Beetle is your best source of comedy entertainment for the day?

wow

Yep. Been some pretty awful/sad days around here lately. People dying, going into the hospital, etc. Not much to laugh at in real life.

Your breaking my heart.

Could be worse. You could be a parrot of laz and be consumed about how a online video game is played, prompting people to believe if you fly early war planes and only dogfight in a goofy video game, your extra special. Or just as bad, making up fictional characters like strats, furs, and griefers just to argue about them in that same video game every single day, week in, week out. I mean, then your life would be ass.

Mr. Toad! I haven't seen you all day, and was beginning to worry about you. Welcome back! I'm glad you're so easily amused - and they say humour doesn't travel - but what do *they* know...

When I saw your quote of me, I started wondering if I'd slipped up in some way. I am indeed indifferent to field spacing - perhaps I should have qualified that by adding that they can move 'em further apart if they want to, or have the pizza map up permanently.

But moving the fields even closer together? What, a 5 minute flight to the nearest base is too long?

Don't know what to make of this post, Mr. Toad. I'm starting to feel that you're losing it. So I'll just sit here, drink a tipple of vodka (Finlandia, with Absolut to follow) and juice, and raise my glass to Creamo.

Raise it, but I am pretty sure he's poking fun at you too.

"When" Creamo speaks I have visions of him squated down in the center of a room devoid of furniture playing with knives making gutteral mumblings out of the side of his neck..

Am I alone in this ???

But that still wouldn't be nearly as bad much as if you thought that cowl flaps were a really important gaming aspect of an acm game.

Beetle, the hospital doesn't have a public internet browsing station. You'll just have to wait until I take breaks. Like now. Ta-ta.

Mr. Toad,

What kind of break are you taking? Does it involve a drink? If so, and when you have finished, hold the empty drinking vessel to your ear, and listen carefully. That sound you can hear - that's the sound of HTC working on your map changes.

Muhahahahaha!

:D

I dont consider myself a strat guy. I mean, I may jump in on the offhand base capture if there are multiple FDBs in the arena and we happen to deack a base and have a fairly good vulch going and someone decides they want to bring a goon.

I also dont consider myself a furball guy. I mean, I like to mix it up high or low in most cases as long as the sides are fairly even. My problem is that I hate the small maps.....absolutely despise them. There is no way to avoid the gangbangs on the small maps. It doesnt matter where you go, the fronts are so small that there is always a horde on the way to whatever base you want to fly from. At least on the bigger maps, you can head out to a base along the perimeter of the front and rustle up some action that is usually even for both sides but doesnt turn into a huge gangbang. Maybe 5 on 5 or so.

I have to say though that a lot of the squeaking and moaning lately has gotten extremely repetitive. I think some folks are just squeaking because they got nothing better to do. If the game gets under your skin that badly, maybe its time for a break. You would be surprised how good a short break is...even if its only a couple of weeks.

This is supposed to be fun....getting all worked into a frenzy because your fields are too far apart or those damn furballers arent playing right is ridiculous. Relax....take a deep breath...its gonna be all right. Really.

curly... you are NOT payintg attention... the early war area that I am talking about would not be accessable to late war planes... you couldn't get there and pork anything in a late war plane. Get it? both it and the regular area would have caturable fields and both would have seperate resets... when you captured one countries 7 or so early war fields then you would (lol) "win the early war".

so what is the potential problem again?

I can see the potential problems with the other idea of a place like tank town.... That wasn't my idea... it would be better than nothing but it wouldn't last.

creamo... if you claim that nothing is wrong with the game or gameplay and then your stats show that yu don't even play... then.. your stats do take on meaning.

Same goes with a lot of folk... when they tell me that I am doing something wrong because they have "no trouble" finding any kind of fight they want "anytime they want" and then their stats show that they fight only one way and that it is nothing like the way I would want to spend my time.... Well... then their stats are relevant.

If you want to defend the status quo based on the fact that it suits your style... fine.. If you want to defend it based on the lie that it suits mine and that I just don't know how to use it... well, then you had better have the stats to back it up.

Can you give a better reason other than "because that's the way you'd like it"?

Beetle....

How about it never happened in RL? One single aircraft penetrating enemy airspace, single handedly wiping out an entire bases fuel.

It would have if no one bothered to intercept it.
