Recend the 12 hour side switch rules

[guncrasher]

Well I never said you must switch teams to make friends. I also never said anything was "wrong". The point I was making is that there is good people all over.

pipz it was implied when you said you never understood the mentality of those unwilling to switch countries.

Semp you just happened to take it that way. It is true "I" do not understand what the big deal is. Doesn't make anything "wrong". There are decent people on every team and I enjoy both flying with and against them. If you have a different point of view that's fine. Have fun, that's what it is there for!


Cya up!

Quite a number players are totally hostile against any form of sideswitching

Who would want to be anything other than a Knit once your promoted to Knitland?

Having the ability to switch is great.  I personally don't right now.  But I understand why someone would want to.  The ONLY downfall is that someone may see an attack group launching and know about the mission, switch and intercept (or go sink a CV they know where it is now).  BUT...   ...They are then there for 6 hours now.  And I believe they have to be logged to that country to win perkies for map wins.  So it only hurts them in th elong term unless they are going to a side with low numbers and up high ENY planes and rack up the perkies that way.  Nothing wrong with that.  I believe the 6 hours is sustainable and effective.

I like that it was changed to 6 hours in LW.  It may or may not make an impact, good or bad.  Let's just wait and see.

I believe in MW it is 1 hour.  That being said, I appreciate the guys and gals that switch in there.  Mainly because a side gets REALLY heavy.  The fight ends up on the other end of the map, the  ones looking for action can switch to go over there and defend.  Who seriously doesn't want a level of opposition when attacking a base?

More people than you think.  Same reason people get snarly when their mishun gets intercepted.  Some call that 'gameplay'.  Some call it 'griefing'.

It's got nothing to do with why HTC put it there, but I don't think I've ever seen a player say they were against changing it because it smooths out large swings in player numbers.  It's always teh spiezzz.

well then this will be your fist time.  back when it was a 1 hour switch time, when the a country was about to win the war the winning side would get an influx of switch players trying to win the war.  didnt matter which country was wining.  and the spiez thing has always been a minority of players.

And that's changed with the 12/6 hour rule how?  People still switch to the winning side when they're getting close.

Never said that's why it was changed. I did say, however, that people with a fear of spies seem to blindly support the 12hr rule.
