AvA the new EW arena?
« on: October 27, 2009, 08:20:54 PM »
I was there tonight and had fun. :)  But who are these people toolsheding the map?  There was a squad of 5 in there, each with "A2" in front their cpids, running lvts against undefended bases.

Please, no more field capture in the AvA.

P.S. the current map has way too much puffy ack.

2nd Amendment squadron.  They can usually be found in the MW arena and for the most part, usually put up a pretty good fight.  I hope this is just a short phase they are going through and not turning into a squadron like the SOARS.

Check out the "Next Thursday:  Operation Iceberg" thread.  This week's setup has a mini-scenario sort of goal.  It's brought in quite a few new faces.  The fun begins when you have a squadron trying to base capture, as you describe, and people who log on can switch to the other side to oppose it.  Seems to have worked pretty well so far.  Fork set the hardness and down times to make it difficult to run the map overnight.

As for the ack:  Hey, this map has always been called "Ackinawa."  Current settings are .5 of MA standard, though, so its bark is worse than its bite.

I was in the AVA last night for a few hours, It wasn't to bad, in my opinion. Some of them definitely HO, so duck and cover is the name of the game. But if you know it's coming, its not so bad. Beyond that the fights were ok. the other problem was ganging but when you have a bunch of planes in close proximity like that, the last man standing is gonna get ganged, thats just life in the big city.

over-all it was pretty fun and civilized. could it be better, yes, but atleast there's people in there for now! It just takes time.

It was a hoot last night. Course it wasn't much of a fight to shoot me down but it was a riot.

Glad to see the 2A guys in there.

It took us 2hours to capture that V-base last night...
It was very well deffended
 "Very good fight"

We have been having a lot of fun in the AvA
Plan to see us in there just about every night

It wasn't well defended because those who wanted a good air to air fight moved elsewhere to get away from the puffy ack from the CV parked on the beach.

what do you mean all our planes where heavy and low altitude....

if you dont want to defend your bases, then we are gunna take them that is what the squad is about

besides the chance of puffy ack killing you in the AvA is 1 in 1000

I know what you mean about the puffy gavagai, It seems to be everywhere, I don't think I've been above 3k in there all week...lol.

I had time for 1 more flight on Monday and lifted against the 2A guys, they were attacking a Vbase from their CV. Me and TheMaj fought 2.3.4 at a time and it was a blast. They were respectful and weren't picking or zooming to the heavens, everything was basically on the deck. No BS on 200/all channels just fun fights. They did look for the HO shot alot, but it was not a big deal.

I ended up having to leave after that flight...but I'll be back for more!
