Don't let someone switch sides and control a CV group. And make it loop in one spot for hours on end. (aidenous, ) a nit messing with bish CV.

The only way I can see this happening is by a time limit.

IE: If you change countries you can't have control of a CV for 24 hours. And if you have just entered an arena you can't have control of a CV for 1 hour.

And if that happens, I'd still like to see the commander of a CV have control of the flight deck. The hijacking of CVs is the only good reason not to allow it.
Most of the people you meet in life are like slinkies. Pretty much useless, but still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

Abso****inglutely!
I'm fairly new to the Sim, but I almost fell out of my cockpit (chair)
when I found out you could switch sides. Most things I understand
where HTC is coming from trying to run a company and appeal to a
broad demographic. But then others I'm like, WHAT?!

If you want to change sides for whatever reason, you should have
to go through official HTC channels, which would take weeks I would
imagine.

In addition to messin with the CV, you can also communicate back to
your Squad on that channel - classfied intel (CV location/Missions/etc).

Ya, spys stink, but it's part of the game.  If you want to spend your money that way and be a jerk then so be it.  

It would be nice to fix it so you can't take control of the CV for a couple of hours after you change sides, but preventing changing sides would be rotten for those who like to play on the lowest numbered side all the time.  Personally I don't play that way, but I know for sure there are those that do and I wouldn't want to ruin that for them.

If you can't change for weeks on end, ENY is worthless.

This is where a time limit would stop someone with a low rank from changing sides and taking control of a CV.

I don't mind the people changing countries, but cross country communication should not be allowed for this very reason.

All someone would have to do is have an extra account and be the other team with that one.

NO Noobs to control CV!!!
There should be a 3 month timer to New Players BEFORE they can
touch the Carrier Fleet. Eveyday someone new grabs the CV out of
curiosity and zigs it all over the ****ing place.

Then how would you be able to get perks?

If you can't switch countries to the side that's about to win the war, you'll never have a lot of perks, and if you don't have a lot of perks, you'll never be able to BnZ people in a Tempest...
