Members Ssnake Posted January 9, 2008 Members Share Posted January 9, 2008 Read it here. Job well done! I'd like to see more like these over at SimHQ. More coverage over the past months has increased our PE sales figures a bit which probably means that you're seeing more people to play with here as well. At least that's the theory. If you're posting AARs, SimHQ players who don't come here might want to get in touch with you as well, so I guess it's a win-win situation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgehog Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Yeah just reading it, Zip is quite the novelist isn't he?Which is always a good thingPlus the pretty pictures (simple things please simple minds, i'm not simple, just bored, and tired) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greengriffon Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 That AAR was great. I think I picked up a few tactical tips just by reading it.I just bought the sim a couple of weeks ago, and would really like to try multiplayer, but I'm worried that my newbie status might put my team at a disadvantage.I'm not a complete hack and do manage to rack up some kills before I inevitably catch a sabot with my face. However I think practicing with a group might be a good way to learn the ropes, not to mention tremendous fun.Does anyone have any tips for getting started with an organized multiplayer session like this? Are there any "newb-friendly" virtual units?Thanks,GG 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tacbat Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Yeah just reading it, Zip is quite the novelist isn't he?Agreed 100%. He can also write a very entertaining scenario briefing which reads more like a good book. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zipuli Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Griffon, The best way to learn is by trying! Hop in to SB TeamSpeak channel, and join a game with few poeple and there you go! If you are not very certain of your skills, a COOP scenario is a good starter. When you got your confidence up, then go for head to head and kick some ass and get yours kicked . I know many players who actually play COOP most the time and enjoy head to head less. And for encouragement, this community is one of those you can ask stuff from and they won't keep the info just for themselves as seen in few other communities (trying to keep advantage over other players to look cool etc.)! Also if you bump into me sitting in the in-game red or in-game blue -channels in the SB Teamspeak I usually am hosting a free-for-all session, so you are more than welcome to join! Zip P.S. Thanks guys for your kind words and ability to see past all those typos and language errors I try to write a bit more often in future too - last one I did was in 2006... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, GG Just hop in The SB-people seem to be very friendly and helpful to newbies. Personally, I'm no professional tanker and like the COOPs most, but the occassional HTH is nice too (getting ass kicked 90% of the time teaches some humility :biggrin: ) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honcho Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I'm thinking about writing some AARs in english with screenshots (SimHQ would be nice location), I hope eSim does not sue me for writing AARs that are much more mediocre than Zipuli's great ones Perhaps you'll get a noticeable dip in sales if I write something? :biggrin: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted January 11, 2008 Author Members Share Posted January 11, 2008 I think it's bad karma to sue customers. Other industries may think differently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honcho Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Well, perhaps I might risk it then. Just had to ask as I also think it's bad karma to be sued by developers... :biggrin: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
