LOL twink and final.
As the unit boss of both I can give you some comments about them:

Final smurfs when he doesn't care about doing bad. ;)

As for twink, he has been stomping pubs quite hard lately, I'll give him that... but he's been relying on scats too much as well (nothing wrong with using a scat, but staying in one too long will start hurting your score output due to not having as much firepower to put on the enemy as say a heavy or assault could.

Maus won the 1on1 tourny, maybe its him?

Maybe Alf has mastered the art of critting on people and is secretly the best?

Community size doesn't matter here, because the game is combined arms. If it were a matter where we were all using basically the same weapons and same move sets (like a fighting game, RTS game, or simple FPS game) then it would be easy to tell I think. But from light, to mediums, to heavies, to assaults, to aircraft, to Vtol, to BA, to Tanks, to hovercraft; its a whole different ball game if you want to talk about mastering it. Most of the guys at the top of the score boards never touch assaults or most heavies cause they deem them bad, I deem them bad as well but still get good with them, always a good idea to get good with them if they decide to get buffed.  8)
I try to get good at every variant and asset I can, but I still suck dick at BA vs BA fighting and can't fly at all.  :'(

My advice to anyone who wants to be THE VERY BEST LIKE NO ONE EVER WAS! Is to switch to the losing side in pubs whenever possible, being on the winning side of a stomp too often makes you get dull, not enough danger or things to shoot at.

I don't see the point. There's a lot of good players, and everyone has their amazing days and their bad days.

Singling one person out does nothing except give people an ego stroking.

Agreed.

 ???

There would have to be some sort of global stats tracking to really find that out i'd think..

>Me
>Best

I'm flattered, really, but noooooooooooooooooooooooo...

If you wanna see some real pros go at it, go hunt down the videos for the Wolf's Dragoons 1v1 tournament. That's a good pool for the top dogs right there.

Of course, it's probably impossible to say any one person is the *absolute* best since every player has specific things he's good at.

Final smurfs when he doesn't care about doing bad. ;)

It's not when I'm trying to hide that I'm doing bad, it's just for being silly. I'll still play plenty shitty when I'm using my regular tag :P I just kinda wish that it would give an in-game announcement when a player changes his name so people don't think I'm intentionally trying to trick people...
Finalizer! Has anyone ever told you that your the bomb diggity diggity?  :o

I got no problem naming names, give credit where it is due.

However, I haven't really seen the guys I think are really good in pubs much lately.
I'll be able to tell ya when 0.6.0 is released and everyone is on the battlefield at once. ;)

I'll bite, although this is so terribly subjective.  Thinking back across all versions, all situations, all asset encounters, etc., I have to say that AAA is the only guy whose name sticks with me in terms of doing something I took note of pretty consistently and/or overachieving without relying on camping or some formulaic asset/position.  Plus, his name comes first in the phone book...

In my simple view, I kind of divvy up players into two categories: creators and receivers, or givers and takers.  There are a lot of "good" players, that play every game letting the game come to them.  They excel at position (or camping) and formulaic assets.  They take, take, take in the easiest way.  There are significantly fewer "great" players that are disruptive forces in any match or in whatever asset they choose.  They take the game to the opponents and force them to do something about it - and they create opportunities for their team pretty consistently.  I have no idea how scholarly they are about the assets they use; but, they are super fun (or frustrating) to play against at every point in the game, and in any asset.

If I am perfectly honest, it is the latter bunch that makes this game fun at all for me.   No need to list their names: they are at the top of your scoreboard almost every game they are in, they aren't sitting 1 square from their base in a Nova the whole game, and they know who they are ;)
