There's 30+ in queue for the arena and I can't get a full mission...out number'd every time.

Please start queueing for some missions, we could get some 6 vs 6 if you wernt all in the arena queue :???:

get a minicon and face up the missions. it's the best chance you got. Wish I could help tho. Just leveled Black Convoy up ;(

A minicon at level 0 is too expensive

Sun Jul 29, 2007 8:37 am

Yup I have that problem at times. It also depends on the time of day, decepticons influx at certain times, autobots the other times.

I must admit i have found myself using the arena again these days. I keep seeing missions with 6 bots in and 0 cons with 5 minutes or less on the timer. In situations like that I would normally throw a guy in for the hell of it, but it is starting to seem more and more futile. I will always be a mission goer first and foremost, but i cant deny the allure of that little "arena" button..... :oops:

I just hope us low level cons are taking full advantage of this target rich environment!

you all need to get on IM so that when you see missions you can tell each other to join. I can spot out some 0-1 missions but most of my team's lvl 3 now.

it really isn't just the lower levels either;

I guess we just have to pick the battles we can win.... And accept defeat in the ones we can't.

It can't be hard. The 'bots did it for ages

Sun Jul 29, 2007 7:23 pm

'Cons need to stick together and start busting up these missions! There are just too many missions that are maxed out with Autobots and narry a loyal Decepticon to be found. I'd much rather pound out missions than queue the Arena anyday, so lets get out there and kick some 'Bot butt!

Too many autobots in missions for my liking.No way i am going to join one of ALL those 6bots/0cons missions.So outnumbered.My old freind is trying his best but its so hopeless.Just not fair we cant stay all night or day to wait till bots are gone,we got lifes!

When I made this topic there was 30+ decpticons in the arena queue and the missions were going off 6 autobots vs 2-3 decpticons...at that time we could have filled a lot of those up had people check the missions b4 the queue'd for the arena :sad:

Nobodys saying join missions that are 6/0 with 2 min's b4 it starts...but at least check them out and get in the ones that are 6/1, 6/2, with 15-20 mins left till they start...if every Con did this we'd all be spending a lot less time in CR :grin:

Wed Aug 01, 2007 3:46 pm

dont' be frightened away. what we lack in numbers, we make up for in strength. tell me who the stronger lvl 0 cons are and I"ll see what I can do to get them to join missions

Amen brother, I have posted several times before we need more cons in missions than arena queue. My fellow decepticons, like Omegacron says look for missions with a reasonable amount of time left, sure 15 mins with only 2 cons vs 6. Well join the mission, you've just added the 3rd con, so now it's 6 vs 3. Another con may then see and think "Hey there's 12 mins left and its 6 vs 3, I'll join in!" Now you've got the 4th con and the cycle will repeat.

Wed Aug 01, 2007 5:10 pm

I'm right there with you.... well in the 0-1's i am :grin:

Us low level cons have got to stop taking this lying down!

Wed Aug 01, 2007 5:54 pm

Need 3 more 10 min left|!!

nothings wrong with joining missions that are 6/0 to the bots, i got where i am today doing that.

the thing is once you get people over the fear of being the first con to join, there more likely to be the second or the third to join in other missions, it's like the bohr effect,

Hey everybody!

That's the way I do it. First the missions where we're outnumbered, then any missions with no cons but plenty of time left, then even numbers, and the few missions where we're outnumbering the bots last.

my guys are not so much taking it lying down as taking it over a barrel at the moment. much rather stick them in missions but the last 2 or 3 I've entered I've been the only Con vs a maxed out Bot side. :sad:

Thu Aug 09, 2007 6:20 pm

but thats a good thing! Build an avoider and reap the benefits....

Thu Aug 09, 2007 10:40 pm

Buh,avoider does nothing invested in speed in courage and still a clean bot makes more moves then me,dont see a point to play on.

Fri Aug 10, 2007 9:18 am

Even when outnumbered by 4 with a good setup you can get more xp then half the Autobot's facing you.

It's a little victory on its own.

You're exactly right, plus lvl 0 pay nothing to the cr
chamber. Nothing to lose.
