Just finished our first "practice" correct me if im wrong but im not sure we got anywhere. Theres suppost to be a difference between playing individually or playing with a team and from last night, no-one else was offering suggestions. As I said tonight, maybe im taking this thing too seriously. Its only cause I play this game every second im not at work or with the woman:) (sorry guys but you aint got her body) I do have some really cool suggestions if your interested I will write them down and post/email them. I just feel that if we create some original styles we will be the best in the business. Im a manager, so everything has to be organized and planned.lol

Nope, you aren't taking this to seriously and I'm sure GeneralH would agree as well. What General and I were talking about last night would be getting all of us together on a server (we could actually use our guild server for this part) and dissecting a map each week. We would go in and not actually fight but share tips and secrets. For instance, General has a very good technique for getting upstairs quickly when you are Blue in Hong Kong Hotel. 
 
Then ideally, I would see us playing that map against each other after we have dissected it. Each playing a round on one color, then flipping to the other color. I'm with you, practice should be more organized, and I will take responsibility for that. Maybe Thursday, we can at least do the map walkthrough. 
 
Any other thoughts, guys? <IMG SRC="modules/phpBB_14/images/smiles/icon_razz.gif">

Here is something i said over at our BBC forum bout tactics and ways to practice em. One good way i think to do it is base the tactic on the number of people in a map and then practice as so. Say you have a 5v5 match on HK2. Basically you have one left defender...one middle defender....one right defender...one brief defender....then a floater......practice each position so each person knows what to do if they are that guy.....hence if you are left defender for the warehouse area...have one blue guy...or two for that matter try to get by you....have the rest of the team watch...give advice to what the blue guy did wrong or could have done differently and likewise for the red....do each area like that...then start with 2 areas and work your way up...until basically if blue completely rushes one side that person is able to let everyone else know so they can counter depoly and what not.....sooner or later you will be able to react to each other without having to have any type of communication. just an idear from da wulf 
 
one thing that helped me out alot was some thing Poo posted on tactics on our board...ever since i switched to the AK full time i roXXer peps all over the place lol.

I gotta agree. You can have the best players, but a bad plan and get wasted everytime. Ive seen it happen too many times on the eof.sof2 server. If you know what the man on each side of you is doing you are more sure of your own path. And if you see that a specific person goes down.....you know where the other team is. 
 
Just my two cents...
