Guess what guys ... the first battles held in the US and Europe were
held with just two guys, who lived in the same area. You should never
assume that when we say "go battle" we mean "go to a well-established
battle event hosted by other people". We mean "go battle" ... build two
vehicles (even just a tank and supply vehicle will do), call a buddy and
"go battle" in an open field somewhere. After you've shot (or
attempted to shoot another vehicle), I guarantee you'll get pumped up to
build more and battle more.
If you want to move out of the "hopeful" category, you need to simply
finish your vehicle. If you want to move out of the "tank owners"
category, you need to simply drive your vehicle around and shoot
something else. Heck, even an obstacle course with some targets would
be more fun that sitting in front of your computer and hoping that
someday somebody holds a battling event near you.
If you have the luxury of being within 2 hours or so of other members,
then you really have no reason not to battle (with the exception of
scheduling).
Currently, much less than 10% of the people who have expressed serious
interest in participating in the hobby have actually ever even battled
in just one battle :-(
