Condition of the AvA.
« on: July 31, 2021, 02:21:11 PM »
Hi all!
  First, I want to thank everyone who donated to my cause and helped me get a new system!!
I’m proud to announce that it’s been ordered and will be here soon. So again,, Thank you very much!

  I will be back to continue with the Tank Wars!! So, shine up your rides and get ready to battle it out once more! I’m also considering a couple new ideas. One is maybe a hill climbing race with keeps! Not quite sure how yet but I’m trying!
With the help of our team, we will come up with some great ideas.

  Since Jaeger has moved the MNM to the SEA, and we all wish him great luck in that! I support him in every way. I will be putting up things starting on Tuesdays so we don’t conflict.
 Again, I’ll be back real soon!!!
 Thank you all!!

Great to hear!

I'm considering a new system too. Were you able to find a decent deal on the new system? Seems the stuff I've been looking at is a bit too expensive for my budget.

Mostly I need motherboard/cpu/ram and a video card as I already have the rest of the stuff but it seem it might be cheaper to buy a complete system at this time.

Thanks kenai!!! Hazmat, I went with a laptop. A lot cheaper than the desktops. Found a great one after two months of looking! Key thing is a good vid card along with the processor. I needed a gen 10 and i7.

  I hope to see both of you in the AvA !! So polish up your rides and check the oil!! It’s coming soon!!

The one I picked is the MSI raider.

2021 MSI GE75 Raider Premium Gaming Laptop I 17.3” FHD IPS 144Hz I 10th Gen Intel 6-Core i7-10750H I 32GB DDR4 1TB SSD GeForce RTX 2060 6GB I Backlit USB-C HDMI Win10 + Delca 32GB MicroSD Card https://www.amazon.com/dp/B092DHGK12/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_WJE197N3VC3GTWDT8D8F

From Amazon no less. It should run the game with all the settings! After looking forever it seems , this had all the features and requirements I need.

Here's an idea for you shppr,  since MNM has moved to the SEA arenas....

How about a "Combat Theater" style event like we used to have back in the days of AH and early on in AHII ....

Could have it on Tuesdays Wednesdays or whenever there is no other specific or special events taking place

Just a suggestion...

Glad to hear you will be back soon with a capable PC

Sounds  great TC!! I tell you what. If you will come up with a scenario to show me what you mean, I’ll be happy to set it up. I’ll post a poll to find out what day would be better for most without stepping on mondays and set it.

 If anyone else has any ideas , please let me know After all it’s your Arena as well!!

Hi Shppr!

Glad you are back.

One of things I would like to see is a team death match setup on a small island like some of those real small maps they had in there. I think if it was AVA but mid and early war planes only, that would be a lot of fun. Or just leave the perk planes out. The arena needs to say what is going on in the title, if possible. Like for example, it needs to say "AVA small map Team Death Match"... or something along those lines so people know what's going on with it. Even if it wasn't AVA, that would still be fun. I think you'd get some regulars in their for sure. Especially if it's free to play.

Also, I'd like to see a MNM on the weekends, maybe going all night...give us weekenders a place for close action combat when the MA gets stale for us. That would be a lot of fun.

Just throwing some ideas out there.

Thanks!!

Some great ideas!  We do usually try to say what’s going on in the title. Sometimes we get it wrong.(humans!). I will talk this over with jaeger and we can come up with something I’m sure. Especially the weekend fights would be great!! Thanks for the input!!
