TR and VS have to cut this crap

I swear TR and VS have an agreement to only attack the NC on Briggs server. Every instance I see during an alert is just the TR taking one half of the continent and the VS taking the other half, and instead of fighting for territory between each other, they only ever keep trying to contain the NC at our warpgate. There are even regions between the TR/VS divide that have no enemy presence and they stay that way until the end of the alert, because EVERYONE is pushing towards the NC warpgate. The only time TR and VS attack each other is when there's no other NC territory to cap and they just want to pass the time. This is a damn conspiracy.
After whining about NC being OPed and what not, nerfing our weapons apparently doesn't seem to appease them. What the hell are the TR and VS still b*tthurt about?


Only one area of conflict between TR and VS at the J908 Crash Site. Peris Amp Station on the other hand...


Instead of pushing left into free exp territory, the VS chose to head south for whatever reason there was.

Lies, there is a small fight at the crater between them.

Happens to everyone on all servers. There's no conspiracy

Alas, those aren´t exactly great examples to prove your point. On both pictures you have VS/TR taking away from each other, and especially on the last picture TR virtually has no other option than to engage VS, btw whoever led the VS at that time...not smart!

NC weapons were never nerfed...?
The MAX's shotguns were put back in line, and so did all of the other infantry shotguns (all factions).

I still find NC carbines and LMGs to be a huge nuisance, specially at long range.
Weren't those guns supposed to have ridiculous recoil?

I don't know how your server pop is usually at, but in most servers NC is overpopulating; so that might be a reason why the other factions would rather focus fire on them, if I had to guess.
Since the last couple of weeks, I've found myself fighting exclusively NC on Helios.

yes and from the TR point of view NC and VS always only fight TR but not each other. Its simply because you do not see the fights for the other factions and you are loosing. If you look at the maps you posted on indar both TR and VS have taken territories to within 2 captures of each others warp gates and on amerish VS has taken the entire middle so they must be fighting TR unless you saw prowlers outside the amerish warpgate in the above map scenario they is no conspiracy. In fact it looks like TR is trying to take out the VS supply lines to the majority of the VS territory on Amerish

Your pictures say nothing. The NC on Briggs could simply be bad and easily beaten and quickly capped by the TR and VS, while when the TR and VS fight, they could be having more prolonged engagements over territory, meaning much longer cap times and a much slower sense of progression. I'd like to see a screenshot of the enemy activity on your server to see if it really is all taking place around the NC corner.

And we will keep on doing this until you hand over your tinfoil hats...

that my friend is the bitter hatred that was fueled with the Phoenix and the scattmax i hope the TR and VS set aside their differences for the time being and wipe the smurfs of the face of auraxis DEATH TO THE SMURFS!

You have no idea what you are talking about. There are loads of times where 2 factions attack 1 faction since there are only 2 options of who to attack. Since NC is the biggest threat to each faction it would seem logical that they get the most focus and anyway TR have basically given up on being competitive so for VS the only big fights are against NC

In a war amongst 3 it is always 2 against 1.

This is the status quo on Briggs. It has been since launch. It started at the beginning when NC was severely underpowered due to ridiculous flinch mechanics making slow RoF weapons next to useless it anything but fights over 150 m. Its continued to this day.

When NC held the northern Indar Warpgate, VS and TR players claimed "VS and TR only attack NC because NC has the OP warpgate position." Yet after the warpgate rotations, VS and TR still pretty much send at least 60% of their forces towards the NC every day.

To get a better idea of that map, you really need to see the activity levels. I should've screen shotted it, but to sum up, there was "enemy platoons" at the Crown, Crossroads, and around Mao Tech, then pretty much all along the NC/TR and NC/VS borders.

How does whining about it on the forums help you to organize a counter balance to the situation? If NC on Briggs is incapable of recruiting for outfits and organizing your own alliances, or otherwise finding a way to fight back, then you kind of deserve to be in the position you are in.

It's just easier to fight NC. They have bad tanks, bad ESFs, their guns have worse dps and the scat max is now nerfed. Why wouldn't you fight NC if given the option?

I lol at posts like this. People have been in this game for months and still don't understand the flow of a battle. 90% of the time when a zerg comes towards your territory it's because you attacked theirs. It's obvious in the screen shot of Indar that VS and TR are fighting each other TR has Mao and VS has Zurvan. In the Amerish map how can you even come to the conclusion that VS and TR are teaming up??? The TR can't even fight you.

There is no alliance between the VS and TR. It may look like it, and may actually feel like it at times, but everyone is fighting a two front war at all times in this game. Sometimes it just happens that the harder push is in one direction than the other. Though, if your faction currently controls the continent, then you should expect to be pushed much harder from both sides.

I usually don't post in the official boards, but I had an overwhelming urge to reply to this thread... On Connery, the NC had over 50% of Indar at the 50% mark of the timer. With less than 1 hour left on the Indar Alert yesterday, the TR and VS turned their collective attention to the NC and almost pushed us back to our warp gate. Was I frustrated? Yep... But that was one helluva fight, and I wouldn't have it any other way... We (the NC) had over 50% of Indar halfway through the alert. I didn't expect the VS and TR to hand us Indar, and I'm not surprised they both turned their collective attention to the NC (essentially making it a 2:1 fight 66% pop versus 33% pop)... But that's the point... I would have honestly been disappointed if they didn't...

Congrats to the TR on Connery for taking that alert! And Congrats to the VS on Connery for locking Indar (which has remained neutral since the first warpgate rotation post launch) during the Amerish Alert last night. Good on both!

Who cares? You still shoot at either faction regardless, right? So round up your posse and go find where to cause the mayhem and stop whining.

I swear between the pump action babies, the SCAT Max children, the OHK whiners and the other children who cry at things that don't go their way, it makes me wonder how devs don't just say **** this! and pull the plug on the whole damn thing.

Ridiculous.

Clever, OP.
I can clarify that "most" of the time the NC and TR are attacking VS nearly exclusively on Indar. You will see both factions working there way up the sides trying to warpgate the VS. The funny thing is NC is on population of 40%+ and TR have an alright population.
Wouldn't it make more sense for TR and VS to team up against the most populated and powerful faction?

I think it has to do with the money. Yes very probably the money has something to do with why they don't shut down the game.
