If long time players had a gentleman's agreement, to avoid being the 3rd man into an already 2v1 fight?

Assuming this us about the game,…
I always ask “ you ok with that guy?” If they say yes I don’t inject myself. That would be stealing s kill. 2or3 vs 1 is not fun for the target, he gets no fight.
I’ve had 6-7 trying to catch and kill me. Lil over-kill.

It seems not many of those kind of players are left. I would stay out of a 1v1 unless it looked like my countryman was about to die. I figure anybody that jumps in on the side of the 2 in a 2vs1 is just desperate for a kill. It makes me think that maybe the score/ranking thing encourages this type of behavior or maybe most of the players that are left feel that their score/ranking is the gauge by which their skill is measured.

My personal and old squad rules were "If you're the 3rd man in, you're in the wrong place."

Most don't die in ma 1v1 these days..
If you're lucky it's just a 1v2..usually more..
What's needed is the ability to switch sides much sooner than possible now..like a 5 minute delay, not hours like it is now..
I can see ganging the late war birds but it's sad to see late war birds gang up on a lone early war plane...I had that alot this month..

I regularly ask if he’s OK, but might add you look defensive so coming in unless you don’t want that.
Sounds good in principal but achieving it is another thing.

You guys are still missing a point, for those players trying to "win the war" in either a offensive or defensive mode, they are trying to kill any and all opponents. That is how most of the 3/1 5/2 melees happen that I see. :devil

3-5 on 1 is pretty much unacceptable game play. Some just don’t want to retain players. Someone has to pick one, ya can’t have both
Again, no excuse matters, if its not fun they leave. They don’t wait for excuses, excuses are for those who read here, after the fact, most don’t
I say they miss the point :)
