Don't forget about the scheduled game tonight at 6pm PST. Also, this my next last clan-post. I'm moving down to Australia again as I've posted about earlier and someone needs to continue this. Time is running out, someone step up please. .

Standard meet up times (for whenever you have the opportunity):

Tuesdays 6pm PST

Saturdays 6pm PST

Sundays 6pm PST

(Monday Jan 29th: Times adjusted slightly in favor of the ESTeemed)

Suggestions suggest(!) that creating parties and going into ranked games together would be the preferred thing to do for the meet ups. So no longer do the first one to get online create a room but instead invite everyone to a party. This however makes it very important that you're all a part of the NeoGAF clan (pm kaching with details, make sure you've logged on to Resistance online at least once before) or simply have all folks listed above on your friend list. Again, the first one to get online should start a party and invite the others as they come online.

Also, it has come to my attention that over 20 people have started to show up for these meetups and that means one party is not enough. If that is the case then one of you simply need to create a second party. If you're the party leader (of either) then posting your details in this thread would be helpful.



The Wedge tactic explained:

Remy said:
The "flying wedge" is the term given to our tendency to mob together in a violent swarm and shoot the everliving hell out of anyone who dares get near us. It leads to multiple assists per kill which leads to a 20-60% increase in points. 16 points for a kill is far better than 10!

It does not, despite its name, resemble a true flying wedge - although generally whoever is at the front of the pack will get gunned down while those behind break through and destroy the opposition. So maybe it's not completely inaccurate.

I forget who came up with the term in context. Wasn't my idea, although I seem to be the Preacher Of All That Is Wedge-like.

Also people, it would be a big plus if everyone invested in a headset. For headset details and recommendations, follow this link. Good group play is helped by using your headset to report in changes that occur in the heat of battle. Enemy groups, Snipers, Node status and so forth.

A great addition was made to http://www.myresistance.net on Monday Feb 5th in the form of leaderboards viewable straight from the site. It's time to get famous or die trying.

PM kaching your PSN id and be online at 9PM EST ready to go. If you still haven't got an invite then just message me that you want an invite (I think I'll be on tonight). If that doesn't work just post on the forums that you need an invite and someone in the clan should be browsing the forums and spot it.

I'll be on tonight - maybe. Going to watch a movie, and then maybe after that. I really want to play, but have to give time to the family. If not tonight, tomorrow for sure!

GAF it up, boys!

Just came back from a party. Only played 1 TDM with the clan before it disbanded. Good to meet you TONX and squikn. My audio is not working for some reason, so I can't hear any of your chatting.

Has anyone ever had the problem where they'll be playing and the screen will leave for like a second or two? Happened to me last night in the middle of a gun fight. The screen just went to the blank HDMI screen and then switched back to the game. Good thing I came out on top of the fight or I'd be sad :(. I'll be able to play some games tonight till about 11pm est since tomorrow is one of my get up at 5am for work days :(.

It's kind of like the controller Bluetooth bug. It happens once in a blue moon. It's annoying. :( It's an HDMI "handshake" thing. I don't think you need to worry about anything like your PS3 blowing up though.

I'll be on tonight, though me wife is going to watching t.v. then too.

Hmmmm. I might try the picture and picture (that's what sony calls it) tonight. She can watch t.v. on one half, and I can play on the other.

I might be on tonight. Not sure as I'm two weeks out from finals and need to get some things done so I'm not up to my neck in working by the end of this week.

Last night in the lobby I said I'm enjoying HD programming for the first time and someone said I would watch ANYTHING. He was RIGHT, freakin' Metallica going emo "OMG I FEELZ SO DARK AND LONELY INSIDE SOMEONE PLZ HOLD MEEEEE, OH OH YALL DON'T LUV MEEEEE WAAAAAHHHHH I'M GOING REHAB NOW KTHXBYE", and I'm watching it, OMFG I want to punch them in the face. I don't even like Metallica.

Anyway I think I'm going to be on tonight, maybe earlier than last night.

Yeah...that was me. I told you so. When I first got HD, I would have watched The Paint Drying Channel if it was broadcast in HD. I would have been like "No, I can't go out tonight...they are doing an hour long special on Dutch Boy paint tonight...I can't miss that!"

DiscoveryHD is the fuse. ESPNHD is the flame. "Bikini Destinations" is the bomb.

Don't forget about the scheduled match tonight at 6pm.

Also, this is my last 'call to arms' post (since I'm now moving back to Australia) so now you guys are left to your own devices. :)

Good games guys. We only lost once at that was our last match but we kind of rolled over everyone like a garbage truck.

I was playing the campaign and decided to log into the lobby for kicks. There were a bunch of GAF people in games, but I couldn't figure out how to see what games the people were in or even how to find a listing for it - I suck. :(

I did do a random ranked game of Breach and was getting my butt kicked - not to mention I had little idea of what was happening.

In the campaign I just got past
The tunnels - that tall part where you're climbing the tubes is pretty "wow" inducing, IMO.
, and now I'm in
the part where you get dropped in London - though I'm unclear how in the story Hale ended up from like the third floor of that tower and suddenly he's in London.

In any case, I can't get out of the freaking building they start you in. It's a freaking mob in there and I always run out of freaking ammo and get cornered. The game's starting to feel a little cheap there, but I guess I'll muddle through it somehow.

Yeah, that was the toughest part of the game for me, getting outside in London. But trust me, once you do get outside and get "rolling" in London, you'll get one of the biggest rewards the game has to offer.

Games were awesome tonight. Love having 18-20 players show up on Clan Nights.

You played great for a noob with no headset. You also started out on the biggest maps, since we had so many GAFers online. Once you get a headset, you'll know what's going on and where to go a lot easier. Besides, it's all about having fun.

Man, I just am not good playing as a human. As a chimera, I do really well, but my game takes a major hit when I'm human. I think I'm getting too reliant on tagging people and constantly having sprint engaged as a hybrid, so I feel really off playing as a human. But we're still winning most of the time so I'm happy.

Dave, the wedge refers to football where a mass of blockers form a "wedge" to bust open a hole for the return man to run back kicks. I'm guessing that's GAF's usage of the word, a large mass of people tightly clustered, ready to get rocketed or grenaded for an easy multi-kill ;)

Edit: And might I humbly make a suggestion to any developer reading this threa? Please level some sort of quitting penalty. Maybe if someone quits a ranked game, bar them from entering another ranked game for 10 minutes. We've been running into lots of quitter recently.

I usually play better as Chimera as well. Their rage mode is super useful. My best weapon - by far - is the Bullseye.

Still, I don't play badly as a Human. The radar is very helpful, being able to run indefinitely is handy, and starting with a grenade helps big time. I think overall I've had more fun playing as Human than I have Chimera.

The one thing I've noticed is that you have to approach the game differently as a Human than you do as a Chimera. The strategy changes completely.

Yeah, that will be helpful. The more we play together, the more other players hear about us. Even though we're not the best, we're good enough to make some people not want to bother playing, so they take off - that sucks. The other problem is that on clan nights there are so many of us, the opposing team goes O_- looking at all the GAFers, has a nervous breakdown and quits instead of just trying to kick our ass.

Still, it's nice to be able to steamroll. Feels good. hahaha
