Some excellent games with Prez and Johnny (SVER), really enjoyed them, thanks for the invite.

Went up a few levels in the past days, I'll get up to 60 shortly.
We just rolled over Raven in Acquisition numerous times just now, attacking and defending. And that was with a secondary GAF grouping as the first group was full. Time to spam Acquisition Queues to take their buffs. But I'll have to do that later unfortunately, need to go out to get some eats.

Thanks for joining up. We pretty much owned those games. A 3-man force only at that.

After much careful thought, I decided to go Valor. My reasoning is this: manly men. Also, they are based out of Alaska. You may remember another military force based out of Alaska, specifically out of Shadow Moses Island. Valor keeps good company.

I'm really enjoying this game, but my inclination is that the game should take over from useless squad leaders or do something to prevent the squad from being aimless. Had a game earlier where a chunk of the squad were flailing around and only half the time did we have a specific goal.
So in other words, need moar GAF games!

I'm tempted to join you guys in Valor as I'm about to hit 60 also. I want to experience first hand exactly the tactics used by the "pro" SVER-GAF so I can really see what the difference is.Cagen said:
Plus the high respec cost is killing me.
Also I'm getting really tired of everyone runing around with LMGs.

An attitude of wanting to learn?
I'm just saying personally, I haven't been able to fully comprehend the methods some of you have posted and I haven't seen any videos showing me what's trying to be described. I wasn't trying to attack anyone with what I posted.
Wes said:
All is well.
Though tbh there is no certainty which faction we will move on to.
I am voting Raven, but I seem to be the only one.
I fear Valor will become the new SVER soon enough.
Was it an entire clan?EekTheKat said:
Or maybe a party trying to make space, either way it sucks.

I have NEVER won a domination game as Raven. NEVER!
We own acquisition, though. Also, I am loving the ATAC assault rifle. That thing pumps bullets like crazy.

Is there any word out about a patch to balance things out ? It's so boring playing as SVER at times and I can only guess it's just as frustrating for the other team with no chance. It seems like the maps are just so much easier to defend and has nothing to do with team work, even in maps when my team are running around like headless chickens we win.
btw good games today

Gaf going Raven would be epic. It's the only way in my opinion for us to really put any validity to the balance claims. I also found it surprising that in the GT review they mention how out of balance SVER seemed to be.
Is it a patch specifically designed to deal with SVER or something else?

I think teamwork can beat SVER, but their maps are truly ridiculous.BruceLeeRoy said:
I think strategically by myself and do things that help push SVER back on domination, like skip their bunker lines and try to get AA down, but they just have the best defensible positions around their pumps.
Can't remember my all those stats but the only ones I do remember are

Granted I spend most of my time laying in a spot, not so much camping, more like keeping an eye out on who needs reviving. I'll run halfway across the battlefield to revive someone. Same when in Domination, I'd rather be healing and engineering than shooting, but thats just me.
Anyway, been having a lot of good games with GAF although the domination maps get me a bit, sometimes I'm lost and don't know what to do, well, when Squad leader anyways, gets too much.
Sorry I left that game we joined last night thaOwner, I didn't know we were going to Domination and I had all my loadouts set up wrong. I usually only like playing Dom when we have a full squad of GAF as I know we look out for ach other and work together. Had so many games where it feels like I'm the only one with a revival kit (Non GAF matches I man).

Until the day I die, I will always contend that the non-sver factions snipe far more and assault targets far less and use far less rockets than SVER. This MUST be true because I'm constantly attacked by snipers, yet I rarely see a SVER sniping. Even when they have to attack, they camp their own spawn and snipe. It's insane.

No the patch is just optimization stuff for the game, no balance issues.

The patch had better fix the "Stuck waiting to respawn whilst you watch your team win to glory/lose to shame for minutes and minutes on end before realising you're not going to respawn at all and may as well disconnect and probably lose any XP you've gained so far" bug because that shit is getting old, fast.
It's literally killing the game for me.

I'm only half-ashamed to admit that I went apeshit on the guy who did this... TWICE! That's right. He stranded the APC. The APC was destroyed by guided artillery (bringing a sigh of relief to me). Then, HE STRANDED IT AGAIN!
I waited for him to spawn. Gunned him down. And unloaded a machinegun clip in his face while he begged for a medic. Sorry. No medic for assholes.
:calm:
OK. It's over now.

edit: I knifed 45 guys tonight on a Domination defending game against Raven, I was just moving around their spawn (since they refused to try attacking anymore) and keep stabbing them as they ventured outside, fucking hilarious, I guess they miss their Heart-Beat sensors. Can't believe this so-called "hardcore" game has so many terrible (TERRIBLE) players in every faction.

Happened to me once. SVER
Damn, that sucks dude. I had that once with another SVER GAF player and I stuck in the bunker for 15 mins. Though I'm not sure what's worse - the constant disconnects from the game universe, the freezing, or these ridiculous bugs.Vennt said:
Actually, it's all fucking obnoxious when you consider that most of these bugs have been around for months in the betas.
At least they fixed most of the lag :/

Just got disconnected with 3 min left of a battle, fuck you servers.
Milk Lizard said:
I hear ya. When they send out a 'Servers will be shutting down for maintenance' message then it should just stop letting people start new games. I've been caught out before as well (actually lost a ribbon in the process, yeah yeah, a ribbon *river cry*)
I've had the same bug as Vennt and it was with Sver on Domination. Stuck looking at the helicopter. I could swap seats but couldn't fire or exit.

Are veterans going Valor Gaf next? It would be nice to know 'cause the Veteran button is calling me and I want to pick the right PMC. I'll probably play all of them at one time or another but it would be golden to be in the faction where most Gaffers are this time around.
