I get it but I'm not so sure if that's the best approach. On a broader scale and from a management perspective that is. If you have evidence or feel reason that some particular 'admins' are abusing the system or their privileges then talk to them and if there's no reasonable explanation simply take away some or all of their rights. Being an admin is a privilege not a right. We're supposed to be a team that 'in good judgement' try their best to keep the server-population as happy as we can playing awesome rounds. Sure we all make mistakes, heck I have... But as soon as my name pops up as an abuser of rights TALK to me. I probably made a mistake or have a good explanation. This community is also supposed to be about trust. We're supposed to trust and discuss our actions to keep the server neat and clean. I will call out an admin if I think they're abusing powers and I think we should move more forward to that 'comradery' rather than a 'secret police' looking to round up traitors. But those are just my 2 cents. Again I get it but I know most, if not all the non- =VG= admins and I think they're always trying to make the game as much fun as possible.

Ah great! Just while my wife is away...

I got so slaughtered on that second map... Painful to watch.

Yep doing it now. The guys are helping

Hi Ted, I am a little lost here. I don't have a Grozny folder

I'd like to join as well but I'm moving house and city this week so not sure if I'd be all set. In theory I should be. Can I join preliminary in Blue T62?

I'm with Ted on this one. It's already a pain locking your squad to facilitate solid infil and exfil at 7 just to use airlift effectively. But leaving 2 guys behind limits your squad to 6 if you plan to use APC squad in a low risk speedy sense.

The problem with Airborne INF is that you 'HOG' a chopper. On Muttrah this can work perfectly. On most other maps it doesn't.

Guys. It is absolutely fine by me either way. I am only stating that I have seen awesome effectively ran MECH INF squads who in my experience gave greate support and fire power. They in my humble opinion are far more effective and should thus get the claim to armour before the APC squad. I totally get why we can't tolerate Airmobile Squads but it seems to me that mechanized infantry should be the norm rather than the exception. Let's play a few rounds infantry and watch the APC guys get blown up trying to get a few kills. While we are desperately trying to take out tanks and anti-air to get a pick up from a great pilot. And often watch the APC dick around far away. It's not why they're there in my opinion. Play a fully coordinated MECH INF squad next and see how awesome it works. Again. My two cents...

Yeah but it is like that in reality. Personally I don't play MECH INF often. But I have seen some guys do it flawlessly. It is a lot better game experience than just a guy driving an AAV on Muttrah to score some kills and get blown up. I'm telling you that playing MECH INF can be lethally effectively with the right people and thus because they're using the asset correctly and effectively should have priority.

Also. In regard to the rules. I personally believe that APC should have a priority for moving squads from A to B and provide cover fire etc. Not the individual assault role they play at the moment. APC should always be support first. Again. My two cents.

Fair point Blud. But the the thing is that I actually don't bother to call for APC often. I depend on two or three awesome TRANS guys or my own humvees/jeeps/trucks/feet for transport. Personally I hardly ever play MECH INF but I have seen some guys do it as squad leaders and kick ass. Much more than a random guy in APC. Ergo my pledge to give MECH INF priority. From experience I just believe that it's a better team work experience. Again. My opinion. Not fact perse.

Yeah. But I don't agree with that. To me APC is transport first. Assault second. I think ergo, as most APC SQD's are simply using the vehicle for their firepower, MECH INF should get dibs. Always. I know it's not the rules it's just my opinion. I mean think about it. What's the bloody point of driving a 6-7 seater around for the only purpose of shooting enemies? Dips on MECH INF I say.

" APC/IFV/ARMOUR squads have a priority over mech inf squads regarding use of an asset, if the vehicle is not in use/unable to be manned then mech inf squads can use the asset. " To be honest I don't think that works in COOP. APC squads are generally basically only interested in utilising APC firepower to eliminate enemies. Try calling for a ride with an APC SQD, you almost never get a response. Guys I know some of you kick ass driving us around but mostly APC guys want to shoot stuff and not doing what an armoured PERSONEL carrier should do. Ergo I think that MECH INF should have priority always. At least they will have a SQD LDR that will coordinate, can change kits and can wreak havoc on the enemy. By no means am I challenging the rules. But I do think it's worth my two cents.

I remember that guy. Wasn't he banned already?

Cool. Very cool. I am definitively up for some of those events. Not anything with knifes or planes because, well, everyone that ever played with me knows that I suck at both. But when are we supposed to sign-up and where?

Hi all. As we're all in a little 'not-able-to-be-playing' mode at the moment I would like to bring up the following suggestions/questions. If that's okay? 1.) Maps: I think it's cool to play Muttrah or other maps that we play all the time, but I think it will be nicer if it were possible to have the server to put in a more challenging/tempting map (afterall it's the players that make the game not the map) when it reboots. Is that something that is possible? Also I would like to know if it is possible to ask an Admin to decide to go back to the map we were playing before we 'crashed'. Personally I think that this is much cooler than playing Muttrah three times in a row in less than 2 hours. Or you guys can make it a rule that when an Admin is online we can fastforward to the previous map. I don't know, it's just an idea. 2.) Enemy Assets: I think, and I had a bit of a hard time with this, all enemy assets should be owned by the team that conquers them. I.e. if you are playing and you capture a Shilka or BTR you should NOT get shit from the APC or AA team because it's not their stuff. What do you guys think? My opinion is that this is a great advantage for the entire team and we should always say 'keep it, it's yours, you earned it' . Your thoughts? 3.) Opfor: I love playing Opfor because it poses you with challenges that you're not used to when playing only COOP like me. May I suggest to do Opfor more often like; one week off or on or like every Thursday and Sunday? It would be cool. :) Foremost thank you for this server. I know everything is not working right now but damn! It's good to play here. It was five years ago and it is now~!!
