Title: Mercing for FCC
Post by: Matey on May 26, 2013, 11:01:01 am
Yar, we have many battles and while we usually do a pretty job at prime time of filling our rosters with faction members and friends we are happy to recruit mercenaries to fill out the roster! We pay quite well! If you apply for us and wish to receive payment please indicate as much in your application. If you do 1:1 you will receive (at least) the amount you requested. If you do poorly we may pay you less if you were asking for a large amount. If you do better than 1:1 we will pay you more than you requested and if you do exceptionally well or we achieve a particularly grand victory than we shall you pay you the maximum 1000 strat gold. For some battles at horrible time slots we also offer cRPG gold for attendance and good performance. I shall try to keep this first post up to date with upcoming battles including any special payment offers for said battles when there are any.

Check the last post(s) for new battles!

P.s. For all battles please show up on TS  (Voice.freecompanies.net) 20 minutes prior to the battle for rollcall or else you are highly likely to lose your position.

Lol, its funny I hadn't checked for an hour (was watching skyfall with trillian, disappointing - last 2 were better, too much blatant stupidity in this one for supposedly intelligent operatives) and just added you when i checked.  Got lucky there I guess.

I don't know what the experiences of other mercs have been, but I personally have been removed from an FCC roster for at least two separate large battles while I was level 30+ and in TS for roll call. You have too many favourites! Or you might just take people off who do poorly as a rule, I'm not sure. I just know that could be a pretty decent reason why you have had a problem filling rosters a few times lately. I'd like to merc for FCC sometime in the future, but it's just not worth it to sit in TS and then get removed last second for some other dude who comes in with two minutes to spare.

Hmm that sucks. We try really hard not to drop people who make rollcall but I guess it has happened a couple of times. I do so hate when people do that last minute sign up thing!

I applied for the new ayyike battle, but as I wrote in description I might be late for roll call. Because it is 07:41 in the morning for me. If you don't remove me before 5-10 mins I'll probably be there.

I might be there for roll call too, because I really like waking up early. But you know, just in case.

Just so you know, that's 11:41pm CST (middle of North America), on a Friday night. There's going to be a lot of NA mercs signing up.

:cry:

Sorry.  In all fairness, I see one hander strength build with no shield skill and no riding skill and low athletics with high ping and I just worry you will get spammed to death constantly.  Maybe some other fight, but unless we are really short on na mercs or eu mercs with builds that can handle high ping, you are probably not going to get hired.  Sorry again.
Title: Re: Mercing for FCC
Post by: Ronin on May 31, 2013, 09:08:10 pm
Of course hire anyone you want. But my class is not a weak one, you can be sure of that. Hit + nudge (+ kick as backup) can be devastating even with ping and can prevent you from falling victim to spams. STR whoring is of course the best part of it :wink:
Title: Re: Mercing for FCC
Post by: CrazyCracka420 on May 31, 2013, 09:20:09 pm
Generally unless merc support is low, the only people across the pond who get hired are archers and xbows (especially on sieges), any other class is pretty brutal with 150 ping.  But I know whenever I do roster roll call, mercs from across the pond are always appreciated, especially when it's at odd hours.

Yeah if some really good 2hers, polearms with low 100 ping come over they usually do fine too.  Its the shielders that I see most consistently having troubles doing well with high ping and a lot of that is weapon length.  That and HA, but that because HAs suck in strategus battles - not enough damage and using up good horses.

Swashbucklers are a new class. We'll see it's performance in inter-continental situations soon.

Cancelled application. Good night or whatever the time is it there.

I know, right Kesh!?! I am so tired of FCC kicking my ass in every battle with their superior skill... oh wait a second, that's totally fucking incorrect. Btw I personally think the posting in other people's recruitment threads thing is pretty gay, but since it's already started and there is no going back now I might as well argue that if you are undecided as to whom to play for, you should play for the 15-man faction instead of being one more mercenary in the gears of the 100-man faction bloc that is FCC.

Isn't that the second time you have posted that in this thread from a battle 3-4 weeks ago where we joked about the owner of the army reporting everyone for teamwounding when he was teamwounding everyone else?  Obsess much?  Do you want to add the tag gay lover of Kesh too when you enter the battle server?  I dont mind if you do, I find it most amusing how empty a life must be to obsess over another player in a game like this.

Hey bro, I'm really done insulting you in anything other than pure namesake so you can calm down on the defensiveness.

As for the "LOL ezst class in the game plated armor on cav!!!", first of all I have used plated armor ONCE for about 5 lives in ONE of those battles so please shush. Beyond that, you know that I kick your mercs ass on foot just as easily as on horseback. Hell, they could tell you that. That battle with the 91 kills I would say most of those kills were on foot with a warhammer using 21-15 build. I will start listening to you about how much better other people are than me when your mercenaries start routinely out-doing me by anything more than a few kills. Hell, looking at those battles, between all of them there are what... two examples of anyone of your 50 players in heavy yawshawns with FCC weapons outdoing my kills? Boy, I sure must suck, two of your 50 players have outdone me on one occasion out of 5! And I had to deal with double respawn timers from a game crash in two of those battles! Besides, if we're going to talk about easy classes you crutch even more strength than I do lol! Very hard to sit back and whine that a polearm needs to support you while you shoot people in plate for half their health from complete safety.

As for the battle that we lost because of poor timing during the day, I didn't lead that battle, Sandersson did.

Second to last thing here, I actually like most of your faction members, and if you don't know that then you're a wazzock. Calling you names is no different than Zero Party or Assitan. I don't even particularly dislike you; I just dislike a lot of the things you do (namely trying to make the game not fun for most of the enemies you have had, always making serious and negative posts on the forums, et cetera). Sure, it's ironic that I say that last part while making this serious and potentially negative post, but somehow my ratio of renown to infamy is much better than yours and I feel that speaks to the fact that people interpret our posts differently because they are inherently different.

You see, it's not true that we really "obsess" over you... if you get to the heart of it, it's really just the fact that you are like a pillar of the community that is easy to serve as a community reference point, an extreme end of a spectrum, a great caricature of what extreme commitment to a game looks like when it turns out wrong. You are easy to make fun of. Do you know how often we talk about you in Teamspeak? How often we furiously type about you in Steam and on our phones?

We don't.

The extent of of our obsession and communication about you often goes as far as "oh Kesh... wait, I'm obligated to say he's a my old friend". Truth is you're pretty much an alright person and I'm tired of riding on the "Kesh is a my old friend" train, because it has gotten old. Just another fad.

By the way I have been the gay_lover_of_Sandersson for about a week now, get with the times please.

Please don't TL;DR me you shitlord, or I will be severely saddened that I wasted 4 minutes writing this tripe.

Sigh more self-aggrandizing over a video game about how great you are, stopped reading after that.  Once again taking over one of our threads to let people know you are awesome.  Time to get over yourself buddy, its a game, a lot of people can do what you do with the class you play.  You shouldn't desperately seek for approval (what arrogance really amounts to) in a silly game like this over the internetz, taking yourself wayyyy too seriously for a supposedly "funny" guy.  Though to be honest very few people i have met actually think you are funny.  Sandersson has wry humor, ravens have great roleplay, even smoothrich trolls better than you - most of your post are just bland with a trollish elements that are not smart enough to be fully trollish.

Thanks for coming - did pretty amazing with that ping.  The +1 bodkins were because we expected to lose the first wave and didn't want to supply enemy with +1 gear, rather -1.  Most of our bigger attacks we will have +3 where we don't expect to lose, same goes with all the other equipment.  Sadly NA calradia is like the mexico of calradia where we cant all afford top quality gear for all our troops so depriving the enemy of gear they can reuse is pretty useful.

4:00 AM PST

Also ken456 has promised to lead the last two and possibly the first one as well.  We are guaranteed "frawress victory with no rosses" by the undefeated master general of strategus.  So basically guaranteed wins guys before the battles even start.  Plus it helps the first and biggest battle they are only armed, so weak and not enough gear we think (hence why we may not need ken456 for that fight).

Also, guaranteed strategus gold win or lose for just showing up to these battles - we would like to get a full roster for every one if you guys can show up for some good xp and fun fights.

Thanks to all the mercs for the 4 battles today - everything went really smoothly and had a lot of fun.  Everybody was great about following orders, helped a lot with engineering and conserved/wasted weapons/smoke bombs when we needed them to.  Made each battle really fun with loads of xp.  Looking forward to more battles soon with you guys.  :D

Couple more battles today for those who can pull themselves away from rome 2.  First is at 9:49 pm est and the second is at 1:08 am est (sorry, some idiot slow marched and attacks us at 1 in the morning on a weekday night).  Should be fun fights.

Great, would I rather be headshot by Phantasmal or headshot by Dbrookz? What a choice.  I think I'll stay right out of it ;)
The only thing going for it is Desire's not on the roster yet!

I don't know what the experiences of other mercs have been, but I personally have been removed from an FCC roster for at least two separate large battles while I was level 30+ and in TS for roll call. You have too many favourites! Or you might just take people off who do poorly as a rule, I'm not sure. I just know that could be a pretty decent reason why you have had a problem filling rosters a few times lately. I'd like to merc for FCC sometime in the future, but it's just not worth it to sit in TS and then get removed last second for some other dude who comes in with two minutes to spare.

Same here but sometimes I get removed a hour before the battle. I would sign up the day before when the battle shows up in the list.

It's a bit funny for me that on NA side you have to write post here to hire ppl to fight. On EU in prime time it's hard to get in the roster...

It's more of an attempt to get the best of the best so we can be selective instead of just getting 50 scrubs.

Yesterday I called roll for a battle for my faction and had 60 people show up to my TS3, many more bothering me in Steam, and like an extra 30 people signed to the battle but not accepted.

We've got folks. Just a lot of them aren't so great at the game.

:( You know it's a horrible time and  reinforced it.
In fact SpryGarem_BlackCompany abandon this village and agree with me to take it a few days.So there was not a real battle at first,the time was not a problem too.Then Keshian reinforced it after I attecked it.
And I sent a message to Keshian.If he wants a real battle I can give this village back then let's change a good time like this :

:| Such horrors were supposed never to happen. But now, we must face the reality, it's real a horrible time for both side.My original plan this was just a 5 minutes fief trade. Whatever,enjoy this XP.

50 scrubs don't exist. There are like ten in NA, and they're usually decent at strat.

FCC pays well. Requested $100 in Chuck E. Cheese tokens and was promptly payed in the mail. All I had to do was give them my PIN and social security number. 10/10, would apply for again.
