First Person Shooting Multiplayer Game

Quake3 CTF sucks, go play some Unreal Tournament or Tribes. >_>
 
hey i play halo 2 daily, and there are very few things i complain about in that game.
Theres three actually.
1. Vehicles are for pussies. I never use them, never need them. and can take them out easily.
but its very rare youll hear me say that in game if someone else is in one. i just kill them and laugh.

2. Sword is for noobs- im sorry but its true, sword is unbalanced, you can get so many kills using it on a close combat map cause unless you have a shotgun to counter,and host, your screwed. I never use this weapon unless someone kills me once with it, then i pay them back with it and go back to real weapons

3. The Noob Combo- Everyone calls it this, Because we have begged bungie to take it out of the game for ages. people use it as a crutch. its the easiest way to kill a person that i know of.
Shoot plasma pistol...it follows you on heat seek, hard to escape. Hits you, takes down all shields, then they shoot you in the head once with the battle rifle, you die. It happens so fast, and takes 0 skill. They took it out of most maps, but it still exists.

Now i do understand where u come from with, when you do good at the game, youve GOTTA be cheating or something.
Im a legit level 40 and when anyone sees me level they ALWAYS say "how did you cheat to get your level?" its like...what no one is meant to get that level!?
then i own em and its...you were standbying...you were bridging, you cheated.
or. Your a fake 40 still!
yet i always reply.
im so fake your still in second place. Thats gotta make you question your abilities.

FPS=Crybaby zone.
Thats why im the biggest halo smack talker i know.

For once i agree with Tagrineth on this Unreal Touranment is the best for CTF,DOM,TDM,etc..., and Tribes is just great i use to play tribes alot but not was much is UT

I was making the point more at whoever had said they were in the top 3 of the world. I was a legit 38 in halo and just gave up because people just kept modding and that bungie ban hammer was a joke imo. I went back to halo after a good 6 months and found that it is even more full of delvlers and cheaters.

While there are people that are legit 40's and i probably could have been one and i know a couple people that were. But the fact remains the majority of people 34+ did not earn their level.

Btw chasym i almost wanna play you in Halo now. You seem like my kinda person.

and Chas, meleeing someone during a sword lunge cancels it. Try it some time. I won a shitload of Sword-ball rounds because I'd whack people with the skull when they lunged at me, then whack again ftw.

yeah i know that but its not that easy to master,
Just like if you are holding a single weapon and a plasma ball comes to you, if you time it right you can punch it and take no damage. ive seen it done, rarley and theres a vid online somewhere showing how to do it.

And for those who still play halo my gamer tag is

X comatose X

dunno if u need the spaces when u enter it.

u can see my halo montages at chasym.filefront.com too, some funny ones of me pwning fellow qcdners too! zelinkda and darkseph!
Im working on a farewell montage now so ill be playing...alot. in about an hour ill be on.
 
Heres a hint for u halo players, I USE IT ALL THE TIME. it does work.
Reverse psychology. Make them believe you have something you dont.
Now it sucks when your team doesnt know you are doing this cause then they think u mean it.
But i like to sneak and crouch near someone, and when i know for a fact they have a weapon that could own me if i jump out with the lesser weapon i may have.
I use proximity chat to my advantage.
Ill say outloud, "Hey guys im right by their sniper, I got rockets, im about to take him out"
and 9 times out of ten they are gonna jump from their perch and try to run, and because they think you got rockets they are too scared to really attempt to engage battle, they are more focused on escape.
Ive used this method from day one!

Getting someone mad doesnt always make them play worse like i used to think, but most of the time. They will play worse cause they are so mad they just wanna own you, and they start acting irrationally. another of my methods, Hence the reason my friends love when im around cause im a huge smack talker. Ive coined some popular lines in this game. my personal faves are
"i wanna see a 10 page report on my desk tomorrow about how you just got owned in the face be me"
or kill someone, take their weapon
"Hey im just gonna borrow this, you can have it back when you learn to use it"
"Zone owned"
"you just got School Zowned"
Or my personal catch phrase
"You just got comatosed"
which at the end of one of my videos, during a level 30 something team slayer, i got a berzerker medal and you hear the guys saying my phrase "you just got comatosed!! dude...thats just gay" but its funny cause how bad they got owned XD
my new video is gonna be my longest one, im workin hard on this montage!
hope you like them psycheout smack talking tips XD

Unload dual Plasma Rifles up close to someone, then give them a smack after 2 seconds of firing. Instant KO. I've killed some unsuspecting players that way.

And as I mentioned before, I waited for someone to hijack the Ghost just to swipe them in the back with the sword. Sword sucks otherwise.

I stopped playing Halo 2 online 4 months after release. Fun while it lasted.
 
I havent played halo in some time im sire im realy rusty but last good team I had pwned. It wasnt the noob combo completly though, one person had dual plasma pistols while the other 3 had battle rifles. The pistol man would quickcly take down anyones shield and focus on the next player while the battle rifle ppl would take all the kills.

My other fav weapon combos are
plasma pistol + normal pistol Ive gotten many fast ass kilsl with this combo
plasma rifle + needler Only been good against noobs but I had a hell of a time kill em with it (the needler still blows up ther plasma grenade there holding)
Smg + pistol you kinda have to be really acculate with this but the smg has that kick back and long as your lined up with the middle of the persons body some of those pistol shot will hit there head
there are many more with there strengths and weaknesses

Also I played against someone who somehow mastered reflecting grenades of the blast from other grenades. He would throw a plasma grenade and time it so once he throws the frag it blast far behinds walls and around corners. Ppl knew how far away from the cornner so stand to avoid grenade blast but this trick got this asshole so many kill but I gave him props though
 
chasym not all the vehicles are pussy the ghost with a skills user can even dodge the rockets you shoot at it and the banshee also I cant drive any of that this i like being on foot more

The only difference between UT and Quake, Doom, XIII, F.E.A.R and all its peers is you can basically, BASICALLY, fly. Other than that and for all FPS games... FPS = FPS = FPS, show me a difference and I'll show you two similarities.
 
It's those little differences that keep me coming back to spesfic FPS games. There are so many ways you can wield guns in a first person view. Your expecting too much i think.

Each game has piles of little differences. Little variations in physics. Different pacing. Different weapon balance. Little nuances in the net code.

UT99 and 2004 are a little faster paced than Quake3, for example - UT2003 took on a more Q3A like speed and turned off a lot of fans. Check a lot of message boards and reviews of 2004, they will all bring up the restored game speed compared to 2003 and 99.

DOOM is more simplistic, being planar and having very limited weaponry. Basically, classic DOOM deathmatch was a careful dance around the most powerful weapon spawns, where once someone picked up the best weapon, they had to maintain ammo while hopefully barring their opponent(s) from picking up anything that could compete. Aiming was somewhat easier with the lack of vertical freelook.

DOOM3 is extremely slow paced compared to most of the others based on limited single player play, though I admit to having very little experience with DOOM3 deathmatch.

Counter-Strike has a semi hidden and difficult to learn recoil system, which makes aiming take a lot more practice than many other FPS. Shooting while running is basically futile with all but the most steady and practiced eye. You can really tell in CS who's a pro and who's a scrub, much moreso than nearly any other FPS I've ever played.

Tribes has a carefully designed netcode that makes it fairly balanced up to almost 300 ping, and gives everyone a jetpack and the ability to fly - but the high mobility comes with a high price, as projectile weapons actually veer off somewhat from the crosshair based on your movement (Tribes2 is very precise about this and it takes a hell of a lot of practice to be able to shoot other fliers from the air).

These are just some examples of the nuances that make FPS games unique. Oh, and it really isn't fair to say that you'll point out similarities between games of the same genre.. I mean, damn, I can point out a million similarities between FF7 and Star Ocean 2, doesn't mean they play the same.

Well I was in debate with Rones. Has he replied? when he does I'll get right back on it.

I was refering to your analogy still, not the specific example. If you checked general forum section you would see I recently made a thread about blm/pld and brd/pld. However, I did not try to justify it just by saying its different. I gave reasons based on abilities, traits, and spells. Your analogy fails because it does not relate to fps games.

So the entire time you are playing, the game is not fun until after you win? What about games like Planetside? It goes back and forth forever without there ever being an end or winner. It is the challenge that is fun. If winning was all that mattered you would cheat or search out the most one sided games possible. However, both of those are extremely boring. Why are they boring? Because there is no challenge. The challenge creates the fun regardless of who wins. At the last lan we had a cod2 ctf match come down to 4 and 4 caps (5 wins). They barely scrapped out the last cap and won. Regardless, I had fun during that entire match because I wasn't psyche and couldn't predict we would lose.

Now stop confusing clan matches and casual play. Clan matches are all about the win and improving your e-penis. Clan matches have nothing to do with fun too often (why I don't do clan games much anymore). Casual play is all about having fun. That is the only purpose.


How so? You said to win by any means possible. If all that matters is winning and that is the only factor that determines whether something is fun, there is no reason for you to not cheat...unless...there is something else that determines fun besides just winning.


Please, stop with the flawed analogies. How can you possibly relate my fps gameplay to my discussion I'm having with you? Just stop making analogies.

Need I say more?

Also if you are killing ppl with a SMG+plasma pistol you must still be low in rank cause if you were to come up to a real skilled Halo player they would BR your ass so fast makin your ass go OMGOAT... WTF!?

None of these panzy ass shooters, mere pretenders to the throne.

Its like any discussion of a good RTS will always come back to Starcraft, no matter which way you look at it.

You're right and wrong. It isn't fair to comapare FPS's to other FPS's because... they are all the same in the end. However, if we were talking action, adventure, RPG, etc. you could differintiate games in the same genre all day long.
