Make the late war monster more rare!!!

Lazs...

I'm not sure the arena is large enough to incorporate an early war area...in addition, what you would then see if we did have it, are trips to that area by sqds of Dora's or 51's simply to feed.

I'm not sure what the solution is. I do know that the RPS was a system which seemed to operate on the premise that everyones planes would sooner or later be available and that no plane was out of reach for ANY player, regardless of his/her skill level or the amount of time which a player had to be online.

The Perk System...I don't care for it and I think it's an overcomplicated attempt to bring balanced play into the MA...can I live with it? Sure...I'm fortunate that my ride(51D)will be available and I'm confident and familar enough with the 51 to fight any perk plane they introduce.

I would like to see HTC just build the aircraft into the game and then let the players sort it out...the 13th TAS flies together most everytime we're online. I would bet that we would fare just fine flying P-40's angainst Dora's...it would certainly be a challenge for all of us and that would be fun

I still prefer the RPS, but I don't think HTC is going to let go of the Perk thingie. If I had to guess, they probably have ideas which they are unwilling to share at this time with the community which may make all of this a bit more digestible.

Let's just keep on keepin on and try to have some fun until this thing runs it's course...you know as well as I do that the current player perspective will change over the next few months, except mine of course

Cyas Up!

ice... I believe that 3 sectors seperation or 40K mountain range would be enough.   I don't believe that more than 3 fields would be needed for the early war area and that if they were in a canyon environment.... Well... good luck trying to feed on em with late war planes anyway!  Sure... a few dipshits would load full fuel in doras and 51's  and waste time and effort just to get a little attention but I believe they would not do very well in the canyons against the nimble planes anyway... They would just be frustrated and low on fuel.  

I don't mind RPS.   I love early war planes.  I believe that I am in the minority tho.  I also have a real problem forcing people to fly my planes or style.  I believe that the biggest group of simmers likes mid war and that 3 early war fields would fit the bill nicely.   If strat guys or late war fans wanted to try out early war they would be given the opportunity and would be doing so out of choice not force.   I know that in RPS a lot of people just don't fly during the periods they hate.

There really is a way and there really is no need for the perk system.  And yes, I am taking enjoyment where i find it but I am logging more often and not having quite as much fun.   My choices are getting less each version.

I respect your opinion...what you propose may indeed work...will HTC give it a shot? Well, I'm not smart enough to answer that one

LOL, unless the whole arena isnt furballing,
or somebody actually tries to bomb a field that you are playing with.  Ill remeber that quote next time i see you cussing someone out on channel 1 for bombing a hanger at the field and ruining YOUR furball.

wobble... you have again proven that you have no reading or comprehension skills.

I do not have to force people to fly my style even if I was so inclined.   Simply Give em a place and I will have no trouble getting unlimited WILLING participants.  In AH people have to be DENIED the right to fuball.

Contrast that with your style... Your mom had to force people to play with ya when you were little and now you want HT and co. to take over moms job.
