When I first played Spring, I didnt know about the lobby.
So I played with a friend over lan, using spring.exe.
Because most times the same person would host and the other join I always ended up as Core and he as Arm. (You can't select your side when playing this way)
We argued alot which one was suppossed be the "Herrenrasse"

In EE I usually play GD because airtransports are more fun than climbing mechs.

I usually play the side the other player aint playing. For diversity.

In TA I played arm just cos I liked em, and I had a mate who was core-crazy... now in spring (AA) I switched to core because when I started pretty much everyone else played arm cos they were overpowered (I started during the AA 1.42 uberflash days

) and I seem to gravitate away from the easy/popular playstyles for some reason

i play arm generally because i can fast recognize the build icons, unlike the core wich i played less and have to search for a certain building far longer than i would like; i would appreciate a series of filter hotkeys that would redisplay a certain category of buildings by role like energy, metal, defence, offence

the number of building beeing diferent between the factions and the builders consequently the lvl 1 AA building(defender for arm) will not be in the same place as the core one

I played CORE because I thought that their OTA units were cooler, and then by habit in spring, and then finally because I became good at CORE but still inexperianced at ARM.

CORE.

AK's, PYRO's, dominators, Combat engis k-bot thing, Exploiters.

Tbh i really miss snipers, Mavs, Warriors and penetratos when playing core. Even if penetrators aren't as usefull as they should be :/.

I started playing ota mainly because of the flashes, and im sure we all know which side has them

CORE, because lasers and flamethrowers are cool =P

Thank you, wasn't sure. Anyway, Arm for me. Core relies on mass assault, Arm relies on stratigic attacking. Nuff said.

Arm relies on flashspam and core relies on gatorspam :D.

Not if you agree not to use it. I personally won't use flashspam. Brawler spam, however, is fair game, as a well set up anti air net WILL slaughter brawlers.

Or spam gators/flashes as usual, for the element of surprise.

You just like them because of the old overpowered DPs

I prefer GBR, myself. Commandos and high quality troops ftw.

Yeah flashes are raid0rz and then you get penetrator support and make enemy cry, although I do miss blades sorta =/, those things always worked.
