[TR] The Cohort - Airborne Shock Infantry [xCOx]

The Cohort is a fast paced airborne infantry outfit tailored to attract the casual-competitive gamers out there who understand the balances between real life and gaming. First and foremost, the goal here is to have fun. We achieve this by kicking *** in-game with a bunch of like-minded cohorts(being drunk/high is optional, but expected), as well as teaching/training all our members to a set standard that will create an atmosphere that any drunk bastard good at video games would enjoy. (Note - There is currently a three week waiting list for all applicants living in Canada.)

Our outfit philosophy is simple. Our goal is to mix the numbers and brute force of a large outfit with the tactics, skill, and speed of a special unit. Employing the Sunderer and Galaxy as our preferred modes of transportation, the Cohort strikes lightning fast to turn the tide of battle and help the Terran Republic in its goals to conquer the continents. Utilizing a veteran leadership with a background dating back to the beginning of Planetside 1, the Cohort is sure to make anyone that’s team oriented have a great time accomplishing feats on the battlefield—especially during prime time 6pm-12am EST.

What can we offer to give you purpose in this game?

1. Nightly Operations – Everything from a simple base hold, spearheading for the zerg, to a continent wide population shift. Ours ops are Monday - Friday, starting at 6pm EST. Weekends are casual.

2. Organization – We enjoy working together, and our tactics reflect that. We are not here to hold your hand or play for you. We teach you how to play in our group and expect you to think and play for yourself.

3. Training – The Cohort was founded on the value of teaching it's members how to play the game and become better as an individual and as a team. We will teach you the basics in how we run ops all the way to how to play each and every class. The most important aspect we will teach you is battle awareness.

4. Great Atmosphere within the group - This is a game, not a job. Yes, we set this outfit up for success, but that does not mean we can't screw around on TS while we do our thing. This is a gaming community that has been around for years. Half of us have played games together for 6+ years; This allows us to keep things light on teamspeak and still be organized in our ops. Did I mention movie nights?

Do you think you found a purpose in us? See our requirements to see if you fit in:

1. Must be 18 or older, unless you're the next Dalai Lama; then we might make an exception. However, we would have to speak with your mother on teamspeak, no exceptions.

2. Communication is imperative! Must have a working microphone and be willing to speak using Teamspeak. If you're in game during ops, you're expected to be on teamspeak and with the outfit.

3. Must be team oriented—that means being able to follow orders as well as help give them and support them.

4. Thick skin – we are not kidding, have thick skin or you will not last long. You the type that likes to laugh your *** off while killing people in-game?- We might be just right for you.

5. Decent KDR and SPM (above 1.2 KDR). We understand that KDR and SPM does not necessarily represent one's skill in game. During the trial period we will look at your stats to get a better understanding of your skill level and play style. If you need help getting it better we will train you. However We're looking for people who are competitive. Part of being competitive is always trying to get better. If you're unable to learn the basics of FPS gaming and have your skill level grow you will not fit in.

If you found your purpose in us and meet our requirements, please proceed to contact anyone wearing a [xCOx] outfit tag on Emerald, leave a post in this thread, or head to our website and post an application. Understand that all recruits will undergo a trial period in which their actions will be gauged in determining whether or not they are Cohort material. The trial period will last at least a week and will give you the chance to see what we're all about, and give us a chance to make sure you have what it takes. We're not here to make you change your personality to fit us—if its not working out, you will be kicked.

Don't be shy if you're interested in joining us or learning more about us. The best way to see if we're a good fit for you is to jump on our TS server and roll with us one night. If you like what you see, ask an officer, or myself, for an interview. The interview is to make sure you understand what we're about and to make sure your play style will be met in our group.

I'll even go one step further, here is our teamspeak 3 info:

Sensitive? Mono toned and boring? THE COHORT IS TOTALLY NOT FOR YOU!
Join Cohort and get good.

Feel free to come jump onto our TS server if you wanna learn more about the group.

Very interested in joining, it sounds like a lot of fun. Just curious about the reason for the three week waiting list for Canadians, as I am Canadian.

Hey taz, Since the officers are busy i can answer that. The 3 week waiting period is in place for Canadians because they cant say "about" the right way. The 3 weeks is there to help normalize the lame Canadian way of speaking.

Hope this helps and hop on TS!!!!!!

Its just there to make people laugh. About half our members seem to be Canadian. Come jump on our TS sometime for a quick interview. I'll go over the outfit with you and answer any questions you might have.

Good luck Salous.

You know luck has nothing to do with it. Btw, looking forward to fighting DA on this server.

No comment lol

Should be fun.

You should jump on our TS sometime for ***** and giggles. Lets reminisce about the good old days in PS 1.

Sounds a plan, I'll dust off my TR and jump on TS for sure mate.

Well now I'm not interested. In fact, I find this very offensive. If you Americans are too dumb to understand Canadians, then don't recruit Canadians.

If you find that offensive, then you sure as hell won't fit in with this group. Have a nice day.

Hey, Fellow Canadian here. The Language barrier was tough at first but once you give it time you may come to see that Americans aren't so different after all...


I hope you're trolling.

As a scotsman, you guys have a lot to learn about sarcasm - of course he's not saying Canadians cant join...

Some people just don't have a sense of humor.

If your really that dumb or have no sense of humor we don't want you anyways.

(I stand by this misspelled "your" 100%)
