I'm not sure if there's a point in cutting down the number of clan nights, I thought tues sat and sun was fine but you guys wanted friday added so we went with that, I would rather keep the same clan nights than have fewer at this point, anyone who wants to play can play on most days, it's just more flexible for people to join.

I agree with keeping the nights the way they are. It's not a big deal if you miss a night.

My point is:
For all of us stragglers, it'd be nice to have one or two rallying days when we know there will be a large group of people on. I don't think anybody is worried or cares about missing a night. It's about getting a consistently bigger group online.

I don't think it will make the bigger groups your hoping for though. When I first started (and same problem is sort of happening again) I couldn't go on M-Th nights due to college and now if you have it only tuesday and saturday that means I can only make one clan night now. I think it will be worse since newbies especially will assume no one is on except clan nights and may lose intrest in playing with the clan all together. I dunno, I'm just thinking about how it would have been more annoying when I first started playing if there weren't clan nights more often as it is now. It's up to you guys but I still like the idea of keeping the clan nights as is.

Don't get me wrong. The match making is doing a fine job. It's pretty easy to find matches for smaller parties. The problem is a lack of bigger parties on the other end or its incapability to fill up the other side in case of imbalance. Here you would be able to blame the match making, because it's still using the fixed timer before the game start. Prolonging the wait for other players to join would help, but then there is the patience of those who have to wait in the stagging lobby.tanod said:

Hey I'm working on recording a pet project of mine, and for this project I need footage of myself getting beat in resistance and getting pissed... anyone interested?
If you are, please pm me or message me on psn via byakuya769. Simple rules, I need smart alecs.. people who can be funny but not vulgar. Thanks a lot.

Insomniac... Reduce the amount of LAARKs in MP. Also, take away the mini-rockets feature. I also would like to see quitters being punished more. My suggestion: Sony, ban them from the PSN for 12 hours if they quit (Joke... but serious about a more stringent penalty).
I played twice yesterday, and in both matches, I was left to fend for myself against multiple opponents. I was massacred by LAARK's left and right. Here's how it went most of the time for me...
1.) Spawn
2.) Two seconds later, mini-rockets galore.
3.) Dead
It was a vicious cycle.
It seemed like at least two of the opponents had LAARKs at any given time.

W00t! I need to get in games, I need TIME.
After the clan night we had a nice streak of 9 going, then Queeg and myself played some more a few moments ago:
Global games were never this laggy, not just random people warping, but whole games choking (kill confirmations popping up with 5-10sec delay, people getting killed by invisible grenades, getting killed by 2-3 hits, etc). With "global" I mean groups of different regions (eu/us/jp/etc) in one game.
There are no ranked map pack games anymore (at least in TDM). This is especially frustrating since they were still working a week ago.
There are tons of custom games and a few hundred players in them. Those people should be playing ranked, but they don't ... food for thought

I went into one of those games recently and asked them why they were playing custom games. A couple said they didn't want to wreck their stats (e.g. K/D ratios), another guy said custom was more fun, and the rest stayed quiet.
On any given night, there are a few hundred players in custom matches. All the custom games are one hit pieces of shits. If they were playing ranked games, we could be playing 40 player Breach games on the new maps.
Custom games can be fun, but so many are playing them, the ranked matches have suffered greatly.

you can't put a price on sparks
i started playing resistance a bit this week too, again.
its kinda sad that the game never sees full rooms anymore.
i'd look forward to playing a game with some of you guys if you wanna hop on sometime today. i know its a clan night later today but i dont think i'll be here during that time.
when Resistance 2 comes around, hopefully I'll play that more than i did Resistance online
i guess there's no point buying the map packs anymore since no one ever plays them

I'm going to start online in about 20 minutes, I want to get some early matches in tonight.
I signed on RFOM for my nightly rendevous with the clan last week. After I logged on this message popped up -
I flipped out like "WTF!!!!!"
I definitely don't cheat, don't talk shit to anyone on the mic or in the rooms, usually ignore messages from sore losers (aside from telling them to grow up), don't quit games when my stats suck and so on.
I called up Sutdawg flipping out to see if he was banned too (in case people were reporting us for doing good or some stupid shit since he's my carbon clone) and he logged right in.
I snapped a picture of the message and tried to log in again and didn't get the message that time and haven't had a problem since.
Soooooo....jstevenson - what the deal? Was it you or Eric Ellis playing a trick on me?

Yeah...I guess the guy I sniped tonight in the head as I was jumping and he was falling off the ledge at the Hangar...and the guy I sniped in the head as he headed up an air vent as I jumped and shot...and the 3 or 4 guys I sniped tonight from 10 feet away with a twitch turn zoom and shoot boom headshot....and the guy I hit in the head as he descended from the air ramp at the Hangar......or any of the 60+ snipes I had tonight SHOULD FEEL ABUSED. BEECHES. :lol
Should hit 15000 tomorrow! Yipee!

I should be getting this game in the mail today (sat) so i'll be able to completely drag the team down with my awesome inability to get a kill all the while going "uh.. guys.. im lost and i dont know wtf this weapon does."
Is queeg still the clan leader? I'll shoot him a PM tomorrow if so. And ChryZ, i think i played burnout paradise a few times with you but never added you to my friends list so ill do that too.
