commanding

[commando-101]

commanded last night for the first time for a while.

map was Jabal, we were US & the mec had us on the back foot for the first half of the game but we pulled it back!

Forgot how satisfying it is to command - especially when the non T&T squads do what they told because they know there is an admin in charge ready to kick them if they dont't!:D

We had a T&T squad led by hybridx & another squad led by an igi member - can't remember his name.

Basically had an awesome round - even if I did forget about the JDAM until the last ten tickets when Hybridx managed to call it in as a finale!!

i always forget about the jdam!

I downloaded the battlerecorder file of that last night - just to watch the jdam at the end hit bridge.

I thought it was a bit out of order for hanniz to hover over bridge waiting for the jdam to hit, just to get the best view !!!!!!!!! you could have picked us up and let us have a look !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

when was this? i remember the igi squads and a tac squad, sure you werent MEC or were you on both teams.i thought mec kicked ass:confused:

[commando-101]

last night chuckle around 11pm GMT? not sure.

The mec did kick ass to begin with & held west beach for a long time to stop our advance.

IMO the best games are ones like these with a hard fought battle rather than a push over!

that jdam hit on 1 ticket left.... it was possibly the most perfect way to end the round :)

[wardlemjw]

yeah - it was brilliant timing, its a shame everyone on our team didnt know it was coming so they could all watch !

commanding in pr can be useful for real life for example its easier to comand than sl when eating =P

[wardlemjw]

lol

Commanding when your side works well is wonderful and one of the most enjoyable things in PR.

When you're side is full of morons, it's the opposite.

[wardlemjw]

I suspect its full of people who dont listen more than it is people who do as they are told

I had a good few rounds on the server last night too, my inf squad worked well with frosty from iGi, half the time we didn't even have a commander tho lol :P

I love commanding, at least when it works and you get some compliance with the squads. I have a good system with communicating with squads.


call them first and wait for a reply just like in real military coms. Sometimes if you just blurt it out you are talking over their in squad members.



-highlight individual squad- use VOIP
COM "Squad 3 this is command" or actual name of squad leader

wait ...

SL: "Go ahead command"

COM: -Give order-

Drives me nuts when a commander is broadcasting everything to everyone all the time.

Never been big on commanding. Alot of responsibility. Have we got a post anywhere with abit of a tutorial on how to command in PR. Probs be worth reading.
