Best and Worst XOs
We don't often have a commander, and when we do sometimes they go run off to play smartgunner. This often leaves the job of leading the marines to glorious victory or soul crushing defeat to the XO. What are some of the best XOs that you have played with and which ones couldn't lead themselves out of a paper bag?
Franklin Buzzard also know as that guy with a byond name that makes him look like a hacker.

Re: Best and Worst XOs
I've seen Carl 'Dad' Winston and Cheng 'Monk' Chan as really good XO's. Also, the one and only, Frans 'Friendly' Feiffer. They're all very good XO's.
Heard about Charles 'Grey' Malone about being a really good XO but never played a round with him as one.

Re: Best and Worst XOs
Tips for being an XO.
Be competent enough, you are drunk do not try to become an XO because you are going to ruined the game. You are a lazy person? Then XO isn't for you, be a PFC Marine. Trying to make fun or meme as an XO? Expect players will insult or bash you more for being a stupid or idiot XO. Being an XO is not that hard unless you are a new player was trying to become XO without experiencing as an XO, first do SO and try to improve yourself. Leading is not easy, you need to learn leadership especially in reality or in your real life situation as a worker, student, etc. I can't say I am a best XO but I am trying to do my best.

Re: Best and Worst XOs
50% of the XO's I come across are just mediocre and average, not bad but not good either.
25% are good, The ones that you can obviously tell know what the game plan and big picture is. Like Alan Jones
25% are just straight ass. Like these are the new players who are aiming at the CO whitelist, some have a mental deficiency when it comes to tactics, and some of these XO's cannot spell the word "Strategy".
The only question is, which category do you fall under?

May have to pull the red-tie out again one of these day’s and deliver unto unsuspecting COs their coffee. I really appreciate it though, and hope to see you in the role of XO here and there. You’re a great SO to have, and your RP skills are the bees knees.

Re: Best and Worst XOs
I mean doing the same thing over and over gets boring after a while. It's good to shake things up a little, emphasis on the little. This is how I feel it is for all XO's, they start with the typical valid "good" strategies and slowly progress towards more insane ones, until they end up with that delta FOB or 4 squad unga rush.ThesoldierLLJK wrote: ↑25 Aug 2018, 23:49The XO who has a briefing copy pasta saved for every planet is a pretty good one.

I've actually started to XO rounds more often. Someone's gotta deliver the coffees to CO's while you're not around, you know.

Re: Best and Worst XOs
Best XO takes initiative. Never takes the COs possessions and always replies to his radio preferably "OF COURSE CO SIR! RIGHT AWAY!"
Worst XOs, never do anything or give any orders. Look to you with their BEADY black eyes. The moment you step out of CIC they raid your office then backtalk you. The Worst XOs also leave quite the mess of brain matter and skull fragments on the CIC floor.

Re: Best and Worst XOs
Lynn, you’re doing a service to COs around the galaxy, and for that I appreciate you. *salute
For real though, looking forward to running into you as XO or whatever role you pick whenever we run across each other next.
Someone’s gotta keep ya company, hah.

Re: Best and Worst XOs
Eric Parson wasn’t that bad. He played XO well, but now I rarely see him around. As for other XOs that are good
Pierce, my first few rounds as CO went a lot smoother due to having you as my XO. You’re honestly one of the best XOs i’ve seen or had under my command.
Lynns Good in command as well. (Gonna keep it at that, because I feel I keep praising ya everywhere, and it may be a little annoying by now lol.)
Chen knows his stuff
So does-u Katashi.
I wouldn’t mind having any of these 4 under my command, as I know they have what it takes to lead the Marines to victory, and make the round fun for all at the same time. So long as one doesn’t force you to buy attahments from REQ, hehe.
