How do you view the tool of Battlefield Execution to be used? What circumstances do you think it would be necessary to BE a member of the crew? Where do you think the Battlefield Execution Mechanic Differs from regular Execution and why? A extreme way to fix major marine conducts against the operation when it cant be fixed by normal procedures in the moment. I would like to answer the last question first: BE is a dirty, fast, emergential and last resort way to end conflicts in critical moments and should be only used in the worst of cases; Such as being far from the LZ in Trijent Dam, in a last stand against the entire hive, suddenly a marine decides to go rogue and shoot at his fellow marines, there is no way to call MPs as he would kill a bunch of marines if they even arrived, there is also no way to discuss the matter with him as he is shooting other people. The only way to fix that with less damage is neutralizing him before he can do any more damage.
How will your Commanding Officer run his/her ship? Provide a detailed explanation on how he would handle situations that might commonly occur such as, a insubordinate Req, Engineering, MP, or Command Staff At least one department is insubordinate every round, it is not their fault in most of cases, but in fact the lack of a proper Commander that isnt just a copy-paste announcement machine and deploys just after it. I would like to coordinate and oversee every department before even thinking on deployement or locking myself on CIC, majority of the cases can be fixed with just a bit of talk that most proud Commanders refuse to have with their subordinates. I also want to recognize every effort even in the minimal way possible, from my experience, most Commanders tend to recognize popular people, high rank roles or ''Hurr durr I killed a Ravager that was already injured, give me a medal'', this is no way to boost the morale of the corps from my own experience, everyone in the ship haves a vital role and for a PFC to keep pushing like a idiot there is a medic to keep him alive, a CT who dropped ammo for him to continue fighting. For a IO to get all intel, the chances of someone having to guard him for the entire damn round is high. Unlike the common Commanders, I wish to see what they choose not to see, the entireness of the Corps.
What do you think is the job of a Commander? In theory, Commander is about spicing up the round and making it more interesting but in most of cases Commanders tend to think in their pleasure above all else, from my own experience, it isnt any fun to have a CO that just make the exact same thing every round or instantly drop and die groundside leaving another problem to the marines. I believe that as a Commander you are there for the marines not the other way around. I like to think you are something like one in-game moderator, you are there to help and make the best of the game not to use your power for your own benefit. Do not get me wrong, there is awesome Commanders around but some manage to ruin the game in some aspects.
As a player what do you think could be added for Commanding Officer to benefit the role? As I said above, I wish to try something different, try new strategies and strats, CM is getting boring and I want to change this. Let me take Big Red as example: If you have the average CM CO, he will just order everyone to hold Bar then go inside ETA or Research with Bravo in FOB then he drops for ''overseeing the situation'' and go unga PFC mode. Shouting shit in announcements and telling people what to do isnt a way to promote leadership at all and I know that right. I want to communicate with my soldiers and make them understand why they are doing that objective and how important it is to the operation and not just throw a meta-chart way of winning in the tablet.
What do you think you could contribute by being whitelisted? I pretty much covered everything above but in short words, I want to change CM from a repetitive turn based TDM shitfest for a better experience to everyone and not only me, I believe there is no better role than CO to change this. SL is my role with highest hours in CM, I also played tons of SO and XO, not as much as SL. I do think I am prepared for this role with my experience inside and beyond CIC.
