Azure Twilight one of Planetside's oldest and one of the Vanu Sovereignty's biggest outfits is always looking for new drop commandos.
Running ops on a nightly basis we look to add mature members both old, new or returning to our ranks and help us turn Auraxis purple
Our outfit prime time is around 7pm-12am EST but we do have many members from across the world (including but not limited to the EU)
We are led by a mature, fun natured and somewhat ecentric command structure. We focus mainly on Galaxy troop deployment and MAX crashing however we regularily run specialised outfit fun nights where we switch it up from time to time. We take suggestions from members old and new (if you wanna give something a try one night feel free to let us know)
In Azure Twilight we only have 1 certification requirement and that is all members above BR6 must have either AV (comet) or AI (quasar) MAX certed. We use Teamspeak 2 to co-ordinate our ops (we are looking to upgrade in the future) and have a Website (http://azuretwilight.org/index.php?home), Twitter (https://twitter.com/#!/AzureTwilight), Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/groups/28935811819/) and Steam (http://steamcommunity.com/groups/azav) community groups that all members can join/follow.
If you are interested in signing up then please feel free to log onto our forums (http://azuretwilight.org/forum/index.php), sign up and say hello or jump in game, join an Azure Twilight squad and ask for an invite.
Hope to see you all on the battlefield

Great Outfit, effective raids, good Radio chatter and effective leadership.
Kytten is a great pilot, and very reassuring over the radio.
Thanks for a great All-Nighter!

A gozilibon!
I'm an interested party looking for outfit. I've made a thread under PlanetSide's LFO forum. With Beta rumoring to be as close as it may be, I'm looking for serious outfits to roll with. A number closer to the actual would be appreciated.
Gozilibon is rather creative though :groovy:

At the moment I believe they are the biggest VS outfit actively playing planet side one. I'm sure an officer would be able to give you a better idea of how many are active and how many are members waiting on ps2, but I've often seen 30+ on ps1 in the evenings. That's pretty good for a 9 year old game, and surely doesn't represent how many members there actually are. If you have access to the game you should jump on and check them out, they are a good group.

When PS2 comes out and I can get my computer to run it, i plan on joining you all in this outfit.
I never played PS before, but ive seen enough to know what goes down on auraxis. (thank you supermorto for that) Can't wait to be fighting by your sides'! :D

We currently have a bit over 1000 members. But only about 30-40 are active almost daily, and maybe another 20 are active weekly or so, with a few others popping in every now and then. Also alot of the toons are alts, owned by one person. Still, we have a lot of people in the outfit. We probably wont have true numbers until ps2 comes around, and we can see who really is coming back.

my good friend Scourge-of-the-Server speaks well of these guys all the times, and his stories sound like the stuff of legend. Can't wait to run across them in the field and watch them in action again, it's a site to be sure.
I'm glad they're Vanu!

Yep, been with them a little over 3 months now, after returning from ancient days (2004).
These guys (and ladies) are definitely fun to play with. They due have some good discipline, but nothing any good outfit wouldn't have. Been loving their Wednesday and Weekend night ops!

If your looking for a casual outfit without restrictions an outfit like AT would be right for you. In the original PS they were talked down upon for using what most players including myself would think are lame tactics, like having 20 of them vs 5 of us and 15 of them in max suits, or bringing rediculous amount of numbers to a small fight and simply win because they had so many.
I spent many years fighting AT and could easily take out 5 before dying from lack of ammunition health packs etc and the fact that they just kept coming and normally certed and used maxes which took the longest to kill.
Basically while they dropped like flys and in my opinion ruined many fights by simply overwhelming the enemy with numbers, it was effective and they got the job done for their empire.

This is your endorsement? TRx one of the "leetfits" you know the type. :rolleyes:
TRx have a different playstyle to AT, while one could call them a "leetfit" I'm sure some would call us a "zergfit" the important thing about picking an outfit is finding one you have fun in. This is afterall a game and games are played for fun.
Azure Twilight's primary rule is respect. That includes all empires. I love this rule and up hold it fiercly. I have mad respect for TRx. I love some of the holds they've thrown at us. :D
If you're looking for teamwork, a fun atmosphere and an outfit that will work with you then hit me (or one or our other Officers (http://www.azuretwilight.org/index.php?officers)) up, visit us here at our website (http://www.azuretwilight.org) or simply jump into one of our squads and ask for an invite.
Anyone can give us a try. If they like us they can call us home! If we're not for them we'll still fight side by side no hard feelings (it is afterall as TripX said for the empire!)
Edit: Oh and to answer the question about Nobel playing US or EU - He lives stateside so he'll be US as will I (gotta keep up the British love!)

AT is a great outfit for beginners. They will teach you what you need to survive and play well with others in certain situations like gal drops. Outside of a few very basic and general areas of play their command seems limited especially if you like to use a tactical option such as sniper or cloaker(Which is now one class).
They also get very butt hurt if you try to be innovative or if you are making a huge difference in a part of the battle where the outfit leader is not at.(LOOKING RIGHT AT YOU FRANCKO!)
Those things aside the actual players of this outfit tend to be very cool and very fun loving. In summery if you are new to the game and want to learn what's what and who to shoot(Francko is always a good option) then this is the outfit for you. If you want to do something specialized and make a name for yourself as the greatest "blank" then I suggest looking for a new group to hang with.

That sounds adorable, but even I have kicked wannabe Rambos. Me, a laid back motherfucker with zero leadership qualities. Still #1 commonsense rule in any outfit (LOOKING AT YOU ATUDAY) you have each others back.
Trust me I have my reasons for my comments. This goes back well over 6 years to the founding members of AT. When the new outfit leader stabs half the players in the back playing favorites after the founders left some comments are more than justified. I played by the new rules for a time and instead of being rewarded as others had been I got shafted. Outfit leaders should not play favorites.

Funny we have a screenshot of you talking to one of our officers at the time. You stated you didn't wanna run with us, didn't want to get max... Didn't want didn't want didn't want. That's cool we're not for everybody. You left, also cool.
Your comment was about something that happened 6 years ago get over it. You then left again in 2009 of your own accord. Also cool. But since it's been at least 3 years for you being in AT you have absolutely no idea how we run things currently. The infrastructure has also changed in this time period, as has certain parts of our SoP, our TS server, officers and the website will change soon. Strange how things change right? :huh:
If AT's leadership was as snide and bad as you claim we wouldn't have any where near the numbers we currently do because others wouldn't put up with it... Maybe we were just not the outfit for you ;)
At any rate. Arguing on the internet is like a broken pencil. Pointless. :groovy:

Want to be bad at PS/PS2?
JOIN AZURE TWILIGHT!
As an old school VS CR5 I've had more experience of AT than most and in my mind they are a Jekyll and Hyde Outfit. They can lurch from being one of the most effective groups in the game to one of the most frustrating in the blink of an eye. Some times you'll see 3 galaxies light up your mini map and know they're about to save the day and sometimes you'll watch them mess about on an empty continent for hours training while the VS are losing ground. At the top their leadership is first class. Francko is an excellent man-manager and, more importantly, an excellent man. They also have first class officers in Kytten and Nobel.
I hope we find ourselves on the same Server as AT in PS2.

Thanks Dart. I understand you find the training thing frustrating, but those 3 galaxies wouldn't appear on your mini-map and save the day without it. It works in swings and roundabouts at times.
AT's upper management is all fantastic. We have wonderful officers who've been with the outfit for years. DargoTrox is one of the best leaders on the battlefield. He can predict with accuracy where the fight is going to turn and where we should be. Beekergunship is a fantastic aircav officer. I know gulfy32 has been managing (and commentating on) our current multi-streams on TwitchTV, he's a great guy and fantastically funny. Every officer we have brings a punch to the mix and I love them all. :groovy:
And then we have the loyal and wonderful Veterans - Too many to name but AT wouldn't function without them. :cool:
Also as for finding the same server in PS2 I will inbox you to let you guys at DT know about the next VS meeting we have and when it will be.

Greetings all.
What we have said for 9 years is that the Azure Twilight (http://wiki.planetside-universe.com/ps/Outfit:Azure_Twilight) is not for everyone. If you want to work as a team and be a part of something that is much bigger than yourself, then you are very likely to enjoy AT. If you want to be part of a community that is accepting of everyone and will not tolerate hate, you have found the right outfit.
If you are focused only on yourself and consider anyone/anything different than you to be bad/lame, then AT is not for you.
Over these 9 years we have welcomed every single player into AT that has wanted to try it out. I strongly believe that everyone should play Planetside in EXACTLY the manner they prefer. But if you don't want to follow our rules then you'll need to join a different outfit. That's why there's more than one outfit.
What we would never do, is criticize your outfit or play-style. We will continue to respect you and your right to enjoy Planetside as you wish regardless of how you treat us.
See you Planetside.

AT has provided me with thousands of easy kills over the years when I play NC or TR. I strongly recommend AT to any terrible gamer out there who wants to be surrounded by more terrible gamers. Incoming BAD Units!

CLEAR COMS
I left this outfit, when I grasped the mechanics of PS1 and got tired of dying and went to play TR.
This outfit is fine if you are a beginner, in fact I encourage All people who are knew to Planetside to join this outfit. You will get a feel for the game and they will help you. You might get kills if that's what you want, since this outfit is a magnet for trouble, everything that has been said already, its fun - however-
The main gripe I had with this outfit back in the day is that they ( or the "elites" )believe in "quantity over quality" (still do apparently I heard) Your individual skill is meaningless and you will forever stay a mobile meat-shield directed to wherever you are told in hopes that the objective is completed. This is evident by the recruitment process, since they just allow anyone in without a trail period or applications. A person can be banned from this outfit and just make an alt and jump right in. This outfit lacks discipline.
Imagine being in a room and there is only one enemy there, how many people do you think it takes to kill that one guy? In AT apparently you need 100. Ops leaders will get frustrated because new recruits do not know the same basic procedure and ruins the flow of those you may already know. Its mind blowing after jumping in the game after all this time they still do not have divisions for this organized zerg and still use the same tired tactics over and over again. If you are planning to improve your individual skills and already know the ropes to the game, I do not advise this outfit since it greatly hinders growth.
Just because you have a large army does not mean that will win battles for you. Look at the The Battle of Cannae, when the Romans outnumbered the Carthaginians, back then their training and their equipment were very effective something we all know about the Romans, however that did not help them when the Carthaginians slaughtered them, in this case their numbers were used against them(also superior tactics) and AT is not different. Can't tell you how many times we are pushing into a BD and a shitload of maxes come out of nowhere hitting mines, getting OSED and cluttering the hallways with their dead bodies only for the few who actually made it to the spawns or gen to be half dead and be easily picked off. Lets not forget how several newbie AT squads can walk into a room to get mauled by fewer and more skilled NC/TR -we've all seen it.
Not sure what Azure Twilght are planning for PS2 but I'm sure they will stream it for everyone to see. However one thing is certain, if you are VANU and playing PS1/PS2 for the first time this outfit should be mandatory, think of it as going to a public school, you are learning the basics and getting ahead, but eventually, soon, its time to go to college and get a job.

If you are interested in signing up then please feel free to log onto our forums (http://azuretwilight.org/forum/index.php), sign up and say hello or jump in game, join an Azure Twilight squad and ask for an invite.
Hey Kytten you might want to update your primary post to present the link to the website in a better more prevalent showing. I was looking over your thread and because of the way links are done on this site I totally missed it.
Might help with recruitment. Will defiantly help with traffic to the site for people that just want to check you out.

I was active in Azure Twilight from 2005-2007, I stopped playing mainly because I joined the U.S. Army. After all these long years I am getting out in about 10 months so I would like to pick up where I left off in the outfit. I checked my account on the AT forums and I was able to log in with my old email and password, which is amazing. I just wanted to say that I won't be available for the beta (I'm currently deployed to Afghanistan) but I will be when the game actually comes out. Anyways its really amazing to see that the outfit is still doing well. If Francko reads this well Thanks for creating such a great outfit, if not then give him my regards.
Sincerely PopeyesChicken (yes that was my name on Planetside 1)

Well I come from Eve Online and I'm relatively new to this Planetside business and I was recommended to you guys from an IRC chat. When it comes to loyalty and discipline those are key elements you'll find with me. I cant assure you i'll join you guys 100% as im trying to convince my friends to leave TR and go Vanu but hopefully we can fly together in beta.
To pass the time waiting for beta I play League of Legends, Skyrim, and occasionally Dota 2.
