Thread: Hard Core, Old School Commando's... why not move to one server and play together?

*responding to messages one by one*


This is what I think we should do. Find a server that is almost always forgotten or not thought of. Me, personally, I never hear anything about Scylla. So I say we all go there, and we chose a faction. I believe, honestly, that since Mandalorians are the "Super Commandos" and Commandos would be the lesser Mandalorians, that we should be rebel, because mandalorians hate the empire atm.


"Before you explode (*snicker*) here's why: We can play either side. Big pvp about to happen? we find which side needs fighters and just join it. Next day it might be the other faction that needs combatants. The whole point is to have fun. Rebel/Imperial it doesnt matter really. "


This would probably make a bit more sense, seeing as Mandalorians became mercenaries. But I still stand by rebel, but I won't mind neutral. Also, if we stayed neutral, we wouldn't be able to wear any awesome Rebel Assault Armor

But nothing wrong with Bria, I just think, if what people are saying, that there is a LOT of pvp stuff, we are screwed. I have 512 mb ram because Asus motherboards suck and wont upgrade.

Well, because it isnt too dificult, i say we do BOTH: lets set up an organization on bria, where we will certainly have an impact, and for those people who just cant link up to bria, we will pick the most deserted server and all start fresh characters there. it will take more time to build the assets to run a good guild on that server, so that will be the most playable one, but in case of large events we can all jump on bria and terrorize the populous as a legion of DOOM!


if this is an acceptable solution, i will need a few people with available lots to link up with me so we can throw down the bria guildhall (im thinking on corillia as its pretty much the central system).


stand by for a post on the other server.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!



Once they surrender to us, we take over their country and form our very own Commando Nation. You think the Europeans are a little paranoid about Germany? Wait til they get a load of us!

I dislike Bria because it is a large server. A large server doesn't need more people. Lets all just go to a small empty one. Kauri or some wierd server no one remembers. We can all grow together, and help eachother out. No one will be better off then anyone else. That would be better. Plus, running 2 is a deathtrap. You'd spread us out to far.






Hey now... Kauri pride over here! lol I've got 3 characters on that server!


So is Bria the choice, or are we pickinga server that doesn't see a lot of traffic? I'm bored at work, and I wanna get a character made up!

On avacant type server since it would be easier to find land and we wouldn't seem like the "little guys" for so long. Also, that's less competition for loot and resources and stuff.That said,it would be harder to give ourselves a big name on a less populous server. I imagine that if we make a big impact on a big server maybe the devs would notice us more? It would be tough, but might be worth the effort. Also, I'd love the idea of burninating droves of Jedi, and on a less popular server there are less Jedi. But maybe that's a good thing?


Anyways, a guild of Commandos on one server has a better chance of affecting our profession than scattered Commandos. So maybe we should pick a server with that in mind? Hey Starnick, which server would give us the best chance to do this?

Ahazi is a pretty big sized server, but I know people who can help us out. There are few commando here, and I know people who sell armor and such cheap. I have cash to supply a few commando, and I have about 300 weapons in storage to hand out, pre commando and commando. So Ahazi may be a choice. Vade is a Master Commando/Master Weaponsmith, so he could help do weapons for a fair price, and Joplin sells good armor at 250k (8000+ Kinetic assault), and faction at 500k. So I know people who can help us start.


But I still say we should start on a small server. If we do something on a medium sized server, we will be noticed, and the people who lag a lot will still be able to function. So, a server in the middleground, like Gorath or something? Not sure if Gorath is huge, but I know it isn't forgotten.

I think it's Tacwraith's idea, and he should get to decide using advice he sees here and from Starnick.

This has great potential, but please give the guy what he deservers for bring us together.

My suggestion:

A server with light traffic where we all start out together, grow together and fight together, all the way up. Some players are capable of doing credit trades, and that would be helpful. The rest of us can grind it out like we always have. A light server will mean more people can join in, regardless of connection speed, and everything can feel they have a fair playing field with the rest of the group.

This is us simply saying what we think.


I believe Bria would be an extremely bad idea if you want to unite us.



Also to add.. to unite us, you can't be headstrong about "I am the leader" We need to try and get everyone to agree. I will go to Bria if nessesary, but I will think it is a bad idea. When you get to the point where you are trying to unite people with an iron fist, on a game, it won't work.

I disagree with Bria for the size factor.


Though myDSL sometimes craps out when I find an overly populated area, I'm more worried about the members of our community that are on 56k. Bria would probably be an absolute hell for them in terms of handling/loading all the data that would be coming through their connection.


I'm seriously for one of the Euro servers, or one of the lesser-used US servers. It may be amajor pain in the assto get a guild going there since we'd *all* probably be noob characters, but we can just pool our money to buy the hall.


I agree that a big server would be an ideal place to establish ourselves and become much more visible to everyone that isn't a commando, and I'm all for that.


There are pros and cons to both big and small servers that absolutely have to be weighed carefully.

I have Cable, and I run good, but my problem is I have 512mb ram. I have another 512 chip, but Asus motherboards blow since they released the set that doesnt let the second ram slot accept ram. So now I am screwed in big places.


I think a medium server as a compromise. My problem with a europe server is the time lag from those in the US.It would be hard to organize events with other guilds..

I agree that the European servers may pose a lag issue for some users, so we ought to look into a smallerUS server.


in looking at the Galaxy forums for each server, Wanderhome, Naritus and Scylla seem to have the least amount of activity. Tempest, Shadowfire, Intrepid, Lowca, Starsider and Radiant have a medium amount of activity.


Keep in mind that these numbers don't accurately reflect the population of the server, but it may be used as a basis for our choice.


Just trying to offer some input.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm


No one has mentioned Test-Center..........


It would be a great place for us all to get together and from a massive Commando guild.


Everything is cheep

Few Jedi

Kind People

Wont take to much time away from play on other charictures (when TC is down we could play on our old charictures)

Few Jedi

More DEV notice

Testing Commando Changes

Few Jedi



However, I will get my Shipwright Pumping out some components to sell so that if we do go to another server I might be able to Bank roll it some with, oh lets say about 5-10 mil?


However, I Love my charictures on Bloodfin and Love my firends there so I will be playing 2/3 on BF and 1/3 on what ever server we go to. (unless the Flamers Leigon gets to fun [toying with names for commando guild])
