Title: Keep Tank town and FT in MW
Post by: Baine on October 01, 2006, 06:54:32 PM

I just had a blast playing in the LW arena. The reason: Tank town was up.
I was the 349 of 350 to log on. I'd have been just as happy driving my panzer in MW, as I suspect lots of other folks would have been. In fact, the one time that I logged in and found big numbers in MW (my personal fave) was when the tank town map was up.
So my suggestion is that we reserve the really fun maps (those with TT and FT) for the MW, which for some reason seems to have anemic numbers. At least until others see the MW light.
This way guys who want to furball or GV always have a place to go while also freeing up slots in LW for guys who want to fly in there.

TT is indeed fun, but a lot of the people would complain that the same map is up all the time and making the arena too boring.

its not TT, its 6 bases, and a valid target for all.

TT shouldnt be needed if the maps was designed properly to allow tank battles... FT isnt really needed at all, if a furballer cant find a fight its there fault there plenty of fights out there.

Not quite. I was on this morning in EW, and I could only find one fight, and that was us getting ganged by the rooks from high altitude. I think there should be some fighter-towns, in a few more maps, just so someone who has the urge to furball can. I dont normally just want a fight, im normally after an objective, but every now and then I have these urges to just turn and burn with another 20 or so planes.

the reason you couldnt find a fight in the morning (especially in EW) is because the total lack of  numbers.

creating FT only makes matters worse. Why dont FT people use DA?
