What fuel devider would you like?

  1. Higher! Give us more fuel!

    39.1%
  2. Lower! I prefer wooden planes and gliders.

    13.0%
  3. 0,4 is ok. I like fying with hole in my tank.

    13.0%
  4. traditional last item (added by exec)

    1.
    bomber streak
    figther streak
    BURN THE FUEL OUT!
    broz, seriously
    when i want bnz i spent some time to take alt
    if u want to tnb why cant u spend some time to burn fuel?
    because u want quick action?
    so do i
    but i accept limitations of such so called simulator games, and give sth to achieve sth

    2.
    i just made a tiffie sortie
    my route: f7-f23
    alt 2km (in tiffie!), fuel 68%
    low dot, heading f9, probably ju52 otw to cap
    i dive - its red rtbing
    i reclimb to 1.5km, 60% fuel
    if i want get to sensible alt in such a brick, i need to spend another 1/5 of my fuel
    just to be able to perform 1 attack
    that means i will have to rtb in 2min after attack

    whats ur advice?
    dont fly tiffie?
    bnz is boring, go tnb?
    sorry, i want to play this game my way
    now its impossible

    and abouts big-jo's 6km in p47
    yes, he has alt
    he reached his target
    and its time for 1 or 2 attacks and rtb
    now tell big jo to fly sth else than his p47

    what about one of those - rare already - hi alt fights?
    no time for this now, its always long, never ends quickly
    to be honest, vulching is now only way for p47 and tiffie and this plane types to get a kill
    no chance and time for anything else!!

    im not referring to ur flame guys, im not interested

    im refering to arena settings
    i just want to play my game, my way
    this doesnt limit ur way

    fueldiv 0.4 limits my game to 5-10%

    sorry for repeating myself, but be serious broz

    with 1.0 p39 is useless for 20min
    with 0.4 p47, tiffie are uselsess at all


    and if u dont like fights in higher alts, u dont have to go there
    ull always find someone low to fight, u cant deny that, can u?

    what about those who enjoy hi alt fights?

    AFAIK, bomber streak does not count anymore for streak and fuel election, and if you want to help your team you can't keep it (transport flights are too risky). Burn fuel? You B&Zers can burn it climbing, but how do i burn it? do i walk along the shore for 1 hour until it's wasted? Ridiculous, isn't? And i accpet those limitations, but, damn, let's try for a while and see what happens....

    No, play as you wish, but i love to play as i wish too. And with 100% fuel and big fuel div it's quite impossible.

    Yes. Or shorter flights. I'm not happy with that, just like you, but... :dunno:

    No need of flame. I'll calm down, i hope he does too :)


    Somehow it did. Mayeb with this change B&Zers will suffer more than what T&Bers used to. But damn, we've been like that for more than one year. Give us a break ;)

    P.S: damn, no fucking flame, i'm tired of it. I just expose my thoughts, and i like it as is. If you don't, it's ok, but no flame....

    Come on, it ain't like that either. P47 and tiffie may loose part of that great tactical advantage they had, but i don't think they are completely useless. Anyway, i must try it quite many times before assuring that. Maybe i'll change my mind, but at first sight, i'm sorry to say, but i'm quite happy with this new fuel div.

    Ok. I tried it. And a good consumer of gas as p39 is burns it really fast. So good for me; bad for B&Zers. I understand your complaints, though i must say i like it as is. Sorry...

    I totally agree with Perdomo when he completely agree with Spuint. Which means that I agree with Spuint and desagree with Broz and other who agree with him. :)

    I am for a fuel divider as it was before the change.

    @broz: Perdon, no me referia a ti con lo de quaker, sino a los que despegan y van bajo hacia la base enemiga y se quedan al lado de las acks. Es que me puse de mala leche en la arena, y me vine aki directamente ...

    A ver, alma de pollo, ¿tu estas tonto? ¿Como me voy a enfadar por eso? No hace falta que pidas perdon, si yo tambien a veces me caliento y te puedo soltar una, asi que hoy por ti mañana por mi.
    Anyway, it's true i can be called quaker, but it's just two different flight styles. Some like B&Z, i prefer T&B. This time it's better for me, next time will be better for you. That's all. Anyway, let's play for some weeks and then decide.


    P.S: I still vote for fuel div 1.0 and no 100% rule. I hope someday we'll get back to that...

    nobody calls u quaker
    quaker for me is guy who follow con to his acks to gain a kill and die just after that, who never resist head on, who kill ditchers and chutes because kill is most important for him
    tnb is another dimension of this game, thats all
    i do tnb very often too
    for 1 'serious' sortie i fly 10_quick_action_practice_relax sorties and i enjoy this
    but if i fly only tnb, i get bored very fast thats all
    i guess ill decide to wait for more reasonable settings in the end anyway, depending on how much eagerness theres left
