I haven't played any round that included pre-launching but to me it sounds like disabling one of the most charming things that I remember this game for.

Getting up at some insane time with your buddies in war, fighting the sleep, people coming online just before the time of launch, it's a feeling you have to experience to understand what I mean. I am sure lots of people do recognize this.

Edit: loads of people pressing the launch button at the same time in the damn middle of the night, people getting out of their bed secretly while they promised their partner to not play this game anymore, the feeling of unity at the second of launch, the idiots who just can't go to bed and stay awake untill the launch lands...man, right now, I am missing planetarion as it once was.
