Title: Side switch timer for perks
Post by: hazmatt on May 01, 2020, 09:13:54 PM
What's the current side switch timer and timer for perks.

I asked in the game and was told it was an hour but I had been on the same side for more then 12 hours and didn't get any perks.

How about using perks to switch sides before the timer expires? :)

Side switch timer is 6 hours. I think you have to be on a side for 12 hours to get perks after a win, but I am not sure.

The reason I was asking is I thought it was 12 hours but I was on that side for over 12 hours. Maybe it's 24 hours?

I have never paid attention to perks. They just pile up.

The question is about the timers, not about perk points.

Guess I have to get the crayons and the Big Chief out for Shuffler.

shuffler is blind, that's why he only flies p38s.

on the other hand, you asked about perks on the very first post.

I'm not concerned about earning perks I have plenty.

I'm interested in the timers, side switch, perk etc.
It seems people have numbers that they state as facts but that aren't in fact accurate.

When you get them out, get someone to show you how to use them.  :D

Don't worry about perks and they will build up. Worry about them and you may lose the joy if the game.

I would even pay some perks to freely switch to the low numbers side. Especially with my euro timezone, where the sides often look like 25-22-12, yet can change drastically in a dozen minutes. Fighting the red ones is much more fun than fighting the green ones.

And no, i am not flying perk planes.

Using perks to switch sides in shorter times might not be a bad idea. Might lower the chance of abuse of any kind.

I am on the fence with that one.

Perhaps moving to the lower numbered side should not have a timer placed upon it, free all day any day?

Dale said this one is correct so the only thing I can figure is that I can't keep track of time.
