Thread: team play.....a definition

Hell YEAH! well 1 way ive found to get great teamwork happening is yellign and screaming on mic...me and oreo have found particular success wtih this ...we just yell and scream at everyone on our team to stick together and create rad plans for rushing..we basically yell and scream at everyone until they get so pissed off at us yelling they just follow to get us to shut up! ITS WHAT I LOVE ABOUT TEAMWORK..some ppl do it grudgingly..some ppl like to do it and some ppl jsut think its hella lot of fun..but w.e ur reasons r if u do it IT WORKS AND U CAN FKN OWN ALL THE LIL BITCHES WHO TRY TO GO SOLO.......so plz JUST WORK AS A TEAM AND STOP BITCHING ABOUT ME AND OTEHR PPL MIC SPAMMING..WE DONT HAVE 2 IF YOU WOULD JUST LISTEN!

First day I got my mic fixed back a few days ago I yelled whole time I was there.
Most no one knows how to mute and if they turn off the sound they'll never hear where firing is occuring and where footsteps are happening.
So they HAVE to listen to me... and it works well.
Microphone screaming = Success.
I don't know about the CS server but I got this DoD shit on Teamplay lockdown always when I'm on.

THANK YOU!!!

we need more of that.

Man, well said..

Then you'll understand what the server is about, and be given the priveldge and RESPONSIBILITY to start cleaning up the game, and getting back to business.

I have only recently found my voice, both on the server, and on the game.. Its so much easier to get people to play together when there is someone to tell them what the hell to do.. But people tend to get insolent with me cuz of the fact that I am a girl.. And it pisses me off when people get petty about shit.. So, I take pride now, in knowing that if you don't play as a team, your an asshole, plain and simple.. Jello and Scuba Steve have the right idea.. Seems to work for me as well.. But the more you play, the easier it is to tell people what to do.. And the easier it is for people to listen as well..

Two words made me click on the server the first time:

Texas and Teamplayers.

No shit. Just that simple.

And I am happy to have found what I was looking for:

Today, I was honored to be asked to organize and lead a team. It was, by far, the best gaming experience I've ever had in my life. Normally, I don't take the leadership role. Sure, I'll yell out to people "we need help over here," or "watch out around that corner". Stuff like that. But today was different. Someone said "Hartman, you've got a mic, why don't you get a rush together." I asked people to volunteer, and they did. I got to feel the rush of directing other players and leading a charge into the frey. I won't assume to be the leader, but if asked, I'll gladly do the job.

A week or so ago, I saw something I've never seen before. We were stalemated on Flash. Apparently we all died at once. When we respawned, the whole team was there. Someone voxed "Stick together" and we did. We plowed the other team with an eight man rush. It was a sight to behold. It was awesome, I've kicked myself about ten times since then for not getting the screen shot. Next time I will. And believe me, there will be a next time.

As for "The Job of Admin", I know exactly where you are comin from. I've run a couple of servers in my day too and I know how fucking shitty people can be. Honestly, from the sound of your post, you sound like you're getting a little burned out. Don't take it negatively. It happens to everyone sooner or later. I don't know who else is an admin, but if you've got one or two you trust, i'd recommend you turn things over to them for a few days. Take a break. It'll do you good and when you come back, things will be fresh. That's my 2 cents worth.

Finally, i think there is just one more thing that needs to be said:

Teamplay is alive here. Bigdog, you and your crew have done an outstanding job. I appreciate greatly the effort of you, your admin staff, and the players of your server. This is my home server, and there's no place I'd rather play.

Hartman

Hartman says it all. Ever since the first time I played the TTP server, I immediately saw that there were both good and bad players, but almost all of them, not including the jackasses, were willing to use their skills with the game to win. Yes maybe one team's best flag-capper/shooter had a record of 30-45-60, but the final score for the TEAM was 10 wins, and the other team a big fat 0.

Some people on the server just need a kick in the ass sometimes, saying something like, "Okay, you know how to suppress that entryway really well, so YOU cover our backs." We just need to get people involved.

Yelling at people ALL the time doesn't make much sense to me, but I can understand yelling at someone if they are just going for 'ole number one.' I'm not saying giving lackluster or non-cooperative players a little 'encouragement' every now and then is bad, I just think more people would enjoy the server and become regulars if we stressed the TEAM concept over everything else, which we already do. But perhaps some of the regulars or the server admins or the respected clan members that are always on should automatically get whoever joins immediately into the game. I just feel the regulars that everyone knows and respects sometimes fail in including everyone in the game. I'll admit that I am guilty of this. I will find myself only talking to Jello or Dome sometimes, and we'll be the only ones laying down covering fire, or flanking the mg position; but if we all make it a point to work together, then the playing experience would be eons better than what we've come to know it has. Not to mention, some of the first-timers would see that this is an excellent server, and will come back.

Bottom line is:
T.ogether
E.veryone
A.chieves
M.ore

That is why I love this server. For the most part, teamwork is used, and as a DoD player, that is a necessity. The average skill is challenging to compete with as well, which is good.

I remember my first time in here, I joined and it was Avalanche and I was on the Allies, and people were saying "sniper in the church window' and then "I got him" and the like. THAT was the moment I bookmarked this server. It's not always this good, but I haven't found another public server with anywhere near the quality and quantity of teamwork at any given time.
