I think I've pretty much given up on trying to get my team to work together. I was, at the start of the game, suggesting that players "stick together" or "support each other" and I'd maybe ask if anyone had any plans, but people seemed to only care/respond maybe 25% of the time. Maybe 40% it would be stupid or mocking comments, and the rest silence. I mean it's a public game and I shouldn't expect competition-level coordination, but I don't think it should be too much to assume that people would want to work together in such a team-oriented game. And a lot of coordination isn't even required, it's more if people just stick by and support each other in general then the team stands a far better chance of surviving than if people just go off and do their own thing.
I suppose I'll just let the chips fall as they may, and at least stick with a group myself if nothing else. Oh, by the way, has anyone clicked the "Create Division" button at the top? How does that work, and what's all involved with this option?
I've had had decent success actually. Particularly in my carrier, though maybe that's because people know I have a good top down view.
Usually I'll ask for a few Cruisers for initial AA support against opposing carrier rushes, and then suggest "head south" or "A and B concentration" depending on map. Probably have 70% compliance.
