As much as it pains me to say this, I agree with some of what the base taking people/squads are saying.
1. The old town was far too small and far too easy for 3 guys to drop. A town capture could literally happen before anyone could get wheels up off the airfield. Currently, it takes too long so any surprise attained is wasted. If I was in charge, I'd keep the number of buildings, keep the down times on the buildings but decrease the hardness a bit to make them a bit easier to take down.
2. Radar NOE alts; I had made a 'wish' many years ago to change the NOE alt from 500 feet to 100 feet over water and 150 feet or so over land, I feel strongly that 75feet is too low. I also made the request that auto pilot level is DISABLED for anyone flying under 500 feet. This way, they couldn't set their altitude to a NOE alt and simply let the game do the work for them. If possible, I would recommend the required NOE altitude decrease slightly the closer they approach an active radar tower and have them always appear on radar if they are within visual/con range of the tower at the field to represent spotters/ATCs.

I have more but work is starting to pile up.
