perhaps ... if you want to play GB2 .. then you should play a GB2 room ...
instead of trying to lobby for changing GB1 setting to GB2 mode settings
.. i see no reason for having a longer delay in starting GB1 battles ...
Really? its not gb2 mode settings its just beginning waiting room settings, it gets annoying after you run out of time whether to go north or south in a BB and by the time you pick, its too late and your stuck in the back. and no i dont care about the flagship, and exp without leeching is great, im obviously not saying to put that into the game, all i am saying is to increase the countdown.
Its hard to choose whether to go north or south?
By the time you choose, its too late and your stuck in the back, adding 10 seconds will do exactly what to keep you from ending up in the back? If its too late after 10 seconds how does additional time magically open up spots?
And correct me if I'm wrong, but GB1 is still shared xp, however different amounts and a different xp structure. GB1 is not a normal room.
Quite frankly I like the 10 second countdown, and its still gives me the time to tab back in while waiting for rooms to fill.
As for being able to see the other ships, its not as much of a problem as before where players would change position based on where the higher tier ships were to avoid fighting them. The server is old enough now.
