Get in game, hit insert, insert to get thrown in a random squad. Play a few of those then start looking for a squad you see up a lot or names that re-occur and see who they belong to.

Pretty much any squad in a platoon will have it's backbone and focus/"leadership" supplied by one outfit or another.

Wouldn't need to spend a penny, it can be slow to get going when playing free, but honestly you get your first 11 certs (takes no time at all) and get lvl2 nanoweave armour in whatever class you like playing and you are pretty much on par with anyone.

That's nice to know. Considering giving it a go - not played since Beta!
 
It's hugely improved since Beta, they're closing in on the right balance, the latest update has given air a reason and ability to co exist on the front lines now.

It's rather impressive having a tank column with AA attacking infantry and tanks while friendly and enemy air duke it out above you.
 
I think last night on Millar was one of my best runs in game. Fighting back and forth on the far eastern edge of Amerish (forget the base names). Had a while rampaging in a magrider (Vanu's hovertank for those not playing yet) with the italian outfit on TR (again forget the name) trying a foot zerg on a bio-lab (one of those with the infantry boost pads to get up to the aircraft platforms).

Mashed my way through 4/5 maxes and some random other infantry before I got my ticket punched :D Another run on the lightning against a break-out from their base when we pushed em back just lobbing volleys of tank shell into a couple of buildings for about... 8ish easy kills, our foot were able to get up close and keep em penned in then we got holed up in the spawn room for a bit before a max crash was used to break us out and gently roll them out of the base.

Enjoyed that muchly! :)


Is the hover stability airframe needed to be able to sit perfectly still mid-air in the scythe/mossie/reaver with guns pointed at the ground? Still can't do that.

OOOOOOOOOHHH, there's a hover mode...?

Played with a Platoon last night and it was really fun. Probably the most fun I've had on the game so far, might start playing it more often now.

Hover 3 on a Scythe is pure win for engaging ground targets, it will let you basically hover still.
 
Is there an OcUK outfit or one favored by the players of OcUK?

I was playing in a 3-4 squad platoon last night headed up by some German outfit, and it was awesome playing in an organised group for once, I want more of this!

I'm not sure there are any two OcUK'ers in the same outfit, they're definitely scattered to the winds in factions / server.
