Expectations of GRAW players at TG.

[Apophis]

I'm going to get this out of the way nice and early so there's no room for confusion.

Ghost Recon has a special place here at Tactical Gamer and we have expections that FAR exceed many other games.

• ALL players are expected to read and abide by the SOPs posted in the Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter SOP forum.
• This is *NOT* a rush-to-fight game at Tactical Gamer.
• Expect slow and methodical gameplay.
• Expect the game to be very difficult. And DON'T expect there to be respawns.
• Keep comms clear and concise.

If you find yourself deserting your team, ignoring orders, and trying to treat this game like some fast-paced FPS, you should expect to see yourself removed from the game and from TeamSpeak.

When it comes to Ghost Recon, we couldn't be MORE serious about these rules and the application of the philosophy behind Tactical Gamer. Just because you can grab a sniper rifle and rush to the front-lines in another game doesn't mean it's going to be even REMOTELY tolerated in GRAW.

Thanks for your time.

I always enjoyed it on the GR server when I got to tell a pubbie: "If your inability to work with the team becomes a liability to the rest of the team I will authorize someone to TK you."

Yeah, it's one of the only games at TG where the actions or refusal to follow orders by a SINGLE person can jeopardize the mission for every other player in the game. I won't hesitate to give that order if someone goes off reservation and doesn't stick the the commanders orders.

Amen to both of you. I read those GR sops once a week just to make sure i am following. I dont think alot of players are understanding the quality of game play GR has at TG. Ive only started playing for maybe 3 weeks, or a few more. Listening to some of these players on TS its really interesting, gonna be alot of sad and lonely players if they break these rules.

Im all for supporting ever single run in place for GR.

The other being Natural Selection, which will nicely suit those of you looking for GR-caliber teamplay in a fast, difficult, and methodical environment.

Think of GRAW as slow gameplay on fast computers and Natural Selection as fast gameplay on slow computers.

I don't know if I would compare the two in this manner. In any case, this thread is about expectations in our GR environment. Please keep it on-topic.

Ready to roll Chief!

Sounds great. Looking forward to seeing this game in action at TG.

Apo, you just described a world that might even tempt me away from WoW from time to time.

You need to get into GRAW before I do, beep, so that I can repeat my "first round of Ghost Recon ever and I just TK'd beep in the back of the head point blank" tradition. :/

Or not.

I can't wait!!

LOL...I had forgotten about that... Yep...Beep the old hand taken out by a TK from his new teammate...arrggghhh!!!

I'll probably try to find a copy of the game this weekend and see if my rig can handle it. It's getting creaky after 3 years, but I want to wait until this fall when there's more to be known about Conroe and AM2....

Agreed. Teamwork is the key.

Good bump bubba. I don't think most people realize how serious apophis is about the GR rules and game play at TG. Make sure you read the SOPs for GR and GRAW. Without them you wont appreciate the game

Yeah, I don't want to see people grabbing sniper rifles and rushing to the front, only to die in 2 minutes and then complain because there are no respawns and they have to wait 43 minutes until the next round. They aren't going to get much sympathy.
