At this rate we are going to need to utilize all of the returning leadership to handle the volume of players joining and reactivating. Good stuff.

How many does SG have in PS at the moment?

Kilmoran · 2012-04-17, 11:19 AM

Hard to be exact since the outfit is so old. It still has over 200 members and out event nights have been pulling in quite a few considering it has only been a week or so since we started up again. I'd simply say that the numbers haven't capped yet most likely and I certainly don't have any official roster information outside of PS 1 itself.

I'd say when we call for official operation nights we always run at least a full platoon.

During all other nights anywhere from a squad up to a platoon.

Since we're in other games as well, we're getting players tired of us talking about PS2 in our forums and want to see what this whole 'planetside' thing is all about. And, some of our older players are playing again just to get ready.

Us old crusties need a lot of time to get warmed up for PS2.
Time to start stretching

Pine here,

Been in SG since pre-beta PS ( joined just for PS). Still have my old PS beta disc(s) ( that's how they spelled it).

Shout out to WingedNazgul, Hamma, and all the well wishers.

What I like about SG, no drama and no baby-sitting. We are over 18 and we act like it. Gaming is my hobby, I do it with folks that want to jump in, move the map, and have fun doing it.

To those looking at outfits: the best way to evaluate us is to simply join a squad and try to keep up. We are on TS (private server), so it won't be easy. But if you follow us you will find we operate very different from your average "indy" squad. (that goes for most outfits, but we each have our own style)

Things that I always loved about PS:
Numbers baby! 133* 133*133 per cont
persistent map
troop transport/multi gun vechs

Things I am most looking forward to in PS2:
flight physics ( I am a Galaxy pilot by nature)
return of an outfit centric game
Hoping resources model makes it interesting

Hopefully the trees aren't made of steel this time

Nice, thanks Eric!

O SG! How did I miss this before...

Well, Markov/Emerald I'll still be staying loyal to NC. Just dropped an app to 666th for Markov, and I'd like to join SG for Emerald! I remember Nazgul, Malorn, plenty of others from back in the day. For those who don't remember me I was a CR5 back when we could actually use command chat to coordinate the zerg, before BFRs and before Core Combat. Whatever method of leadership specs they put into PS2 is where I'll be again, and I'll be sticking with my air cav / infil playstyle for the most part I think. Shoot me a PM...

Ghoster · 2012-05-29, 06:56 PM

O man I remember you guys since PS! I was in NCSF and we raided together many many times. I don't know if anyone remember me but my ign was Sucky5, was a designated squad leader in NCSF. I would love to join SG for everything ! lol Especially that military style of play man that why I loved this game.

Aldman · 2012-05-31, 11:28 PM

Sucky5 kind of rings a bell, but I'm also terrible at remembering handles.

Either way, looking forward to seeing you in PS2!

Aldman · 2012-06-01, 05:56 PM

Nothing like getting a thumbs-up from the devs:

Q: What are your favorite PlanetSide memories?

A: "The first time I watched the Sturmgrenadiers put together a true combined arms mass assault on a base with coordinated pincer movements, heavy armor columns, and calculated air attack waves. Just amazing."
-- Dave "Smokejumper" Georgeson; Creative Director - Planetside.

Goku,

It's hard to say how many we have in PS1 right now. It fluctuates a lot, and many of us are just patiently waiting for PS2 beta at this point.

Kilmoran · 2012-06-04, 02:22 PM

Yeah... just trying to earn a few merits.. teach those interested in "The Way of The Shadow" and how to help the map move with a hand full of people armed with little more than wits and patience.

When SG gets on however... then we have the means to actually dictate a battle instead of merely influence it. The wait for PS 2 has been... in some ways... painfully happy.
