I can't speak for everyone but here is my squad's data....

This Month....

Time hh:mm:ss 32:19:28 24:44:59 18:24:55 41:37:15 117:06:37

Last Month....

Time hh:mm:ss 116:54:41 33:18:46 41:32:06 90:29:40 282:15:13

Better than a 50% drop there.

i'm sure HT has no way of knowing how much people are playing:rolleyes:
complain all you want, but HT is going to do what is best for the game as a whole, not what you consider the best.  did you ever stop and think that people who you hang out with in the MA are probably like minded?  and would it be reasonable to assume that the people who you talk to the most share similar views.  so using your "soft" and biased facts are not reliable and not objective as compared to HTC global stats.  just my opinion.

From a business standpoint, hours logged are irrelevant.  You do not pay by the hour.  

More subscriptions is the goal, not more hours.  

If the changes succeed in that, HiTech has made a wise business decision.

Yeah but when the customers are spending less time playing eventually they may decide the fee is no longer worth paying.

For a Thursday night, not bad at all.


EW & MW ...... 105 players....... 105 players who do not want to fly in a the MA.  Those people I am guessing were unhappy before the changes.

Yeah, it sounds more like a "sitting at his desk after a hard day of coading, drinking scotch and wondering how he could piss the dweebs off" deal :)

I'm amazed at how some of these dweebs persist in complaining, despite the fact that HT himself has destroyed all of their sensible arguments.

They seem to lack basic common sense...

Laz,

     I too have been at fights where there was a CV and 10-20 guys furballing and having a good time myself included.

      It also, on the other hand, only takes 1 "unhappy" furballer to drop ordinace into a town and it is no longer a furball is it????

      I would think the minute that happens your CV is now fair game as this has become a capture attempt...

      Is it disappointing when someone sinks your CV when your enjoying your furball yes

      It is equally disappointing when someone starts to try and kill the town at the base your upping from to furball

      And is vulching part of furballing???

      The point is each player is going to play the way they like and no amount of posting is going to change that fact..

       You can post 10,000,000 times about Furballers, toolshedders, landgrabbers whatever you want to call them ( and having read alot of these posts you in fact have) and its not going to change.. PEROID...

       Your or my idea of fun is not everybody elses, to each their own...

       It is what it is and it is not going to change nor should it for your benefit or mine...

       I am simply having fun playing the game not by your standards of what you consider fun but my own...

       If I happen to kill your CV???? Too Bad defend it!!!!

       If you happen to kill the town at my base and captureit ??? too bad I should have defended it...

       Its part of the game like it or not....
