bet 1/2 your squad will still be bishop late at night.  even with higher numbers  :eek:.  you guys were before when we only had 1 hour time limit, nothing wrong with that as you play the way you want to have fun just like everybody else  :salute.

I was on last night and changed over to fly with a couple of squaddies. Once they logged off some logged on to a different side that was then low number. I could not change over.

I ended up watching a show about jets on History 2.

That's about how it goes.  It is ridiculous.  The only ones worried about the switch time being less-than 12 hours are the ones worried about winning the war, getting cheated and players married to chess pieces.

I'm more interested in who I am flying with, than for whom I am flying.  I will fight for whatever chess piece I happen to be on at the time. I and many others have friends on other countries that I enjoy flying with but the 12 switch has limited me as to how often I can do that.  I prefer to fly with squaddies but, in the event that there are none on when I log on, I used to like to switch to fly with others confident in the fact that, if squaddies logged on, it was going to be less than an hour before I could go rejoin them.

Sadly, this option has been eliminated from the choices that I am allowed to make.  This is evidenced by the ever-declining amount of time that I have spent in-game since the 12-hour rule was re-implemented.

Anyone worried about cheaters, perks, score, winning teh warz, etc has really got to get a grip  on reality.  Be loyal, honorable and competitive in some real-life situation.  Go out and marvel at the big orange ball in the sky.  It is apparent that you haven't been spending enough time underneath it.

2 Hours.  The win or lose of the map seems to generally take place in a matter of an hour.  AS soon as folks start jumping ship for win the war perkies.  I like Grizz's idea, however the sides flip around numbers wide throught the day.  During the day, every country has a low # moment (my observation).  Generally when I log on I go to the low number side if none of my squaddies are on.

Don't care, don't switch countries.  Maybe if there were a way for a CO to change countries for the whole squad more frequently.  Guys like the few do this already and nobody accuses them of any underhanded bs.  Well aside from noobs who don't know any better.

I suddenly think I might be better at fishing than moosing.  Caught a couple of suprisingly big ones right away.
