HI.
Yesterday I had a run with Incursion after I saw an Intereview of an FC
at Talking in station youtube podcast. I searched for it. I found it.
I made all the registrations, read all the rules, followed guidelines, etc…
and in less than two hours from start, I was in!!!
So, how it went?
There was a free first day SRP (Ship Replacement program) for newbros.
Awesome. That I did not lose my ship and hangered Fleet Captains even more…
Incursion is tuff. Your reflex to broadcast for shield must be less than 5 seconds.
I was full room targeted, and from yellow to red, there was one second.
Fortunately for me I was speeding with MWD on and Double invulns.
But I was also capped out and I didn’t realize untill FC told me.
At that point I was completely dry and I had to turn on Invuls and MWD again.
Logis and FC saved my day.
FC was faster than me to speak out before I could broadcast.
After such pressure my hand moves slower than normal, because of fear to make an error
and you are watching a lot of other stuff that to experienced players are normal.
I was keeping my anchor at range but somehow I was left behind because
I moved towards some targets to kill them faster instead of stay always near the anchor…
A lot of Hyperions were in fleet and it looks like I was the only newbro in fleet actually.
I Quit fleet shortly after because I felt my response time was paying for my old and slow
/casual attitude I got after being away for so much long time…
But I would like to know from newbros, how do they feel about it, if they feel it is
somewhat ok, or they feel they need perfect syncronization, or they lost a ship because of an error
broadcasting…
cheersz. fly safe.
