More warning time before server updates
« on: February 27, 2013, 11:15:33 AM »
Because it sucks massively if a you are already airborne for more than 80 minutes, and suddenly get to know that a reset will happen in 11 minutes due to a new update.
For someone in a fighter it's not an issue that big, but for bomber guys it can easily wreck the sole sortie they are able to to that day.

I've been in B-29s before when the message hits,
OTW home after a some good drops and 20 minutes away from a friendly coast at 30k feet,, there is no way i can land in ten minutes!
The good news is,, if you stay in your plane and ride it out to the reset,,  you don't lose any points and it does not score the mission  the bad news is,, it doesn't score the mission!

Agreed.

A long time ago plug was pulled during a Thursday Snapshot without a warning. I think it would be fair to let the guys committed to a Special Event fly it through.

Yep, was up in bombers when this just happened too, never saw the warning either.

What's so funny that you use 5 icons to denote?
