Those numbers of Lusche's fascinate me because my perception when I log in outside primetime is more often than not, I can see enough bardar for at maximum 6 enemies in the air at the moment spread out across both fronts, with a heated GV battle or two usually somewhere.
I wonder if it's a matter of at primetime, there's a surge of players that mostly do aircraft so over a period of a few hours, there are many, many aircraft man hours being flown due to the population spike. Perhaps the GV population is not as high, but either tends to be more in off hours or it's just more steady over the course of the day?
I think the other thing at play is there needs to be a critical mass of opponents to engage for people to feel there's "enough enemies". If I am looking for a fight, all I ask at bare minimum is for a 5 or more enemies to be operating in an area. At primetime, I can usually find that. Outside primetime, I quite often can't and wind up running down singletons. Different people have different thresholds for "enough enemies". For some, it's 0.
When there's 300 enemies on the map, there's generally enough aircraft in the air to find a fight no matter what.
When there's 30, not so much.
A lot of the community sees a suggestion as a terrible thing that shouldn't ever be brought up which is a toxic mindset to have for a game.
I also agree with you on the M3s, Junky, but "suggestion"? That's a bit of an understatement. You've been harping on it for a long time pretty hard. Just saying.
Kind of sounds like the kids, "Can we have a pool dad? Can we have a pool dad? Can we have a pool dad?" expecting them to give in eventually just through sheer repetition.
