Devs/CMs -- I challenge you to 1or2 vs 5.

edited October 2014 in PvP Gameplay
title says it all. me, or me and a friend if he joins, would like to fight a 5 man dev/community manager team.

I hope you'll accept the challenge, after all it would be a shame if 5 devs or CMs got stomped by 2 fed escort pilots, flying a now outdated ship.

ps: yeah ric, this is why I've been training in 2v5s this week. :D

Hope the devs/cms accept. :cool:

    eh, well, at least it would't be the humiliation they'd feel losing to a couple of Raptors or BoPs. (Y'know, ships that have been outpaced for two years or so...)

    Trust me, the ship i'm flying is almost as outdated as a Raptor, and is way worse than a BOP.

    Cough cough defiant cough cough :D

    you mad bro? the Defiant's a GOOD ride. Fleet defiant's an even BETTER ride. Try it in a Hegh'ta sometime. You'll really grow to appreciate having shields instead of fervent prayers, hull instead tinfoil, and five Bridge Officers with their traits to stack instead of four. (not to mention three weapons hardpoints in the rear)...and, y'know, more than three tac consoles.

    and unlike the Qin, your Defiant has a workable turn-rate and isn't overburdened by a penalty of excess crew.

    I've been flying every type of ship, from the totally OP XindiScort to a Brel or Hohsus, trust me Defiant is REAL squishy. Still, debs can bring every ship, but I DO NOT FEAR A 5 MAN DEV TEAM on my own! I can take every foe!

    No matter if the Defiant is squishy - with a lame Proton Barrage-Vapesetup you would easily win if there's no decloaker. Give them a decloaker and run forest run.. :P

    And btw you have 5 tac consoles - the defiant is flyable as escort compared to the raptors and the Hegh'ta - I wanna see a fight as escort :D

    Proton vape defant isn't lame - Takes quite a lot of skill, timing and tuning to get it right. :)

    They're not trying to prove they're good. Challenging them is meaningless.

    I can remember some Tyler Durden matches with a Dev a while ago.

    I think it was Brandon back then. ;)

    if they set a 15 minutes limit (cuz after all humans are mortals) you will only have 1 chance to get a kill and if it will end up 0-0 then you don't win.Also if you get all 5 cloaked then good luck getting kills :rolleyes:

    I believe the challenge is to prove who has a better understanding of the product the developers pander to the masses. He wouldn't be the first person to wonder if the developers have a better understanding of this game then the player base. That also applies to PVE. Nothing personal but after watching Smirk play DR content its pretty rational to wonder who really understands the dynamics of this game.

    edit: Yeah, I had the chronology off anyway...damn lack of caffeine. Mea culpa...

    edit2: I don't think I'm using the term chronology right. Damn you, caffeine. Okay, back to DOFFing and trying to have enough Zen to buy a ship tomorrow (stupid upgrade system ate all my Zen - it's so addicting for somebody like me to experience the failgasm that is the upgrade system)...

    edit3: And it's still a flippin' trip the love they gave to the Aquarius, eh? That's still mind boggling. Okay then, back to my war campaign via DOFFs...it's like a really slow turn based strategy game where the results don't matter.

    Lol, put Bort and Hawk in the dev team and let them experience their awesome "balanced" game mechanics firsthand.

    In all fairness and love, lol really now?

    There's a reason it's a popular choice, and it taking a lot of practice to execute isn't one of 'em!:D

    PS: Where would you find five PLAYERS to take you two on, never mind devs? Nothing against anyone, but it would seem like suicide for anyone except well seasoned players.

    Ohhhh.....I GET IT NOW....

    Peace guys!

    well, your not going to the maximum here, i suggest you challenge them with a galaxy retrofit, now that would be interesting and then they might accept the challenge.
    heck you can even do it with a galaxy x if you want... speaking about outdated ship:)
