So they got F3 mode. BIG DEAL. How many arenas we have that don't have F3? Find one of those to have a duel in. :rolleyes: If that's the way the H2H guys want to play, let em alone. They're paying 14.95 a month too....do they not?


Well, so do I and a lot of others.  I find it hard to believe that HT turned it on for the guys coming from H2H.  If that is teh case, why not cater to the guys that have been paying for the last 10 years?

As for the guy thinking that the DA is a training arena, it is not!.  However, there is a training arena that has F3 on so why not go there then?  And if semp thinks he is improving by fighting in the lake with F3 on, I am afraid I have some very bad news for him  :rofl

DA is basically an advanced training arena that's why f3 is available.  If it bothers you that others use it, dpnt go there.

How about we turn it off and if it bothers you, you stop going there.  Why not try the TA that actually has trainers in it?  More advanced than the lake, I think lol

the problem ded is that its already on.  has been for years and the fact "you" dislike it just isn't reason enough to change it.  There's a whole group of people like it just the way it is.

If you want a believable and sustainable cause to pursue get em to turn external view for the A20 off, or at least turn it on for the MOSS :) (would prefer the A20 get turned off as its the only fighter in game to have external view enabled in MA).

And for years it wasn't.  I don;t get your point?  It can't be changed because it is there?  It is not just me that does not like it us you might have read. 

If you read the thread, with the exception of a couple of people that really give no reason for it to be there (other than the typical if you don;t like it then leave), most posters don;t like it.

I don't like the F3 thing either. The whole arena needs redone if ya ask me. I'm just trying to see the other side of this.



They're not really hurting anyone. But I'd like to hear the story behind all this.  :D

I don;t get your point?  
Ya cant fix stupid  :bolt:

 :aok

Point is this:  I don't care about F3 in there since I do not DA.  I was just voicing my opinion that of all the things in the game to harp on this one feature just isn't important, to me.

if its a "training Arena" then its there to assist in "training". if it were the MA's that would be different. why cry about something people are using to help make them better, albeit at your expense.

 Who is crying?


The main factor is that the DA is the only place we can go to settle scores and have fair competitions. That in itself should be a good reason to limit the f3 view. It's crazy, the one palce we can go to have a pure 1on1 fight and we can't now even be sure who is 'gaming the game' or not.

The SDL compete in the DA, the Tri-Annual Dueling league competes in there.....these are events that would hopefully not attract someone who wont play fair, but still the fact remains that F3 is available.


PS: to those who say it makes no difference, try fighting in a 109k4 and drawing a high-G lead for a 400yrd shot from inside the cockpit. Or try fighting in anything and geussing where they will pop up from under your nose during your high scissor, instead of tracking them all the way from externals. It makes no difference to the furballing but for high level dueling, it is a big factor.

Good point.  Maybe HTC could take a unused server and create a dedicated DA and separate the FFA LAKE into its own arena where the ex H2H F3 guys could congregate.
