MyBB BF3 Clan

In seriousness,
2 Infantry moving east along road towards delta (or whatever point they moving to)
 
Just a quick scenario:
map.jpg


(Those "V" shapes are players, and it indicates the direction they are facing)

Two enemies run past Teamie A, who sees them, and needs to warn where they are. If we assume that the top of the image is the top of the map/north/their spawn (ie, 12 o'clock), what must teamie A then say to identify? Let's assume he is not aware of Teamie B's exact position.

PS - MSPaint FTW!

This shyte is getting serious business now.

People drawing up MSPaint pictures for tactical strategies in work hours. One of these days no matter how many hours I put into this game I will be WTFPWNED by you strategic bastards. Burn bastards burn !!! Tonight I will violate your corpses :mad:


On a serious note.

on TS: "Teamie B there is a Patrol moving toward the section you're approaching get ready to WTFPWN them with your RPG!"
 
I can see people looking around on their map trying to remember where the 7 or the 4 goes and then get WTFPWNED by an RPG :D

Haha.....Yup, trying to press N or M and rotating your map will surely get you blasted and waste precious time.

I really think its all about working in squads. I dont like the idea of splitting squads on TS but everybody in squad A shouting "infantry on left" will confuse the hell out of squad B. Maybe its a necessary evil?

If im going down a street with 3 squadies and I see infantry on our left and shout it out, most of them will generally understand what I mean. Maybe the guy watching our rear will have to compute what 'my left' is but in general, we will all point left to engage him. We will also look at the minimap and hopefully he is spotted. Obviously this will not work for league but then again there arent 64 hooligans blowing crap up in league. Its a little slower and more tactical.

Its all about learning the maps and communicating with your squadies. There should be no communication between the infantry in different squads. We shouldnt even hear each other. Not sure how squad leaders would communicate with other squad leaders. Imagine im running around, dodging grenades, bullets and RPGs and someone shouts " Squad A, Sund *speaking*, infantry 3 o'clock". It will probably take me a few seconds to react and figure out what 3o'clock is.
 
Problem is, teamie B might move forward and turn to his left (same way the enemies are facing - not towards) thinking they already ran past him.

2 Infantry moving east along road towards delta, ETA 14 seconds

So now teamie B will now that the enemies are not part him yet, cause his position is 10 seconds away from delta :p

In the heat of battle this super military style info isnt gonna cut it methinks... :/

Just web the TS over various squads like they do in the army.

Squad leader will be in 2 channels (General and squad channel) He receives all messages from the other squad leaders talking to their teams and relays the info necessary for his squad which the other squad leaders will hear. That way the squad leaders knows exactly what's happening all over the map. The squaddies just focus on the leaders orders.

I agree, this won't be practical now. I was just thinking of something that happened last night - We were all around the market somewhere when someone said "sniper on the other side" I was just thinking "what other side would that be then" as I died. If he said "sniper to the east" I would have seen that I was open to the east and ran for cover.

That might have been me ;)

Maybe in the heat of battle we just randomly shout crap...haha...The solution is to be more precise. So I should have said, "Sniper across the road, get down" and then once I figure out im not dead, try spot him and add "just across the market"...

Not sure what the pro clans do though...Anyone know?
 
Sounds good to me too! Great suggestions and input from everybody, keep 'em coming :)

Who is "Kosmik" on TS?

Me :D Although I think it might say KosmikZA which is my nick for international where Kosmik is this forum.
 
Hey all
You guys still recruiting/accepting sign-ups for myBB? If so, then I'd give it a good go :)
I hate PUG's... Ok, I hate snipers also, but I hate campers more. xD (no offense meant to the sniping teamies, you're awesome)

OriginID = Leakysandwich
 
Hey guys. Might not make it tonight. If I do its going to be quite late. Definately tomorrow night though.
 
Thanx for the games tonight y'all, it was hella fun.
Despite all the raping we took. :D

Still need to get used to all the new voices on TS.
 
Dunno what was up with 8ta tonight. Kept on disconnecting. The 1 and half games was fun. We need to learn to tag these clowns.
 
Hmmm, on another serious note and this is aimed primarily at those wanting the clan to do tourney/league, not the casual player:

Squads! It's great that folks are playing together in squads but from what I saw last night squads do not neccesarily work together or the clan on a server play as a team. We had about 8-9 peeps at one time on TS, one full dedicated myBB squad and the rest scattered over other squads on the server. Being also full server, folks could not re-organise into squads. Guys, we need to play as a team. Multiple squads either going for single objectives or taking multiple in tandem to cause confusion. What I'd like folks to do to foster this is:

1) Primary goal get in a squad with other myBB's or at worst in a squad thats actively working together.
2) If we are many on a server and not in squads together, rather we go en-masse to another server, set up, and other folks will join, especially if we are a large group.
3) The magical number for a squad is 4 but if we are less than full squads, try 3 x 3 and let the empty slot be filled by public. This person will either assist or not but most folks will get the gist of the squad and at least follow and provide support,
4) TS - use it , even if it's just to listen in. We need to investigate channel command and cross channel leader comms for squads. At the mo it's great to have everyone talking together but unless you knw the voices or you diret your comment to a teamie, it can be confusing.

I don't foresee a problem with that.
Feel free to add me to your friend's list (ID: Psycho_Pitbull) and go search for the mybroadband.co.za platoon and apply to join.

I remember playing against you last night, you killed me a couple of times........ Bloody Agent! :D
 
Hi guys. I still have an issue when using team speak with Battlefield 3. I can hear you guys 100% but I get no sounds from Battlefield. Is this sound card related because I have a on board soundcard or is there a setting I can modify. I also checked even I run teamspeak (no connected just running the program) I get no sounds movies/winamp etc.
