So,
I've been watching these numbers for a while now. Even when you do not think I am there, I find out.
The problem isn't which Faction has more numbers and which Faction has less numbers, because to be blunt, both Factions have shown to have almost to equal numbers, just not in the same time zones.
This AK times however is definitely in favor of RG Western Time zones and DEFINITELY needs to be changed because now Asian players will have issues coming. As from what I researched, 17:00 EST is at 5 PM which is like 6 AM and 7 AM for Asian time zones such as China, Japan, Singapore, and the Philippines which a lot of the Asian play base is made up of.
I really think the best solution to these number differences is for sure having some Western time zoned RG players who are active, switching with Free Knights Asian Time zoned players. I am not sure if anyone would make an agreement to do that though.
This could equal to new players who join FK side who are Western based having more help if there are Western players on vice versa with RG and Asian time zoned players.
I will try to play even more when possible with both of my medics when I am not sick, but I do really think this is up to the player base if they want even PvP. People for sure have characters on both sides, but a lot of them will just go to the winning side, even if there is a small chance at some balance if they switch the side they are on. So, I do definitely think if players also take initiative and switch sides if there is a possibility of balance is possible. I however will not be like if it's 20 vs 5, you should switch sides because just that one more player will not fix a thing, If it's like 20 v 17 and one side is lacking a class, go help if you truly want balance and want to help the game and the balance issues.
As I cannot expect everyone to want to be helpful, I do however believe the few who cry in forums or cry in game to help faction imbalance along with having toons on both sides should try to help. Also, this spawn camping in Bunker and AK is really not helping as well and bullying players who do not wish to do that because it's just not fun is not helping anything.
However, if you do have a discord Fatal, please PM me in forums here or in game and I will give you mine so if there is PvP in game where I can possibly help in, you can PM me and let me know. I see when RG need help, but never see when FK need help, but switch when I do come to the actual PvP and see a side completely struggling, but it hasn't really been much because FK have been winning in PvP a lot when I come on and play with the imbalance of classes on each side and RG play knowledge in PvP.
This could be my time zone and when I play, but yeah just let me know.
