Title: gameplay getting better?
Post by: jaxxo on June 22, 2006, 02:40:41 PM
ive noticed the gameplay getting somewhat better in a weird way....vet ftrs sticking together  to furball while the newbs (and vet capture queens :)seem to stick together to base capture, with exceptions of course...i did notice if u up a gv entire squads will show up to kill your little tank, i did this at a1 with an AK and we got camped, jabo'd and buff dived for 2 hours..literally...musta been 25 to 30 players..but was good fun

Thought I seen you in tank town last night also.
I should have taken a screen shot. A BK in a GV , that pic could be sold to the enquirer .

Dedicated furballers decreasing in #s, skill level of pilots decreasing, small #s of toolshedders playing bigger part, small # of toolshedders ruining for others,  95% of MA in dweeb planes, greater number of big egos......................... .....yea I think the gameplay of AH is getting better. :rolleyes:

I've had at least a few fun fights every night I've logged in...  Seems like more people are willing to tough it out and try, but that could just be whimsical delusions on my part.

It's still a bit difficult to get them out of the ack, or to engage without an overwhelming advantage, but some have nutted up and are fighting. Aside from the vocal minority of miserable bastards, things seem a bit better this week.

no offense hoar but i usually see you surrounded by squaddies and alotta other help...im usually knee deep in the watermelon and I still see an improvement in gameplay..albeit not much..anyway's i think the game is evolving towards ftrs being ftrs and bombers being bombers, so on and so forth...i still see alot of vets vulching and picking (bad influence on the newbs) which is somewhat discouraging but inevitable.. no offense hoar i didnt mean to lump ya in with the rest of the 38 dweebs :P (and I wish I had more squaddies on) oh the irony

Gameplay, although better than last summer, is still...summer.  I've spent the last couple of weeks squelching the little ones that jack their daddy's (or mommy's) ID while they're at work.

Whatever, though, this too shall pass, and school will start again soon...

Do happen to like the fights lately, though...  I've been in more decent turnfights lately than the last several months...  I look forward to it getting better.

Hey, so long as the vets are influencing the newbs to aim for someone's 6, that's a good influence, vulch, pick, whatever, period! :aok

Another good night with some fun 1v1s in the MA...  Even a lot of guys I've never heard of, or can tell are new, are willing to mix it up...  I hope they stick with it, the more new guys that take their lumps now the more average guys in a few months, decent guys in a year or so, and so on and so forth...

There's still the usual pondwater types, but not as many it seems...  Glad to see it :)

well yesterday was fun for me.   bish horde trying to steamroll bases all day  (insert x # of kills here)  when the knight help showed up re took all the bases these noobs took   (insert double # kills here)

Just need Bish/rooks to not double team the nits when they are down about 30 players on both sides.   its not big and its not clever.....

ENY needs to be on all the time not just when theres x amount of players

Lots of newbies offsetting seasoned vets who slowly fade away like McArthur.

Personally, I don't seem to be getting any better, quite a plateau.  I think I need to get some training to improve ACM.

Well Like the dumbarse that I am, due to my schedual, I missed Donut and all other maps and am back on the nightmare we have now.  The last time I played we were on the nightmare map we have now.

So is gameplay getting better - For Me - No ***** way!  Until maps are better gameplay will always suffer.

I just got the XBOX 360 and bought Battleground2.  I've been Quaking it up for the past week and using up my Gold membership to Xbox live.  But now it's getting boring.  Only so many times that you can run around in circles shooting someone a dozen times in the head with a machine gun before you have to question the damage model...

I really agree w/ this !

I'd like to c the Vets encouraging Vets to fly the harder planes ... say 35 eny and up. When I see... Vet lands in Spit16 ..or any easy mode plane I laugh   . I am certainly not the bestEVAR! I still lawndart, crash into buffs, have crappy aim, and my eyesight is going hehehe but Landing in the harder plane sure makes the game more enjoyable not to mention it shows the newer player it can be done.

I'd rather the vets teach new players that the game is about having fun and not proving how manly you are by flying low ENY planes or high ENY planes.  If a player enjoys flying a P-40, that's fantastic!  If they prefer to fly a Spit XVI, that's fantastic too so long as they're enjoying the game and what it offers.

Flyinfin, if some people didn't fly spits and tempests, they probably wouldn't have fun.

LEAVE THEM ALONE, IT'S THEIR 15 DOLLARS.

Some people have to win the fight, not just fight the fight.

Yeah Flying with the horde I would agree, at least fly something that is a challenge in a totally unchallenging evironment!

Now fly against the horde, 5+ v 1 even the spit XVI and LA7 are a challenge.  LOLH:rofl

That is a perfect answer.. I think game play is getting better but i also think maps have something to do with that. I have been looking for small fights not huge furballs and with some maps its really hard. In the past week i have had many GF. If a newb runs to ack i just let him go most of the time they will come back. If a alt monkey is going to kill me he will come down. Two LA7's chasing you on the deck while your rtb low ammo, well thats just fun making them auger. Play your game not others..

I'm not afraid to jump into a pile of NME and immediately get my arse shot off...  That's pretty much how it goes down every time.

Now, if people would just quit going for the HO all the dang time. That's annoying.

That's the key.  Having fun is what it should be all about.  Last night at 77 the Knit crowd was getting horded something fierce.  But guys kept at it and while the 60+ numbers advantage the Bish had, finally won the fight, it took a couple hours at least.

But the Knits putting up the fight weren't worrying about perks, points, attaboys etc.  It was get up and get into the fight.  And it was a heckuva fight, and despite the muggings, it was fun.

If you worry about who's flying what plane, the problem isn't your opponent's choice of planes, is it?

Out of curiousity, stats reveal...

Kermit's top 3 planes
Tardfoon
Tempest
B-17

FlyinFin's top 3
47D-11
F4U-1
F4U-1C

I find the comments of both of you to be ironic.

:aok  I must have spent 2 hours just at 80 trying to keep them of HQ and out of 80.  It was fun.  I grab whatever plane I want and go have some fun.

I think gameplay depends on the person,  you get out of it what you put in to it.   I spoke with Hitech a little while we were sitting at the bar and I told him I was kinda suprised that after 5 years I was still playing this game.  I got bored and never finished Doom3,  MOH Pacific Assault, Far Cry, etc...
I have taken the odd month off, even quit for about a year burned out a little but never bored.    Hitech's philosophy is AH isn't really a game, its a giant sandbox and he just gives us the toys to play with in the sandbox.  It's kinda like a grownup version of war like some of us played when we were kids,  remember we would get all our plastic army men and tanks, model planes and have massive battles , spend countless hours building small forts and digging foxholes in backyards and vacant lots.   We still do it now, the only thing thats changed is the medium.  We play in the biggest sandbox on the internet.

You're right.  As one of the attacking squads, I can say it was a great fight.  We had a helluva time taking it.  At one point, we even roll over 30 M3s at once to try to overwhelm the town defending GVs to know avail.
<> to all those who fought & died at 77, best fight in a long time.  Wish more people would work together on all sides.  These 1 base epic battles are so much more fun than small scuffles all over the map.:aok

Don't know about all you guys, but can't understand how gameplay can get boring here.  Something new everyday when you take the AI element out of gameplay and bring the human element into it. I've only been playing for two months and never really played many flight sims before so I'm sort of new in two ways.  The gameplay together with the historical aspect and the communication and teamwork make this a very unique game and I don't think it would ever get boring.  I would prefer that they eliminate HO shots as that is the arcade aspect that would make it boring after a while.  New planes would also be nice but there are enough options to keep someone busy for months if not years while trying to master them.  Nothing like the feeling of diving into a sea of vulchers and taking a couple of them out before you get your behind shot off, that's what makes if fun for me.  

:aok

Here's the myth debunking right here, if you don't want to get Ho'd don't fly directly at someone. If you fly and square off at me, i'll try to shoot your face off, and feel nothing wrong about it.:D :t
Title: gameplay getting better?
Post by: Speed55 on June 27, 2006, 06:44:42 PM
Sometimes you can't avoid a HO.

2 cons above you..  First dives, and your able to dive underneath and reverse, only to have the 2nd one in your face. If you try to dive again, you face high speed dirt because your too low, if you try a break turn, or to go vertical, your going to lose your tail, or wing, or stablizer, ect.  In those cases, i will go for the HO shot, which is a 50% chance of me staying alive long enough to get a better position on the 1st guy, who will usually just repeat what the 2nd con just did.

I been spending my summer this year out. After the BAD BAD summer and past year with my Mom being sick , I am getting out alot.

BUT , this past weekend it was raining alot and I played all day Saturday. First time in a bit. I put in prolly half the time for this tour Saturday. :lol

Gameplay was fine. Same ole HO's most everytime. But it was fine. I did get in some good fights and spent time getting spawned camped in TT. Spent some time in a Boat. Did a bit of fireld gunning. I did a bit of everything.

Gameplay seems to be the same to me. But , Like I said I have been off most of the summer.

And my point was that while you say we should do this, you don't even do it yourself. You pick planes with high eny what are heavily armed, fly like a *****, and then tell us how much we suck because we don't fly what you want us to. I've flown everything in the game, and probably gotten kills in all of them as well. I fly what I do because I enjoy flying those planes. It has nothing to do with showing anyone how good I am, nor proving to myself how proficient I've become with cartoon airplanes. That is how I have fun, and that probably rings true for many people who play only for their own enjoyment. What part of that are you too stupid to comprehend?

Sup AKAK,
You trying to pick on me again?

Hub, so I fight with a typhoon.  You get a spitfire on the deck with me doing a turn fight co E and I won't be able to fly away.  I'd like you to fly a typhoon in such a way as to not fire on head ons.  Fight on the deck outnumbered or even 1v1.  Do not vulch and avoid picking whenever there are other targets available.  I also fly in the sectors where the red darbar is larger than the green dar bar.  Tardphoon is a name giving to a typhoon pilot acting in a tard way.  I have nothing to prove nor a reason to win each fight.  Just knowing that if I can somehow take the right angle and get a shot first and win the fight is why I fly.  I'll fly a tempest after I build up enough perks.  I can get 1 to 3 perks each sortie with typy so it takes awhile to build up enough perks for tempy.
I also fly the B17 at high altitudes (32k) doing formation flying with other b17s.  I'll do precision bombing and carpet bombing (spawn points).

Some people claim that they've done their time in crappy maneuvering planes way back in AH1 or even WB.  I guess they don't understand how crappy some planes are in AH2.

So hub, I gotta tell ya something.

I love you man.

Any plane that matches one's style is "Easy Mode."  Who cares what people are flying.  

I've never understood those who get ticked at, for example, the guys flying the La7.  Personally, I hold the 3rd bandit following it (whatever that may be) in much lower regard.

And, Kermit, I can't speak for your encounters with others, but whenever I've run into you, you've at least made the BnZ interesting...  Much more then I can say for many, many others in this game.  If you've still got a good E advantage, you'll at least stick with it after I dodge three or four passes...  Not pretend to bugger off and wait for me to get engaged with someone else (a favorite tactic it seems of many of the well ranked).

It's the Plane that makes the style... one may have many styles. Easy mode refers to an easy to fly plane ;)

I disagree with this, but then again I fly pretty much everything pretending I'm in a Spitfire...  For better or (often) worse. :aok

Not to be a stink, but F4U's and P47's aren't exactly devoid of options in many departments...  I'm not sure I'd exactly call them "hard."

Kermit, I was simply making the point that although you say others need to fly differently, or different planes, you're very much a one trick pony yourself. That's fine though, you do what you like, and I do what I like. That's kind of the point, don't you think?

With regards to fin... until you see this game as something to pass the time, and not some moral crusade, pitting yourself in some imaginary battle of your own design against the evil kesmoid and his merry band of squaddies... you're just hopeless.

While you're checking your stats, have a look at mine for the last 4 years. If you'd really like, I can list most of my IDs since tour 23, and you can see what I've flown, and then continue to ***** and whine about the way we play the game. Maybe, if you keep it up long enough, people will start to notice you, and you'll finally have the recognition that you desire, without having had to do anything constructive, difficult, or fun.

Warmest retards,

I'm pretty sure most here would agree on the indecipherable nature of your posts.  Also, if you're accusing me of flying a glass plane and cheating, by all means come out and state as much right now.  And post actual screenshots of it instead of innuendo.

I apologize that nobody shows you the respect you feel you deserve in these vastly important online flight sim communities, Fin'E.  What's more is that they disrespect you even though you fly the hardest planes in the most difficult ways.  I can't for the life of me figure out why you fail to earn everyone's respect and admiration.

So accusations of cheating are just trolls?  I'm sure HTC wouldn't consider accusations of cheating trolls; they take such things very, very seriously.

Hey Bronk,

Any idea why FlyinFin has the hots for Levi?  He was going on and on about Lev on 200 one night late too.  Not like the FinE I remember from Airwarrior at all.

The entire conversation seems a bit silly right now

Pass the popcorn anyway :)

That's assuming it's a conversation.  Usually that involves two people who can understand one another communicating in a mutually-understood language.  That's not happening here.  :lol

P.S. Does he have a Nomads fetish?

It appears that way with all the + references etc.  He seems to think the BKs are all old Nomads, although off the top of my head I can think of 6  old Nomads still flying in AH with 4 in the 80th Headhunters, 1 BK and 1 Specialist. unless Honch is back up cause that would make 7 but he's Knights of Ni anyway.

I don't ever remember having any issues with FinE back in AW.   Still not sure why he has the hots for you.
Title: gameplay getting better?
Post by: Dead Man Flying on June 28, 2006, 12:20:11 PM
Dunno.  He got all hot and bothered about my shooting him down the other week, and then he insinuated that I hacked both AW and AH so that I had a "glass Spit" with no obstructions.  He claimed to have proof of this, but naturally the best he can offer is a photo of a Wonder Woman action figure.

Must be something in the water over in Finland these days.
