Actually it has nothing to do with taking a base.  It has everything to do with not having anything or everything to shoot at.  You either find 50+ noe sneaking a base or none at all.  Its that simple.  I dont recall anyone complaining about stealing a base.  You can spend 20 minutes finding a con or at a moment notice 50 are on a town.... thats the point being made.

You need to produce that film of 50 guys on a town. I was in the Devils brigade and now the V Brigade and do not ever recall seeing 50 planes in one of our missions.. I have seen 49 :lol :lol

You must not be playing in LW Dads. I have been seeing dar bars from every country lighting up the entire map lately.. Not all of those dar bars can be Devels Brigade missions... You still have found 419 guys to kill this tour thus far... Congrats by the way. :salute

still why not come in from a diff base? why come to the BBS and cry about something that cannot be changed ? you are a vet of AH are you not? you should already know this  :salute

I watched several missions today that had 30-50+ on target missions.  It was not your squad that was involved with these missions today.

I'm gonna take a weird position here and agree with some vTARDS for once....... and yes I called you that again..... but seriously guys, nothing they do ruins anything for anyone, it just opens up different opportunities for taking their scalps in different ways. NOTHING is ruined by their missions, NOE or otherwise... like DrBone said, when the word goes out it has been spotted coming in on dar or whatever, up your big bad cannon LW bird from the next closest base, come in high, and commence to the clubbing. There are two guaranteed facts you're gonna find.... they're 1)heavy with ords, slow, and not able to maneuver, and 2) they have a serious hard-on for whatever hanger the TIC (Tard In Command) has assigned them, and chances are 10:1 they won't even know you're dropping in from the high 6 to put a burst of 20mm in the back of their head.

I repeat, NOTHING is ruined by these guys. Let them keep doing it. PLEASE.  :lol :t

Reaper90, While not totally agreeing with your tact, I do agree with your statement.. Dr Bone has been one of those clubbers on many occasions. Another one is SHawk. He is good at always being there when we show up.. Probably because they are  paying attention to the signs that an NOE was coming...Our guys are pretty good at flying below the radar, but there are always pop ups and other signs that something is coming.. Watch the radar. If it gets taken out, you can be sure that something is coming..

And yes, fully loaded and targeted on a hanger is very true... Again, If someone takes your base. Who is really at fault for letting them take it? :salute

I think some of these guys want you to make an announcement on 200 before you take off telling them what base you  are going to. We have plenty of spies doing that now..

Reaper90, yours is probably the best comment on this subject thus far.. :salute

And for the third time: there IS NO similarity. Doing something different from what you would prefer is NOT the same as deliberately going out of my way to ruin your fun. Your failure to understand that is what's "thick".

No one is going out of their way to ruin your fun. If you and dadsguns can't enjoy the game unless everyone plays the way you want them to play, that is YOUR problem, not theirs. Grow up and get over yourselves.

OK so lets say I now "prefer" to be a radio announcer. I'm sure my jokes will go stale quick so maybe I'll just report "troop movments" make it sound like a "war today" report. Just broadcast whats going on, reporting on the action....or lack there of.... around the Aces High World.

As long as I'm having fun and I'm paying my $15 it's ok right? Cool!  thanks so much!

Please, also try to get it through your thick heads, I'm not only calling out the vTards, and Falcons group. I'm calling out all of the players that use these tactics to avoid a fight. I'm not asking any one to play my way, I'd just like to see these players do some fighting in believe it or not a "combat game".

Not every1 looks at it the same way you do Combat game or not will always be 1 bad apple that does something others do not like.Which in my case i find myself around a bunch of noobs that keep running then i up something they cant run from either it be a Jet or an La7 you just need to fly smarter and maybe setup closer reversals

Fugitive, it doesn't matter what you call it, if a player deliberately sets out to spoil someone else's fun, especially if they're on the same team, that's acting like a jerk.

Playing differently than how some other people might prefer just isn't the same thing.

I might prefer that all the bish help out taking bases and prosecuting the war effort rather than just furballing for its own sake, but hey, if that's how they best enjoy the game, it's their $15. I'm not so self-absorbed as to imagine they're deliberately trying to sabotage my fun just because they aren't doing exactly what I'd prefer them to do.

My understanding is that the point of the lock is to announce that now is the time to land and move to the other arena.

If this grace period is being abused to take bases while everyone is doing that HTC intended, ie go to the other arena, thats gaming the game. HTC should make bases uncapturable after the lock sets in...

end of story.

nothing is being abused being there is no "grace period".  The announcement is just that, an announcement and doesn't signify there is now some sort of "no capture" policy in play.  Saying that no one should be able to capture or attack a base during this time is silly, you might as well also ask that no one furball either.  Let these guys play the game and stop trying to put some type of restriction on them.

I see dars all over the fronts,and a mission I make is somehow killing your fun,then thats in your court not mine..you bail from a plane to defend a base while on the way somewhere else,or in the middle of something,thats YOUR decision NOT mine.ANd I am not responsible for your decisions in the game.


 And interfering with others play??oh brother.Thats like me saying that no one can come in and attack a mission until it gets to the field because they are interfering with what we consider fun..
Same ol song and dance with you and your other armchair generals: Failed attempts with just a tiny inclination of a challenge and you guys are off to some other part of the map. You keep doing and doing this all night until you become successful. (yesterday's fight between 17-18 off hours arena). Does anyone care? I dont. I think its frekin hilarious. :rofl As do most.

The "good" guys here are expected to play with a code of honor and are told to respect everyone's fun. The mere mention of spies makes everyone shutter, yet we deal with others not caring about whats right and wrong. Why not rat out that mission?
I saw you have a meltdown when someone ratted out a cv position that you were using to "sneak". YOU want to have your fun and expect everyone to play under some oath of honesty, yet cry foul when you dont get your way..GET IT?? or would you like me to elaborate more? BTW this analogy speaks well with the subject of the OP as well as other lame gameplay

Ack Ack makes an excellent point, it compliments mine...

The way I see it, most of you are missing a few very important points.

Many of you claim that only the Devils are just going around stealing undefended bases; but a base is only undefended if your opponent let's it.  All sides have squads that are base capturing type.

Now some claim these guys wait till the end off hours play to do so.  What's stopping anyone from doing the exact same at the beginning of the opening of blue and orange arenas.  So when the numbers are at their lowest in blue or orange, any squad could go in there and roll bases. 

So if you are unhappy that bases are taken in between the arena changes, then you might want to stay until "host connection lost".  Otherwise; log into the other MAs and start a fight.

Now I think many of you are confusing the Vs with a "Chewie Mission".  Rarely anymore do I really see the Vs running missions after mission.  I've flown near a lot of the V's and they are always polite and eager to help if needed.  They really are a stand up group of gentlemen.
