Hello again!
Well i'm back and finally after a huge amount of nagging and some verbal abuse I have managed to get G-Man, UGAF's founder to answer my Q&A questions! Enjoy!
Q. You are the person who created UGAF. Who has spent hours making the website, its forums and also making sure we have a game server when we need it. What inspired you take on this massive work load?
A.I only really got into online gaming in 2006. I joined a clan that played BF2412, Stevethom was my recruiter. The clan started playing Project Reality and I got pretty hooked and joined a tournament with steve. I was later told by another member to try Armed Assault. At first I really could not get my head around it but after some one to one training from a veteran player I loved it especially with ACE. To be honest I actually started playing with ACE. Myself and stevethom joined an Armed Assault tournament and got quite high up in the ranks and controlled large squads.I then decided I would like to have a go at running my own clan. Then I decided it has to be the best at what it does. That's how I roll.
Q,When you came up with the basic principle of UGAF; What did you want it to be a community or a military realisim unit?
A. I decided I wanted both. A realism unit where I could use both my military and clan background to create an enjoyable yet disciplined community focusing on tactics and teamwork.
Q.Do you still think we meet the basic principles you wanted when you setup UGAF?
A. Yes I do. I always want keep that balance between gameplay and real life.
Q. Communitys and realisim units alike change as they gain more experiance and also take on more members. Compared to how UGAF was say 12 months ago how would you describe it now?
A. Wow the last 6 months has seen a mass influx of recruits and they seem to be coming in weekly. I'd say we have doubled in size in the last year.
Q. Has the change been for the better?
A. I'd say so. We have had our share of incidents and ups and downs. But it always sorts it self out. All it takes is a shovel and some desert.
Q.Can you describe a time when you've been with the community and thought "This was a really good idea G. I'm glad I setup UGAF!"?
A. Everytime we play an organised mission.
G-Man also added something on the end however for the sake of UGAF's image I shall not reveal its contents for fear of a harsh stabbing to the face. Bad publicitiy never goes down well.
So UGAF has been busy over the past month or so. We've taking on some new members and got them intergrated in to our ranks nicely.
We are once again looking at getting a campaign going with UGAF's HQ & Mission Makers working closley developing a plausible plot and determining how long the campaign will be. Stay tuned for more updates on this!
April is a special month. Our members get promoted from being grunts to grunts with privlages. So make sure if you have come in to contact with a UGAF member please get in contact with either there squad leader or HQ and let us know if they have helped you or just generally made UGAF look awesome!
Thats all for this post.
Take care,
Recon
