Hey ProtoQ, nice to have ya.

Hey protoQ, glad you could join us.

Hopefully they'll get VOIP added in sometime soon and then we can really get our teamplay on, Focused Gaming style!

Until then though, make sure you join us on our TS channel. FFoW is WAY more fun when you can actually communicate with your team/squad mates.

Hey Guys,

I am 26 years old and live in the netherlands. Been playing Frontlines since it came out here in holland (so not very long ). Been playing fps for years now and love the teamplay fps games (bf2, cod4, tf2 etc)

learned about focusgaming through tacticalgamer.com and a movie bommando posted on youtube. I am real fan of teamplay so decided to join. Been playing a while on the Focus server. Sadly haven't had the pleasure to team up with you guys (different timezones and when Focus members are playing i am always on the wrong side and i can switch sides with frontlines, is it me, the server or the game? ) but in time it will come.

Catch ya later

Two new Dutch people in one day, fantastic! Welcome to FocusedGaming protoQ and Cinerama! I've already met both of you in Teamspeak but I believe there was something wrong with your mic/settings, Cinerama, because I saw you talking but I didn't hear anything.
Anyway, hope to see you both ingame soon!

edit: Cinerama, the problem probably was that you were pressing your TS keybind while you didn't know you did, because I could hear you just fine a few min ago

Greetings, Cinerama!


The only reason you wouldn't be able to switch sides would be because the sides are even, or the side you're on is down players.

Otherwise, keep jumping on TS when you're playing, I know we have some people that play at the same hours that you would be on. Especially on the weekends.

Look forward to fragging with you.
