First off, who is "THEY"?

"THEY" want no perked aircraft and no eny?  "THEY" want old capture and reset methods?

Just because a random tard cries about something doesn't mean the entire population of the war enthusiasts feels the same.  I think the vast majority of the players want a great balance between air combat, war strategy, and different choices on how to have fun.  That doesn't mean doing what you suggest.  Your idea is tongue in cheek, but it shows your lack of understanding on what makes for a happy cartoon world.

 It seems to me what you really want from this game is in furball lake.  No war, quick trips to the fight, constant furballing on the deck.  Maybe I'm wrong though?  If you enjoy defending bases, battling players that are trying to capture bases, hunting bombers, intercepting missions, stomping NOE's, etc, then you HAVE to have a war element to the game where the players engaging in that mode (and providing lots of fun for you as well) are immersed in what they are doing and can accomplish goals in a reasonable amount of the time with a reasonable amount of comrades, consistently.  Do you comprehend?

LOL well I'm glad you have such a better understanding.  You also keep bringing this back to what you think I want.  As I said, this isn't about me.  I'm fine.  Leave it as it is, change it all over the place, I'll still be here.

Seems to me I've been playing in this cartoon world as long if not longer then you Grizz, and I've managed to keep myself fairly content over the years.  I'm also fairly convinced that if I totally agreed with you, there is a good chance you'd disagree with me on that :)

So again, how does uncapping the arena, returning base capture to the earlier form and freeing up all the late war birds for use create a problem?  Does it not address the issues that seem to be most loudly complained about in AH?

Maybe you have, I've played this game off and on since Tour 50 or so and I played Aw1 on Aol, AW2(beta) and AW3 on gamestorm.

Corky, I don't have time to talk about your terrible idea anymore, I'll let someone else explain it to ya.   :aok

Words can not express how bad this idea is, so I have a GIF.

This was my reaction after reading your post:

If anything you've been the one to convince me that I need to think outside my little world.
It is good to be open minded but I feel slightly compelled to advise you that if you have found fun in what you do then you have suceeded.
Always be it fun.   In my experience I have sacrificed some fun by understanding things through the experiences of others.  Be it self serving but I want MY FUN :)

Just 'cause I'm bored, I'll play.

First off, there is always a 'They'.  On any given night, you can hear a constant stream of complaints on 200 that are polar opposites.  'I can't find a fight.'  vs 'There's nothing but hordes.'  'He hoed me.' vs 'He came in from behind and picked me.', and many other examples.  Someone will always be on about something, it is the nature of online gaming.

So again, how does uncapping the arena,

Just as many people if not more dislike TT if it happens more than once a week.  The few times I've seen it pour over too far into Wednesday have resulted in many complaints.

returning base capture to the earlier form

Meh.  It was too simplistic and stale.  The new one is perhaps a bit too complex, but I think the exact old way would be a step backward.

and freeing up all the late war birds for use create a problem?

Many, many people despise jets.  The performance differential between them and the prop stuff is just too great to have in the game unrestricted.  It would essentially force people into 'fly jet, or be fodder.'  That is no fun.  Most people are here for the prop planes, not the 262.

Does it not address the issues that seem to be most loudly complained about in AH?

Sure, it would just shift the focus of the complaints to the other side, and result in worse gameplay.

In short, 'terrible.'

I think that was the point Guppy was trying to make.

LOL... I do not take tripl5, the beacon of truth & noble conduct, that serious. Nor guys that come up with numbers made up on the spot like "we had 17,000(!) players per tour not long ago"  :lol

Even funnier was the notion Hitech had "carved in to my demands" and labeling me a furballer. Ahhh... If I only had that much power... oh the things that I would change!  :devil
