But seriously, I ordered a pizza at the beginning of the PUG and didn't get it until near the end of the PUG (over 2 hours late). When I called, they said they "got hit by the internet". I feel like that about sums up Pizza Hut.

 Maybe the delivery guy's car / bike got stolen... hue hue hue.

Was a nice guy - we really need a second commander though. Basically, the team that had Boxes won.

No unfortunately something which happens during a lot of PUG's. He is either broadcasting (Italian?) recipes cause his mic is open while a women talks to him, or in the background  shouting stuff like. "Quick, ref!" , "The Bridge now...." or "O Noo the Powerplant" while you don't know if it's that he needs help attacking or defending. When asked there is never a response....  I can only guess about the reason(s)....

Question to all of PUG players: Should we have some Custom Maps back on the PUG server?

Dying to see some more Tunnels or Reservoir gameplay. For both my enjoyment and gameplay analysis :P 

Tunnel was probably not part of the PUG rotation since last update :/

Is it even in the CT rotation since the latest update? Haven't played a lot the past 2 weeks but I didn't see it anytime since the latest patch.

Yes it is, it was played yesterday.

The map wasn't in the rotation, due to it not being part of the default rotation.

Once someone pointed it out, I added it back.

Default rotation from the file:

"CNC-Field","CNC-Walls_Flying","CNC-GoldRush","CNC-Whiteout","CNC-Islands","CNC-LakeSide","CNC-Mesa","CNC-Volcano","CNC-Xmountain", "CNC-Canyon", "CNC-Complex", "CNC-Under"

Some pre-pug fun :)

So a harvester is basically a sheep, if it is on its side it can't get up:

And this is some fine vehicle art, better then the Mona Lisa:

I precisely remember saying "I think you can infiltrate our ref via backdoor with only activating one mine" at the start of the game.

Show this to Machete please so he doesn't use this mining technique ;)

This pug was really unenjoyable for me. Im not blaming anyone. I had problems with discord :(. Every so often i would get disconnected then reconnected and then i couldnt hear anyone talk. So it was very hard for me to coordinate with anyone. Also my internet cut out and i missed the last match. RIP

In-bold parts are probably related? Before cutting out having disconnect issues, yet your post reads as if Discord was partly to blame anyway when it wasn't it was just your mischievous connection. :( :cry:

Discord seemed to be having issues that day actually, like with people not being able to use the official discord.

People kept getting greyed out text all day starting on Friday... looks like their servers are under heavy load.

yes indeed. you opened the door, started disarming mines and moved 1 step closer. 1 step too close. The GT couldnt hit you and any GDI would haave seen you if they looked over there. So no need to snuggle against the WF wall.

just a comment ;)

Did they vote Mesa knowing they were gonna be GDI? xD 

Actually it was decided to not vote and we got Mesa served. Mesa sucks if you ask me cause it's (at least in a PUG) always super predicable and boring. It even sucked harder cause 'we' were GDI... 

Lesson for the future: vote :)

if noone votes, the first map of the possible choices gets picked by default.

Saving GDI harv & destroying the Nod harvy + focusing on the short route is (usually) the only way to win Mesa as GDI (during a PUG).

your rocket rush was almost successfull, but even then - some of you gained a lot of ponts -> cash, GDI failed to keep control of the short route. but I guess most of GDI were too frustrated at this time due to the Mesa pick :(

Exactly what happened @DarkSn4ke...

Personally I did what was asked (don't vote) but for me just the loading screen of the map made my mood got killed quicker than Nod took down our base. 

BTW: I guess I won't be able to join the next PUG because of a photoshoot.

Not enough people use the bridge to flank on Mesa.

It's so far away and there's nowhere to go if you have to retreat

Our choice at that point was:

- Tunnels: already played it that evening, so no

- Mesa, Volcano and Whiteout: all Nod maps - Whiteout and Volcano also sniper-heavy and we were at a disadvantage here

-XMountain: best for GDI here, but to be fair it's a really bad map and I didn't feel for another vehicle slugfest

So I just told people not to vote to see what happens, althought I expected Mesa to win in that case. Fair enough, we almost took out the ref with the very nice rocket rush.

what? o.O

it's a good map. both teams can easily defend their harvy (Nod got a slight advantage, due to close strip spawn). the only reason why Xmountain can be a "bad" map (during a PUG): 1 team manages to trap the other team inside their base at once.... ok, then it's boring (usually). Especially if the sieging team has the Sniper advantage.

But if both teams push out vehicles & field rep + Support Units (Patch / Sydney / Mob & LCG / Raver / Doza) and fight for the field it's super cool :) this depends - ofc - on the PUGs tanker balance. but the last PUGs were very balanced in this regard.

PUG GDI teams have proven to be capable winning both maps. just focus on the whiteout-hill only. for Volcano: just play standard & safe. kill harvy (defend GDI harvis mandatory) get Gunners, 1 APC & MRLS + 3 hotties for the first arty wave + push meds, meds until someone can buy a mammoth (preferably Veteran++). if GDI manages to hold Nod back, they have good chances to win (Nod side of the Cave is usually more cramped imo), if meds & gunner focus one vehicle at a time to trigger the techies, they can switch & kill the other vehicles instead.

again: tanker balance given + 1-2 good infantry / support player / team. or in general: balanced teams.

Maybe add in a functionality for random map vote? Seems like that would be a pretty low effort thing to put in.
