Gunner Competition!

Post by SeeJay »

Hi all.

Even thou the other competition just started, I would like to introduce
a new competition with a "twist" and check if it's interesting to ya all.

The idea was presented to me by Avenger. Thanks mate.

At this stage I would just like to get some feedback to see if it's worth
the time to set it up.

The competition itself would be similar to the ongoing EFC competition.

The twist is that this would be a team fight were 1 is pilot and 1 is gunner.
Only the gunner is allowed to shoot.
This eliminates the use of missiles/CM's and opens up to really close
maneuvering/firing since the gunner can only use Particle/Laser weapons.

This opens up to allow new pilots to have a fair go if they hook up with
an experienced pilot.

How does this sound to you all?

Actually, idea is very cool. Thanks to Avenger for this. But very difficult as well. I mean, "only gunner is allowed shooting" part, finding it a little difficult to get use to it...

But overall, very different style of dogfight, could be so much fun..

The idea came to me after I helped a few new players out with combat training and let them be a gunner first.

This is a nice opertunity to have a competition that will involve the new generation of players as well so they will (hopefully) interact more with the old crowed.

Sounds good and will promote further a nice feature that is probably a bit underrated in the game.

Me and Marvin ofted used a gunship (ship+turret) when assaulting cap ships and results were brilliant.
