ENY (one more time)
« on: September 25, 2018, 10:03:00 PM »
For the love of God and everything holy can you please do something different for ENY.  This subject has come up so many times on this forum it is not even funny.  Many good ideas have been presented over the years I have read this forum, but nothing has been done by the management. With low numbers it is really starting to piss me off that I can’t even fly a plane rated 20 ENY much less any of the late war good planes that are there.  Please reconsider your position on this topic.  This is the third night in a row when I am logging off early because I don’t want to play with crap.  It is not that I can’t but it is simply not fun getting run away from.  Too many more of these nights may doom my need for this game....Not paying money every month just to take part in FSO.  Which quite frankly has sucked lately due to low turn out.
I really do want this game to survive.

If eny is affecting you that much, then you are likely having to fight 5 friendlies just to score a kill.

At this point all it is is a PITA that makes people logoff. 

If this isn't gonna’ change then something else has to.   Heck, instead of limiting plane choices just harden the objectives for balance.   Downtimes or damage or fuel load or ords.  Lock out (frontline?) bases that those planes can roll from.   Perk it.  Something.  But let people fly what they want.

ENY is a great idea.  The problem is it simply stops people from having fun in their ride of choice.  When that happens enough they move on

ENY would work much better in a two country war. 


With three countries, you can be ENY restricted but outnumbered in battle if the two low number countries are only attacking yours.

With two countries, you may be either outnumbered OR you have ENY restrictions.  Never both at the same time.

 For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."

ENY does need to go. I agree with 3 countries it not working. I would like to go to 2 countries because it would mean they are fighting us and we are fighting them and not they are fighting each other now what do we do. Its a great game and I really enjoy playing it.

Eny hurts those that won't or can't learn to have fun in something other than the top tier planes.

Get out of the comfort zone and fly something other than then 51d or switch sides so you can.

Before you know it you'll be kicking butt in older planes.

So you're so weak in ACMs other than boom and zoom that you can't fly anything but an uber later war plane.

My experience:

The worst ENY that I came across was 30ENY with only our non - uncapturable  bases left and our strats were at 0%.

At that point, the country is just waiting to die for the next map. There was nothing to do or be on someone's kill list.

There is major discrepancies between plane era's and that's a fact. Its not fun when you log on and find yourself in this major disadvantage. I simply log off.

     I can and have taken out Ki 84s, and later era planes in a Hurricane 1. I regularly fly the 110 G2 against ANYTHING, including Zekes and Ki 43s. One of my all time favorite fights was against Griff(Remember him?) in his Ki 43 against my 110 G2 in the AH2 DA. He only BARELY beat me after an almost 10 minute fight.
Don't cry to me about ENY, if it bothers you, you're a wuss who couldn't fight his way out of a wet paper bag.
