Hello! Let us know what you are most looking forward to playing when Battle Cry of Freedom comes out and why!

I'm looking forward to playing as line infantry. Specifically Union because slavery is bad yo!

Post by: Svensson on November 11, 2012, 01:58:18 pm
Not sure. I do very much enjoy playing as regular infantry but I do have a common interest to play cavalry. Obviously depends though, if for example cavalry officers are given overpowered revolvers like in other warband mods it will turn me down on playing a cavalry.

In NW I enjoy all kind of units, so I'm sure I will do it aswell in CoF.
Title: Re: Which role will you play?
Post by: Vorlen on November 11, 2012, 02:03:46 pm
It depends as well. In MM(Not talking about NW because public lost it's apeal) Inf was good fun, due to maps, general skill it took and the community aspect was more based around it.

Public in BCoF is an unknown entity, as with what i imagine will be a popular new gamemode. It's hard to say whether i will try some different roles or not.

Probably end up as Line Infantry. Sniper seems like a cool rank too, i love to shoot musicians and officers you see.

As much as I love standing in the frontline and charging the enemys with my bayonet, I'm most probably going to play as scout on public servers. Sneaking behind the enemys and do a nice little surprise attack sounds like great fun to me. :D
But I will first have to see what the different roles are going to be like.

They had snipers even in the 1700's. I'm not sure if a sniper was just a very skilled marksman, or if the rifle was actually made for sniping. I think it was the former though. So I guess a sniper will just be what a rifleman is to a line infantryman in NW. Just more accurate.

A sniper so that I can shoot the officers and engineers :D

Not picking on this comment, but after reading this entire thread, a new game mode idea came into my head.  What if a "Hero" game mode was developed where the player(s) play an individual role of Sniper (or Artilleryman?) and the AI controlled everything else.  Imagine the pure joy of sneaking up through the woods and dropping enemy officers and such.  Perhaps could do it in small groups, i.e. "with your friends".  The outcome of which would modify the effectiveness or morale of that AI regiment...

Other comment on everyone wanting to be snipers - this is natural for peeps to seek a role that has some type of advantage over other players for more fun.  That being said, I would NEVER have fun playing the victim.  So sharpshooter class may not fit in well without some type of distinct disadvantage, (like 2 broken legs...or...)

Of course, I would play as an infantryman fighting on the front lines, but if I would choose I would probably be an engineer - it's cool to build stuff to keep your men in the game and keep the enemy out of your personal space.

On another note, why are there so many friggin snipers? Snipers were hated by pretty much everyone in the Civil War and oftentimes, if a sniper was captured by anyone who wasn't also a sniper, they could expect no quarter - period.

I'd honestly need to go with cavalry. Cavalry is an important asset to an army in that time period and without them, an army is blind without the information from them. They can pretty much fight as well as infantry when dismounted... John Buford at Gettysburg proved that when his two brigades held against General Heth's division, keeping the high ground under Union control.

As long as the difference in ground is high enough, nearly every unit with guns would be able to stop them. Through an equal amount of bowmen or crossbowmen in there, with ample ammo, they still would've gotten th job done.

158 people want to be officers, and judging from the other numbers, it looks like we'll be having 3-5man regiments! (I know, slight exaggeration, but if you've played M&B a while, you know this is a reality to some degree ;P)
What glorious battles we'll have in store! dozens of tiny little rambo-minded regiments running around without any agreed upon strategy or an effectively strong sense of teamwork. Ah, I can't wait to see those giant regiments, which were historically comprised of, usually, multiple battalions made up of several companies each with plenty of men per company... oh wait, why are we calling these individual little lines of muskets entire regiments again? Oh yeah, illiterate traditions from the MM days. We don't want to step on anyone's toes or ask them to try something new... God help us if we bring every misguided ideal from MM and NW into BCoF...
_________
Aside from the usual rantings of historians and strategists and more on the directed topic, I plan on being a southern officer. Why, after my officer rant do I say such a thing? Because I've been playing since the birth of the 1stEPI and have seen most everything from the seat of a grunt musketeer, a sergeant, a flank guide/guard, and secondary line leader when called upon. I've witnessed several leaders from their start to their finish, I've witnessed their methods and their tactics, and have been trained in them all. I've seen what's worked and what hasn't. And for the plus? I can make ah purty good'ol sa'thurn ak'sent!

We have far too many people that want to be an officer nowadays. Personally I think a lot of people have the wrong idea behind being an officer. Everyone wants to be an officer because it is a high, fancy rank that you can show off to others. You are not an officer so that the rankers can praise you and stroke your ego. Officers and NCOs are there to make sure events go smoothly and the players under them have a fun time playing the game. I've spent more time as an officer or an NCO than I ever did as a ranker and to me the best moments where when others respected me for helping them enjoying the game, teaching new things and having a laugh during events because we all died horribly to a well placed cannonball.

Not necessarily. Even though there are probably a lot of people that go officer just because they want to show off and have a fancy uniform, there are others out there (like me) that actually want to be officer because they enjoy what an officer has to do. Personally, I have always enjoyed taking a position where I have various responsibilities in a community (moderator, administrator, w/e), so being an officer is something I want to do. Not because I want to have a nice uniform, but because I enjoy leading. But I understand what you mean though, not everyone is like me, and not everyone wants to be an officer "for the right reasons." :P

Title: Re: Which role will you play?
Post by: joer5835 on October 21, 2015, 08:57:52 pm
It's good to see an exception, but you and me are truly exceptions here, Norwegian. Just as pointed out earlier, I have seen too many people who believed being an officer is all about looking good on the roster and bossing rankers around. Being an officer shouldn't be about authority, but about doing something more for your regiment and making sure everyone has a good time playing the game. And I don't think a lot of people will enjoy the game if their officers act like they believe they are some sort of God on earth.
Title: Re: Which role will you play?
Post by: Norwegian13 on October 21, 2015, 09:36:18 pm
You made a really good point, joer, and I'll agree with you that there are far too many people that do it just to have an authority over someone else.

But, my point is, don't think that everyone does that. I have met a lot of people that have had aims to become officers, and not because of the rank, but because they enjoy doing their duties. (hope restored :D) A lot of people do indeed go for the officer position just to be able to boss people around and have a nice uniform, and that is sad, but what they don't realize at the same time, is that the officer position can for some people essentially become a second job.

But yeah, I agree with your points though. I just wanted to point out that there are still some awesome officers out there that do it because they wish to do something for their regiment.
Title: Re: Which role will you play?
Post by: Shadow on October 22, 2015, 01:28:28 am
To piggyback, and this is very rare, that one would want to be a good officer so they can impact the community/communities they travel through.  That's very large picture - still another point to add.

American kepis would be pretty great if they were just a little taller, and had a leather frame... and were called "shakos".
