<div class="IPBDescription">arrgh</div> I HATE IDIOTS WHO TRY TO COMM WHEN THEY ARENT IN THE CHAIR!!
im not talking about saying rt at xxx comm.. or we need a welder, our ip is down... im talkin bout the idiots who tell, not ask
The idiots who say WHYD U BUILD THERE DUMMY, WHY DIDDNT WE DO THIS, EJECT HIM HE ISNT GIVING ENUFF MINES
Example, we were playing NS_siege006 today, and my idiot team wouldnt do anything right.. on top of that the door opened early. There was 5 of us till right before the door opened. so we were scoopin in minimal res despite the huge amt of res towers..
The idiot team wanted me to build everything at main, and another forward base with everything.. not even listening to the fact that we had no res..... i told them to stay FORWARD but they all ran back.. our base in front was over run.. lost about 150 res on all buildings...
THEN they yelled when i beaconed them in.. not a total idiot.. i had plan b.. told them to go to SIEGE ROOM.. they said no no make base first...... they would not listen so i made another base.. just as onos started coming in.... the gorge blocked off siege room and we lost...
Then they had the nerve to call me a bad comm.... ARRGH
I HATE PEOPLE!!

The other day, I had an 11 year old kid trying to outstrat me and order marines around as I was trying to give them all different orders than what he was voicing. After a little talking, he shut up. Communication and a cool head are all it requires to command a team. Name calling, bickering, and being the bully at the playground get you nowhere and you've already lost.
If your comm has proven he isn't incompetent, just listen to him. He can see what you can't. And for the love of God marines... remember, dying with your LMG DOESN'T COST THE TEAM ANYTHING! So just go and get killed already, at least to slow the aliens down!

I'd like to know where you heard that. I've never checked in-game, res-flow fluctuates too much anyway. But from what I read on the forums, that had not been implemented because it would encourage marines to hide in order not to lose any res. (ie, marines stay back in the beginning of the game so they don't lose res)
Today, while playing in Bast, a certain player said on voicecomm at the beginning of the game "Everyone move to Main Aft!" Well, I had wanted to command, and had even asked on voicecomm, but since this guy was issueing orders and everybody was following him, I decided to leave the chair to him. Lo' and behold, the guy never hops in the chair at all! He simply said what he said because "Main Aft is the best place to go if you can hold it." He actually goes off and dies to a skulk, confusing the heck out of the team, and 5 minutes later we finally get someone in the chair to build an IP. In case you're wondering, we lost that game.
Lesson of the story: don't give orders unless you plan to command! Think that goes for all offenders, both those who order people around when a comm is present and when one isn't <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
Playing on the map with sat comm???
The comm got us all to sat comm - built rt then tf with pg.
At which point some Noob starts calling the guy crap for not defending base. The rest just gave the gut a chance - got a pg/ rt / tf at the next hive in a couple of seconds. We held the skullks in fusion back for a couple of min with close support from the comm while we got enongh res for the seige and killed the hive.
One of the best games I played - yet all the time (even when we had seiges on there olny hive) there was a voice in the back ground calling for the comm to be ejected.
The main thing the comm did was keep us together - and keep us informed of what he wants us to do plus what is going on around us. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
Seems the backseat commer has all the power (ejecting) whilst the commander cant do anything.... i should be able to like take lmg's away or something if they dont follow my orders.......
"what have you done to deserve a jetpack?"
"You want to comm or win a game or once?"
"Want me to find out where you live?"
etc...
Worse are people that hijack the CC when you ither move from an oold base to a new, or get out to build a structure when noone is around...
or a reprimand weapon (took away all weapons but knife)
ooh what fun i could have with the douche bags then..... <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
