ENY FLAW
« on: March 01, 2014, 09:27:38 AM »

    Really beginning to feel like we're beating a dead horse on this, Cause HTC refuses to listen !

          This morning is a perfect example of how the ENY is hindering the game.  I logged in to see once again the Bishops had a 25 ENY.  the problem is, while we may have had more players online, and in flight.. We were once again being double teamed by the NIT /ROOKs. a quick glance at the map would prove, not a single base on the Nit / rook front flashing, And the Bish bases being horded by both sides, with only outdated, underpowered under armed planes for us to try and put up a meager defense.   Outnumbered and ENY handicapped  :bhead

All 3 countries get double teamed at one point or another. Bish just happened to be that country this time. Give it time and later today I bet you'll see the Knights or Rooks being double teamed.

I have noticed that the bish do seem to get some ENY in the early mornings. Probably just more Bish on at this hour than Rooks or Knights. I say we reduce the 12 hour rule to 1 hour so some of those Bish can switch to Rook and Knights to get rid of the ENY for all 3 sides, and then they can go back Bish later in the day when the numbers pick up again.

ENY isn't the problem. The people logged into your country not playing is the problem.

Lobby for the dead weight to hang out in another country, another arena or the lobby.

Problem solved.

Plenty of great aircraft available even at 20/25 eny. Just because you can't take up your runstangs and B-24's doesn't mean you can't have fun.  :)

The G-14 is the steal of the century at 25 ENY.

Mossie VI at ENY 30 is also a bargain.

  I am by no means an ace pilot, Im just now getting to the point where I can land 3-4 kills in a sortie, and hold my own in a 2 or 3 vs 1.   I've been flying the Spit 16, 14, and 8 mainly, and was just starting to transition into the Corsairs.  Now that ive upgraded to an X52 pro Joystick, and TRACK IR, im back in my comfortable Spit 16 until I get used to the added dynamics. So its just no fun for me to log into a horded mess with a plane im totally unfamiliar with.

     ALSO..  the side switching time is ridiculous !  It has had the opposite effect of HTC's intention.

Spit IX is similar to those Spits and has a higher ENY, though not a 25.

Years ago, side switching was free. People started to abuse it. Then it got a one hour wait time. As the abuse got worse the switch time went to 12 hours.

It is the full effect of HTC's intention.

Looking at your score it looks like you would benefit with some time in high ENY planes. Look at it as a challenge. Flying a plane that you have to use skill in to get kills will make you a better fighter/player. If you look at it as a handicap then your just going to be frustrated. Also, as you get better in the high ENY planes you'll find that jumping back into your spits that you'll get those 3-4 kills runs more often than you do now.
