That's so cool. I was stuck on Cyssor, Emerald, trying to get my reaver out after dying.

TR pulls all the strings. We just used you to clean our bases.

In the end it came down to 8 VS, only one of whom had a vehicle (me - a lightning), against air-supported heavy armor, maxs, and infantry . . .

It was fun for a while, but the long drive in through the warpgate was getting annoying.

But we held out just long enough

you guys put up a good scrap, i could hear the gun fire and explosions from outside as the infantry finished up the last of the defenders. i was the vanguard gunner, i wish i knew who that max on the roof was shooting at us i got a great shot on him smacked him in the head with my main gun.

And Damn!!!! Only several hours earlier we were pushed off Amerish, Oshur, and all Home Continents were not ours. Good Job comming back.

Yea, it happened in 13 hours

. Your buddy I just quoted said that you basically had no continents during peak time. It happened cause everyone logged off at 4 am and there were more of you than them. This can happen in about 2 hours, I've seen it. All you need is 3/4 of the population and you run rampid through all the empty bases. with all the lattice links and no opposition, you can caputure a continent fully in an hour or less depending on where the LLUs are located on the map.

From that pic, Wolf, it couldn't of been that hard to cap all the continents if there were 100+ posistions avalible on the last continent.

Nice to see the NC start kicking ass.

Dude that sucks

But I've already done it on the test server.

InfiniteStorm · 2003-12-03, 11:13 AM

grats to you guys, but this just doesn't happen at peak times when there are actually people playing. You guys probably had about 80% of the population or more. If there were only 8 VS, where were the Terrans at and why weren't they hacking their own bases? But good job anyway.

it took about 13 hours for every continent to be locked thats through peak hours. the terrans were kicked off amerish right before we got to ikanam. as we were in the process of taking the reddies last tower the barney's started attacking and disrupting us. seriously do you guys think all those continents were locked in 15 minutes?
