Previous Planetside experience: None on Planetside - Joined Planetside II after winning a prize-draw and entered the beta, then initially didn't play from December 2012 - June 2013 due to University commitments, incompatible laptop and awful internet connection.

Outfit history (if applicable): PCG (PC Gamer) - Oct 2013 - Dec 2013, left due to own inactivity in-game and other commitments that affected my play-time. Been lone-wolfing it ever since.

Other (online) games you have played / achievements: World of Warcraft, top 3 Guilds on my server (Qual'Thalas, Alliance) in competitive raiding scene, League of Legends Gold I ranked ladder (and climbing).

Do you have a mic? Yes/No: Yes - although Mumble (and my PC, randomly) believe it is being removed every 2 seconds, making completing my Mumble set up impossible though I'm working on resolving it. Headset works fine outside of that.

What you hope to bring to BRTD: A calm, attentive attitude ready to listen and do as I'm told, a general enjoyment of blasting enemy air with flak when others would call it dull and a strange affection for sticky grenades as well as the will to play in any class/vehicle - though I would strongly recommend against allowing me to fly.

What made you choose this outfit over any other organized outfit? Size, general attitude of members and representation both in and out of the game alongside the capability to fight at battles of varying sizes with a multitude of tactics, or simply just to have fun.

How did you hear about Better Red Than Dead In-game advertising, usually surrounded by the likes of GOON, FU and BRTD tags whenever I'm taking part in various battles.

What is your preferred play style: Infantry/Armour/Aircraft? Infantry mainly, occasionally do stealth AP Prowler runs from time-to-time with varied success, very little experience with flying and air-based gunning though have a mostly kitted out Liberator + Mossie.

Anything else you'd like to add: I'm hopeful my application leads to acceptance and a trial period, albeit would also understand why it's possible to be declined given my lack of communication capability via Mumble currently. Hopefully it's just a random error as I had 0 problems when running Mumble with PCG.

Your battle Rank: 87

Welcome to BRTD Venine,

I would like to take the time to welcome you as a trial member of BRTD! You have been accepted on a 4-6 week trial basis which is a standard procedure for all new recruits. It is required that you download Mumble which we use for voice communication. You will be sent a private message on this website with mumble details as soon as your application is accepted, for information on installing mumble please go here: www.brtd.net/mumble

Please start using Mumble within the next week so the officers can register you and get you into the thick of BRTD operations. When you first log onto mumble you will not have the proper rights to move from the lobby, as such just hold tight there and someone will pop up and welcome you to the outfit and get you started. If you have any trouble please consult the FAQ section:: www.brtd.net/support or ask an officer who will be happy to assist you. If for any reason you cannot log onto mumble within a week of your application submission, just send which ever officer accepted your application a message on the BRTD website saying why so we don't remove you due to inactivity.

All relevant information of the many events we run in BRTD can be found here: www.brtd.net/community/outfit-events

Training nights are on Thursday and Sunday at 8pm GMT where we take you through tactics BRTD use and make sure you know the basics so you can enjoy the game as much as we do.

Along with training every Thursday and Sunday we run “Monday night Madness” which is always a good laugh! In this event we hold races, showdowns, and many more things to boot. A point to note, sometimes even station cash prizes are given!

Also just pop to this link and introduce your self to the rest of our members: www.brtd.net/forum/2-Public-Forum/7-hello-and-welcome

Our outfit plays on the EU Miller server; our squads are often open and listed (though ask on mumble for an invite if they are not). When you are set up on Mumble, please ask an officer for an outfit invite so you can join our squads in-game.

We request that all the outfit members like us on Facebook and/or twitter as this really helps with the community aspect and also keeps everyone up to date if there are any important news. Links to both of these pages can be found on the left hand side of the main website (www.brtd.net) or do the search option for Facebook. Name: BRTD or twitter: ps_brtd
we hope you enjoy your time with us!

Regards,
Sharpe
