You do realize we can pause the video. That's not all you're using.

I never said that they were blueprint anywhere. it was the only image of an uplink i could find online lol. I have tutorial that i will put out tommorow. I just figured forum peeps are straight to the point. so i would put the short version :)

More people running rooftop swarms would have put a damper on your farming ability. Pretty risky doing what you did. But this is a pub match and they appeared focusdd on the ground game. You were cloned after all. Still, nice to see you pulled your mission off.

what uplinks are you using?

you do know once you swap out of the amarr logi suit you lose the bonus to all the uplinks you placed with that suit untill you place more right? ask shayz if you dont believe me

Ryme is right, victory first.

You could hack the outer objectives and choose the fastest drop uplink for the city, all the slow drops at a good distance just to have safe spawn if the fastest are corrupted.

One little hack and you won....

i think hes doing both. with out uplinks battles will become ungodly slow paced and more often then not 1 team will get back back to the mcc and be unable to push out for the remainder of the match.

OP dosnt think of the big picture in the slightest

also uplinks are vulnerable to Dropships, snipers(in the right place) orbitals PLC and MASS (pending splash damage can hit them) also they cannot have that many spawns per uplinkunless you are amarr logi but ocne you leave the amarr logi suit all the bonuses attributed to the uplinks are lost.. so yeah uplinks are fine as they are

Sometimes we lose fight because drop uplinks are only on the rooftops and the ennemy hold the ground. So blueberries respawn continously and fall in the middle of the ennemy team and died, all the fight.

So if your uplinks are none seconded by good drop uplinks on the ground, directly placed in the good securits way all around the city, you just accelerate the loss of clones. If you are a full team, your team mates know where to drop, but in pub, it's just giving way for massacre.

But I'm agree, there is nothing worst than beeing the only one to put dropuplinks, and you made a fantastic job. But when it's done, use your dropuplinks to attack. Hmg or scout hack, I don't know but help your team actively.

For a lonely action, attack the less defended objective to be sure of the success. And you are the better to do that because you see everyone with your dropship.

After seeing another time the fight:

Without your drop uplinks, your team take a big advantage at the mcc, and it was sensibly equal for the clones.

during the fight, your uplinks engage your team to respawn a lot in the city and nobody put other drop uplinks on the ground, and you lose for the clones with a big mcc advantage.

The only objectives hacked after the ennemy holded the city were the outside ones, so all actions in the city just costs clones with no results.

So yes, they could win without you... sorry...

The best you could do in this situation is stopping the loss of clones by taking back your first fit and return to the outside and spam drops around the 2 objectives.

Your firsts drop uplinks disappears in the city and you engage the team to take the outside objectives. No more clone lost, and a possibility to take back these 2 ones.

Hubert is pretty spot on.

I think you're actually asking the wrong question to an extent, at least the way you asked it the first time. Would the team do worse if you didn't put down some uplinks? Hard to say, as well all know it often really doesn't matter what you do in Dust, you are simply doomed to lose.

A better question is would the team have done better if you weren't "uplinking" (which I take to be your term for flying around doing nothing else but spamming uplinks). Taking your earlier statement about having way more SP than another poster, I have to assume you are at minimum a decent and experienced player. In which case I'd answer yes, usually it probably would be better for the team if one of the better and more experienced players actually hacked something besides a redline supply depot.

Either way, since you got cloned out, your teammates were obviously getting slaughtered, which is not an uncommon thing to happen when you herd blueberies like that, especially on that map where you cannot shoot into the city very effectively from most of the places your uplinks went. On the central building in particular the strategy of controlling that rooftop alone and dropping down tends to result in exactly this, a lot of deaths as individual players drop down and get shredded by all the people waiting for them in the corridors below.

That's the problem with your argument about "getting in quicker" dropping into the middle of the city might be quicker, but not in a good way. People spawning elsewhere have a chance to get organized or at least grouped up.
