Squad Question

brahan44 · Post by **brahan44** » Thu Jul 29, 2010 12:25 am

Hi there, Mr. Brahan K. Noob, here and I have a question about Squads...
• How do you make a Squad?
• How many people can be in a Squad and what the minimum amount of people?
• Why do people hate me BECAUSE of my squad/group?
• What is the difference between Squads and Group?
• How many squads/groups can you be in at a time?
- Thanks
Mr. Brahan K. Noob

1. Find 14 non newbs that participate in 3 squad games
2. Max is indefinite(?) and minimum is 15
3. People don't hate you because of your squad/group, they hate you because they're not as pretty.
4. Difference is 1 is expected to show up and be competitive, the other is CAN be competitive but also CAN be a bunch of goofballs and no one gets mad when you tell them they don't have to wake up at 2 am on Sundays.
5. 1 squad, and if I understand what "group" means, you can be in as many as you can.

(I am defining group as "People you like to fly with but not an organized squad")

it wont work, go ahead and try it, but ASGS will reject it.

for your squad/ group questions, I can log in as PsycHosis@XT or PsycHosis@HELP

XT is my squad, @HELP is a group i belong to (one of several)

you can be in 1 squad, but many groups (@alleg, @cdt, @acs, @afs)

They'll always do, don't even care about asking.

This sort of question could have happily gone in the AFS forum...

One thing you can do, if you find/have a group of people you like to fly with is just have a common part of your In-game callsign.

I.e. you and your friends could register callsigns which all start or end with the same characters, for example if you wanted to call yerselves Not For Sale, you could create a separate hider callsign with that on the end.

e.g.

Brahan44_NFS
OtherGuy_NFS
Someother_NFS

if you wish.

Edit:
You are allowed to create 3 separate callsigns in ASGS.

Ok so when in a group do you use the @EXAMPLE when playing the game?

You get the choice.

You are in AFS, so you (if you wish) can login as Brahan44@AFS, rather than just Brahan.

How to add a tag - if you are in a squad - is explained better here
