Role-playing idea

[Garrickwest]

Hey everyone, 

So i've always kinda wanted to team up and sorta "roleplay" during missions.
But I don't know if what i'm thinking is considered roleplaying or if anyone does it.

Or maybe this is what all roleplaying is i dont know.

 

But i'd like to work within a team where like maybe you walk into a mission and you tell the blasters to take out the people up top, then the tanker distracts a group while the scrappers sneak by.
then you ambush them.

Or something like that.

Or maybe you have someone with superspeed thats in charge or trying to grab all the glowies and you only attack if he gets in trouble.

Anyone do anything like that?
Or maybe be interested in trying something like that if i tried to organize something?
My toons are on excelsior.

The game isn't really complicated enough for most players who seem to like to move really fast in missions.   But if you can find some friends who like the slower style I'm sure you can have fun.

My concern is that if you want to actually put this into practice, the game mechanics and maps wouldn't allow it. Mainly LoS and aggro issues. Maybe if you built your own mission in AE...

 

I've done something similar when more experienced players will brief less experienced players before entering a mish, but once inside, gameplay basically consists of not splitting up and shooting anything that moves (and some stuff that doesn't).
