Well.... nothins perfect but.... I think we can all (well 95%) agree that the closer an arena comes to providing viable choice for every style and personality the better.   The more it is attractive to new players the better.

The direction we are going with idiotic "perks" is a ded end one way street guarentted to cause hard feelings.

What I believe we need is one big arena with 3 (to start) "areas"... A small early war area, a much larger mid war "area" and a small late war "area"  The radars, rosters etc. of all areas could be seen from any other area.   These areas could not be "flown" to from any other area but you could get to any of them from the tower..A person could chose what type or how much or little action they wanted.   Any new plane could be added seamlessly.  

Every other plan I have ever seen leans so far in favor of one group or the other that it is divisive and disasterous.  

This plan would keep the flavor of the MA, allow for variety and choice, allow easy introduction of both early and late war planes and.... still allow for seperate arenas like events and HA type to be run seperately for the real anal retentive.

There... now don't say i just complain without offering any solution of my own.

Animal: I kinda liked your kind of perfect AH it has many things I like. (Like HT cheating with A-10.. funny =))


Eye candy, trains, trenches etc.. sounds good. Who cares about the FPS hit, all new games do that.. It's time to upgrade.

The perfect AH? A good plane set, ranging from 1940 to 1944-45, without "what-if?" a/c. A good rolling plane set. A less E-saving flight model and an arena less dominated by 4 cannons kites, maybe. And scenarios every Sunday afternoon/evening with the *right* aircraft. Should not be difficult to do.

"And one of the finest aircraft I ever flew was the Macchi C.205. Oh, beautiful. And here you had the perfect combination of italian styling and german engineering .... it really was a delight to fly ... and we did tests on it and were most impressed." - Captain Eric Brown

You got that right!

Other than that, for me a perfect AH would have...

More early/mid war planes...

A big scenario every third month, or so...

A 'Check Six' two or more weeknights a week...

And something like the old fightertown at Truk atoll in AW's Old BigPac arena.
