The thing I see is like Thndr said "It's like playing tennis with myself" or any other game.... I'm a Bish, I have been a bish for 3 some odd years and for me this is a war game. I try to help my side win the war. I try to land every plane or GV I take out for a spin.
I have from time to time thought about checking out the Nits and Rooks (Mostly the Nits, Rooks always seem to have more people I dislike
) but not to help balance sides in particular just to meet them.
I don't understand how this balance the other side thinking would really work for someone like me who looks at this as a war game and wants my side to win. Why would I want to jump to the other side to help them win when I want my side to win?
It might work per tour Bops could go to another country but we would still be faced with the same rants of people thinking we should go to the country with the least #'s and take back the bases we just took???
Though I must say that we usually fight the country with the most #'s (Rooks of late)
Look at it from a war point of view..... We enter the war helping the allies beat back the Germans and we finally are about to finish the war, but then we see that the poor germans are now out #'d and we swap sides to help the out #'d Germans untill they have the advantage once again then we must flop back again to defend against the Germans and so on and so forth.... I think that the war would stagnate.
Seems to me that either you just take the war out of the game and make it one big DA (I think this would be really boring) Or us large squads are expected to jump back and forth to defend our country of choice and the country of lowest #'s? Like the EWA always seems to have many more Rooks on than any other side. So we need to bounce every hour or two to make certian that neither of the lower #ing countries is ganged.... Or as you suggest we just worry about the side with lowest #'s and still end up fighting for the bases we took. Or you guys just want to break up our squad totally and force us to randomly bounce between countries...
Do you really want a stale mate type setup? Seems thats what is being asked for.
BOPS and other large squads can be and are a powerfull force in the game and I think that no matter what we and the others do it will always be the wrong thing in somones eyes..
For those of you like the BK's that think we should just split up and go hither and yon, and that it's fun to fight each other.. We fight each other some times in the DA but we prefer to fly and work togeather twards what ever end we have planned in the MA or in this case Multi MA's and this is usually war based and we don't want to work against ourselves.
I just fail to see why we have a war based game if we are or must be forced to work for the other side...
HiTech if you wanted this to be a fair game and have the war in it you should have never enabled squads in the first place and set the arenas so that when someone logs on they get put with the under dog at the time...
As it is now we have squads, a group of people we want to fly with and and objective. In our case to help the Bish win the war or at least stop the other countries from resetting us... Let those who dislike us come forward in the arenas, what ever one it may be and oppose us.. Also we only have large #'s on monday night, otherwise we have a few here and a few there so I don't see what all the ranting is about.. unless the other countries are so poor at organisation that they can't put up a good resistance to a well known time and place for Bish organisation....
In the end it comes down to a few simple question to HTC ......
HiTech, Pyro and the rest of the company.. What is it you wish us to do?
Would you like us to split up? Or is just jumping here and there good enough to satisfy you? Though I think just jumping would still cause problems in these dinky arenas we have now.
I'm trying to be honest with you, all I ask is the same in return.. I really hate fights and arguments such as go on in these forums. I would just like a simple answer from the creators of the game I love.... This game even got me stop smoking in 2 weeks LOL something more adictive than smokes
I would hate for this to get to the point that I no longer had fun or that it forced me to fly in oposition of the guys I want to fly with....
Any way it's 4:16AM now and I've been up from 6:00AM so I really need to go to bed now..
