I'm thinking we need to put together a squad for this!.. Seas can be the human shield!:D

I can't see that working particularly well.

I'm a pretty two dimensional character.

If I turn sideways you will have nothing much to hide behind.

I can run.

But I can't hide.

Unless (as mentioned) I turn sideways


We'd be awesome... !!

Vamps, Knuckles, Ribbs, and 'Seas - what a fantastic squad!

You guys are going to have a blast!

My interest is piqued and I'm wondering how many ATAG members are putting squads together for this.

Question: Do we even need a specific Squad. or just a designated team speak Chanel or will Post Scriptum have its own in game comms?

I think our biggest hurdle is time zone differences. We never get to fly together so I'm not sure how we could team up in this game..haha @ Knuckles... I don't think you have to have a squad but it will help.

Hi Sconsey,

I don't know about 'fantastic' being the word to use. Haha!

Although I do believe Seas is practicing his special 'Ninja' technique in readiness.

Are you looking to get PS then Sconsey? :thumbsup:

I think it will later rather than sooner.

The Devs are upgrading from 'Offworld Core A10' to 'Core A11' and experiencing some probs. Vehicle behaviour has become unpredictable and some players have experienced FPS drop.

I do believe the fourth weekend in May has been mentioned. This is 26th/27th, so 28th might be right. :thumbsup:

Question: Do we even need a specific Squad. or just a designated team speak Chanel or will Post Scriptum have its own in game comms?

The basic setup is based around a 9 man squad.

1 x Sqauad leader. (Sten gun)

6 x Riflemen. (Lee Enfield No.4) or 4 x Riflemen, 2 x Bren gunners?

2 x Medics. (Lee Enfield No.4/Pistol)?

Alternatively the squad could just have one medic and have a Light AT man with a PIAT (Projectile Infantry Anti-Tank).

One of the Riflemen might also carry a Grenade Launcher attachment for his Lee Enfield.

I think there has to be a certain number of squads in game before any Armoured team can be formed.

Have a look and see what you like. If someone has experience of 'Squad' they might be a good pick for Squad Leader.

As for comms I don't know if PS uses TS or Discord in game. Anybody know? :thumbsup:

Can you lone wolf it as a bit of an idiot?

It's just that I've been practicing...



Edit:

Tell you what.

I will bring the sandwiches.

I've got powdered egg and cress or... erm... plain cress.

Hello, Vamps,

I've prepurchased but getting on a squad is another matter. Reserve me a place. I'll take on any position but I'm not ready for leader!

I see the weekend's playtest has been compromised due to Offworld A11 upgrade complications. Do you think it will be released before the end of May?

I don't know how comms are going to work. Teamspeak, Discord, or ingame?

Has anyone here used Discord?

I don't think anyone is going to be ready for Seas - he's a very resourceful individual. His 'Ninja' technique sounds interesting. Is that the one in which he turns sideways and takes on the appearance of Eva Braun? :D

Lone wolfing is my forte but a one-man squad isn't going to cut the mustard! :D

I read they do have Voice over IP..with proximity decrease..or something like that. The closer you are the louder and vice versa. Sounds cool. I'm going to have to recruit some NA brethren..to fight along side or I will be Lone wolfing it I think.. haha

I have about 50 hours in "Squad" and a bunch more in "Project Reality" (what Squad was based on, similar game.) Not an expert but if I get PS I'll be happy to be a squad leader if you want.

ATAG_Ribbs
May-20-2018, 22:35
And you're close to my time zone! :thumbsup:

BOO
May-21-2018, 12:36
Can I play too?

As part of the British contingent.

I had a nice (read very glinty) pistol for Seas to wave as a (very temporary) leader.

Another tactic id like to develop (other than sending Seas to see what all the louds bangs are about) is the "Don't put that tent there" tactic. It totally pre-occupied the Nazi at Duxford last year so I'm reasoning it may have a similar effect on his grandad....allowing us to sneak round the back as he diligently patrols the area on his bike.....

look forward to having you Boo ,Certainly hope that because we are discussing putting a "Squad" together. that people think its an ATAG only thing cause it certainly isn't just as our server. is not just an ATAG thing

Without sounding overly schmaltzy about stuff the tag in front of the names in this forum I'm almost blind to. I just see a bunch of decent chaps and chappesses.

I think anyone would be hard pushed to call ATAG a closed group or elitist for sure!! (although they never let me in even though I sent Lewis flowers and pictures of his name carved into my arm with a fountain pen (bonus point if you can get the song that's ripped from) every day until the regrettable court order)

Played lots of Arma, had Squad installed for a long time but never really had time for it since I bought it. Can hardly find time to fly a wee bit these days but try keep my ear to the ground.

Been keeping an eye on PS though, it has the potential to be pretty darn cracking.

I've been absent from the sky for more weeks than i care to count....

Ive just watched an explanation of "Offensive" and the rules.

I had what I call a "Brian Cox"

Its that point where you know all the words that are being said but can no longer understand the sentences they are forming...

The overall impression im left with is that i will die and be shouted at a lot.

Now... everybody gather round.

Pink wafer anyone? no?...

Tiffin?


OK... so... the enemy are over here... represeneted by this packet of Jammie Dodgers

and this is us here, reperesented by these macaroons.

so... when I say "Talley Ho!" you must all follow me at your best run, towards the Jammie Dodgers and try not to get your nuts shot of.

Now simmer down simmer down... !

Mental note: Next time use french fancies for us instead of macaroons.

and....

TALLEY HO !!!!

Jamie Dodgers are a two layer biscuit (cookie to you) with a jam (ruberised strawberry paste in this particular case) layer between the two.

A macaroon is a small biscuity cake made from a baked almond paste typically adorned with a lone almond on top.

As a former colonial "volunteer" in the Royal Highseas Bullet Catching Regiment you have no need to burden yourself with such detail. All you need to know is that you'll be up front, standing bolt upright and straining your ears to follow orders shouted from an unseen and distant location most of the time...

I simply must instist that you put yourself forward for the Army's "Cake Buscuit and Sweetmeats" examination.

We need chaps like you in the ranks. Eh?!

Yes, sir!

But the medical worries me somewhat.

Despite that, I have complete confidence that I will be found suitable by the various interviewing boards of the Cake, Biscuit, and Sweetmeats Connoisseurs for acceptance into the biscuit assault squad.

Yes, sir!
