CnC Mode Event, Sunday Aug 8, 7pm Eastern

[ender[fdn]]

Event: CnC Mode Night
Server: fatalbitz AAS/CNC Server
Date: Sunday, August 8th, 7pm Eastern

CnC mode doesn't get the love it deserves, so we're having a CnC mode night on our server. Like tactics? Tired of playing flag tag? Want a new challenge? Just looking to mix it up a little? Stop by and try out CnC mode. We'll be playing the following maps:

Kashan Desert CnC 64 (choppers)
Silent Eagle CnC 64
Yamalia CnC 64 (it's epic to try to hide/find FoBs on this map)
Kashan Desert CnC 32 (jets)

A little recap on CnC mode for people who aren't familiar with it:

- Each team must build 1 FoB
- Each team must hunt the other team's FoB
- If/when your team's FoB is destroyed, your team will suffer a ticket bleed
- Ticket bleed speed is affected by how close the other team places their FoB to the center of the map

It's a great gameplay mode, with choppers flying search patterns, infantry units trying desperately to break through defensive points chosen by the other team (rather than by a random number generator) and great strategy as each team decides how much risk to take with their FoB placement.

So, if you're looking for something a little different, join us this Sunday, August 8th at 7pm Eastern on fatalbitz AAS/CNC Server for a CnC mode theme night!

Silent Eagle CnC is still bugged, no spawn points on US airport, no choppers, no command point for the US.
Edit: Still fun to play! ;]

Isn't the events forum moderated? How do I get this posted in there?

I feel like in CnC mode the Kashans might be reversed, at least, that's how it's seemed given our rotation.

We were playing silent eagle the other night, seemed to be ok.

Thanks for the replies/suggestions, guys.

Great initiative, CnC is so underplayed, whilst it's an awesome gamemode .

Mumble(2 channels, no 1 channel n00bery)?

Mumble(2 channels, no 1 channel n00bery)?

Not sure what you're asking for here. We don't run a public mumble server and our clan doesn't use the PR mumble server. We do have in-game voip enabled. I don't know what's involved with getting a channel set up on the PR mumble server, if anyone knows about that and would like to help out, please let me know.

I also created a Facebook event and posted on the Project Reality wall:

Please let me know if it's not letting other people see the event or something dumb.

As far as I know you can ask for a server channel in the official PR mumble server. Just bother the devs(Can't remember who exactly deals with mumble).

If you want people to show up you should really use mumble(2 channel system). It improves gameplay substantially and affords players a plethora of new options. If you can't get a mumble channel by Sunday I'm sure there's some barren channels players may use unofficially(Project Mumble Community is dead, I think).

Np, you can use it any time.

I really hope we get a good crowd for this. I don't ever see the top servers playing CnC mode. Does anyone really play it? It's quickly becoming my preferred game mode and I'd like to see a solid group who like seeing these maps in a server rotation. Hope to see a full server on Sunday.

I have to say CnC has got to be the most underappreciated game mode judging by how little it gets played. If you're a fan of it or have never played it now is a great time to hop on and play a few rounds with us. We're all more than willing to give you a crash course in how its designed as well as a few of our strategies. For example when you find the enemies FoB we often burn it down but leave the mound there and have our guys defend it. That way the enemy has to come back and completely destroy their old fob before placing a new one, causing them bleed that much longer. Also we plan to keep the teams even and fair for a more enjoyable game, in other words we won't be clan stacking unless there's another equally matched clan to stack against.

Hey guys, I tried getting this post moved to the event forums, but I haven't heard anything back yet.

[ender[fdn]]

Just a bump and a reminder that this event is happening tomorrow night, starting at 7pm eastern.

Hoping to see people come out and enjoy a slightly different PR experience than they're used to!

[Hawkeye92]

I will do my best to be there.

[apollo[fdn]]

We hope to see a good number of you on our server tonight. Hopefully we can get enough to get over the 20 player "hump" then draw a full crowd. See you all tonight.

So, how did it go?

[=]H[=TangFiend]

I am so bummed I didn't hear about this.

How did the event end up going?

I still have never actually played a full round of CnC mode in pr always just the insurg/AAS and I have been playing for a few years now.

Hopefully was successful and can do it again.
