FOR 1 thing,AS the OP said,bases being put into the hands of the default team's who they were in the frist place..

 Its not really base taking friendly anymore,really just a waste of time to take bases..

 Some people get on at certain times during the day,start getting into the fight then the map is going to be reset as they are just getting into it..

 The same maps since this OH has been going on..

  map resets need to be set at 33% for other sides as it is in MW and EW if this system is going to be kept in place,or these maps will only change when someone at HTC feels like changing the maps out for us..

Easy fix here, just CHANGE MAPS

OK.  Wait.  We are whining about the maps being changed twice a day and the solution is....... change the map?

What difference does it make what map you are capturing bases on?  Or, is it a "I can't win teh warz" whine?

Lets see what we have:

Lots of base capture, back and forth.  Lots of fights(?)
Maps change two times a day.  You play on one map for a few hours, then, you play on a different map for a few hours.

Yet, we want the same map to stay but we want it to be different?   :headscratch:

Is that clear and correct?

This isn't a whine about map changing - it's a beach ;)/moan/complaint ('rah) about giving away the bases we earned. It's like the libs tossing out $$$ to every man who says his foot hurts....argh!

I couldn't care less if we won or if the maps changed. There are still planes to shoot down, still crap to blow up, still people to bite on their bait lines of the uber troll....I just think it's messed up that a team can finally manage to get some teamwork going in missions, grab the steam, roll along, and then BAM! Map comes back around and all that work is tossed in the trash.  :mad:  :noid

The only time I look at my map these days is to find a base to launch from and every once in a while to keep course. The terrain means almost nothing to me. It's just another cartoon ground/mountain to not hit, it looks the same to me no matter what map it is. It's green and brown with trees all around.  :joystick:

I understand where you're coming from Marine, but you've gotta think HiTech has a good reason for doing this.  He isn't one to micromanage game play so if he makes these changes, you know he felt it was absolutely necessary.

Anyway, my foot hurts, gotta go get some free money!  :bolt:

Ya MarineUS' you earned them. You and 35-40 of your closest friends. You earned nothing. Hording a base capture is like wiping all of your apponets checkers off the board with your hand and calling it a win.

Maybe HTC has decided "horde captures" don't count :p

OMG! You only think in terms or generalizations and stereotypes don't you?  How are you so sure these bases were captured with hordes?

Well Sunbat, while you remove your foot from your mouth I'll explain. - was at 3 of the captures getting my bellybutton handed to me while I and 4 or 5 other tried to slow the horde down.

During these horde attacks friendlies were flying AWAY for the attacks. Why? Beccause itks not all that much fun to spend most of your afternoon getting ganged by a bunch of skilles dweebs. We all can't fly with the awesome skills of a Muppet.

Soooo today, the EST afternoon shift (Bishops) captured A9 about 3 minutes before the "5 minute until Arena Lock" message appeared. Now, before the lock, we owned 43% of the Knight's fields, tonight when the OH arena opened up we only had 20%.....someone explain this to me.... :joystick:
