As you all have proven in these few posts there are a lot of different "opinions" about what should or shouldn't be added to the game. If I add something somebody *****es because they think it should have been something else. If I remove something somebody else will ***** and complain. In fact, the more we add and the longer the game exists the number of complaints has increased as more people with more "opinions" as to what the game should or shouldn't be has increased.

Our job is to try to balance all that and guess what guys ???..... we're both getting tired of trying. We have reached the point where not putting a hyphen between "AK" and "47" has generated a complaint and it's all getting just a wee bit tiresome.

The AH-1S Cobra that started all this has been in the OOB's for at least a year. It's in the V3.5 OOB's exactly the way it is now. It started out in the V1 OOB's with Hydra FFAR missiles included so some time between V1 and V3.5 the FFAR's were removed. Why were they removed ? Good question. I really don't know as all the notes to previous games were lost in a HD crash but I can guess it was due to a complaint of some sort because I wouldn't have removed them for the fun of it.

It does allow players the option of buying an attack helo with just guns much as Marek described. It's a lot cheaper than one loaded down with TOW's that you may not need if you are dealing with an infantry opponent. Gooseman2448 thinks it's a "waste of an oob slot". but why should a player have to spend an extra 100 or so points just to turn off the weapons you don't want or need ?
