Everything that lucky said makes a lot of sense.

I'm old so my twitch skills really aren't up to speed as many of the other talented players in the BF2 community. Therefore I specialize as medic when playing BF2. I try to stay off the frontlines and engage only when necessary or when ordered to. I focus on keeping people alive and I do an okay job of it so medic is my preferred role. One of the great things about BF2 at TG is the teamwork of organized squads. A good medic is equally as valuable as a ripping assaulter. If you are consistently getting owned at assault think about specializing with a support role like medic, support or engineer.

On a more tangible side--Come play our own BF2 mod called Tac Mod or the newly released Project Reality Mini Mod. They run on Tuesday's and Thursdays. We also run a custom modded Call of Duty 2 server that has regularly scheduled games on Wednesday's and Sundays. Both the BF2 and COD2 mods reward the cautious player and squad and promote tight teamwork and small unit tactics. You are welcome to join up with a 1st MIP squad if you see any slots open. The first MIP focuses on using standard operating procedures within an Alpha/Bravo fire team environment. Or course this requires mature gamers who are amenable to following orders and playing an assigned kit during games.

There are many many skilled Squad Leaders within the TG community, including Lucky. Like he said, hooking up with one of them can be the best way to learn by assimilation. And besides--here at TG score is less important than solid game play.


Don't worry--it's okay to play on pubbies. Many TG'ers do. I'd hazard a guess that after spending significant time on a TG server your performance on a pubbie server will increase dramatically.

Welcome and hope to see you around more.
