My rant thread about the Vanu Sovereignty

[Desperado]

I'm going to make this brief, the VS suck, the CR5's on VS fight with each other over global almost daily, and in general the VS zerg has no idea how to play this game

Reasons the vs suck?

1) 98% of VS CR5's are incompetent, ignorant little children

2) getting a vehicle mod is actually detrimental, as all the armored assault zerglings immediatly start spamming a flail, usually doing more harm than good

3) lack of competent, organized outfits


I post this in frustration, we lose almost everywhere we go, and I'm not naive enough to blame it on an overpowered weapon/vehicle, or the pop lock status, as I'm sure both empires have the same cont locked.

the VS as a whole, in my eyes at least, is just a mass of braindead zerglings.

I log off in frustration daily.

the only thing I have to say about the VS is, we most certainly have the best pilots in planetside, in spite of AC leaving to play Lineage II

:rant:

[Mag-Mower]

well, i have the same problem with (ok if you dont like it when i speak my mind, or get pissed, go away now) the NC fucking cr5s, ugh, damn dumbass, here is what happened a few days ago in the sanctuary
some *** cr5(who was broadcasting world wide)"we are having a war protest in the middle of the sactuary"

then i was like wtf? a war protest?

then an other cr5 was like "maybe you should shut up, you might get banned"

did this ass hole listen? lets see

*** cr5 "no, shut up, every one move vehicles to a roof, we will toss them off"

this is where i was getting really confused, so i left

so you are not alone, but in my oppinion, the lasher is way too powerful, frickin' destroys an ant in 10 shots, oh well...

[Retroactive]

Desperado, if you hate the Vanu so much - switch sides! im guessing all the empires have retarded CR5s. the only CR5 i really hate on Emerald is ch0mp3r...
and we still do have organized outfits, they just dont organize every day. our outfit has a very organized outfit night every Saturday.

Mag, Lasher may kill an ANT in 10 shots, but a JH kills a (Rexo?) in 3. ive actually been pwnd several times (yes i admit it..) due to a surging JH user when i was in a Quasar MAX. i hope the new patch fixed it, havnt had time to log on yet.
flame on :D

[SandTrout]

The NC CR5s have been slacking badly lately in directing the Zerg to the correct targets, but usualy keep their arguements to Command chat as far as I know since there is only the occasional global broadcast fight, and participents in such fights recieve many hate-tells.

The TR are catching up to the VS in the # of pilots at the least, while the NC are still laging in that area it seems.

Totally agree with ya Arc

[Neon Apocalypse]

I agree that some of the CR5s are complete dinglewads, however we do have some very good CR5s and some very good outfits.

First of all the Phoenix Royal Guard is an elite outfit, we are very organized, and we have the best spec ops crew ever established. When we do get organized its usually thursday nights when the whole UVA(United Vanu Alliance), gets together and works to capture a continent. Our last raid was a total failure because we had no links and had to mobilize via HART. However in previous experiences we've taken numerous continents fending off NC and TR zergs.

GotR is another very good outfit. They are a bit larger than PRG but they are still organized.

The Vanu actually have alliances unlike the other empires.

[SandTrout]

NC has the NCU (New Conglomerate United) alliance that sets our primary and secondary targets as an empire along with organizeing attacks on a smaller scale with just the member outfits.

VS have held thier own pretty well IMO, but the NCU hates to see a blue continent get cracked.

[Zosky]

What is a CR5?

[LoadedMagnum]

CR5=Command Rank 5

[Lonehunter]

TR have their own alliances, don't judge so quickly. ULTRA, is one, then there are formal alliances. So they don't have a name or website, big deal. Each outfit knows it's job. The outfit commanders strategize an assault, it's passed down and it happens.

[Diddy Mao]

Cr 5's suck :groovy:

[BadAsh]

CR5's suck because you don't have to be an actual leader to earn CEP. All you have to do is spam invites and follow the zerg or join an Outfit that will allow you to SL. After a few months of mindless zerg following *poof* a new "leader" is born.

Also, the in-game abilities of CR have nothing to do with command. These abilities are better suited for spec-ops Rambo types... What real General personally [EMP Blast] clears mine fields? Or spots for [Orbital] Artillery? These are peon grunt tasks and have 0 to do with organization.

So you end up with inexperienced leaders who can't lead a goat to grass and who have no in-game tools to allow effective leadership. The best you can hope to see if basic Zerg control Global Tells "continent A base 1 is the target" and "if you are pop locked out go to continent B base 2". Oh and don't forget the obvious "Base 3 needs an ANT" as if the hordes of players can't look on their OWN map and see that. WTF kind of leadership is that?

So this is part the players, but IMHO more the game's fault. If there was a real system of leadership then it would be on the player's shoulders alone... but sadly :( it's not.

[Phaden]

Well hate to burst Emerald NC's buble, but NCU is fralling apart fast. Sturm has left as well as a ouple other and AO1 is thinking of leaving as well. Hopefully something will rise to replace it....

[DDSHADE]

the TR are doing horribly, but i dont see that many global fights tho, they're mostly cool about that

[SandTrout]

Well hate to burst Emerald NC's buble, but NCU is fralling apart fast.I've noticed, and we're paying for it.

[jdreeper]

undefined who here thinks that nc and vs have overpowered weapons. I mean the pulsar doesnt even lose accuracy when ur being shot the cycler couldnt hit a van 20m away when getting hit. Also the jh and lasher kill in a fewseconds were the mcg takes atleast 5seconds. And the prowler just plain sucks tank vesus tank but with new beef will hopefully change, as well as our maxes pounder and dc hopefully can do something to the infinite power of av and ai max of other empires.



Cr5s need to get more specific like with targets and what to bring all they say is armor well skys r just as important i mean our big armor brigade gets owned by reavers and mossies

[Soyokaze]

I agree with Neon, many of our CR5s are idiots (a fact we make note of regularly), however we do have great outfits and leadership. If you are an Emerald Vanu having trouble finding a good organised group, you definitely need to check out a UVA outfit. I'm also in the UVA, the Xen of Onslaught to be specific.

The current roster for the UVA is:
Ahriman Corp
Celestial Fire
Central Spike
Covert Operations
Ghosts of the Revolution
Phoenix Royal Guard
Reborn Light
Sons of Vanu
The Forty Deuce
The Outfit
The Covenant
The Purple Machine
Vanu Sovereignty MAX Corps
Wolf Pack
Xen of Onslaught

Essentialy the "who's who" of Emerald's Vanu. These are the names that you see on the front lines getting things done. We have regular Alliance Assaults on Thursday (that's alot of elite units moving in a coordinated assault) and most have regular inter-outfit Assaults weekly aswell.

[jdreeper]

ummmmmmmmmmmmmm tr weapons suck vs weapons r to powerful nc weapons r even but jh and van super powerful

( i mean the aurora beats a prow in a one on one fight the raider is shooting pellets r everything and thunderer kills infantry in one shot y do we always get things so shitty

mcg nerfed lets c dc pounder nerfed but atleast its back to half of there former glory but when ai and aa maxes beat our av max one on one i think theres something wrong im not even gonna touch on av max against av max another vs super power

[Phaden]

shhh, thats not what we are talking about, its about commanding and direction of the empires on Emerald. Not weapon balance.

But as of now, i have not seen anything aside of some failed raids on NC's part. And those are indeed due to spies. We bust into a cont and all of a sudden are met 3 to 1 back against angry terrans. You can only claim "training exercise" a couple times before i stop beleiving that one. Kinda a bummer, but oh well.

Does anybody else get a headache when reading a post by jdreeper?

Got that right. And we dont have compitent outfits because you cant get people to join who are compitent, they are teh same solo as they are if you get them to join. They should delete emerald! 8p

no [ld.] ? :( o well, btw everyone complaining the vs are too powerful, stfuplzkthx not everything can be perfect and there will always be one bitch who cries about it, give us a break its not like the nc or the tr havent been uber before(not saying the vs are even uber right now), my bro has atleast 1 br 20 on each faction and he thinks that everyone is equal the only thing imbalancing is the nc with the phoenix, it doesnt matter if it does shitty damage or whatever, its a fucking guided missile for fucks sake

[CassH]

the real purpose of Command is to organise make sher everyone knows the NTUs are low or where to go to prepair for a raid or know that a base is being back hacked.

not this kill spam OS Rambo stuff. i would have no problem if they took those away i would still go for CR5

damnit man i agree!!
thing is, recently theres been a spate of little kids who can master killing ppl easy and sending tells to enough ppl to form squads and platoons who are eager to get more bep, even if it does involve following a rubbish lead.
emerald has so many of them. i have a tr on werner and a vs on emerald
werner sees battles where the planning and organisation are blatantly obvious in the way they are played out.. emerald... people are all over the place and the cr5s are busy having petty rants about no1 listening to them... its because they dont know shit about hwo to properly lead. i mean, examples... amid a huge battle on forseral a while ago, my outfit were in the caverns trying to get a lock and mods to make our job even easier... we ended up needing support down there and as our cr5s were not about at teh time, asked one of the ones that were, no help, just a reply saying, the caverns are not priority here... ok.. so let the tr have them and just spam us with flails and maelstroms.. idiots(cr5s,not tr.)
then theres the recent.. lets get everyone on to a cont, take half of it, then change our minds about where to attack and do a half arsed call for a new primary and leave this one..
we work really hard to get half the cont, then because this genius *cough* idea to attack a new cont.. a large number of our people go elsewhere, and subsiquently, we lose what we just worked to earn. and get our asses whupped on the cont that we left the first one for because spies let the nme know.
cr5s, get ur act together, sort out your petty shit and actually do something to show u deserve that rank.
