[TG] Server - 'away day' fun!

[Ranger]

Bit quiet tonight - no one about when I came on earlier, and there's only 4 on the dMw server now...

SO...

I went visiting the Tactical Gamer server (#1) and got involved with a 42 player Karkland!

I'm not used to such manic chaos that comes with so many players - every corner you turned there seemed to be squads!

And as usual it ended up a battle of attrition at the Train Wreck bridge...BUT THE LEAD MAN!!!

There were non-stop waves of bullets pelting over my head - and all I could do was to pop my head up now and again and bang off a few snap-shots!

For me the best thing about having so many people was that this was Tactical Gamer!

...That means organised mature play on a big scale!



I have played 42 and even 64 player games before on ranked servers - but at best that means you have a whole lot of lone wolves running about individually doing thier own thing...NOT ON TG!

You get multiple squads on your team who are lead properly and working together.

So what was great?

My squad leader saying 'Ranger & 'X', go and lend a hand to Delta Squad at the Hotel!' - (a MEC squad had sneaked passed our cordon at the river and capped the Hotel) - How cool is that!

So we buzzed off in a Hummer to give Delta an extra hand to get the Hotel back. Then it was back to the train wreck to rejoin the guys in Alpha.

These guy were not only co-ordinating within squads - but BETWEEN squads!

Oooohhh, man!



Well worth a trip to experience - But a bit too manic for me in the end! - It was kinda like a dMw game on acid!

:dribble:

I highly recommend that you try a game over at TG on occassion, just to experience the mayhem!

But for me - and probably you too - dMw is just the right amount of action at the moment! Yes, we could always use a few more players...But TG is just MAD!*



*There is a big element of spawn, get killed - spawn get killed (rince and repeat!) on TG - so be warned! That's where dMw is great at the moment, you always get a bit of space to get back into the game, which is nice.

Maybe I am just getting old!

Personally I would like to see more direct or specific orders from the SL's, just as Ranger  says; 'Mono & Whatever go somewhere to do something!'
I know it's something of a demand, especially from someone who don't want to be SL himself, but I think that the team would benefit greatly from it. I know that some of you often team up by yourself,  but I still don't have the tactical overview to suggest something clever (or maybe I'm just not very clever  :lmfao: ), and therefore tend to find myself becoming a lone wolf, of course with the aim to being useful to the team, like perhaps going to a roof to spot & snipe. In those situations I can't help but thinking, perhaps the SL has a better or more urgent use for me...

So in other words: Don't be afraid to boss me around. I'm used to the missus doing it
