im with collazo on this. i think until we get a steady stream of pubbers that play on our server without any 1st in there it will have worse results than what might be expected. and just like jagd or colmar i think there needs to be a certain amount of people (maybe around 8v8) that are willing to stay until the map changes otherwise its slow and lame.

Really what i think we need is to bring back the map voting system MINUS the EXTEND MAP option. That way there nobody's bitching about extending but everybody has a say on what map it is and can avoid those "SLOW" maps if the numbers are not there or if nobody wants to play them. Doing this might keep the server from emptying out everytime a slow or unwanted map comes up.

I like Strand in small doses.

I do however agree we need to get a stronger regular player base before we start including this map. Your everyday casual pubber may play a few rounds on it before they leave and join a different server.

Maybe since our guys are on the server alot we could try to work with the pubbers, and explain the tactics on the allied side and try to give them some balls instead of letting them get frustrated. This could even lead to some new recruits if we try to work with them while on the map... just an idea

Well after reading these posts for a few days now I'm not surprised by the mixed opinions on this subject.

Here are some facts:

1. There are people that just play DOD:S for strand.

2. There are servers in DOD:S where strand fills it up.

3. Strand was made to be onesided, but thats the fun/challenge in it

On the otherhand

4. Strand is like the Yankees, alot of people hate it more than love it.

5. Strand can clear out a server because of the allies disadvantage.

6. Strand would require us (1st MRB and BAR) to support it when it's on if it were put on the rotation.

After reading that, here is my question to you - should we put strand on the server, but not in the rotation?

I was just about to suggest that, if everyone is iffy about having in the rotation, but still mildly enjoys playing the map, why not add it to the server but leave it out of the rotation for now.

So yeah, at least put it on the server, we have the ability to put it in a map vote. (Apparently everyone spams 1 so it'll be played whether they meant to say yes or not)

      jelly3384's application for Enlistment Form Questions Name you wish to use and Age: (Our unit uses realistic names, this does not have to be your real name) Pigeon, 16 Platform Type Epic Games Store Steam ID (Use 17 Digit SteamID 64 / PC Game Pass Account Username): Pigeon_theft   Do you have a microphone? Yes   Which game title are you applying for? Hell Let Loose   If you've selected Hell Let Loose, do you understand that this game is currently not cross platform capable and only PC players currently may apply? ( Steam or PC Game Pass) Yes   Why do you wish to join the 1st Marine Raiders? I've played BFV and milsimed in it, and it was a lot more fun when I milsimed. and I enjoy playing HLL, so I think it is going to be more fun when I join.   Did any of our current members play a part in you enlisting? If so, who? If none, how did you learn about us: I found you guys from a website called disboard when looking for HLL milsim groups to join.   This unit offers more than just a place to play games with each other, do you have any online skills you think would be useful? no   Do you have any Leadership experience that you think will be helpful? I'm not sure if it will be helpfull,but I used to be in BFV milsim groups and in my last one I got to [E-7] out of [E-1] to [O-8], so I was a NCO and I helped the officers with whatever they needed doing, weather it was assisting with training, settling disputes or helping them decide what was appropriate disciplinary action. And when we were in combat I was usually assigned to lead my own squad.   Have you ever been in a realism unit before, and if so, which unit was it? yes. I was in quite a few BFV milsim groups, although I was only in one at any given time. unfortunately, I have left the discord servers and I do not remember the names of them. if you would like, I could probably give a reference to someone who was an officer in most of the groups I was in.   By posting this Enlistment form, I acknowledge the instructions completely, declare that I am 16 years old or older, and agree that I have and will follow server and unit rules maturely and respectfully or face immediate rejection. Yes   Application stats UserId: 943213736024498227 Username: jelly3384 User: @Rec. J. Buford Duration: 1131 seconds Joined guild at: a day ago
