Common Courtesy?

For LW.... if you fly alone , which most of the guys do, and you're anything below 3000m you are like a sealpup floating around in a great white shark hotzone.... its just a matter of time you are going to get nailed by a RED. I normally fly with a wingman and if we go near the friendly targets we almost always get jumped by a red. Once they jump on you, your only option is to run straight and run fast. If you survive, you have to go in higher and higher till you stop getting bounced. Normally around 4-5k it calms down a bit and you can stay alive if you keep your eyes peeled.

 

The red's planeset is perfectly suited to these maps and a groundwar. If the LW guys just took 3 or 4 109's and a He111 or 2 and bombed the targets it would be a different story. THe He111 takes a long time to get up to 4k and then to target so I think a lot of folk would rather get to the hotzones and get a kill rather than escort bombers. Its pretty much a furballer game right now.

 

Maybe we need a map that has 3 or 4 russian targets. LW need a few bombers and escorts and the reds need to defend. You only get 1 life and maybe 2 or 3 planes if you make it back to base intact. That could be interesting for every now and then.

 

I agree on all counts although I think you'd be better off with far more than one or two 111s, they're just too weak in armour, I don't think even 4 109s would stop a determined attack by Yaks if the Yaks just run straight for the bombers and make single attacks and then dive away. 

 

As you say the current server design and player mentality turns every map in to a furballer wet dream.

 

I like your last idea but I don't think it is possible or likely right now

THE WIND and the Sun were disputing which was the stronger. Suddenly they saw a traveller coming down the road, and the Sun said: “I see a way to decide our dispute. Whichever of us can cause that traveller to take off his cloak shall be regarded as the stronger You begin.” So the Sun retired behind a cloud, and the Wind began to blow as hard as it could upon the traveller. But the harder he blew the more closely did the traveller wrap his cloak round him, till at last the Wind had to give up in despair. Then the Sun came out and shone in all his glory upon the traveller, who soon found it too hot to walk with his cloak on.

“KINDNESS EFFECTS MORE THAN SEVERITY.”

 

A tale from Aesop. Ranting on the online ingame messages or calling people ' boy richthofens' ( sorry Feathered, but you said it) is more likely to put people off showing courtesy.

 

This is the internet, what do we really expect, harmony and good manners?...

 

I totally agree.

Maybe VVS players that are sick of it should jump servers...say to the TWB server?

 

Then of course, there would need to be LUFTWAFFLE players too.

 

Anyone else tired of Airquake yet?
