Title: Inflight and In-GV
Post by: Dobs on November 07, 2016, 12:37:04 PM
Would be nice to be able to log in and take a look at numbers inflight, vs numbers In-GV.  Anyway to make that so?

I've always thought a live feed of channel 200 or something on here would be better. As far as in flight vs in GVs.....feel like that could be too telling for what a country is doing tactically.

It would be a live feed of politics and complaining.

When hide and seek is a major part of an aerial combat MMOG the death of the game is on the horizon.

Doesn't even have to be be by country.

180 people online
20 inflight
140 in GVs
20 in guns.

Something along those lines.

Sort of tell you whether to go paint grass to watch it grow and dry at the same time or play.

Maybe just an animated clown.

Happy clown = most people are flying

Sad clown= most people sitting in a tank or gun.

Hide and seek has been here since the days of Titanic Tuesdays....don't think the peak a boo horde will be the death of the game....personally I think anything that forces a team to not up and actively defend a base...Town resupply....will be the death of the game.

Yea that would be good but only problem is chess piece loyalty...a lot wouldn't get a clear picture but I guess it's give and take.

-1000 this could cause worse low numbers.

Ten guys look at the app/site and say to themselves "I'd log on if there was ten more players."

If those ten guys all actually log on to check when the other nine are doing the same, the numbers might be high enough for them to decide to stay logged on and play.

Slight problem. The game has every vehicle listed as a plane. For instance, ".plane 21" is the M16 MGMC. And when you launch your vehicle you ".fly" it.

Not really.

Everything is numbered. Quick work to designate which numbers are cockroaches.

I would never call GVs cockroaches. This game is one of the best (I would say THE best) tank games online, and CUSTOMERS that support the game drive those GVs.

Not sure how quick a change like that would take, but I also don't think it would be worth it. It would be divisive of the community in the game, because we already get people screaming for users to stop resupplying, stop GVing, and come help them do what they are doing. You don't have to ask for a participation trophy to play AH, so play it your way and let the public shaming stop.

Doesn't make much difference either way.  You can log in and see that there is enough bardar for 3 bandits on both fronts of your country within a couple minutes once the map sorts itself out, then you have the answer to your question and can act accordingly.
