Re: I have never been...
Way to REPRESENT (2)manno...you make your twin proud. I would like to point out the obvious...my brother is a better pilot. Now for the less obvious...because he went to a flying Kubra Dam map only for a long time and learned how to fly. He went to a less populated server where he had a high chance of getting a plane and was not embarassed by FACE PLANTING IT INTO THE GROUND A COUPLE OF THOUSAND TIMES. Now we can all be thankful he couldn't pry me from here during this time...otherwise there would be twice the rain of death from above.
One last thing for those "learners" and "Jet whores". Know when there is no reason either of you should be in a jet. Prime example...WAKE ISLAND.

Re: I have never been...
I will say this. I had a very small squad of about 3 on Daqing Oil Fields. Manno and a couple others were giving us a really hard time with the Jets and Helo's. The game was coming down to the wire and it looked like we were about to lose it. We were down tickets and taking on ticket bleed. I got my guys and we went cap 2 flags. One flag was not very important but the second was East Oilfields. We held East Oilfields and kept each other alive. Those 2 flags gave our side the edge we needed and China started taking on ticket bleed. Just by capping 2 flags and staying alive but hidding inside a building while holding the flag won us the round. We were down by 15 tickets at the 60 ticket mark and ended up winning by 8-10 tickets because of ticket bleed.
It was a good come back for out team and thanks goes out to those in my squad.

Re: I have never been...
Btw, I come from a clan that as admins, we held ourselves responsible for swapping teams to try to even things up. Thats why I do it here. I don't mind switching to help, if I'm any help at all. There are a few others that I see do it without hesitation like the manno's, xavwipe, latingirl..
I will also say that sometimes, its hard to switch sides. I can't always switch and I have asked for people to swap with me so I can move to the losing side but a couple of times, no one would swap with me or I don't think the game would let us swap. Also, don't get in the habit of always expecting the good players to move to the losing teams. Once you start expecting it, I'll stop doing it.

Re: I have never been...
I doubt most people expect anyone to switch. But keeping the teams even is in everybody's best interest. We had a round on Sharqi today that made me switch, because it got flat out boring as hell waiting for the other team to get something going.
Apart from the helo crew, our team saw very little action. And I do believe action is why we play this game after all. And I find no joy in winning by 200 tickets. Unless of course it is because we cap the enemy out through superior tactics and teamplay, and not simply because we have all the skill.
I love the tight games, and I do believe most people prefer those. But I still don't expect anyone to switch. But a few of us do, not for the glory, not because we think the other team is just too sad, or because we think we are supermen. Simply because we care about the level of gameplay. And gameplay is at it's best when you are facing a worthy adversary.
Like RV has said many times, it is better (for some of us) to get 30 points fighting against the odds, than getting 30 points (and zero deaths) picking on the new guys...For when the One Great Scorer comes, to write against your name, he writes not that you won or lost, but how you played the Game
