Re: BF4C3 Feedback

1) People sign up 2) That 'who should be general thread' pops up 3) We try to match #2 with #1, while also matching general styles, by talking to the candidates and gauging their seriousness. 4) Eventually we find or coerce two people into doing it For some campaigns, we've had basically no applican...

Re: BF4C3 Feedback

C1 ended after severe army imbalance developed. I welcome any and all suggestions as to how to prevent imbalance and/or how to salvage a campaign after attendance or skill imbalance develops. Reviewing the campaigns I've attended (started with BF3 C2), I would say that the campaign system has never ...

Re: A call for BF3!

I like BF3 better than BF4 but I think you guys are forgetting how freaking awful the gun glitch was. Towards the end we were basically dropping a third or more of the rounds in a battleday. There's no evidence they've made this better at all. If this venice thing were ready to go right now, I might...

Re: BF4C3 Feedback

It's worth mentioning that every Risk campaign has had "that map" that feels like you've played it endlessly. It's just the nature of the beast. You should see what happens in a campaign that lasts forever - the same territory might change hands multiple times if it's in a strategic locati...

Player 3 enters the game (I had a kid)

My son was born this morning at 1:47AM. Dudes, drop what you're doing, call you mother, and thank her for pushing you out. crap is whack and you owe her mad respect. Kid's doing fine, still haven't settled on a name yet. MLGxx420LegitHardSCopez has been vetoed by my family so I'm out of ideas. I'm p...

Re: World Cup 2014: QUARTERS.

I can't believe that they showed that kid crying into his cup . That moment was probably seen by more people than any other audience in history. In history . When his friends find out who he is, and they will... my god. Maybe it's not so bad in Brazil but I guess the american equivalent would be baw...

Re: BATTLEFIELD 4 C3 DRAFT LIVE

I think the idea was to get people playing BF again. We had a very long downtime between C1 and C2 and it kind of breaks community momentum.

Re: World Cup 2014 IS FINALLY HERE!

high Yep, that's haruky all right 8O At this point I'm hoping for a non-embarrassing performance and a win by Portugal versus Ghana. At first I was pissed that the games are at noon on Thursday for me, but actually that works out great since we have a TV in our cafeteria. I'll just take a longer th...

Re: World Cup 2014 IS FINALLY HERE!

JESUS CHRIST ALMIAGAEGHAWEGHWEG The US just always looks like a second rate team. End of the game, 4 minutes into stoppage time, and we take the ball deep into Portugal territory... and everyone is just walking around near midfield. WTF. Some decent passing and actual skills and the game could just ...

Re: Campaign Statistics

BF3:C6 was zero draft, purely "assigned". Balance is rare since it basically can't be engineered. Attendance and morale will dramatically alter the balance of the armies over the course of the campaign. Either way, the fact that something like that never came close to happening in previous...

Re: Campaign Statistics

Because as far as I can tell going back through the rest of the stats, that's never even come close to happening before. In fact, the only other campaign in Blue's stats where the eventual victor wasn't already clearly in the lead by week 3 is BF3:C4. And that wasn't an even split. So it's kind of n...

Re: Campaign Statistics

I would just like to point out that at the end of Week 3 (not counting BFI), both armies had won exactly 16 rounds.

In other words, at the end of week 3, BF4C2 was an almost perfectly balanced campaign. Well played there guys.

GGs everyone :D Defuse actually worked great, at least IMO. It was a lot of fun with some insanely tense moments. I had fun casting but I agree with zorplex that we should get more people together and in the rotation. I know haruky tried to rally the casters, but not too many answered the call. Come...
