Title: Countries and Numbers
Post by: Betown on June 24, 2001, 03:14:00 PM

Ok guys,
      We have all had many threads about this before but what I want to know is how many of you actualy think that 2 countries instead of 3 would work?

IMHO I think that 2 countries with a "Country Signin" System would be great <---Kweassea's idea. That way you have to sign on to a country and fight for that country.

Just to run something past you....

25 rooks
20 knights
49 Bish

Rooks + Knights = 45
Bish = 49.

Could work?
Ideas?

Numbers change hourly, when you posted this it looked more like this...

History has shown that a 2 sided conflict ends up very unballanced in a hurry.  I dont know what you mean by country sign up, but just how do you force a person to fly for a certain country....what if they are trying to join a squad?

The only effective way to balance teams is to make players want to join the other country (perks or whatever).

gotta agree with 2late on this one....

if you force them to choose a side when they first log on...a lot of people will choose the side with the most numbers.

but by offering them a "reward" for flying for the underdog, and actually making that reward worth something...we might actually see a bit of balance in the MA

like it or not, that's just my opinion  :cool:
