Birggs has its moments.
TR have the most active outfits and usually a pop advantage.
NC the least and VS have a few.
Makes doing anything hard. Unless you are TR then you just roflstomp anything.

briggs?
most of it is the crown, crown is everything, farming cert at the crown.
im NC at briggs ,
the most active continent is Indar 65% (40% of indar pop doing crown), esamir 25%, and the rest is amerish

.
Indar owned TR most of all time.
esamir and amerish always fight between nc or vs and sometimes TR.

This thread gives me a lot of hope. Varied dynamics and it's exciting to think about all the things going on in different servers. It's like contemplating other dimensions....

I see a common thread on all of the servers though. We have to find a way to encourage people to leave Indar, and we probably need some server merges. It seems only natural. They started with too few, over-corrected, and now need to trim the fat a little.

I play NC on Ceres, almost always on Indar because I like it so much.

NC frequently the underdogs on Indar, often around 30% pop. Often restricted to the bottom corner of the map.

TR usually hold the top half of the map, despite VS usually having a similar population level.

Visited Amerish for a change this morning - map almost entirely blue! Population level very low; stayed around to cap the remaining base but pretty dull stuff; almost prefer being the underdog. A good chance to stock up on Bouncing Betties though!

Ceres not a bad server, get some good prolonged fights during the daytime and evening; things do die back overnight but that's only to be expected. Time to go to bed!

TR have a pop advantage? every time I play they have the lowest. thats the whole reason i joined them

from what i have seen Indar is where all the real fightin' happens, Esamir is ok but can be a little dull, then Amerish is pretty much deserted with a few people going around solo capping for xp

I play on Connery.

By the end of the day, Indar almost always belongs to the TR, and Amerish and Esamir get won by the Vanu, and sometimes the NC.

I think that the Vanu, being the cowards they are, start off on Indar and then jump ship to one of the other continents after they tire of getting crushed by the TR, at which point they proceed to ghost-cap the entire continent. The NC are perpetually the underdogs, but the TR as a whole seems to be pretty lethargic during the day, and so as a result we lose a lot of territory during the middle of the day, even on Indar. TR players seem to log in en masse during the evening though, and so by 1am or so we have control of most of Indar again.

But yeah, outfit wise, I know 666 and OCG are both active outfits, and are active on Connery. Beyond that, I can't say a whole lot.

TR owns Indar (on Connery). It is one of the laws of the universe. The day anyone else takes Indar will be the day the world flips upsidedown.

Illtempered · 2013-01-21, 08:38 PM

Do the VS on Connery never alamo at ARC Bioengineering?

Neutral Calypso · 2013-01-21, 08:51 PM

I mostly see fights going on at Allatum on Connery. Can't say I've seen this Alamo scenario of which you speak.

Baneblade · 2013-01-21, 09:27 PM

Waterson from the NC perspective is frustrating. Our zergfits are one trick bronies and the War Machine tends to get trounced by our own empire as much as the enemy.

We are getting ready to launch a massive recruitment campaign to coincide with the upcoming patch. Hopefully, we will rescue some of the bigger outfit members from a game of mediocrity and be true to our name. Elmo and Barney won't know what hit them.

I'm actually looking for an outfit to join for TR. I've got CGC for my NC account, which is lulz'ily competent, been having trouble finding a good outfit for my TR though. -clicks sig-

Indar is a perpetual three-way: population and territory..... mostly gets capped during off-hours.

Esamir has some good fights during primetime, Amerish is pretty lopsided usually.

Indar is usually locked by TR/VS (back and forth) while Esa/Amer are usually locked by NC.

I play on Connery, as it sits, the VS is nothing more than a zerg. The NC takes what it wants. The TR puts up a good fight and usually has indar, because of their much better warpgate.
Then the other two continents are basically flip flop zerg caps. Usually the NC has them.
The TRG and some other outfits are the only thing keeping Connery from being blue all the time.

Binkley · 2013-01-22, 12:07 PM

I play on SolTech.

Overall population seems reasonably balanced with the edge to the Vanu, though I've not seen them above 40%.

Looking at my kill stats, VS favor Infiltrators and engineers, while TR favor Heavy Assault and Medics.

Over a day's fighting, I'd say the battles are 70% on Indar, 20% on Esamir, and 10% on Amerish

Indar pop is almost always balanced within a couple %. The Vanu own it and I don't think it has been taken in a long time. The standard territorty boundry lines change little, with the TR owning the northern half of the map due to their favorable warpgate placement, while the VS and NC split the southern half. The major fight is almost always at the crown, which changes hands regularly between the TR, VS, and less often NC.

The NC zerg cap Esamir and Amerish at least once a day, the VS and TR take their turns too, but stick more to Indar. It's not uncommon for NC to own both Esamir and Amerish due to VS/TR indiffernce.

NC have multiple outfits that field full platoons, but I've not seen multi-platoon operations. Not sure about the other factions, but from fighting them, they feel about the same.
