Yes i have heard all of the arguments throughout the several years i have been playing, and the just switch sides argument posted by hitec and numerous individuals has one major flaw! when you log back on to your country some one will eventually say....."didn't i just shoot you down?!" or visa verse.
 This wouldn't be a problem except for the few people who find it funny to spy and ruin that portion of the game. so good luck with the eny incentive

The only flaw I see is anyone taking this so serious as to worry about spies.

Having switched often, I have yet to have anyone get worked up about it whether they shot me down or vice versa.

I logged into EW the other day (early) and found my normal Rook side had 8, bish 1, and nit 1.  Nobody attacking nit so I switched bish to find a fight.  Second kill I made was my squaddie.  :devil

We had a good laugh, cuz it's just a game.  I switch not because eny won't let me up an uber ride...I like the fights, not the easy base captures.

Getback if you only not switch when the other side has the numbers advantage, how do you find yourself stuck with 15+ ENY?

Dang it, you caught me! I went back and corrected what I said after thinking it through.

Yes, but everyone likes you. I switched to Bishops once in order to fly DDGhost and some of his buddies. The chewing out I got over 200 and PMs from some patriotic Rooks was more scathing than that glance you get from the popular girl that says, "You are lucky I even look in your general direction," to say the least.

That's not true:



No, it is indeed true.  You are being extremely disingenuous here.   Who wants to be limited to using the very worst planes and vehicles in the game?

In any event, the issue was enough to help destroy the squad that I used to fly with, and ( combined with headaches with the new release of the game ) convince the entire leadership to switch to Battleground Europe.   So now I find myself without a squad to fly with.

And to be honest, I don't know another Knights Squad that I am all that impressed with. 

So I have quite a predicament now.   My main enjoyment of playing the game was being part of a well organized team.   And I no longer have that.

It has been a very discouraging experience.

Your squad left because of Eny?  Wow.  Even if they were committed to knights, usually if knights have a numbers advantage in one arena, they are the underdog in the other arena.  Why not just switch to Blue?  Too many lepers in there?

Your being extremely myopic here ... it's all about YOU ... who wants to be ganged by your country that has 3 or 4 times the number of people in my country ... and you all are flying the 5 ENY planes.

I guess you weren't around in the days before ENY. The scenario that I described above was an every day reality just before ENY came into effect. It sucked, day after day, and was worse than any ENY restriction that you may have to endure in 1 night or 1 hour. People were logging off in droves and subscriptions were being lost ... which prompted HTC to come up with ENY. ENY was born from a huge thread discussion with HTC and the players and it was a player's idea.

Grow a set a learn to fly the high ENY planes if you must/have to fly with the country that has the most lopsided members.

None of you guys have even bothered to listen to anything that I have said in this thread.   I've lost the friends that I used to play the game with.   The squad that I was in, the Screaming Devils and its sister squad, the Hades Angels, are no more.  They are Kaput! Finished!  Extinct!

One of their biggest beefs with the game was with ENY.   But it was the latest release of the game that was the straw that broke the camel's back, and caused them to leave and go try another game.

Anyway, now that I lost the people that I enjoyed playing with, the game really has lost its attraction for me.  As I said earlier, I am going to devote more time to my other hobbies, and give up gaming entirely.   It is just not fun for me anymore.

I closed my account a few minutes ago.
