If they actually get a release candidate to Vivendi on the 15th like they said they would then t'll probably be released late September. Either way it's close, and that's good enough for me.

My brother in law runs a DoD clan with three servers. I'm sure they'd be happy to play us, although I think we might get annihilated.

I think the first thing the team would need to do before looking for servers would be to first:

Select what game you will be playing (Although Im assuming Counter-Strike)
Second, each player has their own skills in certain areas, take advantage of that.

IE: Im a good sniper with with the Scout or the M4, so, obviously those are the weapons I will buy. But if I dont have the money and my Snarkpit Team member has 16 000$, then it would be nice of him to buy me a M4 so I can be more effective in combat, thus helping the team. A friend in need is a friend indeed. :wink:

As well, if we all know our specialties, its easier to devide into groups and plan assaults and stuff. As well, praticing together, things such as flashing a room and going in, effective use of your sidearm. How to clear a room. When and when not to run. Never to use the flashlight, use NVG instead.

Like I said, this is assuming its CS.

[edit]
A team always fares better too if they can talk. No one likes to type anyways, unless your dead. Then you type.

I think we should have a look on Counter-Strike first.

I only need Glock/USP and AK/M4.

Im an M4 user myself. Most often thats what I use. I tend to stay away from the AWP because people seem to think its an unfair weapon so if I do need a sniper I use the Scout. Thats if I can find a perch to snipe from, if not, the M4 is my sniping weapon. Close combat I stick with the M4 if I can afford it if not its the MP5.

As for sidearm, the USP is what I use. I dislike the AK very much though. I use the Styr Aug too if Im sniping and a Scout is impractical but a M4 isnt long ranged enough.

I figured we'd play whatever game type we decide on at the time. Be sort of an all-around team.

For CS I like:

AK, M4, steyr, and Sig

For DoD I like: SMGs, K98, M1-Grand & Carbine, and BAR.

Personally for primary weapons I use either an MP5, M4A1, or the Sig Commando; and for secondary its either the USP or the FiveSeven, give me range and accuracy over brute force any day. Though I am quite partial to a bit of 'shotgun to the head' action.

A word of warning though, my participation hangs on whether I'm able to get broadband where I live (the phone lines are being tested). At this point I'm going to be extremely optimistic and say I'm in, but that may change.

I must say I'm pretty OK with pistols / SMG's. I usually find myself in
a sucky team, so most of the time, that's all I can afford without
taking an eco round.

MP5 / Desert Eagle, baby. :smile:
