Oh god that was a thing
BBG community 4lyfe.
45e merge into LG slowly dried compPretty much. Especially since the 45e members that joined had major power in that regiment. I pushed the limits so hard because I knew they wouldn't risk kicking me out, thus losing the stack and possibly risked losing the league.
It all went downhill once 45e became toxic trolls because had a lot of fun doing it. Before they realized this they were actually not toxic at all. "Troll regs before this were less toxic and moreso about having internal fun trolling each other. Other kids copied them/adopted their ways and members. Even classically "polite" regiments had a shift in the way they interacted with others. Gradually changed the community from a politer pride based competitive scene to a Ad Hom personal attack based social scene. It became less about having fun and more about beating another person at all costs. Before this it was moreso about playing the game with your team on average. You would randomly go around and ask people why they joined x reg and their answers often were "its better than x" or "To beat x lol"
Increased turnover rates, increased tribalism, increased toxicity, personal attacks that went way too far and transcended the online realm.
All this contributed to game decay and reduction in player counts
also the 63e monopoly was bad for overall player numbers. If you unironically think that it was good for the game you don't understand economics/are lying to people who don't understand it.
I think that the introduction of meager amounts of money to try to galvanize competition might have been bad in the long run, as it forced leaders to start an old gen arms race all the time which constantly spread the sentiment of how people hated the game and were only here for the money that wasn't even a lot. This likely discouraged people who really did love the game. Also inflated the numbers to make the community think the game was doing better than it really was.
The older player base also left because they grew up and don't have the time to play every day after school. I remember that competitive regs would have 1v1s nearly every day and that members would ask me "can we do a 1v1 or gf today" basically every day I hadn't scheduled something for a certain day within the week. Such a thing happening now likely is far too great a strain on people's schedules.
that 45e merge into the LG was pretty fucking nasty ngl fuck whoever did that shitThe 45e guys needed a home since the reg was kinda in shambles. The idea of merging was a meme at first, but then it actually became a real thing.
45e merging was a "moment" but I don't think it really offset the comp community since the community was already suffering from regiments disbanding and people leaving long before the merge. As you say Windflower it was all part of the bandwagon movement. I mean Jackie joining the 71st was also part of that bandwagon era but I feel that it served more good than anything. The 71st was trash before Jackie ever was there. Period. Like Ive seen the NEC videos. It truly was bad, but when a really talented player decides to join a ok casual regiment...yeah I think it does more good for the community. Now I am not saying the 45e merging was for the best of the community god no, but I will say that we have seen both good and bad sides of the bandwagon mentality.that 45e merge into the LG was pretty fucking nasty ngl fuck whoever did that shitThe 45e guys needed a home since the reg was kinda in shambles. The idea of merging was a meme at first, but then it actually became a real thing.
I still remember all the 45e guys gave Russian a bunch of shit in the first couple of events. We would mock poor Russian when he screamed. Thank god Russian isn't an angry bear anymore.

Back then, they just were more players, and they were more invested in the game possibilities.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhckuhUxcgA

Yeh Loyally in NW has be non existent at times over the past 3 years with comp players. In EU it seems like good players were bouncing around at times to new regs frequently. NA started a bandwagon trend after 71st (Not blaming 71st because they were bad before Jackie and Zzehth joined like Bean pointed out) but when a good reg formed most of the good players went there because they wanted to shit on everyone without ever losing it seemed like (This wasn't always the case). I remember people joining 58e & 71st for example because they wanted to play with the best regs. I'm sure they had some or few friends in there but very few people wanted to help build regs to become top tier after 2015 (except PSG since their peak was in 2016). Of course 2017 on its impossible to do that without recruiting good players to a pub reg since the skill gap between pubs and comp players is ridiculously far apart.Back then, they just were more players, and they were more invested in the game possibilities.and people were more « loyal » to their regiment, not like all the randoms nowaday

We were young, had ttime, and were oblivious to reality. Now most of us are in or graduated college, bogged down by draining schedules and responsibilities. There were far more people playing, people who were willing to take risks and do stupid shit for the hell of it. Our younger selves had stamina, efficiency, and a sort of willingness to just have fun while letting most drama slide.
It isn't like that anymore.
We realized that the inescapable march of time was gaining on us. Sooner or later, people would have to move on. The game wasn't as much fun anymore, and we decided to either migrate to other games or leave the whole machine to waste. That's what most of did, but for some, they just couldn't bare leaving behind the very game that once had made them so happy. We are those people, and now look at us. Miserable, depressed, anxiety-ridden, and awaiting the inevitable collapse of civilization due to greed. Things back then may have not been all that great, but compared to now, it was paradise on Earth.
There is something in almost every child and adolescent that makes everything seem much better and brighter than it actually is. It allows them feel enagaged, important, and loved. We had the capacity to feel connected, a capacity that no longer exists after multiple jaded experiences. That spark of life that was once strong within all of us, can never again be reignited. Soon enough, we'll all be dead, and the remains of what was once this beautiful game will disappear along with us. Just remember, that for a small but incredible time in our lives, we were once so incredibly excited to shoot and stab at pixels on an average-looking indie game.

The best leaders grew their core sustainably - that’s why your regs always stagnated

I also think that non-regimental events like WPC played a part in the final downfall.
well I think the main problem was people put WPC stuff over regimental events. Competitive Regimental stuff pretty much dies every time one of those leagues starts upI also think that non-regimental events like WPC played a part in the final downfall.
The toxicity of people fighting over a supposed $1000 prize pool didn’t help the community. The iterations afterwards were less toxic but had the same kind of effect.
2014 was the start of the best years of nw because thats when i joinedmopel = nR9 nuub
I am curious as to who you guys honestly felt was the most impactful to the community as a whole, not just the competitive scene. I recall 1stEPI Gunny and 5arge having a huge impact on how regiments would be run. I also know that people like Tico, Jorge, Millander, Kolakhan, and others who came out of the 1stEPI/similar regiments, had huge impacts as well. I think honestly the Prussian Army was hands down one of the most influential group of people for the NA side of NW because they really started the organization of events, how regiments were run, and how the community SHOULD interact with each other.

Probably most impactful overall, also most impactful negatively- Karth
Most impactful positively, for me at least- Jackie Chan. Showed me what was possible in the game while he was in 63e.
Lol I have too much knowledge about this game lol hahahahahhahaha I guess my perspective covers a longer period of time lol

Bandwagons have always formed from 2+ regiments having their key leaders retire causing them to join with a reg that hasn’t had that issue. If people spent less time complaining about the strength of regiments and more time building and developing a loyal core there would be less bandwagons!This.Quoteretirement of key leaders low key had a huge impact
People lost a stable home regiment and either quit or moved to a regiment with a set following and leadership.
For example the 1a Svea run that happened recently started as a stack and contender but quickly fell apart due to lack of interest and stability

one thing I liked about my group was that we didn't have any large group of outsiders join that thought they were better than us. I didnt really interact with the community for the majority of my time and we just stuck to ourselves, and i think building our own small and dedicated community is what made it so much fun for meYeah there is something about starting up organically with your own people that hits different.

> is actually completely fake and talks shit to me on FSE
hahahahaha people like you ;D
What made that period so much fun was there was actually a lot of opportunity. Back in 2012/13, anyone could make a regiment and make a success of it because there was such a large number of players. You wouldn't have to ask people to leave their regiment to join yours, do grubby deals or merge to keep a high attendance, you could just hop on a public server and spam some recruitment messages and you'd get people replying almost every time.
I think a huge part of what made this era fun was that the skill gap was far smaller than it is now. There were so many regiments that there were plenty of skill tiers and you'd always find regiments of your size and strength to fight. Regiments actively spent time training up their own players rather than trying to recruit already skilled ones. This made for much more stable communities as most players were loyal to the regiment they first joined. The smaller skill gap meant that new players weren't completely out of their depth and unable to break through; if your line had 5 good meleers, just teaching the rest of the line how to do basic blocks was enough to hold your own in a linebattle. Formations and leading felt like more of a factor too, and I think the whole community was a lot more interested in a degree of roleplaying. Nowadays it seems basically impossible to mix the roleplay aspect with the competitive one because the best players are tired of standing in lines and doing formations. Back in 2013 they still felt fresh for most people.
These days it seems like a zero sum game - there's only so many players left for regiments to suck up. I can't see how anyone would build a regiment from scratch in 2019, with so few new players to recruit. If you did try to start a regiment you'd presumably have to rely on contacts from previous regiments and use your influence in the community to get the right cliques and groups on board, which leads to instability as they'll be on to the next flavour of the month regiment when it pops up.

I mean not just RSL I mean a totally different group. A new group. I used to do that a little bit. 2ndBRM and a few others here and there but you gotta do you though :)
You see you kinda have to find a new regiment to counter the fact you did kinda leave the PSG for a bandwagon reg :-\ but I won't go into details about that now
Sigh sadly I kinda do the know the details about the 92nd because you know you had Voakes and Lycan joined the 5th that was a sgt in in the 92nd oh and bobmikbooboo plus we can talk about how several other named players were in there (Redwall I believe was in there,Hellomoto, and Catbutts) . 92nd was a bandwagon regiment. It was, for a moment, the best regiment NA.

Excuse me? Do you honestly think you're too good to join my regiment which has been disbanded since Sunday? Well, you know what? We def don't want you anyways, consider your invitation rescinded indefinitely.
Awh Godfreid :'( I don't think I'm too good for your regiment I just wouldn't have fit well with your regiment, same goes with the LG, just when there's only 3-4 regiments left there's not much option in regard to what you prefer in a regiment[close]
I mean you could always join a regiment that is not as good and help train them to get better. We have more than 3-4 regiments out there in NA. I mean we saw what you did with the PSG....but no I get it you know making new friends is hard plus you know time restraints with all the kickboxing and shit you do...I get it.

And yeah it's not really something you can go into detail since you don't really know at all anybody in the PSG or had any inclination of how the situation was at the time. It's not like I turned my back on them, John and I trained them from the ground up for 2+ years and led them day in and day out for 4-5 events a week, you ever do that? It was time for me to step down long story short. John had assumed most of the leadership responsibility and I was continually decreasing in activity and interest for the game, I was and still am friends with the people in the PSG. Plus they went on to find success without me! Also the 92nd "stack" was gone in less than a month, I find it funny how people call this:a bandwagon.

And I just explained it to you so know you are informed about the PSG.

No I never said any of that, you are putting words into my mouth. A bandwagon regiment is only defined by the bandwagon phenomena: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwagon_effect , it's more for the reason you join the regiment to begin with not that it's defined by being retired and leaving a regiment for another, that has nothing to do with it. You are also changing your answer now, "somewhat" stacked? We were losing to League 2 regiments..What I am saying is that it was stacked then and it became stacked somewhat again when it reformed. You are defining a band wagon regiment as being good. I am saying that a band wagon regiment is a regiment in which people join either by coming out of retirement or leaving another regiment for that one. This is indeed what you are saying happened. The 92nd disbanded the first time. It came back. You rejoined. This is an example of a bandwagon. You did what you call other people out for all the time.SpoilerAnd I just explained it to you so know you are informed about the PSG.

The Bandwagon Effect typically refers to belief systems in the context of social conformity. When we joined the 71st reform under RussianFury most of us did it because we wanted to have fun and see what it would be like, not because we believed in the superiority of anything and everything 71st (Vae Victis ree). In another example, the 93rd reform in 2018 was mostly just Nick messaging his entire friends list and convincing something like 80 people to follow him personally because honestly Nick is a nice guy and funny as hell. I can’t think of a lot of people who joined because to not do so would have violated some quasi social norms. I’m sure somebody in that 80 player group probably thought like that but it wasn’t anyone I knew there personally.
Asch’s conformity experiments don’t apply here either. Nobody I can recall was ever socially pressured to join or stay in the supposed bandwagon regiments I was a part of. Maybe it happened but it was rare enough that I can’t find an example off the top of my head, at least for the regiments I was a part of. The article you reference that supposedly proves your point (spoiler alert: swing and a miss) states that information cascades cause fragile behavior traits and lead to fads, but I’d be more than hesitant to call most of the “bandwagons” I was a part of a fad. 3eVolt was well established by the time band wagoners like myself joined, and stayed established for a time after stunning losses to the LG. The 71st name carries enough weight that when it reformed people such as Tammo and Who~ came out of the woodwork for a groupfight or two. And as previously mentioned the 93rd of 2018 was basically NickCole’s entire friends list transposed onto a regiment roster. Joining a stacked regiment after considering all options because you want to learn more about melee and want to be competitive or want to play with friends that compose the stack doesn’t equate to the Bandwagon Effect. Here, I’ll put it in terms you can actually understand:
NW Boondwagoons =/= Bandwagon Effect
Could it be considered groupthink to join a stacked regiment? Debatably, but it’s notable that groupthink is a separate phenomenon from the Bandwagon Effect in the context of psychology or sociology.

I personally just attribute it to the fact that we were all a lot younger with way more time to devote to games. You had leaders who were really interesting and intriguing and friendships that kept you on teamspeak all day. I remember hanging with Karth, Tico, Mack, etc. Each one had a really cool style of leading that each suited their players strengths and weaknesses.tfw your weakness is everything so you gotta find the farthest hill away from the enemy spawn to delay the round
I recently attended an LB with the LG after years of inactivity and it's definitely a whole new world. When I last attended the LG, Russian and Waste still had a pretty commanding aura, but this time around it was like the teamspeak was always chatty and I couldn't even hear the orders a lot. This is a far cry from the priority speaker times of older regiments and no chatting until the round was over.

As pointed out earlier, I think updates would have helped, or better yet, changing the meta to keep the competitive scene changing. Look at CSGO for an example on how simple meta changes have brought fundamental changes to the game that kept people interested.
I feel like regiments that actually had a semblance of discipline to them made the game fun. For me it brought me back to the days in the 29th or when I used to have my own regiments. On top of that you had people who knew how to actually run events....I look around now and well...most of the decent events are casual.You get tired of 20 min of either spawn camping or sitting in dead chat after awhile

Idk about that. Season 6 was the last NANWL where you could consider the competitive scene as diverse and it felt stale halfway through. It was pretty much over after that.I feel like regiments that actually had a semblance of discipline to them made the game fun.

Which one? 63e events? NANWL? I am talking about events like Kolakhans or Eatjello. On top of that, you are welcome to your perspective, I respect that but most of my events that I ran in the casual scene went fairly well. I used my own custom maps which most people loved. I used rules that every regiment agreed on. I am not referencing 63e events here btw. Now if we want to go over why I think that I ran a very successful season of NANWL we can but I feel like that would be a better conversation to have either in pms or on steam. Considering you don't consider them to be apart of what made 2012-2016 very fun ;) gotta stay on topic champ.
I ran season 6. Its not my job to keep it fun, rather it was my job to run the league. The entire reason it was diverse was thanks to me. (yeah i am taking that credit because I went around to each regiment and got them to sign up plus I went over the rules with them. ) You know the beauty about people is that some will say that it was really good and others wont. For it being stale well perhaps if I had kept PSG and USMC in league one than it would have been much more fun. Sadly JDF and others came to me begging to be switched. To simply say its Papabeans fault it went stale...well my influence was on setting up that season and making sure it ran smoothly. If I recall, IF I had shown bias than the 63e would have won at the end of the season since they had the most points, however to make it more interesting we decided to do a winner take all. Meaning the top four regiments of league one would 1v1 each other again for the title. And if I recall correctly 3evolt won, yes? So if anything I would understand that the overall time spent on the league was far too long. Considering league 3 had ended like a month or two before the end of the whole thing. However, season 6 was hands down the last time the NA side of the community has shown up as much as they did to a event on the competitive side. The fact that because of season 5 having 1 league and Season 6 had 3 leagues, I increased player participation within the competitive community tremendously. Not a single person on here can claim from the NA side they have brought more casual regiments to a competitive event.Idk about that.

While I don't doubt that you had some influence over the amount of regiments in Season 6, saying you had a major impact is debatable. Comparing it to the performance of Season 5 is setting a rather low bar as well. It was legitimately the fucking worst season of NANWL; the bastard child of the group. Karth decided to fly away, Beech fucked off to god knows where, and Cheesey was desperate to even hold anything together. We went weeks without a single notice at the start because Karth responded to zero messages, and so began the cycle of sitting around, doing literally nothing. There were maybe 5 matches for a regiment for that whole season, and half of them fucking dropped due to scheduling differences and piss poor communication. No one wanted to do that, and most were convinced that was it for NW. Of course, once we got over our teenage girl tantrums, everyone decided to come back and have one last fucking orgy of cancer. Season 6 was definitely the last hurrah, but calling it one of the more exciting seasons is stretching it.

Also, the USMC would have been gangbanged to the fourth dimension in League 1, no question. We were a group of bot fighting morons with the intellectual capacity and attention span of fucking goldfish. We could barely make it through the season, beat the 45e by pure luck, and then proceeded to get raped by the PSG. If you spent more than 20 minutes in our TS during an event and watched us train, you would have put us in League 3. 45e and PSG in League 1? Sure, but not the USMC, not by a longshot.
The only reason PSG beat USMC was cause I wasnt there for that event obviously.

Fanboy? Lets get this straight. He was a half baked hippie who attended out of some sort of moral obligation, and I was a racist asshole out to release my teenage angst. We never got along, ever. As a matter of fact, most of the staff wanted me gone, and frankly they had very good reasons to. I got a pass on it by basically begging not to be kicked out. That's right, 15 year old me crying like a bitch over this, imagine that (it isn't hard). I was a dick to practically all of them even after that and nearly got demoted on three occasions for not shutting my big mouth. The reason I'm defending them is because everything said in the above post was true. Our core had maybe 3 great players at the start, the rest were average or garbage. The regiment would have never made it through League 1, and I'm still surprised at how well we even did in League 2.SpoilerWhile I don't doubt that you had some influence over the amount of regiments in Season 6, saying you had a major impact is debatable.

You keep saying "we". Lets get a few things straight about that season of league. The following regiments would not have touched league had I not talked to them:
4th Kings German Artillery
70th
1st Irish Brigade
84th York & Lancaster Regiment of Foot EU / NA
1stRM
58th Regiment of foot
21st (Royal North British Fusiliers) Royal Regiment of Foot
19e
17th Finnish LifeGuard Regiment
16th Middlesex (London Irish) Rifle Volunteer Corps
13th Foreign Legion
79th "Queens Own" Cameron Highlanders
104th
22nd
Yes winters all of these regiments would not have touched the comp side had I not talked to them. I am sure of that. I am saying that because of the amount of time and effort that I put into it, the return for everyone was much greater than what had been anticipated. While I am glad you have your perspective, you wont change mine and those that had a really fun time in that season.
I am glad that USMC comment got under ya skin a little bit ;) gotta make sure the JDF fan boys still are out there.
