Unperk everything in Latewar
« on: December 02, 2010, 10:16:40 PM »
Karnak had an interesting comment in another thread in response to my suggestion to unperk all the planes in Latewar.

He suggests that this would send more folks to Midwar, which would not be a bad thing.

I'm of the opinion that this might solve the furballer v war winner struggles too as I would guess that many of the furballers would migrate to midwar for the air combat, while all the jets, Temps etc in latewar might be more helpful to the war winners.

Per usual I could be completely off on this, but it's an interesting thought anyway.

I see nothing but this becoming a 262 furball at 40K, just to wind down towards the earth in a spiral of canon fire  :joystick:

That would totally kill the late war arena, if not the whole AH.

You will not see anything but the 262 and B-29.

While I do think that Mid War would become a lot more popular for awhile, overall I think it would kill the game and company as more people choose to quit rather than suffer the jet dominated Late War or the loss of access to their personal favorite plane.

I'm not interested in a 262 arena replacing the current late war arena, no.

OK so the "it's war"  "Anything goes" crowd thinks there should be limits now on the "war"?

LOL make up your minds!

LOL I thought you were an 'anything goes' type of guy Grizz?  "Wouldn't it provide more of a challenge for your 262 o doom?

Still waiting on your ideas btw.  Clearly you do believe there needs to be some limits then on "anything goes"?

I'd have tried to be a little more subtle if I was trolling SunBat. Gotta give me a little bit of credit :)

Folks hate ENY, hate, not flying what they want, claim that it's 'war' and that 'anything goes'.  How does giving folks what they claim to want, become a bad idea?

BTW I'd include uncapping the arena too as I believe that 'minority' of 'furballers' would soon disappear or migrate to midwar.

I want to bite on this troll. (Some of u other wimps should do more of the same.)

The limits we have now are perfect.  The guys at HTC are geniuses. 

I think our point was anything goes within the limits of the game.  Nobody would want to implement a Goodyear blimp sized bullet or a nook that you drop in the middle of the map and it's all over.  Is that how you have interpreted these comments?  Really?

Really? 


There is an emoticon for that.
