HOLD UP

New ranking system, or is it just the CSR BS we've heard before?

The time has come, and so have I

Damn, too early for my late ass. I'm on with some OcR guys.

So what do you think of the maps? And has anyone tried multi-team yet?

I haven't tried multi-team yet.

I think Daybreak will eventually become a favorite due to its symmetry, but early playing on the map makes me think hogs will have to be really good at flanks and CQC fighting.

Perdition much more fun than I thought it would be after brick called it a combination between Rat's Nest and Headlong. If you know how to maneuver a warthog, and you can visualize gunning angles even when you aren't facing the same way as your gunner, you can do really well on this map. Had the most fun driving on this one.

Outcast (I think that's the name of the rocky map) was also fun. At one point I think I was driving through the enemy base, but it may have been the shotty cave. I liked the way kill played on this map.

Overall, the maps are alright for me driving. I haven't played much of them on foot yet except Daybreak, and that experience wasn't the best. However, I think much of that can be attributed to map ignorance and a lack of coordination. I plan to be around Saturday to try to get a party rolling.

I played 1 game of multi team with Luverly Gunn, and didn't enjoy myself. And after that, we would find matches, and vote for a map, but then it would revert us back to the searching screen. So i won't be choosing multi team anymoar...
