    Why did you choose XoO?
    In the past few weeks, I've been floating around, joining various outfit public platoons to see how I liked fighting with them, their overall strategy (and how they communicate that to their nonoutfit platoon mates), and how much fun I had. While many times, the platoon that I joined was great, I found that I really enjoyed my time when I joined XoO. If I could summarize it, I'd have to say that it is nice people working towards a goal, and frequently achieving that goal. Also, because Lancer squads are awesome.
    Localization:
    North America
    Activity level?
    15ish* - I realize that you require a minimum of 15 hrs a week and I should be able to be on for that amount of time generally; however, there are going to be weeks where I am unavailable for any number of reasons... (Continued on normal playing times)
    What are your normal play times? (be general ex 6pm -10pm)
    Generally, I'm on around primetime 8 PM - 12 AM server time.

    (Cont. from Activity Level) - such as moving to a new city, vacation, work, etc. If that's enough to disqualify me, that's totally fine, as it is your prerogative.
    What is your favorite class to play?
    Medic
    What is your favorite vehicle to use?
    Sunderer
    You’re standing at a Sunderer, an enemy tank approaches over the nearest hiiltop. What do you do?
    Well, first thing is that I'd call it out both ingame and over the microphone. After that, it'd be highly situational: am I all alone trying to defend my Sunderer? If so, I'd probably just hop in an drive away, trusting that I could outrun the enemy tank before he had a shot of killing either me or my Sunderer. On the other hand, if the Sunderer was in a critical point and I was surrounded by tons of people, I'd ask them to help out to destroy this tank before it eliminated our spawn point. Then, I'd jump to HA and start plinking away.
    You’re standing at a Sunderer, an enemy air-unit approaches in the distance. What do you do?
    Once again, I'd call the air unit out both ingame and over the microphone and once again, after that, it'd be situational. If it's a 1/3 Liberator (that's not hacking of course), I'd probably ignore it until it actively started shooting at me, at which point I'd jump in one of the turrets (if it is my Sunderer, then I have a G40-F as one of my turrets) and scare it away. If it was an ESF or gunned Liberator, I'd actively ask people around me (if there are people around me) to switch to some sort of lock-on launcher to scare it away. On the other hand, if I'm alone and it's a 1v1, I can probably still take it on in my Sunderer and successfully scare it away; however, more than 1 ESF or Liberator and I'd probably try to find some cover with my Sunderer.
    In your opinion, which vehicle is most important to the game?
    I may be biased in this opinion (because it's my favorite vehicle) but the Sunderer is the best vehicle in the game. While it might not have the destructive force of a Magrider or the quickness of a lightning, it can still do relatively well in a fight. The one biggest thing that makes the Sunderer the most important vehicle in the game is the fact that it can act as a mobile spawnpoint. The success or failure of any assault or defense rests in how quickly forces can redeploy to their positions. If there is a base 300 meters to your rear, that's 300 meters in which the people that spawn at that base are not contributing to the fight. A Sunderer stationed behind a rock 25 meters to your rear will make it so that any troops redeploying can quickly be combat ready without the long jog. In addition, their ability to resupply tanks in the field (depending on certification) and allow for infantry to change their class really makes the Sunderer the most important vehicle in the game.
    In your opinion, which class is most important to the game?
    This one is much more of a throw up then the most important vehicle because all of the classes are extremely important. Heavy Assault are the shock troops and one of the more versatile classes, allowing them to deal with both infantry and vehicles. Engineers, also extremely versatile, are very important in ensuring vehicles and turrets are repaired and their AV turret can destroy tanks at extreme ranges. Medics, while extreme proficient at killing with their ARs (HV-45 rocks) can also be the difference between whether an assault succeeds or fails because of their ability to revive and heal injured teammates. Infiltrators, while much more situational, can turn the tide of a battle by hacking a vehicle terminal and spawning a Sunderer which can then act as a spawn point in an assault or they can hack turrets to prevent the enemies from using them. Light Assault is probably the least useful of the classes, though they do excel as squad leaders (placing their squad beacons in hard to reach places) as well as C4 bombers against short sighted tanks or Sunderers. MAXs are, effectively, infantry tanks and are an important component of any assault but heavily excel at clearing the enemy presence in the air.

    So, in conclusion, I'd say that Heavy Assault is the most important class but, unlike the Sunderer which can operate relatively well without other tanks as support, the heavy assault requires support from the other infantry classes to be successful at all and each class fills an important need in any battlefield.
    Which of these traits most accuratly reflects your approach to gaming.

    The next step in the application process will be for you to get onto our Teamspeak server and then hop into game with us. Once you're in-game We'll get you an Outfit invite and set you to recruit status. After a few play sessions we'll complete the interview process and you'll become a full member.

    I've PM'd you the information for our Teamspeak server, log in and look for one of our Planetside 2 Command Team, any of whom should be able to help you further.
