What sort of fun do you think they're having when it's 2 or 3 to 1 whereever they go?
You are not getting hit with ENY because the other side doesn't have as many players- you are getting hit with ENY because you insist on being on the side with numbers. This attempt to blame the lesser numbers country(ies) is just idiotic.
Funny you should say something about people not having much fun when it's 3 to 1. Wasn't it you the other night that added one more plane to the 3 or 4 guys that was gang banging me when I was flying a Hurri 1?
I switched sides to the Knights yesterday because I was tired of dealing with 20 to 29 ENY. Now granted the Nits were out numbered much of the time however you know what? I took a look in the other arena and guess who had the ENY there? The Nits.
So it's pretty obvious something isn't working like it's supposed to. It just shows that people want to be on the side with the big numbers so they can horde.
Something else I noticed while flying with Nits in orange. When I first switched sides Nits had a big horde at A18 (TT map) against bish. Bish had barely a half a bar of dar, yet their must have been 20 to 30 nits at A18.
Yet you look up north at the fight for A5 with the rooks and there were more rooks and only a hand full of nits. I know because that's where I was fighting. So to me it looked like you guys all just go where ever you can horde.
This was later confirmed when the bish got a CV close to A17. I moved down to the fight at A17 at that point. Next thing you know there is only a handful of nits at A17. I'd say 10 to 15 at best, with a crap load of bish swarming the feild.
Where did all the nits go? They were now up hoarding the rooks at A5 with a numbers advantage at that base because the Rooks were now heavily fighting Bish up in the north part of the map. So it seemed to me as soon as you guys don't have the numbers advantage you go elsewhere.
Now, I'm not going to say it's just a Nits thing, I know Rooks and Bish do the same sometimes. I've just been noticing a lot whenever I fight Nits it's always a horde fest it seems.
So as I said something isn't working right because it's far too easy for the horde to just move to another location. That's why I suggest breaking up the map into segments and have ENY dependant on how many players are in that area.
As it is right now there is nothing that is doing anything to stop the horde fests as it's pretty clear even the team with the lowest numbers that's causing the ENY can still horde one of the other teams while ignoring the third.
So by having ENY dictation by location on the map, it would give a penalty to the guys trying to horde but give a benefit to the guys that went to the other areas of the map. In sense it would give a reason to go fight the other team.
