Camping would end a lot more games, if people weren't too "good" to do it.

Making games longer is only a complaint for eternal treadmillers. Diversify your game style.


Actually removing radar would change the game dynamic completely, requiring a player to visually identify a target prior to engagement, so sneaking would likely not be required in that scenario.

Camping is quite defeatable with the correct techniques and skill set, which negates your argument. Additionally with skilled players and balanced teams even sneaking and camping is defeated and doesn't necessarily lend to a shorter game.

Thanks for your constructive criticism. ;)

How would camping end more games? With the sides being even now if you were to do that and players leave, they are replaced. The camper runs out of ammo eventually. Sorry but I don't see how that makes a game end quicker.
Bannerless and naked. Whatever...

I wondered if that will happen more too. I like a good long battle but 1-2 hours may be too long. Perhaps making the chute rifle control more difficult or making the tank faster and more powerful. Adjustment such as those could reduce the game length for most missions.



Agree, I've been in recent games where not one hanger or carrier was bombed. Lately it seems each game is a marathon Dog Fight. Time is a factor for most players. I would welcome a return to a balance in the game.

Drop bombs, fly high, pull in behind and plug away. You're team gets at least to the hill if you're good enough to hold the enemies back. If your best player is tying up a team back near their base, with bombs coming from multiple directions, they can't hold out forever.

Interpret it how you want. Strategy games.


I.see more and more.people now staying in head on game developing their skills instead of using a low move as dropping and sneaking. That is not a tactic just the lazy way out. I see bigger more epic battles coming. Where sneaking will be employed but to bomb hangers not to get cheap kills from people trying to take off with bombs. Now as for the size of the planes it has become aparant toe its much harder to shoot someone and not get shot yourself. The tanks need some.speed because i was passed by a slug today i think he gave me the bird as he went by boy i didnt know.slugs could move that fast. Yes the smaller planes took skill to shoot and some luck but this is a more.noob friendly game so maybe more will.stay and pay the bigger planes now.require true wingman tactics.maybe zup could free up a training mission so squads can practice this we can request times and days for that mission where its all.one squad on both sides. Or zup will have to implement a.true team chat into the games instead of the everyone can see what im typing chat
