Eras Yesterday

[Darklis]

Just wanted to say a few points after comments like this :-

Your Surs defence failed cause you have too many solo/group players who are incapable of working well in organised situations, whether by lack of leadership or by elitism I don't know, but trying to blame others for your own inadequacy, something you should be used to by now Araudry

Well I was leading the BG attacking Erasleigh yesterday and we failed due to a couple of reasons.

Lag. The lag was absolutely insane round there, even more so after we stormed to inner keep, on the first run we lost fully half the bg to LD. The defending hibs then sensibly emerged and wiped our reeling forces.

Shrooms. Not sure, but think the lag got a lot worse when we got inside keep. I'm not saying it's due to the shrooms that appeared but I think that they didn't exactly help matters.

Annoying though, when we were doing so well to have major battles determined by LD's or more correctly who doesn't LD.

I do take exception to that quote tho VidX, some albs work hard at working in a team, and some of the RvR guilds' players (yes I mean PE here) have been a brilliant help in keep re-claiming.

However, the BG at Eras did great, followed orders and were doing a fine job yesterday. Nerf LAG!

And Usp, stop shooting my lil cleric wif your ewul treb-o-doom!

i am sure Albs can cooperate together. Problem nowadays with NF is the Incredible LAG, whenever you logon to ANY NF Zone, Freezing for 3 aseconds every 15 seconds or so just unplayable.

We were on a ML7 raid or else we would zerg you with one thousand shroomz m8! hrhr

 

[Rami]

Well I'm one of the lucky ones who doesn't connect to the game through OT so I had an absolute ball last night at Erasleigh. My baby cleric Chanticleer was continually fighting for about 8 hours and earned around 15k RPs which is something that would never have happened in OF.
The fighting was good too, a lot of good leadership on both sides, good tactics and clever use of terrain. As Darklis says it's a shame that the lag played such an instrumental part - I think if the raid hadn't LDed en masse when we first stormed the breach in Erasleigh we'd have had a good shot at retaking the keep.

Well defended though Hibbies, at one point we had your backs to the wall and that was a great moment. One of the truly epic sieges so far in my experience.

Great Avatar Chretien

totaly off subject so sorry...

 

[Frozenheart]

had a total blast at eras ... was fun dying to a few hibs, letting albs know where i died then see the hibs panic when they see the full force, hehehe

albs did extremely well when the mids came to help the hibs (as usual) and grats to hibs for defending well <cute luwis!>

Love frosty!

xxxxxxx

hahaha, yea we share the same /alliancechat, didn't you know?

Oh well, if you can't beat them, make up all kind of stories!

 

[Falukropp]

To albs defense, shrooms still do their job no matter how laggy it is as they're server controlled.

If you touch my keep again you will die....hard

I'll consider it a date!

aye albs werent badly organised, we even set up an archer cg, just lagg/shrooms=death to albies. Especially when we stormed into keep and had like over half the raiding albs go ld, wasnt fun.

 

[Evul]

Tbh, Hibs would of killed you all with 2-3fg's at the Lord, and we would of pwned if rangers /assisted each other and inside of 4-5 Rangers using seige used there bow, To be honest I have to admit that albs are better at /assisting with there bower's then hib's

Yesterday was bad, was l/d and lagging constantly, in the end gave up for the night, just glade it wasnt that bad when i was raiding.

 

[Jobil]

the problem we have in alb is that the peeple capable of leading any sort of raid are usually not bothered with trying to shout louder than all the would-be leaders. often being in a bg is pointless because you have some 12 year nub shouting incoherent bs...
when one of the "naturals" finally get the word we tend to do pretty good by alb standards

 

[Frozenheart]

Everyone could see ...... mids got boat to kill albs, left hibs alone ...... albs killed mids ..... albs killed hibs .... rinse and repeat!

suppose its hard to find out what/who is killing u when u run away so much, like eras t3 last nite 2-3fg hibs chased and killed 5-6fg albs... was funny... and lag was bad server wide last nite

 

[Straef]

I got poo rps at eras, such a waste of time -.-

 

[Boggy]

Well done Darklis. Taking the keep is not so much a measure of how you perform as the general responsiveness of the BG. You can't win them all, but if as you say you managed to get a BG working pretty well, that's a success.

 

[Frozenheart]

funny jupiter, considering there was only 30 in our bg and 64 enemies
