We'll keep it simple and to the point. This is the schedule for practices for community clash.
Why practice? Besides the fact that practice makes perfect and we can all always hone our grasp of tactics, Community Clash is an event with very specific rules. This means we know EXACTLY what to prepare for. We can pick the actual bases to be used in the event and practice there, attacking and defending. Additionally, there are rules that limit us, especially with regards to spawning and sunderer use. We gotta get used to 'em.
Our training tonight was a blast! We took a tour of Hossin, and from a group of potential candidates, we decided which facility we're going to select to play on. Some of us went VS and butted heads with our guys on TR in a skirmish match. Both attackers and defenders honed their skills against one another, and we had a pretty great time.
The next training will be Sunday at 7 PST. We're going to continue honing the skills specific to this event at the base we selected. Expect more skirmishes with the fiercest opponents on the battlefield- our own guys. Join us on PTS!

Based on this post I'm going to assume the practice and event are going to be on the test server.

Yeah, if I didn't say that before, that's my bad. As far as I know, the event is going to be on PTS Hossin, and we'll be required to use fresh characters for the event.

We can pick the actual bases to be used in the event and practice there, attacking and defending. Additionally, there are rules that limit us, especially with regards to spawning and sunderer use. We gotta get used to 'em. The first practice will be this Thursday, September 5th at 7pm PST (10pm EST). There will be a brief followup after ops this Friday. You are encouraged to go even if you make Thursday, even more so if you don't. We will likely hold one further practice on either the following Sunday or Tuesday. This is also a great opportunity to get a feel for PTS and Hossin. We're gonna be on a new continent, and the balance and function of many items is different on PTS, so even if you think your game is up to snuff, you may want to adjust to these changes. See you there! Post here with any questions, comments, or scheduling concerns. Remember, it is expected that all participants attend at least one, if not more, of these trainings. Suggestion: since practice is going to be held on hossin & since it is PTS, why can't we get several other TxR members who have PTS to login as NC, pick a facility and fight there using community clash system |

Already part of the plan, dude. We're also gonna get anyone available from MERCS or the rest of the TTA or even some of the enemy outfits we have contacts in to do this.

Keep in mind the community clash has rules like no air/mbt's and more. Weird stuff so reread the rules! I don't know if someone is already in contact with the proper authorities. They had the community clash tonight at 8pm central (6 pacific) while we were doing the ops so I missed it, though I could of watched it on another comp in my house, damn.

As I mentioned to pencil, There is a small update to the test server (and also the main game itself), it only a few megabytes to kilobytes in size. However, make sure you load up the test server early so you can be there on time. If your curious about the reason for the update, it most likely this: wiki.planetside-universe.com/ps/Hotfix_(2013/08/21)If you having trouble finding the test server. Try using the youtube link above or poke me in teamspeak right now and I well help you download it  P.S. Also please not that the rules (last time I checked) do mention restrictions on Main Battle Tanks and now spawn beacons. |

The update was 1000 mb and I was on only a few weeks ago at the most so there might be a big download for a lot of you guys.

I'm wont be available on Sun until maybe 8pm or 9pm or possible miss the practice. There's some real life issues that came up that I need to attend. However, I will try to be on by 7pm...
OK looks like I will be on, around 7:30pm playing from a remote location! TxR dedication! Go team go!
