Eva turns its gaze upon...

                                                FORMATIONS

As announced by FROM software developers, AC5 is going to offer a more tactical feel, and focsmore on the violent nature of mech combat. If this is so wouldn't be cool to up the teamwork of online players, if they were to organize themselves into squad based formations. Things that you wouldn't adhere to for the full match or if u did, there would be a loose underlying strategy to keep the other team down. For example if in ACFA, in your team of 4, three or two charged out forward to stun the other team with AA back to back, or at the same time while u had the remainders take long range shots at the weakened enemies. Or another tactic would be to organize your team gang up on one player at a time. You would all work on a surround to keep him contained and when he runs immediately switch to another target. I've done this with some friends and met with great success.  If AC5 is going to be slowed down then would make these tactics easier to build. Instead of having a team of individuals, why not have an actual team of Lynx fighting together. You would see instead of godly individuals on team, u would be face teams of players or pairs or whatever demolishing the competition. This way weaker players can really develop skills and become beat those who havemore skill than them individually. I would absolutley love to see the tactis and counter tactics that would arise from this level of play.
