Same here. No fun, no furballs. Maybe –and this is only a suggestion- its time for two countries in AH due too decrease in players number?

Bish  and all the rest.

Hitech said that would never happen. One or two new mid-size maps would sure be nice though.

This is one of my favorite maps...more realistic!  Furballs aren't a very realistic WWII air combat fighting style :old:

I flew in a furball last night...15 or 20 planes all buzzing around in a small area at 2 thousand feet or less.  Looked like a WWI dogfight, but they were using WWII planes :D

Perhaps not but a lot of players enjoy the close quarters air combat.

I get that, but what I don't get is that it would seem the furballers could simply start one by agreeing to a spot on the map through Channel 200 to meet and fight, leaving the rest of the map for those who prefer to play differently.  But instead, the furballers seem to want to force furballs through smaller maps.  Furballs can become hard to avoid on small maps and possibly just as many players don't want to furball as those who do.  On a large map you get a choice of playing styles, on a small map you have fewer choices.  Could it be that since less players furball on large maps there are less players you actually want to furball?

This is not about furballs and furballing. Actually GHI as as far away from being a furballer as possible.
And wishing for more intense activity and more battles instead of spread out cons all over map doesn't make you a 'furballer'.

There are LOTS of different things to do in AH that don't involve picking and running.

And regarding the current map, Compello:

The reason why we seem to be stuck on this map for the largest part of this tour are the updates, which either did reset the rotation (skipping a lot of the maps that were due to show up). Or resetting the arena map timers as happened at the last host patch, when compello's timer was reset.
Without that reset, we would not be on that map anymore.

I'd be happy with a map maker program for AH that didn't crash every 10min on Win8.

I strongly disagree with the OP.  I have always been able to find good fights on this map, so I'm not sure exactly what he's looking for.  Perhaps we should have some sort of course in the TA to help educate people on how to find fights?

Off topic, I agree that we should bring back Trinity, but with the TT changed to have a VBase in the center, whose blinking would indicate to others that someone is in there.
