Cr5

[Feign]

I wish the CR5s out there would start looking at the bigger picture. On Markov last night there was a drop of over 300 NCs on one base on Osher. Half of them crashed to desktop of course, and the other half effortlessly took the base.

Not a very effective strategy looking at the big picture...

Unfrontunately doing something like that it means that every other continent aside from Osher become severly undermanned. Especially the harder to reach ones like Searhus where I was desperatly trying to find enough people to even put a squad together.

Please ZProtoss, use that power you have right now to its full ability. Learn some new tactics aside from having the whole faction zerg single bases into oblivion. Stop winning the battle and start winning the war.

We need to spread groups to where they are needed to stop locks and finish taking continents. Not take everyone and send them to wherever you happen to be fighting.

Just some creative criticism, not trying to bash you at all as you are of course the only one of us who has reached that CR as of yet.

PS. Friday's "United" effort against the Vanu will be a disaster.

Plan to betray the TR right away because you wont be able to stop the in-fighting for longer then it takes for the HARTs to hit the ground.

I think the united force thing could work out, but it'll have to be done with a coalition of TR and NC outfits I think on a rather remote part of the world. Any random TR and NC characters encountered will probably just start blasting because they won't have any idea of what is going on.

Question...when CR5 broadcasts does it go to every soldier on the continent? What is the reach of the CR5 chat channel? If it's going to every single person then the devs are wasting bandwidth. It should only go to squad leaders. In a real war the grunt soldiers never hear directly from the generals, they get their orders from their team leaders. That is the whole point of a "chain of command".

Also, i agree that the "United effort" against Vanu will fail miserably. Whatever side decides to betray the union first will come out on top, or the Vanu will just sit back while you guys tear each other apart. Then slaughter the beaten victor.

I know that from what i've seen, most of the people in PS who want to be squad leaders are not good stratigists or good leaders. I've "lead" 3 squads in the past week for no other reason than the formal squad leader had no clue what he was doing (course i didn't get any CEP for it, cause i wasn't formally the leader).

I think that the CR5s we have now are just playing with their power to see what they can do. They're trying to make the biggest battle ever, which is worthless. Like you said, one big battle means every other area you were controling is now under maned and vulnerable. Meaning you'll win your big battle but in the time it takes you to win said battle you'll lose many other bases. It's just not a smart thing to do stratagey wise.

The [FC] will be there fighting alongside the TR in this temp alliance. I will issue the standing order that for the duration of this operation no one is to fire upon any TR troops, and to ignore incoming TR fire until the alliance is off.

I'm willing to bet $100 that this is gonna blow up in our faces (literally), but I'm willing to see how far it goes.

[LesserShade]

^that's what I say. I mean if it flops? oh well, that's fine we'll just go back to doing the same thing we do every other night.

[Rogue]

Sorry, I can't resist...

What are we gonna do tommorow night Brain?

What we do every night, Pinky, try to take over the world!

[TheAngelOfWar]

rogue ya bastard beat me to it.

too many players are going to see red and open fire. nuff said.

[Navaron]

Boy, I ***suuuuure*** hope the Vanu players on that continent that ALL know about this don't character wipe today, and tommorrow all become TR or NC and intentionally pick fights to disrupt the attack - cause I mean, that would just ruin everything.

[Feign]

Question.

You touch down from the HART and a TR is standing in front of you. What do you do?

A. Open Fire
B. Hold Fire and hope they dont shoot you in the face


99% of everyone is going to just open fire.
The stealthers and combat engineers will CLEAN UP in this battle.

NC + TR - VS = VS!

I will be surprised if any of the forces can even make it to wherever they are supposed to be attacking. The Vanu will easily dominate this situation and have a good reason to laugh at our precious CR5s.

Its a bad strategy which is BEING ADVERTISED.
Wish I was CR5...

[Navaron]

Hell if I wasn't such a stand up guy, I'd get my entire outfit loaded up in lightnings and reavers and just attack everyone from behind. MMMMMMMmmmmmmmm XP.

This has horrible execution written all over it. Next time, see if google will host your combat plans on the front page.

[�io]

Heh i'm glad BOHICA will be playing VS friday.

Dio(scouting in infil): Hey Navarone we've got incoming NC to retake their base, lots of them man!!
Navarone: Shit! Ok guys hold up in the CC, defend at all costs.
Dio: Oh wait nevermind the TR and NC killed themselves. We're cool.
Navarone: Ok guys cap is done, move out.

Repeat until BOHICA acquires 20-30 bases and many BEPs.

[vawlk]

It will never work. You might get a couple outfits from different factions working together, but on a global scale it won't work. Most people don't read the websites and won't have a clue whats going on.

I have since turned off CR5 broadcasts. I can understand communication all continent, but the whole world is just dumb.

[Navaron]

I hope every Vanu Ditches that continent and locks like 5 others.

[Squick]

Considering I constantly hear people cursing ZProtoss to no end every time he says anything on global, there will be plenty of NC people that are specificly going to ruin his event.
