I don't know how to start.... But more and more often Aces High is turning to a catch game.. Where the one who runs faster (To the field guns) is the one that wins.

Its already BORING enough spending 1 hour looking for fighter to FIGHT, and upon first encounter.... I take advantage upon two turns and the guy just dives down and runs to his base. I mean seriously ? How is that even fun ? Why do you even take off in a fighter IF you don't want to fight... ?? why ? just why ?

Second point... MatchPlay arena. Why is it just always empty ? I seem to be the only one to populate it and whoever randomly (and luckily for me) accepts my cries on MA Channel200.

It's a ton of fun and a great oportunity for instant action without having to fly around ugly scenery lookin for enemies.... who will either gang you or run away........... I mean if you DONT KNOW how to fight... GREAT ! There is Matchplay to practice !!! Which I used as much as I could in order to work on BFM and ACM and become a better stick !!!! I started last April people and I can shoot down people who have been playing for much longer.... not trying to shake my feathers but rather I am trying to inspire and encourage you here.



I don't know what to say.... just trying to get some frustration off my chest.
And Hoohah for my first ever Topic launch....

This might not be applicable for all timezones.... But I am ofcourse addressing my timezone which is currently CEST.
I feel your pain bruv. US evening time is just a horde of hit and run opportunists in super planes. I actually find the fights are much better when the arena pop drops down to about 50.

LOL, thats the cesspool  boiling down to a good fishing pond....it has been that way (the way you feel better with 50 dedicated dogfighters playing) for 28 years albeit AW, WB or AH...heh

Cesspool is not my description, I'm using that word from a post that HT once talked about on these boards, which brought about the 2 separate MA's back in the day....

"When one considers just what they should say to a new pilot who is logging in Aces High, the mind becomes confused in the complex maze of info it is necessary for the new player to know. All of it is important; most of it vital; and all of it just too much for one brain to absorb in 1-2 lessons" TC
