BF4 or BF3 - The poll is back again!

Re: BF4 or BF3 - The poll is back again!
I agree with everything ID said.
Also, think about this. We'd be the only community running an organized 32vs32 Battlefield 3, or even, Battlefield campaign. There's a bunch of old BF3 players that are either just casually pubbing it or have stopped playing Battlefield entirely simply because of BF4 being disappointing to say the least. The BF3 dogfighting is still going strong, there's a bunch of people who play random 2v2/5v5/8v8 scrims every day and I bet they'd be very interested in playing with larger numbers.
LevelBF tried to start a BF4 32vs32 campaign which inevitably failed afaik, 21CW are wrapping up their 48th campaign tomorrow and I'm pretty sure that campaign is pretty dead in terms of numbers aswell. There's a lot of people who wants to play organized 32's and actully have fun but there's no community out there who delivers it.
The only thing I see possibly hindering this is if the gun glitch would occur. But I bet if some of us could chip in a few bucks we'd easily get enough money to rent a server for at least a month to try this. If it fails, I bet Insurgency would be very fun to play organized while we wait for "Squad" or Venice Unleashed to finish up.

Re: BF4 or BF3 - The poll is back again!
Well, "We", Crooked, are members of the community who have been around here for quite some time, and would like to voice their opinions and suggestions from time to time.

If you have something constructive to suggest let's hear it out. Otherwise, just continue sitting, take a deep breath and relax. I certainly wouldn't like you to throw another disappearing act before the campaign starts.

Why do you think I left in the first place? When I said I needed a break from the community, I meant it, and that situation has not improved in the mean time.RazY70 wrote:I certainly wouldn't like you to throw another disappearing act before the campaign starts.

Replaying to this thread is all the 'decision making' we are able to do.CrookedBarrel wrote:actually signing up and getting involved in making decisions.
After all its up to the Exec-TA (active execs occupying TA role) and the two generals.
What they decide is what will happen and there's little we can do about it beside trying to sway their opinions this or the other way in this thread or in the secret TA forums or TS.

Re: BF4 or BF3 - The poll is back again!
Might I suggest a new poll?
A) I would be up to playing both bf3 and bf4 (if it can be done)
B) I would play either, but lean more towards bf3
C) I would play either, but lean more towards bf4
D) I would only play bf3
E) I would only play bf4
As it stands, the current poll proved that some of us (myself included) wouldn't mind playing 3, but it's very inexact for the issues being discussed.

Re: BF4 or BF3 - The poll is back again!
Just to update everyone really quick:
First of all, nothing has been set in stone regarding which game(s) we are going to be playing at this point. A couple things need to happen before this is decided. First, we need Rob or whoever else to let us know if we can setup the draft in such a way that we can determine who wants to play which game. If that is possible, then we can look at the possibility of having a dual game campaign. If that is the case, then we will likely put up a poll to gauge the community's interest in something like that. If it is not possible, then it's fairly likely that we will move forward with a BF4 campaign. This is the result of today's meeting and if I've said something in error, I welcome Insanity or whoever else to correct me.

Using the free comment box in the draft form is not good enough?CognitoCon wrote:First, we need Rob or whoever else to let us know if we can setup the draft in such a way that we can determine who wants to play which game.

Re: BF4 or BF3 - The poll is back again!
We would need to make sure every single person stated their game preference, which is unlikely unless they are prompted. Also, the lack of formatting would be somewhat of a nuisance.

Re: BF4 or BF3 - The poll is back again!
Is it going to matter?
Remind me how accurate that attendance check list is?
Cus as far as i remember the claim was that check list was anything but reliable.
How a game preference check list will be any different?
Using a google doc may require a bit more manual work for connecting users with their preference, but it shouldn't be a deal breaker.
In case its not possible to add it to the draft form that is.

Re: BF4 or BF3 - The poll is back again!
Knowing your attendance for the next 6 weeks is a bit different from knowing which games you own/play. A google doc might work, but I'm not sure if everyone involved wants to juggle 2 different forms and so forth.
Re: BF4 or BF3 - The poll is back again!
So I've been hanging out on the sidelines (way too busy IRL to be completely active), but I read the New Posts and Threads every day.
Just wanted to chip-in that through all the heat, this would be best if you can update that poll.
