As a proud member of the PST Midnight team, (were damn near like a Cheers crowd, Funked Up, Torque, all the rest of yas), this "Rule" that I cant play for who I want, when I want is BS.
We have sometimes 10 players on in our time-zone and available hours, so sometimes you need to change teams just to FIND a fight or make a fight. The situation may change a few times in a mere 1 hour frame, depending on what one of the 10-15 guys are on. It kinda stinks, but there is always brutal matches for some reason. Thing is, you can only make ONE move per night, that's it or it's 12 hours with the new team. Why?
For example, tonight. Since I changed to swing-shift, it was a rare night that I saw Thunder on from the Dickweeds.
I was a Bishup cuz I fly them usually in my timezone. (No Wrecking Crew!) I switched to Knights to fly with him, he got Disco’d, now Im stuck for 600+ some odd minutes Knights when the Fat Drunk bastards are on Roger Wilco having a blast Bishop, and I’m in a B17 all alone having no fun. WHY? Ummmm why?!
I too damn old to be told who I can play with damn it! :0) Let me choose, I’ll give ya $30 a month for the right too.
And for the guy that wants to say “Spy” and “Cheaters” and “Espionage”, in defense of the state of the sim for allowing side changes…. pull yer brown nosers outta HTC. That’s so paranoid, irrelevant, and damn near retarded, I can’t hear it.
I f someone does, it will become appearent, and that person will be handled. They wouldn't be core players anyway.
It might have been a issue, but now with the new map, vehicles, bases, etc.,so much is going on, and there is enough late nighters trying hard enough to even find a target, yer points aren’t valid, and your wrong. YA can try to defend this poor decision part of the game though, but be prepared to be blasted by reason, facts, and consistent, relevant points, even common sense!
Change it to say 15 minutes,that certainly would be enough to discourage base jumpers.
12 hours is anti-paying customer friendly for us sorry tulips that play with 10 guys on each night.
Thats me whole $29.95 worth.
