Title: ENY idea
Post by: GlassJaw on May 16, 2010, 01:21:43 PM
As a side balancing idea for those folks  who think its cool to roll bases with 15 vs 4 numbers *cough satans playmates* like were seeing again in the MW, how about making bomber formations a enyable thing.  ie no 2 ship formations with eny of 10-15 and no formations above 15 eny. :O

So if I'm reading this right you're suggesting that ENY would prevent base rolling with bombers...sorry but  :rofl  :lol  :rofl  :lol  :rofl  :lol ...the gamers are going to find a way to game the game no matter what unless you take away the "fun factor", if they have the numbers to do it, bases are going to get rolled...it happens in every arena and if whatever side you're on doesn't take steps to stop it you have 3 choices...don't worry about it, do your best to put up a fight or find something else to do.

Might actually work... these guys are pretty easy to kill, you just run out of ammo.  One guy just cant kill 9 bombers with two fighter escorts... not enough ammo.  If they've got so many guys (15 vs 4) in this case, why not make em each fly a bomber instead of having drones?

No it won't, they will find a way...try 15 P-38s loaded with 1000lbs bombs and rockets...stranger things have happened. I don't personally see the big deal anyway...people like that get bored easily...some think rolling a few bases will bring the fight to them...sometimes it's just the appeal of milk running to build up perk points. They all eventually log off.

It is funny how you like the idea until someone dislikes it, then you edit the post to dislike it as well.  Troll.

I for one like this idea.

I always have felt that formations should be perked.

it may be that way in LW but not MW...  The mentioned squad seems to take pride in the 15-4 base horde and will actually switch countries they attack if to many defenders show up or the numbers come close to even.  Perking the bomber formations will be a great way to slow down the "lancstuka" problem as well or bomb and bail tactic.  I know its the guys "gaming the game" but this would be a great way to take some one the "gaminess" (is that even a word??) out of the game.

I've always felt that formations have more to do with Defense than the ability to destroy objects.

I always have felt that formations should be perked.

large formations were used to make sure enough bombers survived to complete the mission.  They did not have the CRAZY accurate bombsite that we get to use.  If our bombs were as "inaccurate" as WWII era even the nits wouldnt be able to take towns down with 5 sets of lancs   :D

They are still at it and this is still affecting the balance in mid war so I'm bumping it.

You need more buddies, not fix the ENY.

Yes perk the formations more.

Another idea could be to have some puffy ack at fields & twns & some 88mm instead of 37mm. Even have a vh in town could be a possibility. Or just increase the lethality of present acks slightly.

Fields are rather to easy to roll & can be captured before you can even up.

That is ok I don't have any real issues with the hordes as that is part of the game.

ENY has yet to prove , to me anyway , that it works. I could never understand the reason for having perk points if you can't use.

As the OP, I'm not suggesting perking... people have so many bomber perks already, it would be moot. 

I'm suggesting a max number of bombers vs ENY.
