you can play in games with 4 people and your partner will listen to you (unless he's a noob). If you try to get someone to go raid a base with you when there are like, 32 players, chances are, they wont listen to what you say. However, I hav been in a few (very few) games where someone will get a heli or apc and take 5 players into the enemy base. If you ever want to win a game, you should keep in contact with your team and organize large attacks. while keeping 1 person in each structure to repair the buildin at all times.

being an mvp sometimes will influence people to listen but there are some pretty arrogant people out there who dont listen to a word you say.

people are rambos, its hard to get real teamwork in a game because they want to do thier own things.

I hate in when You get ignored.

I'm in a med tank facing two Artillery peices. They are at one end of the Street under bridge, I am at the other. Then I see a Buggy


Me: nod Buggy Incomming
Me: Their going after the War Fac!!
Gdi Guy: Shut up Noob, the AGT will take it out
Me: Dont bet on it!

I made for the War Fac...

<GDI War factory destroyed>

you are right, its really hard to get teamwork, and to your experiences with the factory... ive made some like that too, but in my case it was the Power Plant (nuke) and the Refiney (C4)

i can only say this about that: ouch, that hurts!

BLOOD FOR THE BLOODGOD!!

It's near impossible to get people to listen Just last night: City_flying map and the red side (our) were owning GDI. I was loaded, beaconed up and ready to trot, and kept asking for a ride to the nearest intact building...vehicle limit was reached see. I tried camping in the PT screen to wait for my turn to buy, but somehow it went from "building" to "limit reached" to "building" again. My bad.

Anyway, without a single "team-mate" stopping, acknowledging or anything, I counted..wait for it.. 9 choppers get built, lost and rebuilt! SHEESH.

GDI won on points..small wonder eh? I never got that ride, so tabbed it and made a right pig's ear of my one-man insertion.


Oh, and I've only been MVP twice and both times found that it seemed to attract fire In a bunch of units - foot or vehicle - it seemed that I was the only one.Heheh

That's the big problem with those radio commands. Example

When i say building needs repair then
1. I'm repairing it and can handle it on my own.
2. I'm defending it and need someone to repair it.

In other words when i use a command i mean it.

Only use the radio commands when you need them. I hate those people who hear Power plant under attack. And says building needs repair while he's on the other side of the map.

onetime in the flying city map, me and a group of about 3 hotwires were repairing the war fac from the mct. after it was at full health the other hotwires left and forgot to disarm the timed c4. there were 4-5charges and i managed to disarm 2. if the other guys were paying attention, the war fac probably would have stayed up but the stupid c4 blew me up.

I've experienced this: Join a game and go for first place of the own team - then you are the boss and the others follow you.

I played a game on Walls the other night, I was a SBH, and had a beacon. I made it into the enemy base undetected, and saw 6 Med Tanks forming up for a rush. I figured I'd wait on the beacon and let my team know what was coming, so I say "6 Meds on the way, grab some AT characters" and I see my message disappear cause someone on our team was spamming " I need repairs" over and over again. I tried 6 times to warn them, but no one seemed to get the message and we were pounded. I still got thier WF and managed to get back, only to see 9 Engineers healing our base and no one fighting the tanks

Fun huh?

I hate noobs who go out on their own. I was NOD on the Under map, and I had just taken out some infantry and a med tank near the tiberium. I made my way back to the airstrip with just a sliver of health left. I yelled out for about 5 minutes that I needed an engineer.

3 Basic Soldiers and a Stealth Black Hand came to me. And stood there. I waited for a while, and I saw an engineer come out from the Ref. and run right past me. So I got out of my tank, traded in my Raveshaw char for an engineer and got back to my flame tank, only to see the dust behind it as it sped(as fast as a flame tank can go) away, with the Stealth Black Hand(name: TowTow) inside it.

I see the tank just reach over the ramp up to the tiberium and I notice a message in the top-left corner:
[RUf] Degenerate killed TowTow

Needless to say, I laughed throughout the whole game at TowTow, and he left at the beginning of the next game.

Has anyone here been playing renegade on that server in gamespy with the 50 player max.? I think a good strategy to the walls level in that server is to get most of your teammates to follow you (basic troops) and use their c4 to severe the enemies options. this hasnt worked for me yet but if people would listen, we would easily win the game.

Raveshaw for an Engi?

Sounds like some Unintelegence on your Part, You Should have just let the thing die, or Buy a New one...

Unless you mean the Airport was at a Sliver and not your Flame tank, Then I can see it, But 1000 dollar unit for a Free unit... or even 1000 dollar unit for a 350, The math doesnt add up for an 800 dollar Flame tank

I have another example of people who dont listen. today i was playing that server with the 50 poeple in it and i bought a stealth tank. when i went back to base to get repairs, i said "nobody take my tank" and went in the airstrip to become a techie. when i came back out, i saw a guy named "Mipemiep" take my tank and he wouldnt get out. I dont like miepmiep because he is a dum dum who steals poeples tanks. after that, I bought another stealth tank and when the plane dropped it off, a couple guys were trying to steal it but i got in. stupid miepmiep.

Funniest thing last night was when a Hotwire hit our Obelisk She planted all her C4 but blew the remotes first so we knew to come and fix it. I was first on the scene and disposed of the pesky Hotwire with a few rounds to the head , saw 2 timed C4s and backed off a bit while starting repairs. Low and behold 2 engies run in and start repairing, right next to the timed C4.

Me: "You better back off from that timed C4"
Me: "Back off!"
Them: (repair) Ignore (repair)
Timed C4: Boom
Them: **** we're dead
Me: lol

Had to fix the Obelisk all by myself

i'd rather play with one leader and everyone else listening to them than anything else, that way u can listen to the leader and the followers will be able to do those things, most experienced player should be leader, maybe have 2 leaders, like an offensive and defensive

Em, I doubt that would work mainly because most people wouldn't listen. Of course you are right that if it worked there would be a lot more teamplay. The thing is though that would everyone enjoy the game? After all the most experienced player would remain the most experienced player for the duration of the entire game.

Maybe you should consider the fact that it is arrogant to expect people to listen to you. You are noone and If I wanted to listen to the Boss I'd go to work. Your probably one of those people who think that we should all follow your tank out as engy,tech,hotwires and be cannon fodder for the other team so that some pushy jerk can get MVP ,just because he had good support.
This game is about teamwork but that doesn't mean that we all have to obey your every command and sacrifice ourselves to make you a hero. I don't get mvp alot but I don't play to be mvp I play for fun and to relax. While your out getting points there has to be someone sitting on Defense or keeping the tunnles cleared or watching the back door. I love it when someone gets ****ed off because 1 person couldn't defend the entire base and we lose a building or the whole base because my hotwire-tech had no support and couldn't save the whole base alone.

When I ask for help, it is usually because i need help because of a rush, i need people to help repair the base or if i'm trying to organize a strike plan.
almost all the time when i am repairing a building that had just been invaded by basic troops, I try to disarm the timed c4 and everyone else just runs off, thus, resulting in the building being destroyed when the c4 goes off. I dont boss everyone around, I am trying to get them to prevent us from losing. I dont really care about MVP that much. I just want to have fun. Its just really annoying when these stupid people on our team destroy a building with a beacon (a bug) and then noone fesses up. this ruins that game because noone can disarm it and gives the other team an unfair advantage. whenever I try to get a team of rocket troops to help me take out a building (ex. power plant in under via tunnel) my team never listens and we usually end up losing because our eam doesn't cooperate or we are overwelmed by the other teams offense. So, you are saying im arrogant for trying to get my team to trying to help me, everyone is arrogant.
