<div class="IPBDescription">Can a team...</div>Ok... I have been told that it may not be able to do but I will ask still...
Here is the question:
Can a team (as team and individually) improve from down (low skilled-average) to up becoming a very good team?
Ok, I would like your answers, flame if you want and suggestion will be greatly appreciated :)
Vas.
PS: Sorry for the nosense :>

    Hehe, you still in sK, Vaseline?

    Anyways.. you need to rephrase that.. what exactly are you trying to ask?

    Are you asking whether a team of players can rise in skill by playing together, then I would have so say.. no. You need to play with a great diversity of people to improve. Just playing with 1 group would probably just slow your progress.

    If you are asking whether a group of people will improve in time.. then yes of course, anyone gets better with time as long as they get challenged!

    I agree with NeedVaseline --- You must always play with vibrant groups of peole. Nothing will improve if you play in one team--- same tactics. You will become better in this way either, but it will take much more time...

    According to you guys, if I (individually) play only with sK (wich is my clan) I wont improve? Playing with other clan seems possible to me but not for the rest, or if you mean different oponnents... well.. that is the thing, we will face many people and we will adjust our strategies I hope.
    Well, more comments will be appreciated! Thanks DarkE (I miss u from channel :\) And thanks INT3GRAL.

    It is good to play with your clan and get your strategies down but you need to play with a variety of people and see how they play and how to play against other kinds of play.

    OK, Vas... It is good that you have your clan. But you know your clans guys very well. And what if you play alone (no friends or clan-mates are with you)<!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo--> OOHH! Now you have to think more egoisticly "Ramboing" because random co-player wont assist you as much as your clan mate will. SO you meet more unfriendly atmosphere- new level of playing. New skills. They will help you in your clan battles.
    Am i right??

    So you suggest us to play non-togheter on random skilled servers (hard to find in these days) without any clanmate (so I will play alone and try to get myself working as a rambo). That will be good, do you think that playing loads of PCW is good for clan improving and squad improving? We are trying that, and the solo thingie lets hope it improves myself as player <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Well. Teamplay is good, but how can you help your teammates (covering fire for example) if you shoot poorly? And why do you shoot poorly (i don't tell this to you, VAS, I am just analyzing)<!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo--> Because u used to play with your clanmates-- you can pre-calculate each of their steps... But ramboing on unknown server adds you more courage and killing efficienty... YOu know how to act, WHEN YOU ARE NOT COVERED--- THIS MAY SAVE YOUR TMATES LIFE...

    Exactly!

    Every server is different to some extent, just find a bunch of servers which you like (or just 1 with a lot of different people), and play on it, try different things, learn to adapt to different opponents.
    Playing the same game over and over again will just get you good at that game, not all games in general, DIVERSITY is the key!

    And Vas, whens the sK server going 3.0? I miss playing Lance's weird maps <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    If you're talking about improving your aim, just join a random pubbie server and rambo. Its fun and you kill tonsa skulks and they die! Just pray you have a decent comm that'll give you meds and not go "omg you need ammo?!?! suicide!!!!"

    INT3GRAL: Excellent explanation thanks a lot
    DarkE: thanks you too, sk is on NS3, we have combat and normal NS servers, but the link seems to be dead today... at last to me.
    BOBDOLOL: LoL... well if he is bad commander I will kill his CC, I lost some aim on moving skulks... I´m getting too used to newbie skulks :\
    Vas.
    PS: I may not be around this last days.... I´m travelling to America (Argentina) to see my dad... he may die soon so I have to see him <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I'm guilty of being too conservative too, Vas - I only really spend time on either our server or getting bored by Combat maps on others. I think it is good that we do stay together, but maybe if we organised some kind of exchange scheme? Say we all split up and join a different clan for 2 weeks or something, the reform and see what's happened.
    Your Dad will be fine, remember <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo--> just tell him we won that match for him. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
