Napalm, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that.
I love the smell of napalm in the morning.
The smell, you know that gasoline smell, smelled like victory.

don't care about the warps... know they will go away but.... I don't care about any "features" that make it harder to find a good fight.   the new map makes it harder to find a good fight.  

There are a lot of people who don;t like to simply fly around doing nothing.   I am one of em.

You haven't figured out how to use the map yet laz2?

Wake up and smell the roses. Furballing IS NOT the be all and end all of this sim. You may even, after some objective thought, acknowledge that others may actually enjoy the strat aspects of the sim-and that your way is not the only way to fly n fight....

yeah... let's get rid of all the "amatures" and all those crass guys who want to fight and are too lazy to learn the new skill of "finding a fight before you run out of fuel"  or are too ungrateful to appreciate the 1 or 2 kills they get an hour.   Let's force em out so that the game can have a good solid core of "real simmers" with lot's of room to milkru.. er "strat"..  If you force enough guys out maybe it can be as deserted as WB!

The people telling us that there is plenty of action generally don't have a clue as to what real action is and could empty out even the most successful game if they had their way.   It is that simple.

Speaking for myself. I get to fly and hour, 2 at the most when I logon, hence furballin' is the be all end all for me. If it becomes necessary to spend 30 minutes of that time in the tower lookin at the clipboard for the little red bars, then thats a waste of my time.

There are those that actually enjoy furballin'. A subjective thought on my part.

Ok, i've just been playing for 2hrs and it was sooo boring.  Rook, knits and bish no longer fight each other- it's turned into a competition of who can capture the most undefended fields.  I found one good furball but eventually we got overrun by attackers because the defenders went off attacking undefended bases up North.  

When i click on map all i see is a red bar or a green bar in a sector, no green and red bars in the same sector.  The map is so large that it's more efficient to attack an undefended base than to defend your own.  I've the choice of attacking an undefended base (which i could do offline for free) or become the lone ranger defending a base from a hoarde of cons.  Neither of which i find fun:(

My definition of furballing is lots of planes and lots of kills and deaths to go around.  Is that yours?  If it is, I've found good furballing every time I've been on.

I genuinely don't understand the "I can't find a fight" argument.  Since the new release, if I've been in the mood for a furball it's taken me all of two minutes each time to find the biggest one going (and I've been on in both UK and US evening time).  A lot of people are experimenting with all the new stuff, trying out buffs, new planes, etc.  But in about a week, the nonserious buffers will have given up, the new planes will have been evaluated, and we'll all be back to furballing.

This argument has nothing whatsoever to do with the map, and everything to do with patience, or rather lack of it.  "OK, the new release has been out 30 minutes now so can we all go back to playing the way I like to play?"

I agree that the initial map interface could use a re-design to accomodate the larger map.  Maybe something like color-coding those flashing bases to indicate varying intensities of engagement.  But seriously, if you're one of the people getting bent out of shape because it now takes you a couple of minutes rather than 30 seconds to find a fight, you need to change your therapist, who/what you're sleeping with, your drug of choice, or all three--because clearly they aren't working for you.

No problem finding fights here.  Landed a few multi kill sorties in FM2s and P40Es (including a 5 kill) early this morning.

Yes the clipboard map is tenuoulsy butt-ugly and some of the terrain tiles are obnoxiously bright but overall Ive enjoyed myself more than I have in many many months.

I have to...I can't believe I'm doing this....agree with Lazs.

*hides head in shame*

If time is short, I'm looking for a fast fight and it's tough to find on this huge map. When I have hours to kill flying the NOW VERY SKILLED BUFF SORTIES :D  it's still not as much fun because the fields I'm bombing are virtually undefended.

As I always said, I prefer to fight my way in, drop my iron, and fight my way out. I hate bombing ghost towns.

I hope this is not the only map for 1.10.

AKs did a great job on the map, but I think it's too damn big for the current player base. Maybe when we get some more recruits...

I agree 100% with Lazs and Apache, this map has GOT TO GO!  The only good thing about this huge map is that we're not being charged by the hour...hmm, guess that really has nothing to do with the map :p

I like the idea of a desert map, just not one that forces me to throw away a perfectly good pair of contact lens due to eye strain trying to find a fb...any fb.  Not to mention the one or two hops I can only get before I hear a "honey-do".

HT, 86 the "inverted Mercedes" map, please!
