Don't get it

Potlucks, pool, sing alongs at squadron headquarters, insignia, arm patches, jeep rides to the flying field. That sort of thing...

Cloudbuster. That was funny. Sing.alongs LOL

looks like even more enemy names all over the screen to the point of not being able to single out f all coming towards you.wall of red.Its bad enough when a group is heading your way nevermind having names above and below.Add squad tags infront of names 4 letters max.
will probably deter noobs.
less freindly atmosphere.

priority should be to get the game working properly first.

personaly i dont see the point.

It was implemented by Zuperman in order to further create a sense of comradeship , push the game forward and add a different edge of competitiveness. All quality games have clans/squadrons. I don't see why Dogfight shouldn't have this and I'm glad Zuperman incorporated it into his game.

Thx Slenderman...btw tgmulan y u got -11 karma..I uped ur karma to try to help

I'll also up tgmulans karma

Cool.........

I think Cloudbuster gets it point on: The idea of squads is not to create invincible clans, but to create groups of people who know and respect one another, and can have fun together.

When members of the same squadron meet in a game they greet one another, and chat, even if they have joined the game on opposite sides.

I do not think it would be a good idea to allow members of the same squadron to join the same team by choice, at least not in ordinary, open for all games. It would be fun for them, of course, but less so for the others.

I was on a game once when three aces belonging to the same squad joined the game at the same time. They were on the red team, and came towards us flying side by side, decorated like Christmas trees from top to bottom with squadron names, rank symbols and player names.

It may have happened by pure chance, or they may have quit, waited a few seconds, and joined again several times until they ended up all on the same side.

Some of the blue players chose to leave the game at once. To go against a close-knit group of expert players like that must have seemed less than inviting to them. And of course, as things turned out, we didn't stand a chance.

Prearranged "squad wars" would be another thing altogether. It would be great fun for the squad members, who could coordinate their efforts by planning the fight on beforehand, dividing roles according to skills, and lifting the game to a much higher level. And best of all, it would not harm or irritate anyone else.

I will update all you guys's karma because you are the best!!

Exactly! I'm glad someone else sees it like this.

And yeah, it's funny how some players quit when multiple Enigma or 111th members join.

So, after having upped you twice now, along with the contributions of all the others, it seems you're back to normal. . I wonder how a nice & reasonable person like you could ever have got so many minuses in such a short time.

Who gave me "beep"?? I don't remember that? When did this happen???!!??!!??!!!

Maybe I have you mixed up with tgmulan. She did something like that, and earned a lot of negative karma

Ooooohhh ok That would explain it thanks

Yep it was Tgmulain.

I thought when there are squad members of the same team the automatically get put on the same team?

chan is RIGHT (even though i thought he LEFT )

squads should be more than just social groups

I still think dogfight round should be sqd vs sqd time

we can implement it by having a thread where everyone posts how many of which squad, they killed

we can put it into practice by adding that thread here

anyone up for it

purely experimental

How do u keep track there is no way i can keep up with which squad member and how many times i killed or got killed by.

Chan did leave. This is an anchient thread.

Lets not get into unofficial squad wars, again, last time people got banned.

I agree with the others...the squads promote a friendly playing enviroment as well as a more interesting game when members work together.. i personally try to b friendly to all im involved with game wise even non squad members.. it isent to out skill the competition or take over the game but for a better challenge... i enjoy where im at an respect my fellow enigmas as well as the skilled pilots i fly against... see you in the skies.

As far as squads go l am a big fan of squad teams during the Dog Fight rounds. I feel that Squads should fight together regardless of what squad they belong to. In many respects thats the closest thing to Squad Wars as we're going to get for now. But it seems that im in the minority here. Most folks want to just blast each other...which is fine I guess bc thats what its there for. [E]PANZER

Squads build a feeling of esprit de corps. I like that I can easily chat with someone I've never played with before simply because we are in the same squad. I like that my squad encourages fair play and helping others learn to enjoy the game. I also like to see how others feel included when they are invited into a squad. I know that there are good people in all the squads and I would like to see friendly competition between them. For me, the game has been more enjoyable since I joined a squad.
