Oh, yeah. That reminds me. I still need a new headset. I should probably go do that.
I think they plan on doing it weekly brother.Man I wish I had seen this post last week. I'd love to join next time I have time (sadly that won't be this coming weekend). I'm not terrible at FPS games, but I'm nothing special for sure.
I'm in if I'm home.next training day on the 14th, same time.
He's a BEAST!Er guys and gals if you want some FPS training just play with Shive! Jeepers I've never seen such High kill/death ratios and crazy tactics as last night! They even managed to drag me through and make me look somewhat presentable! :smile:
I see you have a GRASP event on Feb 25. How do I join the event? Will a room on Test discord be set up?So here is what I am doing. I am forming GRASP combat group. Grasp stands for GRound Air and SPace. It is the SEAL teams of Test squadron (aka drunk SEALs) The goal is to promote FPS training and combat proficiency.
This is accomplished by weekly training events. I will am taking lead on North America training (all time zones welcome, just being set to work with NA) I will be holding the training every Saturday at 2pm EST (Starting the 7th of January) I plan on being on for 2-3 hours. come whenever, leave whenever.
what is GRASP's end goal? Well the idea is to get as many people to work together and understand tactics and FPS game play. On top of that I want to form more dedicated members into strike team to work together for the goal of bounty hunting/security NO PIRATES ;) inside the PU.
How does GRASP work? Well it is simple, we have weekly training events. you come, you learn. You want more? Ask to be put in a team, we will form a team of people that can train more on your time frame. and people you enjoy playing with.
If we are going to be in team what is the importance of group training? Well first you will not always be out in the verse with your team, so we want everyone to know the basics of how we work, and be able to work with any group, IE understanding tactics and being able to fight with a team without getting in their way.
What makes you qualified to run this? Most importantly I want this to happen, and I am taking infinitive. I also have 3 years if Infantry training in the US Army. as well as several thousand hours in FPS games.
Are you going to order me around? No, This is not a military. I will put events together, help with the training, set up standard operating procedure (SOP), and try to solve any issues I can. Teams will have more SOPs then persons, and most of them will be left to the team it's self. One key rule will be if you get assistance from a team (in PU) you follow their lead if you want their help.
So what will I learn if I come? Everything we can teach you about the FPS game it's self, tactics, callsigns, how to use the weapons of your choice, ETC.
What can I expect if I join a team? Well every team will be different, but the idea is to focus on ~4 men teams. And that is up to you and yours. I will give any advice I have when asked but will not go sticking my nose in. I will encourage team-on-team practice.
What will a open training day look like? Well to start I am planning on focusing on three key points, and will change as needed. The three parts are, Weapons training, Tactics, and end with full games.
Staff edit: Please use TEST's discord: discord.testsquadron.com
We have a backup Discord if we end up having issues inside the Test Discord. And if Teams wish to have a little more privacy when training.
More Questions? more then happy to answer.
