Tengu- the 2200 in this game appears to be very much a Gap specialist. Meaning that he will be very polished on this map. On other maps less so. Loving this map and playing it over and over and over and over again is fine. FAF is great in that it caters for players with a variety of different gameplay desires.
17:04 i had no idea that carcasses bounced off the shield. new challenge guys, get an acu kill with nothing but the wrecks of planes bouncing off shields like some kind of pinball machine.
As a new player I'm very happy these videos are still happening for me to be able to learn; albeit this is probably a sign to learn more than pass and astro
This IS already a version with more paths into base, in fact there are so many now that you can hardly consider it a "gap" anymore. There used to be the sole entry in the middle and a teeny tiny path through the mountains that you could traverse only in single file and experimentals couldn't pass at all.
I think what was meant with the skill level is the skill inflation. The system adapts as money. Sooner or later someone with same skill today having 1400 will be 1800 in 5y. Thats why you'll somewhen see 3k players (I think they already exist if I am not wrong) AND the skill level can be manipulative. Afaik the 3k player I remember is not that good compared to other top players like TURBO2 who can play literally any map and raipe you ;)
In my experience it goes the other way. An 1800 5 years ago would likely get a rating of 1500 today. Not that you should give that much credence for rating anyway - it's just a probabilistic tool for match making purposes!
Great to see you continuing with these casts, mate. Keep it up and enjoy your trip away.

My thought is that this is a game, it's supposed to be fun, play the maps you like :)
Great game! Some epic invasions!
Team 1 failed largely due to a lack of scouting. There were so many good targets they never touched because they never saw them.
Well done Merton.
Thanks :D
Incarnate enough times and you become like God; a journey together to unlimited mass, I mean free will.
Pryge?! haha your great. I do wonder if it was Purge but with a Y intsead of a U lol
lol you got it
With this particular version of gap, once you see it, you can't unsee it. Lets just say it's likely why it's called gap. 🤣
Would it be nice if there's a bigger version of this map, with more potential path into enemy base and more mass in the middle?
faf includes and updated version with exactly that :)
so you mean a normal map?

Didnt notice the 2 salvation then? 😅
He went full Gyle there! I was yelling through the screen "IT'S SALVY FIRE, NOT EMISSARY!!!"
I like what Tengu is doing, but team 1 has the only UEF, so I have to root for them. Thems the rules.
Great game!
i think a 40x40 gap would be interesting, or 40x20
awesome game
25:16 missed that the nuke deff shot at 1 nuke twice. lol
nah, the second one was the emissary fire outbound.
First...?! Hooray! Thanks for the great casts :)
This looks like a Beyond All Reason map to me.
This map is a version of DualGAP which is around forever
IronGal my favorite player of the game fo sure
I have no idea who that 2200 is
What's the replay Id#?
Nice game.
Pryge? It's spelled pyrge, probably pronounced "purge"
He pronounced it "purge" later in the cast anyway.
i am the randomly clicked viewer, time to sub
