Quick clip from our 6-14-17 CNTK Open Warband event.


Had some good fights, will actually call out Ocara, much respect in not giving up, standing and staying in the fights and in the end Destro took Reik. Good fights.
Any comments, suggestions or even requests are all appreciated and wanted as always.

Loving the snippet of the voice comms in the beginning, lol.

Abbd.: You might wanna cover that tooltip on the assist macro, giving away your mainassists name is probably not a good idea *cough*.
Abbd.: Additionally: Put it on a hotkey, you wanna gurantee fast targetswaps - that is if you don't have it on a hotkey already and your mainassist is to be trusted with his targetting... its one of the both. Actually, given the lack of voice comms/movement orders it might he might be just struggling to pick targets in range whilst following those order, if the latter is the case. I am curious.

Thanks for comment and suggestions.

Yes I have MA on hotkey already. We get constant voice comes all the time, I just remove our comms ( unless funny ) from videos. Not too sure why knowing my MA name is an issue really, as we change it around for testing purposes. Ow target calling via voice doesn't really happen, but we are always trying different things Aldo.

Thanks again like I said for comment and suggestions.

I am aware that you run voice comms 24/7 and cut it - one just cannot completly follow all the decisions made by your MA without hearing respective movement orders; at times it looks a bit clunky.
As to the name thing, well if you had a fix mainassist certain people would have a field day sniping him and disabling your assisttrain with it.

Didn't mean to question your mainassist there, might have been alltogether legitimate targetpicks depending on the voice comm situation - calling specific targets via voice comms shouldn't be necessary, vague directions from the leader for the MA should be sufficient; it'd just interfere with normal orders.

However you might wanna hug your MA regardless, the bunch of you midgets that is - the same way you cuddle with Beanie whilst moving.

Abbd.: He is - by the looks of it - Beanie's shadow 18/7* - thats what you want to be aswell.
*He did a better job in previous videos iirc, overextended/tunnelvisioned a bit in this one.

Lol cuddle Beanie.. actually most think we don't stay close enough to him. During fights, we don't call shots/targets as it would be confusing as you said, we/I ( def myself ) need to get better at assisting without being told directly from the MA. Regarding sniping our MA, don't think it's too hard figuring out who's who in a WB if they play often ( we do) so I'm guessing the Destro WB's have an idea already who we are, where we are and who the MA's are already.

Speaking of the snippet in beginning... I honestly couldn't believe the Destro WB "ran"

No harm in the comments, I appreciate the feedback

The issue being: If you don't run addons to do the QoL stuff for you, swapping MAs on the fly is nigh impossible. Targetting for your rdps and such gets pretty tricky without MA aswell, so keeping the MA alive should be one of your main priorities.

Figuring out who in the sea of midgets leads the assisttrain is rather infurating if you approach it blindly. Beanie is tough enough as a tank to sustain snipes, a midget likely is not.

Yes, we know who you guys are, we meet each other quite often in the lakes.

As I've took the time to read up the thread, I have only one suggestion for you: Bind your skills to the keyboard, not the mouse.
Not because it's mainstream, just to split the workload on your two hands, not one.

Nice videos! Keep it up!

Not too sure what you mean split work load between two hands.. already do, my left is only used for W,A,S,D and morales via key board binds (G910) , mouse (G600 ) is used for key binds as it has 15 or so buttons as well as tab target and mic toggle function. Now if ur asking me to use left hand for key binds of action bar and use mouse only for panning, movement etc. unfortunately due to physical inability, that's not an option.

Always love seeing regulars in the lakes as well.

Well, if I had known that bit I wouldn't have bugged you about that stuff either - meh, overeagerness is the bane of my and other's existences. My honest apologies.

No reason to apologize for anything. In my book, no harm no foul. Again, I appreciate any and all feedback, critical constructive is all welcomed. I'm an adult, it's a game.

This is the return of the CNTK LOLBand from our 6-20-2017 event.

Again, this LOLband isn't organized, setup or have any real objective. We die a lot and do many things we normally wouldn't do on our normal WB days. These videos for the LOLWB also are not intended for criticism for anyone as again.. we don't really care.

Thanks again, will be posting our normal CNTK Open Warband video from Wednesday if you prefer more organized style of gameplay.

Thanks again.

I've been taking it easy past two weeks and on vacay. I will be returning Tuesday 7/4 and back to recording and posting vids again.

[Toshutkidup]

This is from our Open Warband on 7-5-17. Kinda short as action was slow at first. Thankfully Hoa and company came in bit later.
