Hello everyone!

Having played Dust 514 for quite some time now, I'd like to make an observation and offer up an invitation. I've noticed that through playing this beta, I have met some amazing players in a very unique community that just like in eve, makes this game that much more enjoyable. For that, I'd like to say thanks.

Because we as the beta testers have formed such a great community and really talented groups such a Betamax and a few mag clans have proven themselves time and again, I'd like to invite these talented groups and anyone who reads this to work hand in hand with SI. Seraphim Initiative has been preparing for Dust 514 since the first whispers of the game were announced. We are a 65 man strong corporation that focuses on not only having a great time playing the game, but also being extremely successful.

Whether you are looking to join SI, add your corporation to our alliance, or simply want some great guys to play with during our weekend romp on Dust, I encourage everyone to check us out. We hold weekly events in Dust and many other games and are always looking for qualified individuals who know how to communicate, adapt to different combat situations, and most importantly, have fun.

If you like what you see and are interested in getting to know us a bit more, you should head on over to a flag ship gaming community called Initiative Gaming where we are now located. IG has been crafted from the ground up to support clan/guild growth. It features an abundance of tools for organizations like Dust Merc Corps to utilize and effectively communicate with each other whether friend or foe. It features free VOIP access, chat, and a robust group and forum system.

See you on the battlefield!

Hey Barnes dear god your a pain in my ass on the ground still I love seeing you on the other team makes it alot of fun

@Jenza

The Vid thats in the works would cause the NDA to trigger self destruct squence in a PS3 and we are all to busy shooting stuff to attempt drawing dust cartoons in its place so I guess its coming SoonTM

Still cool to see you here Betamax

Tips hat

I'm here to kill lots & lots of players nothing more lol.... I love it when we are on enemy teams, you try to adapt more than most, it makes for an interesting match. Large ammounts of pleasure in fighting players that try new things, though fair warning I have top lvl AV grenades & I'm good at hitting dropships that are in range insta kill.lol try to pancake me at your own peril.

Honestly OG how can you say peace and long life with a maxed out shotgun in your hands and keep a straight face ?

Yea I noticed some AV nades heading skywards and it oftern ends in me looking like a fireball.
See ya in EU ambush bud :)

When party system is in ill fight 4 u lot, just for the fun of it & we will own. I don't do clans or corps or whatever they call it here but I will show my face for a few fights lol. Too much politics involved in clans in my experience, I usually just use "its" not so much a clan rather a grand proclamation of impending carnage to the enemy lol. OMG!! IT'S BARNES_ALMIGHTY RUN LIKE HELL.....

Likes to you for "most importantly, have fun".

If l wasnt a member of a clan dating back to the birth of Warhark, ld take you up on the offer...but l will indeed look for some fun games with you guys.

And good luck)

Cool post! Thanks for the introduction and the wealth of information that you provided. I am not in a corp yet, however I plan to get deeply involved with DUST 514 and will be scouting many Corps and their agendas. Your stated focus on teamplay and communication sounds very promising. Good luck with your venture.

i find it interesting that the recruitment video you use is just a iMovie template :P

Waiting on email back from yall... Sha Kharn, Y U Always on Dust? Turn your PS off yo!

Looks like the family is starting to pull together here. That is great to hear. I think of the pleasure of other Dusters we should allocate more time to be on the DUST VOIP. It i s better to ensure that we are continuously promoting our attitude and focus of bombs blasting and limb flying fun.

These guys are amazing,crazy(good kind of crazy),funny,hell of a professionals on the battlefield and everything else that's epic and that wont fit in 6000 letter limitation of this post.I never enjoyed playing any game as much as I enjoy playing Dust with them and I dont have enough words in my vocabulary to express the joy of being at their side on the battlefield.Damn I dont even mind to see defeat with them on my side.They made my day so many times that I dont even care for gaming as much as for those hilarious moments that we have on chat.So anyone thats looking for a great bunch of "good kind of crazy" people for great gaming experience that includes funny moments packed with huge dose of battlefield professionalism Seraphim Initative is the corp for you

8 of us right now chomping at the bit on coms . Why no server up

Would be awsome to meet ya

Edit: if ya lacking a mic atm then have a text chat with us on the website its down the bottom right and left.

I have joined SI few months ago and i have been hooked by its great community i even started playing EVE just to spend more time playing along side and have fun even though am exclusively console gamer.
Am grateful and thankful to SI and i would like others to join the same experience am having ^^

we are using voice chat client called mumble and yes we try as much as possible to be in the same team by droping in and out but sometimes we go against each others lol its sooo much fun. You can also chat on the website to organize grouping and tactics.

to sign up head to our website: www.initiativegaming.org
and join our corp Seraphim Initiative group and you are good to go

Hey, missing your big heavy fat ass!! Now it's just me running to catch up all the time. Been working on some great new tactics for heavies that i think you're gonna like on your return dude!

Joined the guys last week, and let me say We have been MELTING FACE -«.
Seriously though these guys are good and not uptight, fun and willing to chat about builds, mechanics, and whatever rot you want to talk about, all while shooting people in the face as a group!

More new recruits in today, nice one!

Actually don't add me I'm sticking with stb

Is the corp an organized one, yet still laid back?
I'm looking to join a cooperative corp for the beta in the next few weeks, but not one that takes things too serious.

@Sha Karn Clone I can't seem to find the website D: ( I may just be too stupid to realize where it is :3)

http://initiativegaming.org

then go find the groups and look for SI :)

Thank you! I sent a request, can't wait to play with you guys!

Should you guys not monitor your forums a bit more? I don't want to be a party pooper but there's a few breaches of the NDA there.

http://initiativegaming.org/forums/7/dust-514

Thanks for the heads up stone! I appreciate it. The posts have been removed off the the public Dust 514 forum section. See you around IG!

I would love to join a group like this Im going to need plenty of friends after the 21st.

How does the dust VOIP work at IG?

Ive never used any other coms then the built in ones mainly because im unfamiliar with the ps3

Hi mate, come visit the site www.initiativegaming.org and all will become clear for you but we have used a 3rd party comms called mumble on PC's to communicate up until now

Hopefully see you soon

Booker

My computer will be converted into a glorified walky talky?....

Just joined these guys and already been chatting on mumble with them. ( you can get mumble on iphone if like me you dont have a pc in your room) I can honestly say that these guys are as chilled out as any corp you'll find out there but at the same time its active, always something happening. And eventhough i havent played dust with them yet i can already tell its goin to be a blast from the chats on mumble.

Get signed up if your looking for some kickass fun with some crazy ass mofos!

Make sure this guy gets his fee ok? lol

cheers slider, see ya planetside!

Well lets just hope its up tonight. Right better get some sleep just in case all goes to plan with the servers.

Nevar I'm not dirting up my muscle memory.

Are you guys using in game coms now?

Definitely, Darky! I hope next time will not be as insane as today.

lol yeah
i'll make a post in our group to form a squad for tonight

Don't forget you can join our channel "pony" to group up with other SI members

...Why "pony"?

Also, I forgot to ask, but does your Corp already have a presence in EVE?

to sign up head to our website: www.initiativegaming.org
and join our corp Seraphim Initiative group and you are good to go

A few questions:

1) Can we have some history as to what your eve corp has been up to, Like where your based, who you have been fighting with, where your allegiances/future plans are?

2) What requirements will your alliance have for other corps to join?

3) What (not specifics, unless you want to ) path do you see your dust corp following?

4) Are you using in game voice comms or a 3rd party product and if so why?

5) Where do you see SI in 6-12 months time?

I'm sure I have more but these will do for now.

i'll forward your Qs to the leaders because some questions am not authorized to disclose, will be back with answers :)
but if you want to contact our leader directly, you can find his email in the first page of this thread

Thats fine - I can wait, or he can mail me ingame if he doesn't want the answers public, but I kinda made them general

** And a general note to all recruiters/recruitment threads out there (and in no way directed at SI in particular), more info less bravado would be welcome by people like myself who may be looking at your corp**

Hi Frank a replay from the boss:


1.) We are based in multiple locations ranging from high to null. We typically fight with who ever provides the most fun but we tend to do our own thing. Our allegiances are constantly up for debate as we only pick the side that offers the most fun.

2.) They really aren't any. We accept corps as long as their share our collective goal of having a good time playing this game, being courteous, and also being able to communicate well.


3.) We follow the tide of battle (cliche sorry) but it's the truth. Because it's still in beta, there really isn't a SET direction until launch because so much can change so quickly.


4.) We utilize both.. because we can.


5.) We see ourselves growing exponentially like we continue to do. We provide a really enjoyable experience to the people who join us and even to the corps and alliances that want to play with us.


If you have any more questions, please head over to the site we are located at, called Initiative Gaming:
http://initiativegaming.org


You can get in direct contact with us there, as well as some other corps that have joined this social network.


-silvertip83

Looking for team players with coms and we really aint after any more snipers so maybe squad up with us a little first

Well if you dont fancy squading up its up to you bud. At least all the other corps now have a better understanding of what your aiming for we sure didnt.

Keep safe and have fun

Do you have a public channel ingame? I may lurk there a bit if you do - I'm trying to avoid regestering on multiple corp sites just to ask a few questions :-)

yes we do have in-game channel search for Seraphim Initiative if you want to chat and have fun

I am mostly heavy but I logi as a secondary from the US and am very interested in joining a corp. I am also an EVE player who has been playing since '08

To be honest I heard about your corp after hearing that the ninja knifer wants to be part of this corp and I respect his dedication and would love to cover him with my giant red heavy suit. So please message me or let me know what needs to happen for me to join up

ps also my name is a happy coincidence
