Title: Lame Big Maps!
Post by: TheMan on August 02, 2008, 03:02:19 AM
Hello everyone , Im here to complain about the big maps. FINALLY we have reset the big maps only to go back to them for another gruesome month. I think that the maps should change once every week at the most to keep everyones eyes and attitudes fresh. Not good to do anything to much and these big maps are a perfect example. I didnt like them when I first started playing AH back in 03 and i dont like it now.

I want to complain that people don't sign their posts! I think it should be manditory that everyone MUST use there in game name as a signature.

































At least then we can find them in the arenas  :t

The amaizing thing is, we currently don't even have a big map running in any MA. LWO has SMPizza (small map), LWB has beta2 (smallest playing area of all MA maps!)

BUT I ONLY GET 25 WHEN I WIN THE WAR!!!!!!!  :eek: :lol


Man, it's funny how someone complains about not winning the war on the other side. Only time I even have a problem with that is when I've been driven back to my HQ bases and getting vulched on every single one of them.... :noid

why are they lame?

you want a dogfight? look for the bardar, launch and fly to it. you'll find your dogfight.

want a ground fight? attack a base. you'll get it.

want a bombing run......pick from plentiful targets :aok

The larger the overall playing area the lower the overall player density tends to be. This leads directly to a disproportionate impact an overwhelming force can have because there are infinitely abundant opportunities to apply it to areas of low-zero initial enemy player density. On a smaller map there are no such opportunities for the overwhelming force as they will almost always have to encounter at least moderate initial enemy player density and overcome it no matter where they are applied to be ultimately successful. This is the core of it and the reason why HUGE maps reward not fighting and small maps reward tenacious battling for fields.

Not about winning the war its about variety and changing every so often. Its a sad day when I actually dont want to plane Aces because of a huge map.

i understand this feeling about the big maps, if you log in and see only 100 in a arena, you knew no hard fiegt is going on. and you have to search for an enemy. it is ok if you want only a litel dogfight. but if you search for more it is hard to find. sure the old smal map with over 600 players is the other extrem....although i loved it hehe.
i still remember a battel around a field a14 (uterus map) it must be 2003 or so this battel was going on the complet weekend 24houers. there was a real battelfield around a14 with gvs, with bomber attacks, with dogfights.....i never see again so a hard battel it was so cool.
The big maps are ok with player numbers at 300-400 plus but below the smaller maps would be nicer. but this is a german problem because of the time diverence  :frown:.

The big maps have only come back in the past 12 months or so. We had the same three small maps for months on end. Enjoy what they give us.
