I'd add a AI practice arena, with a WWI, WWII LW, WWII MW, WWII EW zones in the corners (mountain range dividers).

$0.02.

Morph,
I still remember those "missions days" with a bunch of bombers with many escorts with primary and secondary targets...

There is one in IL2 with airspawns, icons and small map. It's one of the 3 that the devs run and it's a blast from about 1 to 5 EST. You should check it out. It's a blast. You should check it out. It's as close as I've found to the oldschool furball lake that I've found.

I agree with all but removing western front. I think that one is well done and I still play there with my kids from time to time. If you did that I might have to deliver some flaming dog poo to the kings door

Salute Morph

I have been kicking around the idea of getting a rig to log on once again but have yet to pull the trigger.

Good to see some old names
