Ok guys so we got our Asses kicked and no one person who played is to blame. We just where not ready and only had minutes notice but it was a good hard lesson and we will be the better for it in the future, better to learn it now rather than when it really mattered. It was just a different ball game compared to what we are use to on HP2. Life goes on my friends and we must live and learn so lets take it on the chin and take any lessons we can from it and then move on.
Any experience in life, bad or otherwise from which we learn something new is never a waste of time, only another obstacle we have overcome.
All is fair in love and war!
Those guys may well have been cheating, I don’t know but I do know that anything permitted within or not excluded by the rules is fair play, and they will exploit anything that gives them an edge over the other team if they can get away with it and do it without mercy. It is not really cheating and I understand that it is common practice.
They used tactics that where well tried and tested as well as teamwork and Ventrilo to communicate during the battle. On beach they used artillery strikes to kill and keep us pinned down at the beach spawn while they picked us off and targeted the engineer. They used two Lt’s and a sniper and because we where not prepared we had no tactics to counter with. All they needed to do was keep us pinned down on the beach to win. Han’s told me not too long ago that HP2 was the wrong server for match scrim tactics and boy was he right.
When the sides switched so did their tactics. They put a man over the wall to clear the bunker while they planted and to counter us ambushing their Engineer as he planted. Once they had blown the bunker door and got the flag they then posted a guy at the radio to target and eliminate anyone who spawned and keep the stairway clear so they had a clear run with the Doc’s once they got them. With a 30 second spawn time and only three players the round was over before we could even respawn.
We need match team players with experience as well as training and good tactics and for that we need a server or at least access to one. We need to watch those pings too, if we are playing on a U.S hosted server then we should only use U.S based players. We also need to get Ventrilo so we can communicate during a scrim and rehearse our team tactics by numbers; something like the set plays they use in soccer or football.
