What about one team with 24, one with 40, and the other with 58?

What about two teams with 68 vs. 58?

Problem solved.

Maybe have eny values determined by take off field proximity to closest enemy population.    Sounds difficult.

This is something that needs to be looked at.

     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.

Comparing your experience in a Dueling Arena to the experience into the Main Arena is comical. Thank you. Knowing you that you have decent gun package on-hand, fighting something you most likely HO is very amusing. I did chuckle.

Your point for disagreeing since the initial post by Doc4 has been noted many times. There is no need to be obnoxious about every post you see. It's just me telling everyone about my experience of ENY and my opinion on it.

Please stop giving me images of you demanding more pop tarts to someone from your basetment because you're being a badass on the forums.

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.

Hording is worse for the game than eny. You can solve eny by switching sides. Theres nothing you can do to stop the horde from snowballing.... other than up a 262 and go goon hunting

Only if goons were still relevant. M3-hunting in a 262 is quite a different thing than goon hunting.

Im not the one whining about eny because i want to fly a spit16.

The eny is currently the best countermeasure to the horde mentality.

Good point. A mix of detached bases and spawnable ones is ideal.

No, it's not.   All it does is cause the people fighting a horde to be outnumbered *AND* outgunned, like we were tonight.  Fighting too full dar bars of enemy planes with a handful of guys and we had ENY.

No it’s not. It promotes way less fighting as in the fact every one grabs a gv when eny gets sacked liked it does. So you get 15 bish in gvs and 45 nit rooms chasing the 4 guys on the bish that upped to try to find a fight. Or you get guys like me that very rarely will log on in the weekend realm do to the lopsided double team of guys in 190s and 51s and tempts that can easily run to the horde and leads you to your death.
I can easily up a spit 9 and do the same as with a spit 16.
I can understand eny on bombers. The rest is killing the game. There are a few that have ATLASED the art of picking in a horde and would rather fight the green guys harder for a kill then fighting the red guy for a kill. But not everyone chasing that #1 spot

Disagree. Hoarding is gonna happen regardless. Double teaming will happen as well. Cant stop that but it evens out for the most part. ENY helps control it from getting too stupid.

This morning eny is the only thing that prevented the joker horde from getting too out of hand and actuallt made for some fun fights.
