Planetside 2 ApplicationHow old are you? 24 In-Game Name? Praetor Do you have Teamspeak 3 and a mic? Yes Why did you choose XoO: I’m a Planetside EU vet from Werner and also played on Emerald from late 2003 to early 2006. This is when I first heard of Xen, and quickly realised it was one of the more professional and mature outfits within Planetside. However due to commitments to my outfit (Vanu Corp) on Werner at the time, I did not apply. Skip forward a few years, and here we are. I have been following Planetside 2 since its announcement and haven’t been more excited to play a game ever. I CANNOT wait! I’m so excited the inner geek in me has made the biggest comeback of the century!! A few months back I saw the Xen recruitment post on the Planetside Universe forums and immediately decided to check out your site. I was really impressed and was shocked when I learned you guys had been around actively all these years. It’s rare & very refreshing to see. My initial reaction was to put in an application right away, as I knew firsthand what Xen got up to in the original Planetside and since then it’s clear the outfit has gone from strength to strength. I want to be a part of that. However I wanted confirmation that EU players will be able to play on the NA servers just in case you guys decide not to have a dedicated EU branch. After giving it even more thought, I’d say roughly 80% of my enjoyment from the original Planetside wouldn’t have happened if I wasn’t in a good outfit. I really want to get the most enjoyment out of Planetside 2 as I believe it will be an amazing game with a long shelf life, and I genuinely believe that there wouldn’t be a better outfit to make this happen . Xen has got a nice website with active forums, mature members, use of voice comms, an emphasis on teamwork and longevity. I haven’t got a doubt in my mind that Xen will be one of, if not THE most suited outfit for my personality and play style. Previous Gaming Experience: I started off gaming around the age of 8 on the Sega Mega & SNES. I worked my way through pretty much every console up until the release of the Playstation 2. It was at this point where I got into PC Gaming. My first online FPS was Team Fortress. The moment I knew I was playing against other people around the world on my shitty 56k dial up connection, was the end of console gaming for me. I haven’t owned a console since. Online games that I have played avidly include Team Fortress, Counterstrike, Day of Defeat, Medal of Honor Allied Assault, Call of Duty series, Battlefield series, Lineage 2, World of Warcraft, Planetside, WWII Online and Warhammer Online. There have been many others, but these are the games I have played for more than a few months at a time, sometimes even years. I’m competitive in the games I play. I like to get involved with the community as well. In the above games especially, I was always in a clan/outfit/guild & strived to be the best by signing up to various leagues, attempting to perform server firsts and whatnot. What will you contribute to the guild? I think first & foremost I’m a team player. I demonstrated that in most of the online games I’ve played, including the original Planetside. I think I’d also bring across a “fun†attitude to the outfit. It’s not really the word I’m looking for, but I think it sums it up well enough. I like to get involved on forums, I’m not a bore on voice & am looking at Xen as somewhere I can call “home†& hopefully end up making some good friends. Localization: EU Do you have a referral? - A little bit about yourself? My names Dan, I’m 24 years old & am from Surrey in England. I currently work full time for the mobile operator Vodafone within a technical role. Obviously I’m into my gaming, but aside from that I’m really into my football (soccer) and tennis on the weekends. Activity level? Roughly 40 hours each week. Do you have a high speed internet connection and a good computer? Yes Have you applied to the Planetside 2 usergroup? Yes
Great application! EU players will be able to play on NA servers, but it remains to be seen if this will be a viable option because of network delay. If lag turns out to be a problem, the Planetside Officers will reassess the situation to see how many of our members are affected, and whether or not we have a viable candidate to step up for an EU leadership role. The final step to becoming a full member is a voice interview where one of us will ask you a few more in-depth questions and then we'll answer any that you may have. I've pm'd you the information for our Teamspeak server. My availability varies, but it's usually between 5pm to 3am CST. Hope to see you soon!
When England says they are a "team player", be prepared to suffer under the imperialist regime. You can have your bloody tea and your bloody taxes! (Just kidding. Welcome dude.)
Denied due to lack of response/activity. If you would like to re-apply to Xen of Onslaught in the future please do so.
