Where's WWI going from here?

[Toad]

Considering the point it is at now, if only the MA had been begotten, I wouldn't be here now.   

As HT said, we already have a war-winnah arena; no need to begat another.

Tune the icons.
Consider only two sides not three
Load balance to 10% or so.
Allow instant side switching(there is no strat to spy on)
Add a few clouds and put mildly leathal (Invisible)robot Mgs along both sides of no mans land. So at least there is some cover to dive for.

I am please with HTs response, to my mind, no proponent of putting strat in WW1 ever came close to describing what that strat would be like.
IMHO if every aircraft, vehicle and ship in WW1 was modeled, you could still not make the base capture game out of them.

Would anyone one be against shooting a heard of sheep to win?

I believe that S.A.P.P. would be. They are working on a plan to save all sheep.

[R 105]

Shoot sheep, why not.

Shoot sheep, why not.

Go ahead and add parachutes. Let us shoot chutes.

The best/most chute-shootin' shooters win the war. Reset/Rinse/Repeat.

I think that would instill the proper sense of "honor" in the game.

Takes a bit of "begatting" in order to keep the place populated. Logging in early morning its already down to 12 - 20. That is "just" barely enough to have a fun "Dawn Patrol".

I think the key is to draw the line at where it "effects" the arena. Especially if it effects it for more than 15 min.
You can have things to do that can impact the arena for a short time without totally losing the furballers.
Barrage balloons, convoys, trench strafing, sheep shooting, whatever. (don't know what we'll do with all the dead sheep, but whatever. )

Unless your going to go with a simple first guy to kill 10 sheep wins the war, you see confetti, get your name in "lights" and everything else remains unchanged.

What I do know is that HT has his thumb "Firmly" on our pulse, and he's had a lot of time spent doing trial and error. Whatever he comes up with should be interesting.

I'm sure I'm not being pure enough for the furball Taliban, but I do think to keep the arena healthy, SOMETHING more has to be added than 2 straight-line conveyor belts feeding into a meat-grinder.
Even the action in the DA has more interesting dynamics than that because you at least have all 3 sides mixing in the same fight.  It’s interesting to just watch the map at the furball lake in the DA and watch how the center-of-gravity shifts around and presents different configurations.  If one side pushed too far toward one enemy, they naturally expose their flanks to the third team.  If they try and attack both sides simultaneously, they must divide their force and are weak. 
I’m sure HT will think of something.

I would like to say i have been having nothing but fun,i have been meeting with some real nice guys that want to have fun fights with one on ones in no mans land during the night,most seem to respect the one on one thing in the middle,and by far I'm having the best most fun fights there.WWI no manes land seems fine for me and has been all i was hoping for.

S.A.P.P would strongly protest if the indiscriminate murder of sheep was made a criteria for winning the map.  We will not sit idly by if HiTech Creations would endorse such barbaric behavior.

If they are the enemy's sheep, the murdering would not be indiscriminate, now, would it?  

+1 to sheep slaughter FTW!!
