Needs back to 1 hour again, does no one who makes this game go on it once in a while to see how as big a change as 12 hour switch would affect gameplay?  :rolleyes:

Not even once in a while?

I think it was several days back in the begining.   I've never changed sides.  I don't care if I'm out numbered , that's how the game is designed .   One side is always outnumbered by the other two sides.  I've seen it set at different times to different levels , 1 hour, 12 hours, several days to a week.  I think the 12 hour is the best balance.   Stopped the spys from spotting the CV's that's for sure.

+1 needs to be no time limit and a perk cost when you switch

Has anyone complained about "spying" lately?

Maybe someone should?  :devil

nope; 24 hrs the old way is sweet for me; keeps gamers from gaming the game more than they do already.

Guess what?
Lets completely delete the side switch in the game. Be loyal to your chess piece. The others are just evil scum anyway. Never mind if you have to horde, couse its about win teh warzzz. ACM is for those maroons anyway.
 :bhead

You cant change the players. If you dont like it, change he game. There are MANY choices how to avoid spying <amazing paranoid face here lol>. Heres is the most simple one:
-it would cost perks to switch to the side what has larger numbers. Quasi horde tax. Keep the time limit, one switch in 2-3 hours. 
What it would do? Balanced sides, no switches towards the hording side, but would allow the players to fight against the horde.
Its not my idea. But i perefer this.

I was thinking 3 because it seems fair enough. It's not a "short" time as 1 hour but it's not half the damn day either. 3 hrs seems like a good medium. I havent switched countries in a month. I also havent played as much this month because of lack of fights. Not lack of people, just general lack of good fight. Join the horde or fight it. Pretty soon, fighting the horde becomes a bit boring,

I agree that there are large groups either trying to take a base and large groups trying to defend a base.  There are also alot of people on here saying they don't like fighting the horde and do not want to fight that way.  Sometimes I like to fight the horde, sometimes I like to be in the horde, but mostly I look for fights away from the horde.  I find plenty of them but then again I'm not in any hurry to have some fun.  I don't mind flying the edges of the bigger fights looking for smaller fights.  Well if there are guys like me doing that, and guys here wanting those fights then there are plenty of us finding each other and having those small fights.  I understand that the preponderance of players may still be with/against the horde but I think it is more a question of patience.  If you want to "hurry up and have fun" well ok then, but you have made that choice and that choice sends you toward a "target rich environment", the horde alot of the times.

Finally, +1 on the 3 hour side switch.  Because it will make the game better in my opinion by giving folks the opportunity to switch to the lower number side.  I don"t however believe that it is going to make any difference on whether players choose to fly with/against the horde.

I love this game.

But then you'd have 24 hour side switchin' gamers gaming the game instead of 12 hour side switchin' gamers.

Wait, what the heck are you talking about "gaming the game"?  :huh
