RustyUK Posted January 9, 2017 Hi Guys, Today might be Blue Monday but I was wondering if the concept of Tactical Tuesday is still live and well at UO? I noticed that the player base and playtime's are somewhat fragmented compared to a few years ago, but it would be great to join you guys for a series of well led and seriously played missions. (perhaps even campaign style like OP Vanguard) Let me know what you guys think. Quote Share this post Link to post

Foxy Posted January 9, 2017 It would be a pleasure for me to be able to play on the weekdays and to see more people connected. Many times I wanna play but nobody is online and frankly I don't know where to play in that case ... Quote Share this post Link to post
Bodei Posted January 9, 2017 Tac Tuesday was great...DR AQUAFRESH, gone but not forgotten....POW MIA Quote Share this post Link to post
Gabe Posted January 9, 2017 (edited) Tac Tuesday was great...DR AQUAFRESH, gone but not forgotten....POW MIA Where is Aqua? If Ratlover comes and leads Mogilevka Deluxe I might reinstall ArmA Edited January 9, 2017 by Gabe Quote Share this post Link to post
Bob Posted January 9, 2017 I am sure that the return of Coinops would seed the server for months to come. Quote Share this post Link to post
Herbiie Posted January 9, 2017 Tac Tuesday was great...DR AQUAFRESH, gone but not forgotten....POW MIA Because the violence of action will solve all problems. Enemy has tanks and you have no AT? VIOLENCE OF ACTION! Heavily outnumbered and surrounded? VIOLENCE OF ACTION! Completely incompetent and unable to lead a alcoholic to the pub nevermind herd the feline masses of UO? VIOLENCE OF ACTION! Quote Share this post Link to post
RustyUK Posted January 9, 2017 Good to hear guys, maybe see some of you tomorrow, I'll be on. Miss the old WAC missions we used to run. Tac Tuesday was great...DR AQUAFRESH, gone but not forgotten....POW MIA He's gone? Quote Share this post Link to post
BonerRus Posted January 9, 2017 I don't know about every week just because I feel like the time in between allows people to plan ahead and gives missions to breathe. Taking the account that weekends do spike up the server pop, we'll be playing the same missions mostly every "Tac Tuesday" as well. Unless the rate of new missions goes up, maybe every 2 weeks or 3 for a well planned event ( such a series of 3 new missions that are within a campaign) might be better for quality and moderation purposes. My 2 cent. Quote Share this post Link to post

Blue Posted January 9, 2017 Great I am down and I dont mind leading or so count me in! Quote Share this post Link to post
Herbiie Posted January 10, 2017 That's correct. I think it used to be every two weeks or so, which regulated well. Pretty sure it was every week. Depends on which interaction of Tactical Tuesday. Don't forget Wactical Wednesday. Quote Share this post Link to post
Sovietpolarbear Posted January 10, 2017 I would love a return of Wac Wednesday and or Tactical Tuesday. It won't t take much to bring them back. We have plenty of Coop mission that feel like WACs on the server and we just we need a regular or two to run the show. Anybody can run TT or WW but a regular is vital because they can quiet down the rabble and ban a guy very quickly. Never forget the days on UO where a GM would mute the entire primary channel and then proceed to unmute leadership for a 60 player WAC mission. Quote Share this post Link to post
Slider Posted January 10, 2017 It was every week and it was great until last couple months of it. It was a Tac Tuesday mission that got me really going in A2. I remember sitting by a road, with platoon of tanks rolling by, while rest of company did other stuff. Great days of 100+ players and 5-10 FPS. Quote Share this post Link to post
PaxJaromeMalues Posted January 10, 2017 We do not need specified dates. Pill and me seeded the server in less than 30 minutes today and had some cool hours of fun with 12-14 players. You only need to be present and make people aware. Poke your steam friend list and add the people from the UO group. (Just do not overdo it, some peps get pissed when you poke them >1 per attention span/evening) Quote Share this post Link to post

This is correct, and I think we can make a good start by all being on, then naturally it will grow. A few people went to the effort of seeding yesterday and it went really well.

Foxy Posted January 10, 2017 I'm working on afternoon shift today and tomorow but you can count me in as soon as I'm off Quote Share this post Link to post
RustyUK Posted January 10, 2017 (edited) Cheers for all the input guys, have condensed the main points below in case staff members/regulars are able to pick up on this. Summary Points: Sessions would work best on a bi-weekly basis, if not longer to allow for good planning/breathing room. Use of the event notification on Steam to provide a quick heads up. (suggestion by Maffa) Presence of regulars would be a great help, not only for order but a greater tactical emphasis.

ratlover232 Posted January 11, 2017 If I have time to learn, I'll make a few WACs. If someone is willing to help with mission design, I'll write OPORDs, help with MTOE etc. Quote Share this post Link to post
