Auto country assign is what everyone should do
The numbers would auto balance
This would fix it instantly but it's not why these types play, they form what amounts to a prison gang where loyalty and a sort of hierarchical cooperation is the thing. They'd just leave the game if you forced that. They have no interest in fighting it out without significant advantage and certainly not alone. A big clue is loyalty to an arbitrary chess piece. Really freakishly self-centred behaviour. The last thing on their mind is the overall health of the game.
Last day I played MA was exactly like Shane described: they were rolling multiple bases and resupplying so fast and in such numbers you couldn't even launch an effective interceptor to stop a single flight of bombers. It's not a Sandbox where people can play how they want anymore at this time: it's just a big, dumb steamroller of semi-autistic MA internees. But this was not an accident. HTC pushed this path with changes to side-swapping, dar, the introduction of the 88-mm, vehicle icons / visibility etc. The ACM-people were discriminated against years ago and have mostly left. Yak-3 was the last new fighter introduced. What date was that?
Asked until we are blue-in-the-face for the reintroduction of the furball lake and / or minor changes to the MPA just to get some kind of ACM-community going again. Nothing. Not one concession towards making an alternative area to have a bit of air-combat fun in a game entitled Aces High, not join-our-gang-and-share-the-brain, or hide-a-vehicle-in-a-bush-against-real-players for 24-hours a day.
P!55es me right off to think about it.
