333 [5IN] bassmasta76 Supertester 2,036 posts 9,622 battles Report post #1 Posted September 11, 2017 Today, after 1 year, 3 months and 7 days, I have played my 4000th random battle. I know 4k isn't much compared to some, but for me, its a long time, especially playing one game. I still love it and play pretty much every day. So, thanks WG team and my fellow forumites, it's been a blast! Onward to 5k! B 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I sure do... thanks! I do enjoy it a lot.... even those days like today where in my first game I get deleted by a CV in <5min. ship happens, but it's still a ton of fun. I even splurged today and bought a Saipan (don't worry though, I promise I won't be playing it in Randoms anytime soon). b Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Methinks all the minor-leaguers are going to have to wait for my E-xp to get built back up... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am no where near ready to try CV on the live server. I dabble a bit in PT but am still too intimidated by the interface. Saipan would be the one I would get if and when I take the plunge.

I've played a few PVE matches in it so far and I am nowhere near confident enough to take it into randoms. Manual dropping and straffing aren't as easy as they look in the videos. practice makes perfect (or at least better) though.. b Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe ignorance is bliss Khafni... I don't think I've ever really had any trouble with the CV interface; beyond my original general cluelessness about the attack angle adjustment tab, strafe, and manual drops... I suppose that's because I never played any RTS games before.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've never been a fan or participant in an RTS in many,many years since Descent went away and my Orb controller crapped out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
