Commanders and their stupidity.

[catziggy]

I have seen threads on other forums about Timeless admins who kick Commanders because they move the titan somewhere stupid or not at all.
Heres proof why commanders should get with the flow and move the titan as close to the centre of the battlefield as soon as possible. Sadly i joined at the end of the game so wasn't able to prevent this going on.
In an average Titan game scores of over 100 are possible EASILY because.

1. Titan gunners get lots of kills. Likewise people can shoot titan guns and get their pins and likewise people can repair titan guns and get points.
2. You can pod to ANY silo. Spawn on the titan, pod down straight away. No need to wait or risk travelling in jeeps etc. This makes for a furious game to try to win the silos. Kill one guy and next thing he lands on your head. Respawn in the titan, pod down and land on his. (Dodge the titan gun bombardment as well) This makes for lots of kills and silo captures.

MOST IMPORTANT
3. You can pod from one titan to another. Loads of titan fights. 2 Points for an attacker if they kill 2 points for a defender if they kill.

This is the way Titan games should be. Manic if you want it, slower if your not able to have lightning reflexes. Timeless servers offer everyone equal oppurtunities to get their scores up.

Image 1 is the position of the EU titan DOH
Image 2 shows the state of play i.e. EU losing badly PAc have and hold all silos. Note the PAC commander wisely stayed central so his team could cover all the silos and pod to them.
Image 3 is the scores. Look how measly they are. Nobody got a high score that game.

If you see people moan about Timeless admins kicking commanders who act like this tell them about this thread please :)

When a commander move the the Titan too a place who looks crazy is sometimes a good idea.

I will tell you why:

on some maps when a titan is outside the fight area the other team cannot use apc´s too jump on it the only way too bring the soldiers on the titan is then the heli or a beacon on top.

i have played some rounds where the commander win the game with this crazy looking tactic.sure you cannot use the pods too come too the silos but when the squads are good and put beacons on the silos it is a very good tactic because it is hart for the other teams too controll the silos and attack the titan in the same moment.

i know by myself 3 places where only heli´s can use too come on the titan.

so think about it!!;)

Until the shields are up I move the titan in a place near the other or near silos. Before the shields go down I move it to a place where the other team can't enter our titan easily. This only works if ur team is good and u are on the winning side.

LOLZ ASH....

I can partly agree here... The screenshot shows titan way out west and as an early commander, i too did this exact same thing and won the game.
I do now disagree with this move as when a few good squads do get to the titan, they will leave beacons you cant do anything about and before you know it you're losin consoles.
BUT !! this game play is from ashoofs site farty-pants.com in suez as all the regulars will agree, you gotta stick titan between 3 silos or other titan will and other team will essentially dominate the map and win by silos alone, so they got no need to attack this titan looking for Niagra falls. ;)

Hi...

I totally agree to Catziggys posting - im always watching the movement of the Titans and someone whos moving the Titan in the last corner of the Map gets kicked.....for me no discussion...its not the first Time we discuss this and im in Fear that it its not the last Time....

At the end of the day we want high scores and points and to have fun. Not much fun travelling three quarters of the map to get to the enemy titan only to be blasted as soon as you get through the door. Likewise not much fun in waiting 10 minutes in defending the consoles waiting for a small group of people to arrive just to get killed by whosevers apm mine gets them first and then waiting another ten minutesfor the enxt one(unless as mentioned some bright spark leaves a squad beacon) lol.

Stick the titans close together in the middle of the map and lets make mayhem
GAME ON!

Party all round for everyone if titans are in middle of map. Which is why Timeless suez 11 (AND) Timeless 2 are so popular. 95 games outta 100, you will see titans near center of map lookin at silos 4 and 5. There is a reason for this and all the regulars will agree. ;)
