Eny

Can someone explain to me what is Eny and why do we have it? Doesn't seem fair to have it just because the other countries don't have the numbers. :bhead

I love when we have low numbers lol. I get more kills and more perk points. I'm usually in the F4U-1 so that's a full stomach of perk points. Btw I notice whoever the winning team is, they always seem to have the higher numbers lol. Idiots switch for free perks? I get that amount of perks in 1 sortie lol. Also I've known some guys switch to that side, leave their computer on and go to sleep so they can get the free perks lmao. I enjoy a good laugh about ENY.  :salute

But seriously, ENY needs to have more punch.  It's a great concept, but doesn't seem to do much balancing.  IF you know your aircraft, you can find a cheap replacement that's just as good.  JMHO.

...oh, except for the tools-in-jets problem.

Oh please no.   ENY kills so many good fights as it is coming on too soon with too few players...

Agreed.  There should be a max population limit before ENY sets in.  Maybe there is, and doesn't work.

The numbers in recent year were as balanced as I ever remember in the past 15 years. EU night time at least.

Vraciu, I respectfully disagree. Even when there are fewer players, ENY should kick in. 6 against 2 is not different than 100 against 50.

Yesterday there 9 Rooks versus 32 Knights and 32 Bishop . Then the numbers jumped up to 56 Bishop and 48 Knights. A small portion were Rooks switching with hopes of getting free perk points with an impending war win and the rest just raged logged in the face of base loss after base loss. In just logged on this morning and again 8 Rooks versus 30 Bishop and 28 Knights. I frankly could care less about the side unbalance the perk points are awesome when we are outnumbered like that. The glass is half full and it's best we just try to find the positive in every situation. Thanks for the perkies Bishop/Knight :banana: 0Rick and I defended a base well over an hour agaist a handful of enemy players. Him resupping town which was close to our spawn point and me bombing M3's / T34's/M4's/Ostwinds and killing F4's launching from mind you a CV they had right by the base. Finally after an hour or so we got 2 more Rooks to join in and we kept the base. With that said it is great action and always somewhere to defend when we are outnumbered like that. If your an adrenaline junky like myself then 6 to 1 odds are much more fun and it pays well too :bolt:

Might it be beneficial if switching to the low numbers side offered some sort of award such as a small amount of perks? It might encourage more to switch to balance the side, since right now the only reward of switching is to fly a P-51.

A stipulation could be put in place to only award points if the side is in X percentage of deficit to the other sides.
