I like hunting stuff, why I dont know. maybe cuz they respawn 2 seconds after they die and drop alot of gold for getting better gear later.

I've got the demo, and because people woudn't lisen to the Commander, we lost.

It was Crossroads. I was an officer. I advised the commander against building a Garrison in the middle. Urban warfare. Two flanks to protect. And the fact that almost nobody was helping us secure it- waves and waves of the brown team, and maybe 5 savages on our side. But it was a good concept. Guess what? Busy killing the chirpels. Nobody helped.

So eventually, when things did quiet down in that area, which is a miracle, not ONE enemy soldier, I ask the commander to immedately place the garrison and start building. But no. He wants to move the workers so that all we have to do is fight.

But there was nobody to fight! I explained several times, and my complaints fell on deaf ears.

Of course, they weren't giving up the center. Just heading north and then building a garrison there, so that they were attacking from our east. They had the really big units now. They are directly attacking our base. We are losing buildings.

So after some skirmishes, I "F" my route and order everyone to follow and take down the garrison.

Nobody comes.

I sprint past an arrow tower, kill an AFKer and a Savage. I didn't have a demo pack, just my sword. I am trying to beat the shit out of the thing. At 75% health, the team spawns. I take one down and then am owned.

At this point I am fuming. What the hell! We can end this attack completely! Just help us out!

And then I discover a new spawn spot. The commander built an undefended (except for me and another guy) garrison, and he had like half his workers there.

We were slaughtered within 2 minutes.

So the commander didn't build in the middle when he could have, and then built a n undefended garrison?

I would have built mortar towers.

We lost the game because nobody listened to the commander. Even though he messed up, we still could have pulled through. And the commander didn't listen to me- you have to agree with me here, I had the correct tactical sense.

"You shouldn't build here. They can attack from 2 angles."

"No, they can't. Only one."

*stares at both pathways leading into center*

I downloaded the demo. Don't really get it, but I wish they'd make ab MMORPG like that, but make the melee fighting a little slower and have more to do with blocking. I love the archery! it takes skill! I can't figure out how to zoom the marksmen bow.

But if they made an MMORPG like this it would kick ass!!! Espically if it was kinda like Shadowbane, it would be like a real battle. About 100 people running onto a field and slaughtering eachother within 5 minutes!

I downloaded the demo, but I deleted it because I'm buying PlanetSide and I need to save space. :)

I saw the preview of it on X-Play (TechTV) last night, and what I don't get is you can ONLY play online, and everyone is a PC?

To me that sounds absolutely terrible, both from being the commander and never having any people listen to you, and from the "grunt" side being expected to bend to the will of the commander.

The idea sounds fantastic... But I think I would only enjoy it if everything was NPC ran, and you just swapped between the commander and then could take control of a single unit.

I loved Sacrifice, I was hoping this was similar to that.

Have you played it yet Squick? Check out the demo, its pretty good, the frustration you speak of does happen sometimes from what I've see, and read on the forums, but for the most part its all been very forgiving both ways. I suppose the fact that its still new may have somthing to do with that, it may change.
