Something for everyone?

Perhaps you should leave the crystal ball gazing to one-eyed gyspy women...they seem to be much better at it than you . I not only never stated that, I never implied it. I even went so far as to thank people for their critisism, because I felt it would give me a better chance of making a well rounded map the next time.

The point is that "something for everyone" means, to me... something for every player.   I take this as very precise like saying "I am quitting FOREVER".   Most people who quit "forever" Or claim they will "never" reply to my posts again do so in a short time.   "something for everyone" has been used just as loosely as the aformentioned "forever" an " Never".  

No...the point is that I never said that Trinity had something for everyone. What I did say was that I said that I TRIED to give it something for everyone. Since you chose to use quotes this time, please, do me the courtesy of showing me where I posted this. Is this just poor editing...or did you 'assess' what I wrote?

I know. You didn't bother to ask either. You just assumed .

I don't know or care about your history.  I only care what you are doing now IF, it affects me.  If the old infinity had something for everyone then I would put it that you don't know or, have forgotten what a furball is.

Gee Lazs...I figured you knew all about me, since you appear to believe that you are qualified to make "assessments" of what I say and do. The point is that (unlike you) I do try to do some of everything (or did until the damned bombsite changed).

As for HT and c... I don't pretend to know what they want.   I have talked to him and that is all it is... couple of guys bouncing ideas.   I don't own controling or major stock and if my idea fails and drives folks away it doesn't cost me a cent.   I have no right to expect anything from HTC.   I think they have done the most amazing job imaginable... It is unbelievable how much they have done over the years.   My guess is that the company thrives because it figures out how to attract the biggest audience.   I would imagine that AH2 will be have some of the WWIIOL or everquest elements to it and will attract new players.   I would also guess that it will drive away some so there needs to be "AH classic"   for the same reasons that CT guys CAN'T understand why everyone isn't over there playing all the time...

Lazs, I'm not pretending to know what they want either. My statement to Muck was based on years of conversations about how this kind of game should work (oops...there I go again with that history stuff !). Well, it would be nice if you would cut me at least a small portion of the slack you seem willing to cut HTC (especially since I don't get paid for this ). But, I didn't create Trinity for a simple ego massage. I did it because it was fun to do.

Bottomline... In the future, feel free to ask rather than assume .

Muck, NB, you both make the mistake in believing that Lazs will comprehend anything that anyone says.  Unfortunately Lazs is unable to fathom anything outside his vision of what everyone should do with their $15/month they pay to HTC.  Sadly, Lazs has too fragile an ego (and too short an attention span) to ever realize that someone may actually find something that he doesn't enjoy fun.  You guys would probably be better off ignoring Lazs' posts as the broken record regurgitations that they are.

NB and Muck for being positive and trying to make AH a better place.

I don't know enough to have an opinion of Lazs persona.
But here here on the rest

nb.. I quoted you exactly... you said you "tried", I said you said you "tried"... go back and read the original posts.. This was in response to one guy gushing about how the map was perfect for him.... You thanked him and made the aformentioned statement....you did thank people for critisism at one point but mostly... you got defensive.   To your credit, you eventually agreed that things weren't quite right... A LOT of people were comlaining about "infinity" at that point tho...   You didn't change anything till the volume of complaints got pretty high.

I am glad you changed things for the better.   Closer fields are better.   That's all I said.

Sounds an awful lot like Fighter Ace.

In FA2 field capture was done damaging a certain percentage of a base which would trigger 100 or so AI tanks to roll from your base towards the target.  The target would spawn defending AI tanks.   You had to cover your tanks to the target and then help take out the defending tanks.  The downfalls of this system were AI only tanks and that 1 player could trigger the tank rush and capture a base if no one would defend.

So.. try out the latest FA to c if you like the gameplay.

A similar system but allowing player controlled tanks to participate would be fun imo.  

I'm not a fan of the goon capture.  Gooning is not much fun and they get slaughtered by the thousands as no one likes to escort them either.  1 fast plane running around killing off goons is the best defense in AH.  Not good imo.

Lazs...

This is obviously another one of those assessment things . The only time I said or did anything that could be termed defensive was when I was working my tired old butt of redoing Trinity and still reading the same old tired crap from you. Contrary to what you seem to want to believe, the overall response to Trinity was positive. There was a high volume of complaints at one point. The thing is that most of them came from the same 4 or 5 people. I also paid attention to what was said in the arena and the response was much more positive when compared to the Desert. BTW...FYI, I made changes to Trinity because HT gave the OK to do so and not because of a flood of complaints.

On the upside...I am pleased that you no longer believe that Trinity is the antithesis to good game play. As I have said before...thanks for your input (if not for the frequency of it ).

see... we understand each other.. we just have different blinders.  We are both saying the same thing just putting a different spin on it.    I don't really care how we get an agreement just that some agreement is reached.

infinity is not the worst map..  there are two others that are worse.   It is moving up the charts.
