starting Friday December 16, 2011 We will be running jetweek in the AVA. we will again use the korea map and we will be setting it up with no enemy icons. also we haven't decided yet on the GV setup, but it will be a good setup for those that like to use Ground Vehicles. there is a large city where Seoul should be and you are welcome to shoot it up and at each other with tanks.
all tanks and jets will be perk free. bring your friends and give it a whirl! the whole game changes when both sides have jets!
b29's will be released later in the week for perk free carpet bombing!

How are you going to tell the difference between friendly and enemy 262s?

Well, when you shoot an enemy, he blows up. When you shoot a friendly, YOU blow up. :D
-
no enemy icons.
that means bad guys(IE red guys) have no icons, but your buddies do. we'll adjust it as necessary if it comes down to it.
-
Should have the 29's straight away... :cry

Jets and no icons is about the stupidest thing I can think of for fun.
You clearly lack imagination then.
Shame you won't be there, you might have your view modified.

Funny, krusty doesn't fly in there either.

I can see the appeal of no icons when the fights are slower and closer, particularly things like A6M2 vs F4F and such even if I don't like it myself, but it seems to me that the speed and distance at which maneuvers with jets happen would make for a poor mix.
-
From what I have been told and heard; jet week is one of the most popular weeks in the AvA even if icons are off. To me that shows that people will fly and enjoy jet week even if they might not like enemy icons off.
just my $.02

your opinions are based on what you think, not on what you know. i suggest you try it. remember, the other guy has a jet too, that changes the entire dynamics of the game. you'll find your opinion has nothing to do with fact. again its the busiest week of the year in the AVA. all the other people who like jetweek cant all be wrong.

Mine was deleted as well. There is balance.

There is agenda on who requested the edit in the first place. That may be why you have a hard time getting folks to join you. Just sayin'...

So far as I know, no one "requests an edit." Skuzzy (sometimes Hitech) does that based upon his own judgment. Stop being so paranoid.

In fairness, my first comment was very rude.
That said, to the guy who said my comments were based on my thoughts not experience, that isn't so. I have tried no icon settings in AH and elsewhere. In my opinion it is absurdly harder to manage SA with no icons that it would be in a real aircraft. I will agree that icons make it easier that it should be, but until there is another solution icons are closer to the real deal than no icons. Icons also promote the chance of having a fight instead of an ambush.

check out the week of the 16th boys and girls, it will be fast, furious fights. There will be both Tank battles and aerial battles. since there wont be any bombers til later in the week, getting bombed on the ground shouldnt be a problem. its a free for all. give it a try! bring a friend.
-
I have tried JetWeek in the past and I must say it was fun. The jets are used a little different in this scenario though, they come at you on the deck hidden in the underbrush. You lose sight of them very easily but I have to say it is a BLAST. Those jets cover more ground than you think and they are on you quick. If you get into trouble, use the ground cover to your advantage but watch out for the trees!

coming to you this friday! bring a friend!

I am going to set up the arena so that it will be very conducive to tank battles. there will be no aircraft with bombs til later in the week. if you like taking bases and blowing things up with GV's, it will be a good week to test your skills. only the 262 and the RV-8 will be available until next wednesday. then ill bring in the B29. all perk tanks and planes are free for this setup. come try them out, play with them and have fun with them.

all the time you've spent on this forum and you don't know how the moderation works? :) just report the posts if their comments hurt your feelings
it's very unlikely a post will get Rule #'d unless someone reports it
edit: oh OK never mind it's oldman who has got the wrong end of the stick :>
