    Smurf Assault Squad - The Rematch lol

    Could almost be a movie title.

    :D
  3. Basti

    RipperX isnt Vanu Corp, i believe he is Rival as well. ;)

    edit: actually he isnt Rival. No idea what outfit he is, if any. :>
  4. Luperza Community Manager

    He sent his bio and that was the outfit he said he rolls with, so... :p
  5. 1cep1ck

    This sounds incredibly awesome, haha.
  6. GaryTube

    sounds like fun - unfortunately the 12th is my birthday and i will probably miss it :(
  7. Luperza Community Manager

    It'll be recorded and posted as a recap! :)
  8. D0n

    Haha, covetous crew and mercs, this will be fun to watch.
  9. Luperza Community Manager

    Sure if you're interested. I still need an EU outfit. :) Let me know if you want to do a rematch or if you know another EU outfit that is interested, send them my way!

    I have come from Battlefield 3 on PS3, If it wasnt for rivaLxfactor i would not know about this game (edit: alot of my computer parts were suggested by him, its all about the frames!!!). His videos are really good, when he does his HTBABN series for planetside it will help alot of the newer players learn to adjust and PTFO, which is beneficial for the game as a whole. Ive also been watching ripper X's vids over the last few weeks, good to see some infiltrator gameplay as i dont play that class at all really. VANUUUUUUUUUUUUU :p

    Haha. Looks like Higby's team is down a couple players. I talked smack to T-ray on PSU about the match and how the NC were going to dominate and now it looks like that might bite me in the ***.
  13. PapaSmurf

    I've tweeted out to drum up some EU interest for you. Hopefully it'll get some EU outfits to take note and showcase their group.

    Currently I sound and feel like a dog puking (horrible cold) so probably not the best option or this week :(
  14. Deathcapt

    Super Troopers are usually doing Operations during that time, We'd be happy to do some "meet the outfit" type stuff. We basically do Galaxy drops, but will diversify if need be, just make sure that when the light turns green, you jump out of the Galaxy.
  15. Luperza Community Manager

    I got your PM. :) Please respond! Thanks.
