Title: I want action!!!
Post by: vafiii on November 22, 2010, 12:27:56 PM
Other than Titanic Tuesday the amount of action in the LW arena's has been minimal. I find myself spending a lot of time sitting in the tower searching for a fight or just flying around without pulling the trigger. Squad mate notices the same thing. If this keeps up I'm going to have to spend time with my wife. I propose the following changes/improvements:

One main WW2 arena instead of 4, open 24 hours with no caps.
Consolidate sides from 3 to 2. I volunteer to switch from Knights to one of the other sides.
Smaller maps.
Shorter distance between bases.
Increased difficulty for sinking a CV (99% of all good CV fights end prematurely with high altitude bombers sinking the ship from 10K or above). Leave it to torpedo planes and dive bombers to sink a CV. It would be more fun and the fight would last longer.
Recruit more players. Talk to your friends, relatives, etc.. E-mail them one of Niros videos and say, "hey man, check out this cool game I'm playing!"

I don't even want to begin to imagine the mega hordes if AH switched to a two-team setup.

I agree with the smaller maps proponent of your post.  The mega maps we use are, excuse my caps, TOO BIG FOR THE CURRENT PLAYER BASE.  It's painfully obvious.  I wish Htc could see the importance of this, but their lack of public comment on anything regarding maps leads me to believe they see the importance factor of this as minimal.

That's how it is at this very moment. Unlike the weeks before at the same time, no lack of fights. The change works!  :rock

Of course action doesn't have to be a full dar bar...

If you can't find the furball you want, chances are the other side can't either, up your favorite fighter and head over into an enemy radar. That little red dot will surely stir up something.

I'm convinced that a lot of people aren't happy unless they are complaining.

If you look at a map at any time of day you will see bases flashing. This does not mean there are fights going on. Could be a lone enemy GV in the area? Maybe a lone plane took out the radar? I'm talking about real action!

You want action? Go to DA lake for a few. Yeah you'll leave pissed but you'll get all the action you want. You might even become a better dogfighter because of it.  :aok

Tough to have 'real' action in a cartoon game. Join the Air Force?   :airplane:
