Penalty for changing Teams

[-TBC-AeroAce]

I fly all servers and difficulties so dont reply with well fly hard mode blah!!

 

I am starting to get really annoyed with the normal server's game mechanics

 

The first thing is the penalties for changing teams. I personally always have to change teams to balance the game. And then what I get a penalty for this?? Personally think I should get a bonus!

 

The second thing that I really hate is how If I go off, are successful and then land my slot is taken by someone else that just joined or crashed!!! Can we please have it that if u are successful your slot is saved!!!!!!

 

These two problems are really making me not have fun on normal

 

PS Can we also have a way of telling how many players are tanks or planes such as a little icon vy their name

Which server. Server conditions are set up by the people who run it. It's not a game thing.

but still that system whether a server chooses to use it was made by the devs

Actually, server admins can set the time you have to wait before you can join another side, but as far as I can see, they cannot set the points penalty.

the game always flashes your point score before each sortie....that is...if...of coarse...if you have any points.

That was my tongue-in-cheek way of saying "Who cares about imaginary il2 points?".

 

At least for me, I consider it a success if I get a victory and come back alive.

The side hoppers are annoying as hell. Pick a side, fly the mission. you know? People who setup these more popular servers should definitely make changing sides incur a steep time penalty.

there are pros and cons. i know what areo means - i have changed sides to help even-up the teams, too. and being penalized for trying to help out sucks. on the other hand, some folks will swap sides multiple times in order to see what the other side is up to (cheating), so they should be deterred.

no easy answer with current capabilities. AFAIK.
