What is it?. lets see, for me:
The A1 field IMHO SUCKS. If there is going to be a 10K airfield,then give one to each country, and put them FAR away from the front. Right now Rooks have all advantage when attacking surrounding fields because ,as some rook has admitted, they only need 5 minutes of climbing to be higher than the most people left over the battlefield.
IMHO, that is the only feature of 1.02 i really HATe...the rest is OK (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

There's a couple of things about H2H. But the thing I think they need to do the most is add some type of password protection for the H2H arena master. Sometimes we like to get our squad together to do some team H2H and it seems we got a lot of other people just joining in without even asking(which we kinda feel is rude). This can be somewhat controlled by selecting the arena player limits (1-8) but certain squad members may have to leave for a minute or so and then come back and find some other guy jumped in quick when he left. Very annoying.
And yes, field A1 sucks.

Let me beat Pyro to the punch:
People who whine about one thing they don't like in 1.02
Hehe, but seriously, I think A1 is a good "Gem" that everyone wants to have so much that they hate it when "they" don't have it. Those who have it are willing to fight to the death for it, and those who don't have it are willing to sacrifice all to get it, sorta like...real life! The grass is always greener, etc.
My biggest dislike is:
The cannons on the F4U-1C, little overmodeled IMO.

Yup, what Rip said.

Commute time on tanks - need patch quickly (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Ayup, A1. At first I thought it was cool as it would be fun to capture. Now - it's becomming just a pain in the prettythang... and my neck is gettin' sore from lookin' up alla time.

Having to blow all my easily-attained E just to drop down and blow away all the pitiful clowns trying to capture A1.

I agree with Rip on this one.
Hell there are many, many times that I wish the Rooks didn't have it, because we focus so much attention on defending it that we loose much more valuable real estate near our HQ and City. Which to me are much higher in their strategic value.
Cobra out!
-
The only real complaint I have is the amount of time it takes for ground vehicles to get anywhere.
I spent over an hour getting close to the enema base only to be spotted by a Typhoon (sorry I can't remember who it was. <S> anyway)that eventually knocked out a tread.
I had fun playing cat and mouse but an hour travel time is a bit much.

My number 1 is the u r unable to fly that plane message. I agree that something needed to be done about the vulching. But this was,nt the answer.
If you had to knock out the ack before you could take out the hanger, that would make more sense to me.

Acks shooting through buildings and hitting my tank.
My tank exploding when driving over land that was formerly occupied by a destroyed building.

Gota agree with Cobra! A1 might be hard to take, but it does use alot of resources to defend.
No gripes here. Maybe the cannon Hog. Kinda powerful, but they taste good too!! Mmmmmm!
Oh! Scoring needs tweaked alittle! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) But my major opinion is, "As long as the bastard is down!"

Well i think A1 ia a good idea if you want to propagate Furballs .. it's ALLWAYS gonna draw a crowd... I think tho it's haveing TOO mucha attention and all the rest of the front are not beeing looked at ..
I say remove A1
The rest i'm really happy !
Well maybe the commute time for tankers .. i wanna see more tankers so pls think about something that gets commute times down
-
Icons,giant dots and no roads!
And A1 would be ok if I didnt see so many rooks coming down on me from 30k+
Wonder what would happan if some of those planes went over 30k in real life??? bet that pilot would freaze his butt off!
-
We HAVE to get a timer or queue for fields.
So if I'm at field A7 and the fighter/vehicle hangers are down I can put myself in the queue to launch as SOON as the hangers come up. Either that or a timer to inform our country how long the hangers will be down... thus we don't have to guess when it might come up and when we can defend our precious field.
-
Ground Speed on vehicles makes them incredibly weak and easy to kill. There are 1 of 2 ways i see to fix this:
1) increase ground speed on vehicles to make them able to get to a battel sooner
-or-
2) limit ability to launch from an airfield that is "on the front lines"
This would increase the effective range of the vehicles.

Amen to Rip on the A1 being the "neighbour's greener garden"...it seems that these last three days everyone has been focussing on that one...
I mind Caveman not understanding that it's not his ar**e that we want, but only his field <g> (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif) (As well as I propose that we make a pot and send him to colege, so that he can have an Anatomical course, teaching him that the body is not only mae of one finger...

Rip, are you saying that because I finaly scored some kills in the F4U1C yesterday ? (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

A Timer would be too useful..ALT fields away from the front...humm, I'll still give A1 alt a few more tries!
As for training you are incharge! I saw france and much of the med, I'll stay at my current job.

I like the A1 field, "King of the Hill" thing hehe. I just love going there with 25k alt, and vulching fighters and bombers departing, with plenty of room to dive, extend and climb up for another pass. It only takes a big concentrated effort to capture, and I'm sure one of these days us knights might actually own it!
I hate the the -1C also, not enough entered the war to warrant it being modeled IMO.
To long to get anywhere in a Panzer is another bummer, and the 38 turn still seems a bit week like was mentioned previously.

the 38 is perfect as it is right now.
dinae touch the 38 FM any more! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
it turns like it should (not greatest but not bad)
-
What about making A1 a neutral country that will fire at all planes and vehicles that get close to it. Who-ever captures it first gets it, so nobody can whine when the bishops have this field 24/7 (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Still whinning about the -1C? Hell, I haven't even seen a -1C this tour, and only one -1D.
Hangers going down to 250lb bombs, my preference would be 1000lb bombs required.

Unbelievable to me that just one week after the release of 1.02, folks can't be satisfied and grateful for what this product is, and patient enough to let HTC build their game.
Guys, i dont mean anything derrogatory towards any of you, but if you think about it a sec, what we have is pretty cool. Sure, it's not perfect, but what is on this little planet of ours?
When i look back and remember AWDOS, then look at this for only $30.00/month, do i really need to go any further (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
In regards to field one, take it or destroy it...maybe destroy their city as well....I thought all the complaints were in reference to not enough strat a few weeks ago, now we have it, so use it (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Heya Rude, I wouldn't worry about it (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) I think *everyone* is indeed damned grateful for this most excellent sim. squeakin' doesn't mean we don't love this sim, it just means we are flight simmers (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

LOL rude, did you read the Topic? He didn't ask what we liked, he asked what we didn't like (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif). HTC needs player feedback to continue to improve it and draw more players, or reinforce the bonds to keep existing players.
I LOVE THIS SIM!
Of course there is always gonna be something to squeak about, you can't please every one all of the time (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif).
