It's hard enough to get people to be 1 of each class in a squad and to follow what that class is suppsoed to do. Don't know how many damn times I yelled AMMO AMMO AMMOOOOOOOO

They never do organize themselves. Sheep need a shepard.
Perhaps because they're just having fun?

I feel our server should be about fun. Yeah, we want teamwork etc, but I think trying to organise squads/classes is too far. As a player I would find it infuriating and as an admin I would have no desire to enforce it.

It goes against what I feel our server should be about. Once you get into strict stuff like that it becomes clan territory, IMO. If a squad is happy being 4 engineers we should just let them be.

Hence vision not reality =(

With chapel, ultron, pennybagsz, myself, Spl1nter, other regulars we did organize ourselves and choose classes as necessary. Its POSSIBLE just hard to do even with gaffers.

As I said, and say again, this is nothing to enforce. Its just my dream that this could happen. That people would want it to happen.

Play the game however you want, stop trying to ruin my dream!

I've barely played any of this game, and I was so hyped for it. I'll be on after work tonight, but lord knows how long I'll be there for.

It tell people what to do, we win. That is how it works. You can either be with us or against us.

Leading a squad is pretty difficult right now because of some UI issues and the minimap. The large version is still not big enough.

It was amazing fun. We need to extand that to 2 squads to coordinate attacks and defends.

We sort of split into 2 fireteams but thats not enough manpower to attack or hold a point.

If we had 6 person squads its easier to split the squad into 2 fireteams but with the 4 person squads we do need to coordinate with another squad.

:p

I felt bad for the other team since we won every single round.

You never played BC2 did you. There was no reason to go any other class.

That game (and, later to a lesser extent, Homefront) is what prompted my thread. BC2 was unbelievable when it came to the sniper/recon class. MY ENTIRE TEAM. asldjfasld;fasd

I still get angry about it.

Well, for the record, I'd be more than happy to be a part of the GAF Superfuntime Organization Team, if we get enough participants. The more coordination in BF, the better.

But I completely understand if people aren't into that sorta thing--no need to force it on anyone.

WoW ruined it for generations to come.

Is it just me or is the Euro server lagging like mad?

Lol I was wondering why I couldn't stab half a dozen people in one match on Caspian. After 6 games or so I finally quit and realize I was in the GAF Euro server.
 
At this point, we have more than enough money (we're near $800 o_O) to purchase a server for a year. Tonight I am going to take donations down. While donating guarantees a reserved slot, we are considering other ways of getting reserved slots to people, as I know some of you don't have the means to donate right now but wanted to. However, we really can't make any promises. If you'd like to donate, please do so before midnight tonight (CST, roughly).

We have also tossed around the idea of a second server, but that's really more than we have time to manage at this point. Maybe once the servers get a bit more stable and the tools a bit more robust, we can look at getting donations for a second server (32 player Rush server?), but for now, we're sticking to our single server.
