  1. @Marvel Well?
  2. +1 this is chill asf!
  3. +1 this is heat Monty there is NO WAY you are on the server still dawg... you have literally been playing since I joined literally SIX YEARS AGO!!!
  4. +1 goated
  5. I see what you mean, but I disagree. Worst case scenario, you've just poured tons of battalion resources into a failed project. The point I am making is that, while there is initial interest in the squad, it will not be sustainable at all and will not last. People have always used Foxtrot as a transition squad, and I don't think it will be used any differently now. It will gradually wind down to be how it has always been, a squad filled with people who want RC but are held back because of love for 212th or just general insufficiency for SO BDE. I understand what you're saying about GC, but I don't think it applies to Foxtrot. As you said, Ghost Company receives the extra lore names and the prestige within 212th, and those who join it are the most elite troopers that 212th has to offer. I don't believe that this mentality that people have with Ghost Company will apply to Foxtrot. People will view it as a weird SO BDE junior rather than a 212th elite squad. The mentality of Foxtrot was never and has never been, as a 212th Elite RC Squad. It has been as a 212th/SOBDE Hybrid amalgamation that people used as a tool to have an SO BDE experience mixed with a traditional battalion. Foxtrot is unsustainable in the long run. The addition of it now is pointless, and I can see it being removed again. That is the argument I have against Foxtrot, and from my original message. The squad will run fine, but not for long. It will have interest, but not for long. It will have members who want to be in it for it, and are active in it, but not for long. I hope this clarifies things. If you'd like to keep talking about these things, let me know! I have good experience.
  6. -1 I don't think Foxtrot can be sustainable in the long run at all. Coming from a former member of Foxtrot in SO BDE, it is plagued with issues that do not allow it to work. Foxtrot always felt like a lesser squad, like a stepping stone squad, like something people who wanted to be in SO BDE would use to get experience before they hopped into a different, better squad. People say that it was handled in 212th better and that they were active, but to be honest were they? It was the same. Yes, they were active on the server and did well in 212th, but at the end of the day, it felt the same as when it was in SO BDE. People went to Foxtrot because they A. Wanted to get into SO BDE but couldn't or B. Wanted to be in SO BDE and 212th at the same time. I feel like it'll be the same way now. It'll be used so that people in 212th who want to be SO BDE can have something close enough. I don't think it won't work or that it'll be inactive or poor or anything like that, but I just think it'll be unsustainable. The people in the squad will be people who don't really want to be in the squad if that makes sense.
  7. +1 BRING IT BACK BRING IT BACK BRING IT BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't even need the jobs - just rename the CT PVT to 101st PVT !!! LIKE GOD INTENDED!!!!!!! THIS WAS THE WAY IT WAS MEANT TO BE! EVER SINCE THE DAY THE SERVER WAS BORN!
  8. +1 but weren't there some huge, crippling issues with this that caused horrible server performance and them to be banned to be used? Are these issues 100% fixed?
  9. +1 i am against comics
  10. +1 always something with you
  11. The point he's making is that adding GC medic doesn't give any real leg up on 2ndAC. If you remove 2ndAC medic, it makes the role of GC medic more desirable because it's now the only subunit medic. Why would someone be a GC medic when they can be a 2ndAC medic instead and get a jetpack? Marvel's saying that gives GC more of a leg up, rather than them getting a medic as well and better guns.
  12. +1 for the medics, this can provide cool new roleplay with special operation medics -1 for the purge weapons (if what Mystic said is true) I think this is a dumb reason for wanting additional things tbh. I understand where it comes from, but I don't think 2ndAC and GC can be (and should be) equally compared. GC is supposed to draw people in not because cool models but because of cool lore and prospects of special operations and the tight-knit squad structure. Saying that the quality members that could choose between either choose 2ndAC on the criteria of good model vs jetpack is IMO more indicative of a larger issue that needs to be resolved and that shouldn't be resolved just by giving a strong weapon to GC. There has to be something that allures people that isn't just a strong weapon. GC is sick as hell and you guys gotta use the other stuff you have to do that. You don't need a medic job and a new weapon to get more members and compete with 2ndAC! You can use what you have, like the interesting dynamic of GC and the interesting lore characters and the elite stance on roleplay to get quality members. If those members make their decision on where to go based on models/jetpacks, they aren't that quality of a member anyway! But yea a medic job would be cool nonetheless and pretty useful for operations and stuff
  13. +1 @Naffen Be better next time
  14. +1 dog that had tarkin for so long bring him back!
  15. -1 Force cloak OR do what we used to do when I was Niner and just plan for having Etain around! If you and your omega guys are wanting to do some stealth with Etain you just have to be more sneaky because Etain can be spotted. Use your Omega who are cloaked to help you out! Worst case scenario - just ask for a GM to give you a cloak if you need it. I think having Etain have no cloak is a cool dynamic because it forces you to think and be creative instead of just going invisible too.
  16. +1 It feels good to get a little promotion here and there. Not every rank has to have purpose. Some can be there for fun.
  17. i coded this
  18. +1 fuck you grey RC you ruined my life

  23. you are perhaps one of the funniest men I have met ever
  24. +1 this a good spot. Players will pass by this spot to get to where they go anyway, so if its there they'll see it and go "OH YEAH! MY SPIN!" just like in armory. Players would probably have to go out of their way to get if its in mess hall. I don't know many people who go through there regularly. I guess it could get the room used more if it was in there, though!
  25. 212th Foxtrot SO BDE was like a gateway squad but in 212th it was its own thing and was awesome
