Do we have enough during our peak times?

We'd have to rally the inactives. The question in my mind is, should we reach out to those inactives now or should we wait until we can actually show them a proper Raid?

I (for one) would be uncomfortable calling up an old friend to "Raid" with us, knowing that our "Raid" will be nothing more or less than a PC Attack. And a pointless one at that, as we've no intent or desire to keep what we take. But say, on the other hand, we reached out to that old friend and told him to hop onto Dust anytime and hit up NN to get in on an actual Raid.

In my mind, "hop on whenever and check out what we're up to" is a much more comfortable pitch than "if it fits your schedule, please mark your calendar for 'nintendo time with friends' from 04:00 to 05:30 tomorrow.".

Furthermore ... Lol

Say that friend hopped onto Dust (at his leisure) to find that his old buddies had become proper pirates engaged in noblest of bastards' cause. Terrorize the "L33T"! Pillage their peaceful farmlands! Burn their Blue Donuts! ... that guy, I suspect, would be more likely to stick around and play more Dust than the guy who we rang up to run a regular, laggy ol' PC with us.

That begs the question of who we call in to raid with us when our numbers are low. I think if we wait until true raiding comes in, or until we just manage to have enough people online then we will just sit and twiddle our thumbs forever. Of course, that conversation is probably best suited in the basement. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.

I was just wondering which of the two would be made Raid Captains Whoever has the most PC experience as an FC. Stress on the FC part. I may have lots of PC experience, but I can't FC very well. I know the general meta and can easily build a team, but I can't micromanage well. I'd just give squads objectives and direct them with goals. Like "Squad 1, take B." or "Squad 2, I need links in acid pit". Good FC's are hard to find Currently listening to: Tsukihime OST Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_;

Want to FC a Raid? Have enough guys online? Poke a bastard with permissions, assemble your motley crew and on demand. We've taken a casual, unscheduled and leaderless approach to all other things; mechanics permitting, I'd like to think we'd take the same approach to end-game play. For better or worse :-) Would love to eventually see a couple pirate crews operating independently in each region. What do you guys have envisioned? What would you like to see? I love the dream. Sadly it won't work due to PC battle mechanics and no real raid functionality yet. You have to wait one to two days after the attack to do the PC. That said, if you need an extra hand I'll pitch in if I'm on. Overlord of Broman
mollerz 6	Posted - 2015.07.13 05:47:00 - [40235] - Quote I'd just add to the bastard mantra a bit- - Can't be bothered about KD. That's for pro scouts. Nothing wrong with that, tho. - Always check the leaderboard for the heavy hitter of the other team. Or go for known heavy hitters from jump. That is your "prey" Go kill them. - Always pride yourself on the first hack of the entire match. - Have a list of the top ten leaderboard holders. Make it a mission to kill them anytime they show up. - Thale kill!? KILL IT. - Jihad jeep until tankers give up or go broke. - share scout secrets with scouts. FU shout out to the ***** who spilled on sprint charge with knives cause he's an attention carebear *. We didn't even abuse it. but he had to just *** use it as a way to glory himself in care bear stare. - Die to kill prey. die again. and again. kill kill kill - drink monk's red jar. no sorry you can't have any anyway. sorry sucka. no not sorry sucka. - if you can pick on prey.. make it a long con. kill that same * sniper with knives. over. and over and over over and then over again. laugh at his mails. - Or get cool with them. Being a basard isn't ALWAYS about being a bastard. sometimes it's about being cooler than just being a **. that's harder mode sometimes. - like hard mode. take what you like about here and spread it. There are more bastards out there to find.

I believe we can do better than this, and I'm of the opinion that we should. It's accurate. Listen, the thought of "Raiding" with MLT suits only works if you can ACTUALLY pull off the ISK difference. If you're good enough to stomp a team in PRO gear with nothing but MLT suits, you wouldn't need to raid, you would actually hold land. The power difference between tiers is too great to make raiding profitable. You want ISK in PC? Be prepared to make a meat grinder of proto suits, its the only way to do so. Highest payout I've had in PC was around 4 mil I think..... We turned city into a literal meat grinder. Burned through about 250 clones or so. They didn't show up for the next fight.

Ghost Kaisar Fatal Absolution Negative-Feedback 11	Posted - 2015.07.13 15:17:00 - [40260] - Quote Oh, side note: My PC just died. Damn PSU suffered a main supply short. Hopefully the rest of the components are okay. Thing wasn't even a month old ;_; Without my PC, and without a PS4 (Sold it for PC), I'll be on Dust for a bit. Lag and FPS make me whine like crazy, but I still love the game and people. Current favorite fits: Mk.0 Commando: 2x Shields, 1x Energizer, 1x Regulator, 1x Kincat. Boundless and ACR. I'm in love with the extra slot. Mk.0 Assault: I have a shield and armor version. The PG slots to highs makes me able to run a 2x Ferro and 2x Rep suit with Damage mods. Shield suit is my standard fare. Legacy Skin for the Armor, Brutor skin for the Shield Mk.0 Scout: 2x Shields, 1x PG, 2x Damp, 1x Speed, Six Kin SMG, NK, Stable Uplinks, Pro Cloak. My old SMG fit is back with the PG move again. Mk.0 Heavy: 2x Shields, 1x Energizer, 1x Regulator, 1x Kincat. Boundless HMG, M209 Assault SMG. Fluxes. Once again, nobody expects the shield tanked speed heavy. I remember playing with an armor heavy, laughing as he yelled for reps. "I DON'T NEED NO STINKING LOGI's" as used my speed and regen to its fullest Got armor and shield based suits for every proto suit except my scouts, which are tailored for roles rather than tank. Like "CQC" or "Links". Overall, I really like the GAMEPLAY changes, but am still p*ssed about the lack of OPTIMAZTION changes. FFS, fix your terrain and FPS CCP.
