I would just like to thank the Midwar players in the purple arena. We have our squabbles, but its been great fun and great fights since i started frequenting the place. <S> to all that fight against myself and JG54. thanks for the good time!! :)
by the way cobia, im still pulling tank rounds out of my butt hehehe

I too have enjoy the times i have had in Purple as of lately :aok
<S>

im in purple this month. MA has beome too crowded.
-
this arena has turned into quite a fun arena. theres still the occational dweebery, gameyness and tardly acts but over all its been great. last night jg54 launched an attack on V3 that was foiled. what a blast it was. ausmith1 rammed me in my parked c47 and i just had to laugh as i watch the whole thing. good going guys. keep up the fun!! its better then the AVA at this point!

Actually, Mid War IS a MA. :D

Yea, I almost fell out of my chair when I hear Jaeger was killed by a C47.
Some fun fights and just about the right amount of players in the evening.

Yep, it sure is. Got a laugh last night at the comments of one of the JG54 guys after I shot them down, priceless.

<S> Jaeger,I remember that!! was great fun. i rarely get into gv,s anymore but that might change.i knew sooner or later you would get me,it was just a matter of time.
mid war is allways a blast, I hardly go into LW anymore. the fights are awsome and the taunting is allways fun.

Oh, don't believe any of these guys. The MW fights are lousy. No fun at all!!! Stay away....nothing to see here!!!! :devil

He is cultivating the same "dislike" in the MW too.
Shoot him down and it's not because he lost to a better pilot ... it's because the better pilot "cheated".

Heyas Slappy. It's not surprising, he brings not a penny's worth to this game. He is a "Desktop General wannabe" and failed miserably at it on all sides, in the LWA's.
Valdals, it's a shame you cannot admit to anyone that you DO in fact suck. But instead you tell someone they "cheated to shoot down your sorry butt". Maybe if you actually treated folks better when you first came on to the scene, you would have received more help. But, I believe only the bottomfeeders will be willing to extend a hand to help you. It's a shame that one is more concerned with "self-destruction", than "self-worth".
Slappy, Happy 4th bud. I might have to wing you one of these days in the MWA.

I remember now!!! Used an A5 to pop his milk truck in EW. He started talkin' da big poop and telling me how he was gonna whip my butt. He showed up in a low zero. Which I popped twice. I did nearly die.....laughing!!!! :lol

In my case it was he wasn't in a good fighter (FW190A-5) when he died trying to cherry pick my P-38J while I was fighting a P-38G and J on the deck.

just do the arena a favor, if you log on as rook and find that its 19 rooks, 12 nits, and 3 bish.... come on over to bish and bring a few friends.
Been kinda pathetic in there lately.

Yeah ... I noticed that and jumped to Bish the last few times I was on. I think it was Friday when it was just me and another guy flying for the bish for quite some time.

the 190 could not do the loops you were performing in the p38. the fw190 felt like a brick and struggled to to put my guns on you. i lost lift in the final loop and hit the ground.

Hence is why I say you suck. If you can't cherry pick a low and slow P-38 while it is twisting and turning on the deck with two other P-38s, you suck. Then to go off on Channel 200 how you could have whipped my arse if you were in a better plane just cements the fact that you suck. How many passed did you make before you hit dirt? Even with a missing right aileron and right flap, you were very easy to avoid while I was fighting the 2 P-38s.
You're just as big of a joke in the MW as Ghost66 and MACZ are.

LAST COUPLE TIMES I'VE BEEN IN MW, IT SEEMED TO BE BETWEEN 20 AND 50 PLAYERS. this is perfect. good fights, not too much ganging, vulching, or picking...although some of that seems to have followed into here.......but definitly fun though

hey...here's a question for you guys........my squad flys knights in mw. last night i logged in, and there was an eny of 22 for us, as we outnumbered everyone else. i didn't switch because a few squaddies were on.
if i were to switch when others in my squad are in the same arena, am i gonna hear the cheating bs?

Flown in there a couple times and it's where I'll be on Tuesdays.

Yet to hear anything about that in MW, if they are in there they either: A) are good people tired of LW mentality or B) no longer liked in LW so they come to MW, where no one likes em.
Either way i have not seen anything about that kinda stuff. I am on opposite side as my squaddie a lot. Heck sometimes i will be Bish and fly 5 sectors to a Rook/Knight fight and help whoever is outnumbered :D.

Well I hope not but it is possible. Why don't you try and talk your squad into switching when that happens?
Although I can see how that can be a problem if your squad is known for only flying Knight there but if not, whats the difference.
If Mid War Purple starts to get a few extra players in it I hope they do the right thing and even the sides out when they can.

MW is usually a blast. There has been some LW dweebery filtering in as of late. Used to be no one ever HO'd in there. Last night I was HO'd 2 times in a row as I took off. One defended his lack of ability and the other proved he was a better pilot than that and was just caught in circumstances. PotnPans <S> was fun last night.... you are getting better in that C2 all the time.

I have more fun in midwar than anywhere else...
Depending on the map!!!! Some maps are just better than others...
Players are all pretty cool, just have to squelch the egotistical fatheads....
But thats the same anywhere ya go in this game....
Midwar Rocks!!!

you're right. in general, the LW guys that've been comming over are fun to fight.
i have however been picked, ho'd and vulched(night before last). when i came from another field with speed and was coalt, they bugged out. not like dedalos....i came at him one night with speed and serious alt advantage, and somehow, he friggin kilt me :rofl :aok
last night were a few good fights, but i came upon an fw running from a countryman in something fast(compared to the zeke i took for that run anyway) i dove in(after asking coiuntryman if he wanted help or not), and got close enough to force the guy to turn a few times, and did put rounds in him. i lost enough e, that he got out of my guns range, but the other guy caught him at this point..
anyway, it's ashame we can't filter the lw dweebs out from the good lw guys......... :D

our squad has been alternating between rook and bish depending on who has the lowest numbers. the nits always seeem to have ten more players than everyone else that's why we haven't played nit yet. a few times we have had to split the squad for balance because if theree are six to ten of us on we would create an imbalance.

that's part of why i asked the question i did a few posts ago. i figure its time to start movin round to have more fun

I love it in the MW arena! Sometimes it does get boring in there but that usually can be fixed by flying around a knight/bishop base waiting for somebody to up LOL. I have had some of the best turn fights in the MW as of late (<S> Mace), but there has been a x-over of latewar HO'n like Shuffler said.

Then where would your squadron fly? I find it very amusing that you claim to be one of the anit-hord when you and your squadron don't do anything but hord. A perfect example of that time over A15 in MW and last night. Was funny seeing you and your squadron not have any reservations taking part in the hord when Rooks out numbered Bishops near the V base but your tune sure did change once the numbers started to even out and then swing in Bishop's favor.

missed that. we were in LW last night. wish would have been there.

Had a great time trying to take P48 Mon night. We finally took it after the 3rd attempt.
Real good people in MW..... Always Good banter between countries and you always see cross country <S> to guys your not even fighting at the time.
When the numbers are on, taking a base is always a hard fought and well earned affair

I've flown MW in the past from time to time so I gave it a try last night, because I didn't want to deal with TT hoards. My first sortie I had a pretty good 1 on 1 fight with a spit9 in a 109F. I asked guys to stay out of the fight and they did, so things were looking good.
Sorry to say after that it ended up being typical MA dweeb crap every sortie after. There was roughly 15 to 18 players per team and last night there was one squad on Nit's that made up a third of that country. I have nothing against squads wanting to fly together but these guys would only fly as a mini hoard and you couldn't fight just one or two of them it's was either all 5 or nothing.
I asked them about it on 200, even told them I'd fight 2 vs 1 but it's was the typical "squad tactics" noob reply. It's too bad that the player base is so small there that it only takes a handful to ruin it. I remember in the past much of the same thing was happening with some other milk hoard squad.

For me, the most enjoyable aspect of MW is that,
it seems to be Reset (WarWin) driven... I enjoy driving
the enemy right off the stinkin map, LOL!!!! One good fight
for base capture, after another... Resistance growin stronger
at each enemy base, as they become more concentrated...
We have been one base away from reset many times... Only
to be denied by fierce resistance... Then the momentum shifts, and
they start pushing us back... Bombing us silly, smashing and
grabbing our bases... And then its our turn to rack up the kills defending!!!
Defending is always easier, and less risky, its just the nature of warfare...
:salute To all the attackers, (from all countries), and base takers,
cuz you drive the game in Midwar...

Strafing, :salute
The spit9, I believe, was me. :D
I usually fly EW, but when I logged on last night it was empty and boring. Had only flown the spit9 about 3 times when I tangled with you. I saw the other two guys circling above, and wondered why they didn't come down...thought I'd be stuck in a 3v1 in a plane that I'm not real familiar with. It's good to know I'm not the only one who will stay out of a fight if asked. :)

Yea I think it was you.. :salute
Yea I'm used to my 30mm K4, so it was a diffrent fight having a Spit9 out climb me on the deck while in a 109F. That was my first sortie for the night and was a good fight. Was too bad the other 3 sorties ended up being gang bangs, I was looking forward to some more good fights. I ended up logging and going back to the MA for a few GV rounds before I just ended up logging early for the night.

Crokett/Strafing who ever you are, didn't "ask" about it on 200, you cried about it on 200, then wouldn't give it up.
Yes, that was the 613th that ruined MW for you and honestly, I could care less. If you have a problem with a squad flying as a unit, then so be it. Fly off on your own, concerned about no one but yourself. Your response to my salute after you flew that 110 expertly tells me a lot about your character.
I am still not sure what a mini horde is. I guess any squad that flys as a unit is a horde..
Perhaps you should look at finding a new game. One where it's you against an AI since it's clear you don't play well with others.
It's also no surprise you are a muppet. You are just like the rest of them, good pilots, but clearly your attitude shows there is more than a thumb "up there", it's a whole hand. (the muppet connection)

First off.. the first sortie I ran into your little horde wasn't in the 110. I was in a 109G2 or G6 I forget which, your little hoard had 4 P38's A 109G2 and a lone C2 that was about 1.5k off to your side. I hovered out away from your pack and told you on 200, I wouldn't fight all 6 of you. I told you I'd fight 1 or 2 of you in a 2 on 1. You wouldn't so I didn't engage you guys then and I kept my distance.
A little later I got the 109 & the C2 separated and started a 2 on 1 fight. The 109 turned around to run back to your pack after a few turns. The C2 did a few more turns and lost the advantage because it was no longer a 2 on 1 and was on his six. What's he do? He then turns and starts running back to your pack, which of course I didn't follow.
Here I will even post the film for you.. oddly enough, you will see at the start of the filming I had the opportunity to gang up on one of your squad mates, but instead I let him fight the other friendly and I went off to try to find a fight.
Film..

The second engagement that you talked about me not returning your Salute is right here..
http://www.wargamerx.com/films/MW2.ahf
No way will I salute this kind of flying. Granted I did engage "two" of you in Zeeks while I was in a 110, so I choose to fight the two zeek but not the other two gang tards, that just happened to be in your squad. I know I'm likely asking to get shot down flying a 110 against two zeeks and in reality I could really care less about getting killed if it's a good fight. However just like every other sortie over there it quickly turns into a gang bang with 2 more of your squad buddies quickly jumping in.
The best part was when you called 4 or 5 vs 1 "squad tactics" I haven't had such a laugh since the Aeros group (or what ever those tards are called) said that in the DA once..
-

Can it Storch... no rules on how to have fun here cept against the ones that verbally offend.
Taking bases is just as big a part of this game as tank crawling and fighter sweeps. You want one on on go to the DA. :P

I get so sick of the "if you want a 1 on 1 go to the DA" BS replies. That kind of attitude is exactly why the MA's suck so bad any more. No one has any respect for anyone else's fight much less do they care about actually fighting. It's all about how fast can the hoard get the vulch on, so we can land a bunch of kills.
No respect is given to actually fighting anymore, much less letting two cons have a fight uninterrupted. The typical "go to the DA" line is just an excuse for limp wrists to be gang tards.

Well Said RC. A small group of guys oppose this but without it they wouldn't get that many kills or have nearly as much fun. Don't let them fool ya, these types look for planes flying heavy so they can pounce on ya and thats what makes them happy. What they really like best is more than one and so they can force them to drop ord and fight from a lower alt. They are not looking to do it all alone either as many suggest. All of this is fine by me and many others because it's part of the game...something they don't want to realize. So don't sweat it, if we all played like them they would complain about that too,... just their nature I guess :lol

I started playing AW in 94 or 95, it's 2008 now and things have changed but not that. There was a time over the lake in the DA that you could expect a decent 1v1 till finished but even those days are gone. The only place you will be comfortable knowing no one will jump in to save a countrymen or steal a kill is in the DA on 1 of the secluded duel only areas...and even then you might have some jerk come in to your area. How many 1v1's are there in Koth? How many in FSO, AVA, how bout offline?
Strafing i met you many months ago and you were a hell of a base taker and team player. Why the change? ...or is it the company you keep that has changed you? The only thing thats changed from when you started is your experience and attitude. Lighten up bud and start having fun again or if it bothers you that much give it up for a month or two. ;)

I have nothing against base takers, heck I used to do it myself and every once in a while I'll up a m3 or a goon even today. Overall though I always have liked to fight more than capturing bases, capturing bases was just something I did to change things up, but honestly I find it boring most of the time.
In fact while I will poke fun at the NOE land grabbers, I still love upping at the bases they attack, because it gives me a bunch of low alt cons to go shoot at. So if it's just a NOE attack here or there they don't bug me so much, however there are some nights that it's nothing but NOE hoard attack one after another. If you happen to bust their mission they run off somewhere else and it's like playing whack a mole after a while that does get irritating.
Overall the biggest complaint I have with the land grabbers, is when they start screwing up good fights. IE like dropping the hangers at a FH, or sinking a CV that wasn't really a threat just stuff like that. For example this morning, we had a good fight going, with a CV off the sore of a Abase. Wouldn't you know it their team killed our FH's and then our team killed their CV just seconds after.
lol it was kind of funny in a way because the fun Nazis on each side ended up killing it for both teams..
On the flip side, I don't think of myself as a furballer either in fact I the furballers irritate me much more than the landgrabbers. Quite simply because in most cases furballs are gang and pick fests and promote that kind of flying No matter what people like to say, furballs aren't much about "fighting for kills" but rather more about "opportunity to get somewhat easy kills".
I don't care what some like to say, but being in a big horde with lots of green guys close by is a very easy and safe way to get kills. I personally can't stand it and it's why you will rarely see me in the middle of a furball. The only furballs I actually like are the low alt fights with a CV offshore attacking your base. I enjoy those fights because it allows me to fight with my K4 on the deck under 3k with out much worry of high alt BnZers.
Overall I just like to fight and I could really care less about kills. I'd be just as happy landing 1 kill from a good fight as I would be getting killed by the other guy as long it was a good fight. Landing 5 or 6 kills isn't what I'm after, I'm here to find good fights which seem to be very rare these days, specially when the whole games seems to revolve around land grabs and how many kills you can land while flying in the horde.

I am still not sure what a mini horde is. I guess any squad that flys as a unit is a horde..
Perhaps you should look at finding a new game. One where it's you against an AI since it's clear you don't play well with others.
Another good write up on the fact of the matter and how each persons decides whats fun to do in the game. Unfortunately there is always someone who wants it there way or to tell you your doing it wrong.
I ran into the 613 multiple times last night and had no complaints. I shot them down and they shot me down for doing it. Came back again and again NP. It was challenging and fun The 613 were real gentleman about it too. I received a salute every time they killed me :lol
The definition of horde for me is this. One small dar bar against a huge dar bar. You can find them all over the map.
What causes it?
Sometimes it just starts out as a mission to take a base but as the minutes tick by it ends up attracting furballer attention. All of a sudden there's a horde and Who's fault is that? Not the mission guys. Maybe it was the defenders calling out for help or was it the high alt pickers that put a delay on the take?
I guess a horde would also be 2 or 3 squads working together to accomplish a set goal. For sure that would be a horde if they had enough guys. Either way the furballers will be in tow and once that gets rolling, there you have it, the real horde.
For many of you guys it's the furballer thats the problem not the base taker or squad that likes to fly's together. Many of the complainers are just that, furballers who come from small squads that like to fly together. They always need someone to blame for not getting a fair fight when when they themselves are part of their own perceived problem.
For me, it's all part of the game and I accept it and have fun without greifing anyone about how they should or shouldn't play. But again, thats part of the game too :(.
-
just for the record,m i always ask before dropping into anothers fight. i think nkl5 can back that statement for me.......
Yea, pretty much if you see me in a fight, I'm good to go and don't really want help with the exception of three occasions.
1) if I'm RTB or in a wounded plane just trying to RTB.
2) if I'm getting ganged.
3) if the guy just BnZ's and isn't really fighting
If I'm in a 1 on 1, I really don't care if the guy is behind me and about to kill me, I still want to keep the fight one on one with out help. The way I look at it, if he gets on my six, then I deserve to get shot down. It's just that simple. I don't really want to be saved, because I must have made a mistake at some point or he flew better than me. Regardless he deserves the kill and I deserve to get shot down if he out fought me.
So with that out look to me the fight is the biggest part of the game, not really who lands the kills. With that said if I'm about to kill the other guy in a fight I've fought for the kill, I get really irritated if some con comes in and picks me or some other friendly comes in and steals the kill I worked for.
This is why I'm not often at furballs because most furballers are out there trying to get as many kills as they can get with little regard to the fight.

In the LW MA's 5 or 6 guys working together wouldn't be much of a hoard, assuming they arent ganging 1 con. However in the MW, there were 18 guys on their team and about 15 or 16 on ours. Their squad made up almost 1/3rd of their entire country's numbers, so that is a mini horde. Especially with the fact that they wouldn't fight alone and with out all their squad mates against a single enemy con. I couldn't care less if they want to fly together, but that doesn't mean they all have to gang a single con.
What was worse, was the two times I got two of them alone, they either ran away or had the rest of their squad jump in. It takes no skill and no sportsmanship to fly 4 or 5 vs 1. It takes a bit of sportsmanship and skill to keep your squad mates out of a fight and give your opponent a reasonably fair chance at a fight.
Greifing is exactly what a fight like that is. They don't care about the fight just who can get the kill the fastest while being a bunch of gangtwits in the process. There is no skill, honor or sportsmanship in that kind of flying. I could care less if people think I'm a Ahole or not, but I will never give a salute for that kind of flying.

First off.. the first sortie I ran into your little horde wasn't in the 110. I was in a 109G2 or G6 I forget which, your little hoard had 4 P38's A 109G2 and a lone C2 that was about 1.5k off to your side. I hovered out away from your pack and told you on 200, I wouldn't fight all 6 of you. I told you I'd fight 1 or 2 of you in a 2 on 1. You wouldn't so I didn't engage you guys then and I kept my distance.
A little later I got the 109 & the C2 separated and started a 2 on 1 fight. The 109 turned around to run back to your pack after a few turns. The C2 did a few more turns and lost the advantage because it was no longer a 2 on 1 and was on his six. What's he do? He then turns and starts running back to your pack, which of course I didn't follow.
Here I will even post the film for you.. oddly enough, you will see at the start of the filming I had the opportunity to gang up on one of your squad mates, but instead I let him fight the other friendly and I went off to try to find a fight.
Film..

The second engagement that you talked about me not returning your Salute is right here..
http://www.wargamerx.com/films/MW2.ahf
No way will I salute this kind of flying. Granted I did engage "two" of you in Zeeks while I was in a 110, so I choose to fight the two zeek but not the other two gang tards, that just happened to be in your squad. I know I'm likely asking to get shot down flying a 110 against two zeeks and in reality I could really care less about getting killed if it's a good fight. However just like every other sortie over there it quickly turns into a gang bang with 2 more of your squad buddies quickly jumping in.
The best part was when you called 4 or 5 vs 1 "squad tactics" I haven't had such a laugh since the Aeros group (or what ever those tards are called) said that in the DA once..
You still griping about that?? I was in the C2. You had alt advantage and kept it that way. I got the heck outa there. End of story.

Hard not to agree with any of that.
I didn't get ganged much last night. I came in looking to fight and grabbed alt, flew in made some 2 or 3 kills and ran when I seen I would be out #'ed. The 613 were all hanging out together and I did get chased by them quite a few times. 1/2 my sorties ended with one on my 6 or above.
I get your meaning and your point Strafing. In the LW it's to be expected and in the MW where there are less people you would expect more respect for a good fight. The 613 were not trying to take a base where you should expect to get ganged for getting in the way they were just flying around looking for kills not thinking about how they got them.
I'm asking myself what could I do to help change that...... i got nothin. I suppose it's really up to how the players, the CO's and their members decide to conduct themselves before entering that particular arena.

Maybe you should re watch the film. start @ 9:30 or around there. Soon as it was just two of you. (your c2 and the 109) I turned back to engage you both we were pretty much co alt and you actually had a 1k advantage on me at merge. You even managed to get a reasonable amount of alt advantage on me while I was turning with the two of you, but overall I'd say it was a co alt fight.
At that point you managed to get on my six and this was about the time your 109 buddy ran off. I quickly reversed you and you then ran away. The film don't lie, and doesn't appear to have the same bad memory of the "so called" fight.
End of Story is for you to watch the film. :rofl

You're correct. From now on, we will make certain that you will get a 1v1 and the rest will stay out of it. After you dispatch with our squad member, with your obviously superior skills, we will then let you get separation and altitude before we send another to engage. We will ensure that all fights will be of
a co-altitude and co-energy state, and will make every attempt to only fly the plane you are flying (please submit in advance w/fuel loadout). We will not "pick" you off of one of our squad mates backs while you are low and slow, we will allow you to finish the kill and regain a co-e/alt state before we engage. I have no idea why anyone in my squad would ever expect help from anyone else in my squad anyhow.
Since we are going the "Gentlemanly/honorable" route, I submit to you that ALL encounters must be HO shots. Since it's not honorable or polite to shoot your opponent in the back. If you end up on our six, you must disengage and allow us to reverse for another HO shot....say, 20 paces or so. Remember, you must always be face to face with the enemy! This is the way duels have been fought for centuries, who am I to argue.
[/sarcasm]

So called fight?? What fight??
exactlly the point..

And I will let him honorably auger as he tries to pick my spit1 while in in the middle of turning with another spit, or was it the F6F, or was it the pony or the KI?? I forget.

Whine, cry, not body likes me. It's no different than in elementary school when I was beat senseless because I didn't know when to shut up.

Unlike your entire squad, I don't need others to do my work for me and unlike your self I wouldn't want them to do it either. Something you likely won't ever understand.

Nor do I, it's called a squad because we fly together as a squad. A concept you obviously do not understand.
However, I'm in the TA and DA all the time and constantly look for 1v1's. I completely understand a duel. You do not.
You expect it everywhere, I expect it when it's appropriate. You expect to be catered to, I expect to get waxed if I
run into 6 bad guys without help. You whine, I don't....
See how that works?

Just a reminder of why this was started. :D
I would just like to thank the Midwar players in the purple arena. We have our squabbles, but its been great fun and great fights since i started frequenting the place. <S> to all that fight against myself and JG54. thanks for the good time!! :)
by the way cobia, im still pulling tank rounds out of my butt hehehe

N/M man I guess it just passes right over your head..
Like someone said in another topic.. This game is only boring if you think of it as a "air combat game". I guess that pretty much sums it up anymore..

Yea those guys even have that squeaker song on their webpage..

that would make you part of the problem. you are probably helpless and need the horde. do you understand that there are rules set in place to curb this type of game play?
Rules set in place to curb this kind of gamplay??? What type of gameplay is that?
Resetting the map? Hmmmmm, Is that why the announcement says, So&So won the war,
you have been awarded perk points, Hmmmmm?
I guess that is designed to curb winning gameplay, huh!!!! :rofl
As for the egotistical drivel? Whatever!!!! I'm used to hearing that from you, and others...
It doesn't add squat to the game, only detracts from it... But thats your "thing", so enjoy!!!
Thats what the squelch list is for!!!
I'll just keep flyin with my buddies, turnin the map green!!!!
If ya don't like it, then stop us!!!

And like the typical toolshedder, you and your merry band of fellow toolshedders will just move to the next undefended base and milk run. As soon as a defender ups that base, you guys will just move on to the next under defended base and repeat your timid toolshedding ways.
ack-ack
