A More Sensible Approach

Tried yet another technique of blending-in battlerecorder footage this week and another filefront.com full download is available from here and for an additional treat, here is the battlerecorder demo right here. Enjoy :)

Also, if you need more footage to get your squadplay fix, check out DirtyLude's (TheDirty) Squadplay vids - Good communication and good gameplay, gotta love it :)

Now, down to business - BTW, the sound levels should be proper this week ;)

So, here we are again at good old Gibraltar - have I ever had a bad round on this map?

We hold a stiff defense at the eastern entrance. We are successful at holding them off for a bit but inevitably we hear "an outpost is lost", and it's time to skedaddle. I order my spawning members to spawn at EU base in order to hold off the attackers from taking out our assets.

We move in on central camp across the ramp and take the flag with no incident. We then move to ruin with a bit more difficulty. I run into an unfortunate circumstance but am revived at central camp. The flag goes neutral and I move in to help finish the cap. We clean up the remaining resistance. Somehow my drone winds up teamkilling a squad memeber - I hate it when it does that.

We move back towards toll station. Simpson takes the lead on our approach. I hastily run forward at toll station only to get killed by a friendly grenade. When I respawn I decide to take the "hard way". I am reminded why I refer to it as the hard way as I run directly into the middle of the enemy :P

At this point I decide to take a "more sensible approach" along the east side. Unfortunately this approach is not necessarily a more successful approach.

At this point we run into a tenacious couple enemies, but are able to take them down. Since I am in the position, I decide to take the upper walkways. It's a pretty painless approach to harbor, actually. Toll station goes down, but I decide that harbor is the better flag to take.

We move up to harbor, encountering stiff resistance upon arrival. My first attempt at the flag is thwarted, a few moments later my second attempt is also unsuccessful and I am killed by an APM. Fortunately I am revived and wind up with a krylov kit after revive.

Finally a third attempt on the flag works and I place the defend order. The squad intelligently spreads out to cover more ground.

At the end I encounter a new and weird bug where the squad completely disbanded/disappeared. I recreate the squad, but only four original members realize to join before the round's end. Still, with only 4 people on the squad we nonetheless take first place squad.
