3 Points map has 163s enabled everywhere. Intentional?
« on: March 08, 2023, 06:35:59 PM »
I'm primarily a bomber pilot, and a well-flown 163 is poison to my ilk. Even a poorly flown one is lol. Is the 163 enabling thing going to be fixed? If it isn't, I'll just GV or play something else while this map is up.

I would use the opportunity to become the number one 163 killer for the tour.

Fix is just waiting for HT
Back in 2022 after a loooooong break from 2010. Old name Ratpack, same for the BBS.

Squad I did the most tours with were the Excaliburs then The 172nd Rabid Dogs. Still trying to talk Illigaf, Coola, Oldman22, and Joecrow into coming back instead of being boring old farts!

That sucks.

Even with the Komet enabled everywhere, I saw two over 3 days - ~6 hours of play.
They're casting their bait over there, see?

There was basically just one guy flying the Komet all the time. Ban that clown and the game will be great again!  :old:

Works for me.

Players who can undo in 5 minutes what ppl spent 30 minutes preparing makes the game far less playable for the 30 minute folk.

163s near strats, sure, that's historical and reasonable.

But if you care about the game at all as opposed to just upping to self-centeredly get seal-clubbing kills with no real risk or time investment involved...

Just don't.

Happens when one approaches a field from a remote spawn just in time for a spit to up with a bomb because he knows where the tank i before he even ups.

Just don't.

So you’re advocating to do away with resupplying towns too.

All for map controlled planesets

It would add variety if only certain planesets were available on certain maps..then different planeset the next time the map is up..

The unlimited planeset is the root problem to many issues in main today

As we don't have the numbers for more than one arena..the one arena should offer that variety

But I can hear the whining already lol...

Perking more of the super fighters and bombers like the B26 and maybe a 5 eny for the TU2s would go a long way.

I loved the 163s at Pizza map when they were enabled.
