Well this is a global war style game, not a server or match play. It's about using strategy and tactics to win a war, not chase individuals around the map because you have something out for them. I'd rather you have to check the stats page after I land kills rather than while I'm in the middle of a sortie. I just find it really crazy that you have to resort to looking at Stat pages to track people. Why can't you just fight like everyone else in the fog of war and use strategy to win instead of watching stats and trying to create outside advantages? To me, going this far isn't what most of the players in the game are trying to achieve. It pretty much ruins the war strategy of the game IMO.
I think this was the original premise for the game, but the game has changed over the years, and now with less care from Hitech its going to go the way the majority of players push it.
Years ago we had squads that worked together and ran multi pronged missions to attach bases/strats. Defense was often co ordinated either by a squad, or a group a players working together to stop/slow the attack. Well dones! where often yelled across the radio when an attack was repelled.
Today the game seems to be more about kills and getting your name in lights. You dont even have to land them any more, just as long as they are scrolling along the text bar that so and so killed so and so for kill number 2,3,4,5. This makes for more guys blasting threw with the late war monsters and running away at the first sign of trouble.
Like I said, the game has changed. Has that made more players leave? Maybe, but maybe its the boredom of that style of play that has made them leave too. We dont know, and Hitechs not talking.
