Where did you see our recruitment thread at?: I got the website from one of your members sig on the official forums. I've had my eyes on you guys for quite some time!
IRL Name: Johan
Age: 23
Games Played: MMORPGs: UO,WoW,Conan,Warhammer online,Dark Age of Camelot
FPS:CS,Soldier of Fortune 1-2,Call of duty series and alot more!
Game Achievements(IE gladiator titles in wow, ETC): In the MMORPGs I haven't had any real achievements but in the first person shooters I've had some. In Soldier of Fortune 2 I was in the Swedish national team two years and in the early Call of Duty games I played with some of the best swedish players in clans.
Game Motivation: (why do you play, what E drives you to play the game) I love the competition when I face another player, just to see if I can match his skill or maybe turn the table on him and tip the fight in my favor. Pretty much anything that has pvp in it. I especially love the small scale pvp situations where you have a group versus another group of similiar strenght. Because that is when the most skill surfaces IMO.
What made YOU apply to covert operations?: I've been in Darkfall since late beta and I had a few run ins with you guys then and really liked the way you played. Always running in small groups and taking out all opposition. Since then I've had my eyes on you and have been waiting for the right time to apply and try my luck. I remember recently when I had a group of 3-4 Shimmergloomers up in Mahirim lands and we ran into 3 of you guys and we had a nice fight where you guys came out on top and I talked for a while with Exodus and once again really liked your values in the game.
Why would you be an asset to CO: I see myself as a good pvper and an all around good guy that doesn't complain when he is needed. I have no problem with team pvp since that is what I love so you won't have any problems with me second guessing any orders given..
Hobbies: I'm really into martial arts IRL so I would say, Muay Thai, Shootfighting(briefly), sports, computer games, music.
Archetype's (heals/ranged/melee/etc): Ranged with Melee.
Experience: In all of my MMOs I've learned that teamplay is everything, if you can't play with the guys you are with.. You're not gonna be successful. What I mean by that is not to clan jump but to find likeminded people and just grind tactics and skill up so that you guys know eachothers movements and can help out in the fastest ways.
I've been a leader in Shimmergloom since before Darkfall came out. I've lead countless pvp raids into pretty much every corner of Agon. Some turned out great some not so much but all in all I have seen both small scale pvp and big ass pvp where all you can do is see the slideshow and hope that you're hitting something living and hopefully not an ally..
Also, I just have to say that I was in the group in the "shortest siege ever" that took the shard carrier down so fast. Our group were the roamers and we have been playing alot together and we all worked perfectly in that fight with Drazen comming up with the plans for the attack and me pitching in where I could.
Can you take shit talk, like serious shit talk, stuff that would offend your dead relatives?: Yeah, that is basicly what I do on a regular basis IRL so I just laugh it off or go punch the punching bag for a while .
How much time do you spend playing games?: As much as I can. Whenever I got free time and isn't spending it with the girls then I'm devoted to Darkfall.
What is your time zone? (Where do you live?): Sweden, GMT+1
Do you have any friends in the guild? People that could vouch for you? Did anyone refer you to our guild?:I don't know anyone personally. The only person I've talked to would be Agent Exodus but that was after a pvp encounter and I don't know if he remembers it!
Can you be counted on to donate and help the guild with building and maintaining a city, as well as other tasks such as blacksmithing etc?: For sure, even though I usually try to help out in other ways than taking up professions I will if needed!
Last but not least, tell us a bit about yourself. Yeah, this part of the app I'm sure you've seen before. It gives us a good idea, more so than you think. So be honest, and be thorough! Good luck, and see you in game:
I am a 23 year old guy living in Sweden. Well right now Norway because I'm trying to steal money from them by doing as little work possible! I currently work at a hotel close to one of the fjords in Norway. Been working at the main airport in Sweden before I went over here though. I've been playing computer games my whole life, from early atari days to now basicly. I gave up sports as a kid to play games and now I've just fallen in love with both of them!
Like I've mentioned, I love pvp in games and I especially like group pvp. And I know some other ex Gloomers are comming here applying and those are the guys that I've played the most with in pvp and we've had both fun and success with it. So I truly hope we can find a home here with you guys and lend you our reflexes and nerdy rants!
Thank you!
