Do you pick up the trash?

Edit: Okay you know what the mods are in Vegas or something so dick it we’re doing it live

So you’ve finally found that Chapel SW server you’ve been looking for all evening. You load in, but already you’ve got that feeling in the back of your mind, all the Aimees and Proxys running around, crying for medics but with none in sight, convinced that the way to win is to have a team that’s entirely snipers. Does that factor into your squad choices? Do you make sure and have something that can contribute to the objective or always have a medic in your squad? Personally, I try to have an assault/fire support, a medic and an engineer but it limits you to what mercs you can take on some maps and when you try to shake it up you end up with no ammo, no medics and no chance of winning.

If you have a different opinion shove it put it in a reply because this forum software is bobbins

I just lay my life as Arty because the fucking pointer keeps resetting :confused:

I believe I’m at around four thousand heroic deaths now.

But of course, that’s only when I want to. wink :wink:

I can vouch for that, @Xenithos doesn’t deserve that cobalt F82, a Phoenix would suit him better

LOL! :mrgreen:

It’s still the most depressing cobalt that I’m saving from Gen 1… I’d trade it for a decent gen 2 Platinum Blishlock Phantom or an S95 Stoker of any event style or Platinum…
:disappointed: I’m so bad with snipers it’s not even funny.

Also, my Obisdian Phoenix is still pretty awesome. :mask: :smirk:

@Xenithos nooo, save it for trading, and I’ll craft a cobalt for you (not S95 Stoker though, I have that in Gen 1 gold and will never let go)

I want a Gen 1 F82 so bad, just for the novelty, and it’s the right camo too

Okay I fixed it because the admins aren’t out of bed yet I guess, or maybe they don’t get notified if you edit it like that. I think those options aren’t too bad anyway. The question comes up every few months about removing the squad limitations because the kiddies go play Overwatch for a bit I guess, but I was curious about how much of a toss people actually give.

I feel like that a lot. Arty is like the heavy lifter of Dirty Bomb, if there’s one around he’s usually doing 90% of the team’s work. Not Skyhammer so much though since just about anyone can download the game and fling an airstrike marker at his feet.

I want to be more like that but I find it really difficult to do :frowning: I get really aware that stuff isn’t getting done and vow never to do it again

Since I almost never play Assault Mercs or Snipers I stick to anything that supports my team.

Always.

Arty and Sawbonez are my favourite mercs so it’s not a bad thing for me to play them, no not at all. I embrace it!

(The_N00Ba) #11

yeah blonk the calls to the mods don’t work if you do it while editing as far as I know. You needed to call them again with another post. or you could have tried a PM. what ever… fun topic.

(Tanker_Ray) #12

AWW YEAAHHHHH THE 2nd ONE!!!

(geronimoooo) #13

I just want to have fun. Which sometimes means, I have a balanced roster. Other times, I end up with aimee, vassili and red eye and sometimes I am so lazy that I just pick up 3 medics and go that route.

(kopyright) #14

One engineer, one medic, and whatever fits the map (Arty on Chapel, Nader on Underground, Phantom when I am in the mood for some fun)

(Herr_Hanz) #15

chapel is THE map where snipers can carry. ive done it myself a few times as well. try delivering the EMP when you get shot at by 5 snipers :stuck_out_tongue:

(BlackboltLW) #17

…if only I know how to fun

(Xyfurion) #18

Usually I have the same squad across all matches. Stoker, Fletcher and Sparks. I might sometimes swap people out for missions or if I feel I don’t feel like playing my squad. It’s highly subjective based on my mood.

(Terminal_6) #19

All of the answers apply to me at least a little bit. It’s not in my nature to not try to win, so I’ll throw Arty at them over and over. Since this is pubs, there’s a fair chance I’ll have triple the score of the person below me, but I don’t really care about any of it because I like to see big numbers and have fun.

Party Mode: ENGAGED

I normally run a Medic, Fire Support and Engi. (Aura/Phoenix, Arty, Fletcher generally.) I play what the team needs, but WE WILL HOLD.
