What if...
« on: July 27, 2009, 01:00:37 PM »
I was thinking about this last night during a climb out.  It seem people are always saying one of the three sides is being ganged by the other two or something of that nature.  What if there were only two countries?  What would this do to AH...any opinions??

The sides would never be even and the same complaint would still be there.  "there is always more of them than us, it's just not fair"

Would that be your climb out in the JUG, it does tend to give you lots of time to think.  :rofl

To which I would reply : "Fair?? You want FAIR??  Got to Disneyland if you want Fair!!"  :D

Balance is an issue that will never go away IMHO - just too many variables - I've even played in 4-sided sims and 2 would always gang up on the other 2.  Doesn't seem to matter how many countries there are. lol

Unbalanced numbers are not the parents of the monster "GANGING" Mentality is.   YOu can be on the highest numbered side and still get ganged.  Up from the hightest numbered side fly to the closest base and i bet you will get ganged.

Both good and bad things would come out of having only 2 sides.
Snailman said it the other night when this was brought up that having 3 sides will always change the battle. 2 will be too predictable and boring IMO.
No matter what though, people will still whine no matter how many sides there is.
2 countries ganging up on another is always going to happen, but keep in mind that it doesnt last forever. What comes around, goes around in here.

There are only two sides, the red and the green.

You are such a sexy and brilliant man!  But here's a better idea: All three countries form a tri-partite pact, fly off the west side of the map into the Blue arena and kill everybody there.  Or, even better yet, let's all three countries form a United Nations, send one country off the west side of the map to kill everyone in Blue, then the other two countries can squeak about how they did it!

HT has said that he and Pyro have tested 2 side, 3, 4, and 5 sides, 3 works best!

Not that there's anything wrong with that.
