0-4 YEAH IT WAS CLOSE ALRIGHT

Was fun but you should choose better maps next time...

-Sbeneh INF: not balanced + bad performance
-Arctic Lion: I know that it will be removed but it's the worst map in PR by far
- Fools LRG: nice map if not the last one because it takes too long

But all in all good & fast admins

Anyone got a screenshot of the scores from Arctic Lion?

You guys have really the potential to "be the next TG". They're so many 3dac and NEW guys that are playing that you could easily get like a few squads led by them. 3 squads on either team lead by 3dac or NEW instead of one 3dac squad and one NEW on each (+maybe one MERK) could do wonders to teamwork play in PR.

Think about it. And please, do set maplist more, not just on events.

EDIT: I meant it more as a call, for your potential. As a compliment

While you are right and open clansquads in general are a good thing, we wont force people to. If they dont want to, thats their bussines, because its their "happytime" playing PR and they should do it the way they want.

Nonetheless, making squads for pubbies is always appreciated and there are some regulars on our server who do this quite often.

We don't aim to be the next TG; that server had indeed good teamplay, but also had it flaws we do not agree with and think we are doing better. We have our own style, and for the most [NEW] Joint Operations Events it works pretty well already.

Though, the squad idea of having non full 8x clan member squads is true and had been discussed lately.
I agree that this has to be changed, but as ranzpirat said some peeps cant be forced to.
Working on it.

You forgot [KSK], backbone of every team! Maybe we could spread out more but then again, we want to play together as much as we can.
I actually agree with more fixed maplists, votes mostly end up with the same maps and layouts being played.

cheers,
Curry.

P.S.: Fools Road on Thursday was the best game since some months for me. Balanced, long and challenging. GG!

How's Shijia going? Almost only clan-players... Should be quite professional level round?

sweedensniiperr · Post by **sweedensniiperr** » 2015-02-03 22:18

gr8 server guys. mostly competent Admins that always seek the diplomatic way to fix an issue

Truly saddening to see NEWs currenet stagnation. I have experienced a lowering in the standard of gameplay aswell as balancing. Right now I dont see any difference between NEW or PRTA. Balancing teams shouldnt be a problem if everyone is a good sportsman and accepts a challange. Not steam rolling people and stacking teams. Sure, people like to play with their mates but keep in mind that groups themselfs can switch sides. Its just sad to see such a good server stagnate. I dont know the reason why or I would already have pointed that out. You know I like you guys but the server has gone to shit lately

What maps did you see this? After the muttrah steamroll most of the top squad from mec joined the other team to try and balance it out. TBH its better than a full on scramble and should be the first option, like it was.

I truly dont know where this is coming from and I feel kinda offended by your post. I played ALL rounds from muttrah on yesterday with you and EVERY round until Xiangshan was ending with a ticket difference <100. KD's were not more apart then 30.

We responded to every report about wasting, derping, no-mic etc. on BOTH sides.

People were crying in Allchat about balance and stacking anyhow and I have NO idea on what train they were riding.

I dont know what heppened on Xiangshan (maybe to many people left on the wrong side) but yeah, the round was shit. I dont know how that is representative for more than this one round though.

If you have things to criticize on which you can put a name on we will happily receive it and try to do our best to work around it. You guys are highly respected and trusted in our ranks, so we will take this stuff serious! But simply calling something shit wont help the issue.

Its not about the order on the server. You guys are doing a great job and I respect you for keeping the server up and running and I will continue to play and seed it ofc. You handle all reports well and all that good stuff but at the end of the day its about people stacking teams. I just feel like lately, theres been alot of stacking and steamrolling. Xiangshan was 1-50 20 minutes into the game. No fobs no communication on the team I was on. I didnt stay for the whole game, actually quit in the middle of a game, which I never do. Really. But it might have ended in <100 tickets but still doesnt change the point that many people are stacking teams knowing it will be unbalanced. Now its nothing against NEW or any other clan because everyone is doing it. In MeRk we try and pull each others ear whenever we notice shit like that and I think its about time the rest of the community do the same. As I said before to many people, We are not a big community. Most of us know each other in some manner and are good players. So good sportsmanship is the least to be expected.

What I am asking for on NEW though is since the EU community mostly plays on this server and is the final frontier where we can expect high level gameplay on week days, I just ask for your support and understanding in what I believe to be the best thing for the community. To actually enjoy challenging games where its evenly balanced between sides.

This is a legit point and you are absolutely right on this. We try to get Squads to switch and ask Clans as well, but this is some of the toughest stuff to get going good as an admin team, in my opinion.

I forwarded this reminder about stacking to our internal forums in case not every admin is checking on this thread (like they should) and we hope that we get this stuff more sorted!

I think that the locked squad/CLAN ONLY squads is more hurting to the server honestly. the <4 man locked squad rule should be increased imo.

Take a look this image:

APC-squad, even though this was INF layout, SL there was doing trans, the other 2 fuck i don't know
LOCKED CLAN SQUAD
LOCKED PRT SQUAD - but too be fair with 8 people so it doesn't really matter, but it has happend some times where you have 2 tournament squads in the same team both locked at 5 people. I understand that you wanna train, but it is also a public server, besidese it is great propaganda.
LOCKED CLAN SQUAD AT 4 PEOPLE
SPEC OPS SQUAD
LOCKED SQUAD AT 4 PEOPLE
MORTARS - imo fine but still
ME, atm trying to do something useful and building fobs
CLAN SQUAD - (german clan) although open which is good

also 25minutes in and 6 people unassigned, i didn't take a picture of the other team, but i'm guessing it was full of 3dac/NEW

This was last week's teamwork night. Hopefully I can have a better time tonight.

EDIT: to add: of course i can ask some clans if i may play with them and often than they agree. but look at it from a broader perspective, maybe a semi-new don't know what the hell is going on.

And about the teamstacking: you can't really do anything about once the round going on, that would be kind of stupid. And maybe next round a clan switches, while another clan from that same team completely leaves, and the teams are stacked again, only in favour of the other team this time.

The teamwork on the server is great mainly because of the clans playing, but I have to agree with the stacking which makes it also hard for pubbers to get in. And yes you have a lot of pubbers who just don't want to be part of a clan but are seriously good players and well known. Maybe Alex is a good example of that.

Well i dont know how to fix this really. You want us to become an english clan?

Yes we are a german clan that speaks german surprisingly, but when we have english speaking people joining the squad we try to keep everything in english as best as we can. We dont speak native english though.

Regarding locked squads, that happens at some point when you have special people joining your squad that just do want they feel like. Still when you see a locked squad just ask and we'll open for sure.
Only because of a KSK in squad name does not mean you are not allowed to join, its more of a hint that we try to keep it a bit more serious and will boot everyone without disciplne. (do not confuse this with milsim, no milsim here)
Most of the time we are just three clan people and fill the rest with pubbies.

Teamstacking happens mostly because one of the bigger clans join the server slowly. You dont notice it right away, but once the round finishes and the next is about to begin you suddenly notice 20 clan guys + friends crushing the server. They dont do this intetionally and will balance on next round start.
