View Full Version : Op War Tactics
Since we are bored (terra being down and all)
we might as well talk shit on the forum.
What posts really interest me is op wars.
My clan has never really been part of many
We occasionally took one and tried to hold it for as long as we can.
Can some experenced op fighters put down tactics to taking and holding an op and
maybe even writing down some op fights that happened and describe how they wree fought and what won or lost it for them.
Would be good to read and pass the time

the best tactic is experience and good team work. Comes down to who works better as a team. Also being decent at PvP does help.

1. debuff PPU
2. everyone kill PPU
3. debuff APU's
4. everyone kill APU's
5. debuff / kill all others (dependin if their buffs have run anyway)
5. hack / sex / spam trade
that seems the usual op war practice

A clan needs to have TeamSpeak or Ventrilo imo, theres no substitute for co-ordination over voice.
outnumber ur enemy, flame him on tradechannel, call him n00b, zerg etc...
looks like this is a very popular tactic on terra...

yesh, outmonk ur opponent
hehe i remember back in the day(long time before my merc/Bd of fighting days)when it was small clans op fighting and no/few ppus, it was more like buff up and rush in, pick a target and take it down.
no real art to it lol, used to win 50/50 that way as well :D
once you take the op it was basically camp the GR and the entrances to the op
ahh simpler op fights for simpler times :p
most clan i have fought on terra just zone in and out of UG with prolly a ppu donw there healing and buffing up all...
thats the most lame tactic i ever fought
IMO the whole "Defender GR's to UG" thing they added to the game, killed a good bit of fun from the opwars.
Everyone now just camps and spams the UG with barrels, etc. After the defenders get out, it's just a showdown of who rushes better, no one side vs. another because everyone is mixed up. Before you fought at the enterances, one side holding a camp outside, the other inside, and that made it god damn exciting.
Today, it's just.....meh.
It was good when the smaller clans had a chance
I remember once we took an op with just 3 monks
2 ppu's and one apu
we held it for 2 hours plus
No one clan that attacked us could win until two fully manned clans combined and hit
damn, after all our efforts u think they would just let us hold it for a little bit
If a clan is tough enough why don't they take teh whole map ?
Why do I see factions always taking the same Op's but stopping
when my little clan takes an op, the other factins don't stop hitting us till it is theirs again or we have to go to work
Question. what were you saying about the underground fighting
can people go to teh ops underground when attacking ?

Damn right. Ventrilo helps. A lot. Why spend 6 seconds typing "They're coming through the west entrance!" (for example), when you can easily say it in 1?
ah i remember the good old days of one hacker being able to do all three layers. gave smaller clans a chance
as it stands, bring a shitload of monks - whoever has most monks is usually teh win
Which is teh best Ventrilo or teamspeak
I tried teamspeak with clan but most of them had teamspeak issues
which is easier for useage ?

Ive found the best tactic is to never under estimate your enemy.
Zerg them with a ration of 10 : 1 and youll always win :rolleyes:

ya i hear the mercs excelled at that :p
dont use 3:1 odds
dont hack when the enemy clan has noone on
dont nub buff
1 If a clan is tough enough why don't they take teh whole map ?
2 when my little clan takes an op, the other factins don't stop hitting us till it is theirs again or we have to go to work
1 done it....not good for the server.
2 becuase they are pussies and go for the easy win.
edit: oh yea use vent... better sound than teamspeak... atleast for me.
edit2: kinda funny how i havent seen one god damn turret soo far on terra :) must be that they are soo expensive
the best tactic is
to win.
How to win?
Crush 'em.
Yes it's that simple.
Bring more ppus than the opponent have fighters. drop their apus instantly. and ur teh win.
dont use 3:1 odds
dont hack when the enemy clan has noone on
dont nub buff
basic rules of a honest opfight
dont use 3:1 odds
dont hack when the enemy clan has noone on
dont nub buff
<3 I hate when ppl do that
oops
sorry for double post
id say 80% of the time they wont even come attack till u have less than 3 ppl on
The best tactic in my opinion goes as follows, you must follow this list EXACTLY!
1) get about 20 guys at the front of the op, 2 rows of 10.
2) Have them staggered like this -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_
3) wait for the enemy
4) let the enemy buff up, and charge in.
5) over teamspeak, have one person count 1,2,3, GO
6) when the person says GO, proceed to type in "i giveup"
7) as the enemy starts firing, then the same person counts again
8) at GO, everyone types in /set kill_self 1
9) go back to clan apartment/faction center and laugh/sex eachother.

omg i thought it was just me, my old clan did this everytime , never fails but dude u really shouldnt be exposing tis exploit, could get u banned u know :rolleyes:

Err, camping the UG is worse than camping the GR in the zone. At least everyone isn't stupid to GR to the zone. Everyone GR's to UG...almost always, anyway.
I mean, the previous method employs tactics and strategies in infiltrating your attacker.
The one IN the OP, is in my opinion, weaker, because he's cornered. The ones outside, can prey on the ones inside, and this inverted scheme actually gave the defender THE EDGE.
Now it's just bullshit within the range of who has the best Frame Per Second.
I know I can't fight in huge player battles, all packed so closely together from the get go, while some of them are zoning constantly on top.
dont use 3:1 odds
dont hack when the enemy clan has noone on
dont nub buff
Although it can be fun when ya win and the odds are 3:1 :p
