Thread: hunting!!!!

Im writting this post as a noob so please take it with a grain of salt but i think i have a pretty good grasp on things.

why is it that when there have been a set of rules that have been in place for a while, and those said set of rules have been reformatted to conduce a better gaming enviroment that everyone feels that it is a free for all to hunt? so that i am clear i am talking about rule #3 from the Tactical Gamer Primer:

3) Support game play in a near-simulation environment. Where the focus of play would not be solely on doing what it takes to win, but doing so utilizing real-world combat strategy and tactics rather than leveraging exploits provided to players by the design of the game engine, regardless of the level of advantage, if any, it gives over the opposing team.

i have not seen us use any of the fireteams that are available to us, i have not heard a constructive plan yet, and i have not seen team play. yes i can have the finger pointed at me, but ive only been playing this game for three days and would expect, especially with this mod, more team play than i do.

so why is it that when there have been no boundaries that people feel the necessity to kill hunt?? now i know with the whole map being open takes a little time to get used to by watching your back for the TACTICAL FLANK, but there comes a time to where your not protecting your objective.

there have been many times that my team has had the chance to plant the bomb only to try a tactic to sit in a building outside of spawn to catch the supposed "recon patrol" of the opposing team only to find out the the ENTIRE team came to spawn to kill us. yes the tactic of us sitting in spawn is not the smartest idea, but when the majority of the other team is only wanting to FLANK you want to try and do something about those kill hunters, and on another quick note for those who love to flank right off the bat, is there some special recon perk that i do not know about that tells you where the other team is at so that it allows you to start you flank immediately??

now i heard Krag say that it could be a "patrol" but if im correct that means that they have their base (bomb sites) secure with a good defensive perimeter and a patrol consists of 2 people not the whole damn team.

Tactical Gamer requires teamwork because only through working as a team can we complete the objectives we are assigned. The reward for winning through superior strategy and tactics is far greater than the reward for winning through exploitation and oppression.

i get pissed when i get killed by someone who HAS to flank or just looking to up their kill count. in the last three days that i have played this i have seen TWO proper flanks WHEN they should have taken place and the result of that was a win. when you are by yourself "flanking" how is that playing with the team?

now if im off base please tell me to shut up and i will, but it seems to me that a lot of our community in the COD games just does not get the whole teamwork idea. i would like to have a constructive argument over this because maybe im the one who does not get (but i think that i do) the tactical play here in the COD titles but I DO KNOW that the mod that is in place now is the mod that i have been wanting for the COD titles and i think it is a shame if we let something like this slip away b/c stupidness
