For me personally, I don't trust those who switch sides too much. If all of a sudden they put up a mission I'm not joining. They have no vested interest in the chess piece. I'm not saying they are spies but they certainly don't seem to have the conviction to defend a base at all cost or to take another base all cost. With that said it never hurts to have a few folks around who want to mix it up and fun is determined by the individual.
One thing I've noticed about some side switchers is that they want the safety of a horde. That is too say not all go for that. Like Juggler for instance, he just wants the fight, as does Agent360 and many others.

I side switch all the time..often every day...sometimes I stay on one side for days and days. When it gets slow in the arena I like to go attack...bomb some stuff...strafe some stuff. Find some Gv's...etc....when the fighters up..I back in with a fighter. As for the chess piece I don't give a dam. But whatever side I'm on I will fight for the goal....whatever that is.
As for switching mid fight like say around 10pm central..well that happens alot with the muppets. Sometimes it's a split squad due to the 12 hour rule....do we talk about where the fight is and what missions are up ..YES...we do...any other squads saying otherwise are lairs....Do we give intel about that to other squads or otherwise "spy"...NO...hell freaking NO.
As far as the muppets go we are in it for the pure fun of killing red guys or starting a fight to begin with, or helping take a base. We have no interest in "spying".
The muppets dont give a dam about the war. We just want to own you in the air...or stop ur hord base take in its tracks....or bomb the crap out of your GV spawn camp..etc.
Strategy is totally fubar in this game...its a total pooch screw. 12 hour rule doesn't matter...well...only for spies. But so many shades...split squads...etc you can see how it doesn't matter. The intel leeks out anyway...pm...phone...faceboo
k...instant messaging...3rd party vox...it is endless.
This whining about spying and so forth is stupid.
I whined about this in another thread....the 12 hour switch does nothing but screw up players fun.
As for the whole dam "massive online combat" line HTC is feeding you people...well thats a load of crap....When HTC gets 1000 players online EVERY night then I will agree with his arean setup...Till then its just a bunch of BS...with a niche group whining against another niche group.
