Why not just create various game modes players can have fun with so nobody feels like cheating if they want more visibility or not. This will keep the community from dividing itself over players who insist on realism and those who just want to play a game.


Realism Mode: Cockpit cannot be disabled
Benefit: 10% extra GXP
Downside: Reduced visibility and Cockpit glass glare

Arcade Mode: Cockpit disabled
Benefit: 10% extra Cbills
Downside: Zoom and Advanced Zoom disabled

VR-Simulation Mode: Cockpit can be toggled
Benefit: 10% extra Pilot XP
Downside: 30s cooldown on toggle. Zoom disabled while cockpit is disabled


Share some of your fun ideas while we wait for the matchmaker to be fixed.

No to all yours. What issue are you talking about, the crappy new effect on the glass? It's not even that bad, doesn't effect my ability to see at all, It's just annoying.

Well since folks figured out how to turn it off, it isn't a problem for other folks either.

To many queues will result in poorly matched games due to smaller samplings in each queue so,while a nice idea on the surface there are undesired side effects.

As it is now we already have...

Assault only queue
Conquest only queue
Skirmish only queue
12 v12 grouped play queue seperated from...
solo and 4 player group queue.

Effectivley meaning we already have 6 player pools to draw matches from we don't need another 18.

Annoying and slows down game it seems.
