Ok, maybe I am mistaken about this. It's just the overall feeling that we had no control of what happened until the last round, not blaming anyone ofc. I don't get what you are trying to say here Kenz.. First of all it isn't 'my' team, second: I didn't play a PUG for a month, third: it almost always works better if someone takes the lead with the team. I got the idea that a team with B0NG in it usually wins a lot more cause they follow his lead, but can't proof this cause I don't have any data. But I noticed the same behavious once Yosh called out a plan, which everybody sticked too, on the last map. As said a million times: I don't care what my role is in the PUG. I once mined / defend the whole PUG for the teams sake, but I care if the PUG feels just as random as a normal pub where it's total chaos... And yeah, I got the feeling that I lose more often than win, no matter if it's in a PUB or PUG. Maybe statistics also prove this? Ah they do:

Yeah how many maps are you going to do Thommy? I think the community has more to gain from a few finished ones (even though you can still do small tweaks to them every now and than). Ofc. the decision is all yours...

I understand your point, but this wasn't the case. Even if these attacks would have failed it would have felt more like teamwork, cause there was actually a plan and everybody sticked to it. How many coordinated rushes did our enemy do? Dozens... How many times did we move in with more than 4 of the same units / vehicles? I think we can count the attacks which involved more than 5 people on one hand and that's a bit ashame...

Why not create a stealth apache than

Sorry 'we lost' had to be they lost, changed that now...

I think only the last game 'our' team started to work together. The first 3 rounds there was almost no teamwork. GrassyKnoll was a sad loss, cause we decided to defend the turret at all costs in order to not be overrun by SBH's. As soon as the FIRST attack happened the turret went down without anyone taking care of it, while this was 'our main' plan. Goldrush: no clue what happened here, we didn't organize any attack. I know that at one point we 'organized' a flamerush and as soon as we left, I watched behind me and I was alone. Most of us didn't know the map since the changes and we were afraid Bananas would use his knowledge of the map to change the outcome, which he did. Also we agreed to have someone guarding the bridge at all times, but nobody did. Tomb: me and Freak(not sure, but I guess?) Managed to get to the ref early in the game and damaged it a bit, but not enough. Later Tony and I went with stanks from the back of the base to theirs, only to see a big group of meds leaving GDI's base. We spotted them before they were even close to our base, again nobody responded till they were inside our base and killing it. This game was the worst, cause every time someone called for help people tended to ignore it above anything else.... Complex: we won by points, but also by getting lucky a bit. AFK's all game, a player down in numbers, someone Ioning the strip but not being on TS and not responding... Other players not on TS. A few moments where people asked for help cause they were damaging a building (Kenz and Machette had meds at the ref) and nobody responded... We had so many chances, but managed to get one planned rush (with mammies) going at the end of the game. This was the only time I'dd see more than 5 people working together. But during the rush the first mammy decided to drive backwards, so we lost all mammies cause they got r*ped by arties... Canyon: finally some good teamwork, maybe also cause some people left...? Orders:"If you spawn here (ref) you defend the tunnels. If you start at the bar / wf you go for their harv + silo." People listened and, surprise, coordination works... Later on the plan was meds + repairs which also everybody did. Really the first time it felt like we were playing a PUG instead of a pub. Meds got repaired well, someone brought a beacon in and the person got cover well, than the beacon received the same coverage and in minutes they lost. The early APC rush also helped ofc!

Hope the ladders won't launch you like in the first versions of Xmountain....

Sad, but if you think you can do it better, than you probably should!

Hope we can test it soon for server perfomance, but that's all I am gonna say about it, don't want to stress anyone

Which they now post in one huge list in one topic, instead of separate topics....

Guess the rounds I played were: a) too quick to catch it b) too busy to actually stand at the place where it happens... Will look for it next time!

Indeed, last few times I played the map the enemy team was expecting us and Tomb lasted an hour

Lekkerrrr hoor!

Downloading (again, just downloaded the other older one). GJ!

Yeah what happened to the meteor Ruud?

I once had the idea that I bumped into a person which couldn't aim, cause I didn't get any damage, but this could explain it... I really didn't pay attention to it, cause I was too busy to place C4 and since I can't aim myself... I tried to evade them. I think we can test this easily?

Wow! Just wow!

Guess it's a good idea to create seperate topics for seperate problems. This way they can be fixed easier....

I think Ruud just implemented it as a cool feature, without any purpose.

Sorry Cudaker, I get you didn't play the map... The ship is really, really, really BIG and you can't miss it. It's just a 'landscape' in which you can play and there is no objective, it's just part of the map. I think you missed the fact that we went a bit cynical (is that even proper English) in this topic. Nevertheless, if there would be an objective than a message like you mentioned would be really handy!

Hope it has nothing to do with my presence, I also visited Chernobyl in 1986.... No serious, hope you can get it to work. I remember you saying in game that you where planning to play this with a few friends, in this case you can always use Hamachi... But it would be better if anyone could join!

You need to capture the War Factory and then you can buy the ship Oh shit... I kicked my whole team which was repairing the enemy MCT there... Now I get why they hate me (among other reasons), what have I done!

Ì managed to join, ping 128, crashed a minute later. Also I would be carefull with this configuration. Imagine if you get DDOSED on your homenetwork and are not able to connect to internet for a longer time...

That escalated quickly.... Maps are smaller indeed, look at Crashsite. I absolutly HATE the ship cause its so small that I am still trying to find it, can someone please point me....

Didn't check the log, but did you consider that you are in a private network (at least that is what I get from your post). So your firewall might be open on the computer, but your PC might still be protected by the router / mode. Try to give your PC a static IP and add it to the DMZ.
