Ok so I thought it was time you got some info on what kind of place UGAF is from our members. Below is a Q&A session I held with Wookie, one of our senior and most respected members. He gives an honest insight in to the life of a UGAF member.
What is your name?
My name is Ian and my general clan/game name is Wookie
What is your role within UGAF?
Hah! Depends. Officially i'm a machine gunner in Bravo 1 (aka FSG) and lead mission maker/beta guy. All missions have to be checked by me to make sure theres no game breakers on mission nights. Unofficially, i'm an annoying git. I'm sure the others will agree.
Do you enjoy it?
Like a rusty spade up the nose. But seriously, yeah. I wouldn't bother if i didn't enjoy it.
Is there any other role that you would like to try out?
I wouldn't mind a mechanized/armoured role as gunner/driver.
What first attracted you to UGAF?
Friendly atmosphere. Was originally in a clan called 3MERC along with a few others currently residing here in UGAF (eh Recon?). We liked our time doing joint op's and it was eventually decided for 3MERC to merge with UGAF. In the end it was less of a merge but more of an absorption. We are UGAF, resistance is futile.
Can you name a time during your stay with UGAF that you have thought "I love this community!"?
Honestly, no. There have been too many to count.
What is the general atmosphere in UGAF? Are its members approachable if you have an issue?
It's usually a pretty good atmosphere though we all do have off days. It gets sorted however then we start pewpew'ing enemies.
What is UGAF in your opinion, like in missions? Are they disciplined or are they really laid back?
Sort of in between now. It used to be more laid back but personally it was too laid back and it was affecting all missions we were doing (usually by dying due to stupid actions) with a healthy dose of Gman twisting our arms and carefully planned training sessions from some of out instructors we've shaped up nicely, yet still have a laugh.
Describe the best experience you have had during your time with UGAF. It can be from a mission, time on the public server or just plain chatting on Teamspeak.
Thats a hard one. The banter on ts3 is always really good (and quite hilarious too), plus we play alot of other games together when we aren't doing arma2 stuff. So basically, the general experience of UGAF is what makes it worth it for me.
If you have donated to help UGAF stay up and running. Do you feel like its worth it?
It's worth it. From donations gathered we have managed to upgrade the dedi server and allow improvements to various other aspects like the forums and ts3. Also props to Gman for making UGAF what it is.
So that was Wookies perspective on things. I'll let you make up your own mind about us from watching 'UGAF TV' or by hanging out with us on teamspeak and on the public server.
Next time we will have either Cpl Goldsabre or the man himself Maj G-Man doing a Q&A session.
Take care,
Recon
