Side changing request for HTC

I can see it already. They low on numbers and are getting spanked as it is. You switch side because you can't find the CV. Now you go back to your team and take great pleasure in Kicking them while they are already down. Its the AH way of life.

BTW this has absolutly nothing to do with my love for a good vulch.

I think a 30 min to 60 min delay in switching back would resolve any "spying" issues.  Honestly, I don't find "spying" to be an issue currently in the MA.  It may happen frequently for all I know, I just don't find it very effective.  I feel the increased numbers this proposal would generate on the side of the smallest team would more then counteract any advantage in "spying" a larger team would have.

Based on what Cit said I would not have thought you would be able to "Switch back & Forth". Sure you could jump to the team with lowest numbers but you could not switch back as the team you were returning to would not have the "Lowest Numbers". (Unless it was done by a lot of people at the same time even then you could only get the side with the lowest numbers up to the level of the next lowest then the focus would change).

The only downside I can see would be players useing it to stop a side getting a reset.

Or have I missed something?

I think it would be a good idea.

No matter how balanced the numbers are in a three sided war there will always be gang bang - otherwise there would never be an reset.

Not saying that balancing isn't important, just saying that it doesn't fully solve the prroblem.
