    Gripe at Aussies!!!

    Strewth, I used to have a ball playing on the aussie, and even kiwi servers! not anymore though. One pure and simple reason. NO TEAMWORK!

    Now look, i know i used to b!tch about this back when the game first began, but lately it seems as though all players have gone back into their bad old habits.

    I'll lead you through a typical game for me.

    1: check all squads, if there is one that seems to have players sticking together, then i'll look at their kits. I'll choose one that seems to have a competent leader, spawn on him, and try have a chat to em. I see that the SL has his knife out and is dolphin diving the ENTIRE way along the road, the medic and support man are having fun with each other, medic shoots support once, reloads, heals the support guy who proceeds to give him ammo for the 'clip' he just used up. Spec Ops is putting his c4 on any of 'his' vehicles and blowing them to smithereens, occupants and all.

    2: leave squad, try the others. All similar stories, except for the squads that just dont stick together, and the ones with the SL standing around staring at the sky waiting for a jet to appear so he can crash it into a mountainside whilst attempting to blast a hole into the earth to commence tunnelling operations under the enemy flags, and give the enemy a 1-more-ticket advantage.

    3: create my own, name it teamwork, VOIP, or if i have a specific objective in mind, ANTI UAV or DEFENCE or something like that. Invite several people, some join, then run along and do their own thing!!!! i try reason with them, it doesnt work, i try kicking them from the squad, they come back, taking up a slot that could be much better used.

    But i say COULD, because noone else in the server seems to have a stone motherless clue of what teamwork means!


    Fair dinkum fellas, lift your game!!!!!

      First off
      :rofl:
      That was an amusing read.

      I find it odd tho. I tend to play with Auzzies fairly often and haven't found this to be the case. Most of them have been good squadmates and good squadleaders.

      Then again, the only way I can tell if they're an Auzzie is if they use their mics.
      Thus, my observation is scewed because if they're using a mic, they're already half way there to being a good teammate.

      Moral of the story?
      Use yer damn mics people!

            I mostly play on TG servers, but every now and then you can find me on a pub Aussie server (Internode / GA) at night leading a squad called "TG VOIP".

            Use Game Monitor and search for "Bommando". We usually have a blast.

              I sometimes jump on GA servers, Ill usually look for a squad marked VOIP or Teamwork. If not, I havent found it too hard to inspire some to join a new squad and use teamwork. I spose it depends on what time you are playing as to how much support you get. I have noticed a lack of support when there are mainly "kids" on.

                Play XTRA8 Wake only and it is 99% fantastic. Usually goes down to the wire. I always lead a VOIP squad with fantastic teamwork.

                CHeck it out.

                  I have found the exact opposite mate. When I play on GA there is always a good squad to play with and everyone is on mics and they are all sticking together. Though I don't tend to play on Aussie servers much because we have our own ranked server, but when I want some low ping goodness I usually jump on a GA server. Don't get me wrong there are plenty of tards, campers etc but I never have a problem finding a good squad who are using teamwork.

                  If you are sick of Aussie servers then give ours a try Raging Rebels Ranked 1.12, don't expect a low ping though because its based in the US but there is no lag and the game plays smooth. I ping around 196-200ms so its no 15ms ping which I get on a GA server. There are plenty of Aussie's who play on it, including myself, the Mrs and plenty of other Aussie's from our clan. Its a tard free zone & has good teamwork.

                    Jump on the iconz servers, look for the clan members and join their squads, we can normally get some really good teamwork going. All have voip as well. :)

                    Note: They are based in NZ.

                      Try Iconz servers also, they are far better than Xtra for NZ IMO, most of the NZ clanners seem to go for Iconz first.

                        Bad day huh ?

                        Just remember that school's out here in OZ and Summer holidays have hit.

                        The tardism factor on the pub servers in Australia rates 8.5 chainsaws on my psycho meter when both these events happen. I usually just leave the server and find one that does have a large proportion of squads, there's plenty to choose from.
