Title: OTA Name
Post by: raiden on January 20, 2012, 03:11:39 AM

Just want everyone's opinion on which they think is better, what do you think you would rather see an OTA unit's squad name be?

I picked SWORD but the thing that makes me think a bit is that SWORD is usually based upon Airwatch Units based in the city Urban Response team. But I do like the name so I think it would fit well in the Overwatch Arm.

I think SAVAGE is the best choice as it overlays the concept of the OTA quite well.

The same reason I also picked Savage.

*le sigh* I picked SWORD, and then realized it is one of our formations.

SAVAGE

It depends what they do IMO.

I went for SWIFT, as I always imagined the OTA to storm in to a situation, and quickly take out the targets, before leaving again quickly. I mean, think of it, imagine OTA rushing down some alleyway, armed with their AR2s, ready to take out some armed and wanted anti-citizens? Doesn't the word "swift" just come into mind?

Hence why I chose STORM

Chose STORM, SWORD would cause too much confusion.

What's the purpose of the new element?

It would make choosing a name easier. For instance, if the element was for recon/scouting we probably wouldn't name it something random like MACE.

We need a 'mechanical' OTA division. Something that works on the Hunter choppers and APCs. Or instead of always raiding Outlands, OTA can start securing sectors by buildings barricades and setting up hardpoints. Of course, if someone was in it we'd drive them out, and focus on getting them out instead of dead (just for the RP).

Inb4, "omg ota have no thinking fuck" well, they do. It's been hinted multiple times that they have 'feelings' like when they yell "<::Shit!".
