So, this may be old news, but I just found it, so it is interesting to me. It has all of the stats you could ever care about for warhawk. Now, how do we get our Tuesday night games to be setup as ranked so that we can get the stat information up on this site?

There's no way you're anywhere near as tired of my TOW as I am of your tank! ;)

Actually, your precision in the tank makes it such that the only way I can reliably get to you is with the TOW or the electro thingie. I can rarely get close enough to use a cluster bomb.

I am starting to wonder if the game matches up teams based on rank or something. Looking through the profiles of the clan members I think you and are have the most playing time and highest ranks so the game may intentionally separate us. Would be fun to be on the same team though, but then I wouldn't have anyone to shoot out of the air.

I think you're right. Truth is that I spend most of my time just trying to keep you off of my teammates, and I can therefore never go after objectives. Right now, you don't seem to be getting anybody too discouraged (except me maybe), but I have a feeling that if I let you go full time, folks would eventually get upset. So it may seem cheap, but I'm mostly just trying to moderate the game (and get a bit of revenge every now and then).

But yes, you and I on the same team would be...possibly...just a bit...unfair. :lol:

It seems the only reason we have warhawks in the air most the time is to ground you. I may have to force myself to get better in them just to keep you honest :)

True in capture the flag, less so in team death match. I actually thought about making you an offer to stay out of Warhawks if you'll stay out of tanks...bet it would make us both better rounded and would give others a fighting chance.

So, when is this clan stuff happening? Or even other games besides just Tuesday?

One night a week is all I can commit to...and certainly all I can commit to hosting. But I'd definitely jump in if we came up with a night.

I hate that more can't get on, but I'm honestly happy to have the problem 6 weeks in. :)

I really like having all-talk...at least while we're still playing casual games.

Wow. The information about each of the individual public games is pretty incredible.

I think in order to have ranked games, chess said that the game-wide communication would have to be changed to team-only.

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

Anyone going to be around tonight for a clan meeting? 9 ESTish?

As in like, to play a game or what?

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

If we had a few guys I figured we could give it a go... I also figure it would take more than a couple hours of notice, but I thought I'd give it a shot to see who was around.

I can be on at around 10pm CST at the earliest. I will hop on and see if there is anything going on and jump in if there is.

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

I signed on a couple of times but never caught anyone online.

Saturday won't work for me this weekend, but does anyone want to try for a time on Sunday?

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

I'd show up this weekend if you guys want to play.

Gotta warn you though...we would likely get destroyed out in the "real" Warhawk world.

Oh I fully expect to get destroyed.

I mean I'm just starting to be mediocre in the rookie games. I stumbled into a medium-level game and I never want to go back. But if we're out there getting annihilated as a fun-loving group, it seems like it could be more fun than getting slaughtered solo. :)

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

Is there a way to insure we are on the same team in a public match? I can try to play on Sunday. Depends on what time really. If it is at night then I have a better chance to be able to play then during the day.

I assumed you had to play against another clan in order for that to work, if not then cool...did not know that.

You do have to play against another clan, but you're just selecting one from the available list to challenge. Same premise, just different arena.

Otherwise, you can see your list of available friends and see what public game they're logged into... and you can also join that game, but there's no guarantee you'll be on the same team.

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

I bought a new n-band router this weekend and it's running pretty strong! Hopefully I won't have network problems within Warhawk like I did before. I played a few games online this weekend with no drops.

Mine's been reliable this week. I still get the intermittent error, but once I'm on, I've never dropped.

Anyway, sorry somebody else is having issues.

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

So, are we still thinking we are going to try for a clan match today?

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

I'd like to try. 9pm est?

Sounds good for the most part. I may not be able to get on until 9:30 est though, but I will try for 9.

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

Im in. I should be on no later than 9pm C.

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

Will jump on at 8 CST.

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

Not me gang - see you on Tuesday night, glitch-free I hope. I'll be on a little later, probably 8 PM CST.

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

Is it just us 3 on right now? Chess, jdpatri and me?

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

Log into game - frizby.
