How about...
« on: December 24, 2016, 02:59:55 PM »
This may seem like a troll but I truly mean this  :uhoh
Instead of all the arguing about furballing and base taking,
why don't the furballers populate the DA?
The base takers occupy the MA Melee whatever  :headscratch:
This would eliminate most (if not all) of the bitich'in from both sides of
the question  :cheers:
But then again in my opinion, it seems most just prefer
arguing  :devil

The MA is for everyone.  If you don't like furballers, well tough chit.  Deal with it.

What kind of numbers do you think would be in the melee arena if this were implemented?

I'm sure if there were adjustments to the furball area side of the DA, it would be more populated.

The furball aspect to AH still is the most popular aspect of the game and IMO should be most of the focus in AH. It attracts the most players looking for air combat and brings more intense fast pace action to the game.

Actually the furballers really do help out weather there just furballin or if they're helping to take a base, I've seen plenty of those players that are labeled as furballers helping on a base take granted the defenders grow some balls and actually up and fight instead of running endless M3's to keep the flag from going White, furballers actually show up on base takes hoping for a good fight from the Defenders.

LOL this is great.  I havent seen a more accurate post on these boards in ages.

This is the exact reason a lot of folks log out to stale gameplay, which reflects onto the current population.

There are a handful of folks that will argue this point,  but those same folks seem to think hauling boxes of supplies is the GO TO defense in a combat sim.

When you step back and look at the big picture.. it really is stupid.

Or the base takers could fly offline and wouldn't have those pesky fighter planes shoot at them.   :rolleyes:


We need both types to make the game work.  Furballing with out a reason to fight gets stale, as does taking bases without any opposition.

There is one way to end the base taking by blitzkrieg. If the troop barracks actually had troops with panzerfausts (and no icon), then tanks would be hesitant to go near fields. Then it would merely be a matter of barracks in the towns, too.
If you like the Sick Puppy Custom Sound Pack the please consider contributing for future updates by sending a months dues to Hitech Creations for account "Chalenge." Every little bit helps.

as long as you're not asking the defenders to up from a capped base and giving endless rocket kills to the enemy from vulching and not letting anyone up and when they do they get accused of hiding in the ACK or hiding in a manned gun.. I have no problem either upping from another close by field and getting alt to bust up the cap or running my lil m3s bellybutton off to prevent the base take

No, what you do is go from another field and vulch the vulchers, that is - until the other side go from another base and you get vulched vulching the vulchers  :D
