Title: Tactical Gamer (Gameplay for Grown-Ups)
Post by: Badger on May 16, 2003, 07:46:54 AM
For those of you who are into other types of simulations, here's a fun place with some good people.  I've been using it for almost year now.  Lots of retired and currently serving military types from various countries.  Some excellent mature on-line gaming. :D

Of course it is...

That's how you can sing the praises of a community with a wopping 4 days of posting experience.

No, it's not... But more importantly, who are you?

4 days?  This community has been around since July 2001?  If you'd taken the time to read a bit about them before slamming them, you'd find it's the inauguration of their new site.

Again, who are you?  I don't know if they've banned you in the past or whether they would in the future, but you certainly have the on-line personality to be a likely candidate. ;)

Badger

True, but under their basic membership level you can play on Dual OC3 bandwidth connections and be part of their community for "free".  Much better game play then most public servers, often loaded with some pretty strange out-of-control characters.  Here it's "free", but registrations are validated.  It only begins to cost for access to a broader range of player services, including game-play on their private servers.

From the Home Page:

Free Membership
• Limited Forums Access
• Access to Tactical Gamer PUBLIC gaming servers

Heya Badger!

Signing up now. This looks like something I've been looking for for a while.  

(PS: Ammo, next time you ask me "how was school?" I'll send you my mortage bill, ok? :))

For Ghost Recon, TG vs. a normal server is like the difference between the MA and scenarios.  The SOPs make it so anybody can "plug in" to a team and have the kind of mutuality that we have with squaddies in AH.  There is a focus on leadership skills and good comms discipline which results in a very immersive experience and a lot of dead tangos.  I am completely addicted to TG right now.

im still having a tough time with the difference in vision and hearing in the game as compared to real life. i dont like ghost recon because you are channeled into a fight almost every op by the "map". ive seen flashpoint but havent played it but i like that flashpoint has "real" terrain. i also like the sight picture of flashpoint the best even tho i havent played it. i think ill try playing with the guys from that webpage tho.

i need a translation from you. "1337 g@m3r 5k1ll5"?

elite gamer skills  :)
Yes the map is a little confining.
The sight picture is cheesy of course.  I'm guessing they are simulating some sort of Land Warrior fire control system.
TG also has servers for America's Army (more realistic weapons but cheesy maps and no single player / co-op modes) and Raven Shield (more realistic weapons but strictly CT/CQB maps).

Whoa... my apologies.

Just that the board was 4 days old... or at least... no posts older than that.  And badger... I'd investigate it further, but your name was attatched to it.

And psssst... verm... I've never said he wasn't part of this community for some time... someone else did.
