Cookyman Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 I won't be on tonight don't finish work till 10pm then back out for work tomorrow at 6.30am You mention your work a lot Flamey - what do you do?
Daft Posted March 3, 2009 Author Posted March 3, 2009 I hate it when medics revive you while you are surrounded by the enemy team. I wish you could commit suicide.
flameboy Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 You mention your work a lot Flamey - what do you do? Work in a residential college for the blind, so by night I do a teaching assistant role and then by night a care assistant. My standard hours are 45 hours a week, but then for various reasons due to having school holidays off I have to work unpaid overtime so yeah I am stuck here an awful lot...its a F**king shit job hours wise! But great holidays and very rewarding.
Deathjam Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 I hate it when medics revive you while you are surrounded by the enemy team. I wish you could commit suicide. You can, grab a nade, cook it for a bit and then run at your enemy. Even if they shoot you before you get to them 8/10 times they will run over your body as it explodes I find that now with the class abilities as options of play, I don't exhaust my nades like I used to. In fact, it used to be the first form of attack. How stupid was that. Anyways, I have a plan on how to level my engineer so I am off to see if it will work

dwarf Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 My last session of this was so awesome. I sniped tonnes of people, disguised loads, healed people and was generally unstoppable. Came first a few times, just got a very high amount of kills really. I only briefly tried C4 and in my first 5 mins of playing it got me 2 kills, so pretty good. Saboteurs standard abilities are by far the most fun.
dwarf Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Saboteur is awesome. The C4 is good for traps. There you go, I'm sorry but it is one of if not the best class in the game.
dwarf Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Only on the 4th level but the campaign has bored me so far, playing on Hard, but it is just annoying. Enemies hide too much, so you have to wait longer before they pop-out. I know it isn't meant to be run and gun but at least Resistance had some fun-fast paced action where as this... Repeatedly killing enemies and having to wait for so long... They take slightly too much lead for my liking.
Daft Posted March 3, 2009 Author Posted March 3, 2009 The only problem I had on veteran was the crappy team mate AI. I never got seriously bogged down. I don't think they take a lot more cover. If anything they move more so to flank you.
dwarf Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 On the contrary my teammates haven't been that bad. They die quite frequently but occasionally crack an enemy. They never seem to get in the way. Just noticed online that I have the Sniper zoom even though I haven't unlocked the medal that awards it. Ah well, I'm not complaining!
Chris the great Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 i honestly hate outher people online sometimes. do they honestly think the best place to stand when im taking aimed shotsa is directly infront of my gun? as for reviving people in the middle of the enemy, im guilty of it, but it usualy causes a bit of confusion, so greater good and all that.
Daft Posted March 3, 2009 Author Posted March 3, 2009 as for reviving people in the middle of the enemy, im guilty of it, but it usualy causes a bit of confusion, so greater good and all that. Yeah it can be helpful but in the last lot of matches I was revived quite a few times by someone behind cover with two of the enemy standing almost on top of me. What makes it worse, i.e. a death sentence, is that I only have a couple bullets left before needing to reload. It's just annoying when people do it without thinking and sometimes I do just want to respawn.
Chris the great Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 only time revival ever annoyed me was when i was down the the pistol. had to pilfer a new gun from a corpse.
dwarf Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Unlocked spot and mark for sniper and actually achieved the medal that lets me scope with the sniper.
LegoMan1031 Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 Wish i could play more of this. Unfortunatly working pretty much every day kinda gets in the way... lol. I actually finished top in 2 games last night! yay. Tried engineer last night, the turrents can be helpful but not a big fan of the shotgun, its pretty good at close range but anything further its just shit...
Daft Posted March 4, 2009 Author Posted March 4, 2009 What's everyone's thought on a forum game tonight? 8 until late? All game types. Sound good? I'm really tired but I think I'm going to take a nap before the evening.
Deathjam Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 What's everyone's thought on a forum game tonight? 8 until late? All game types. Sound good? I'm really tired but I think I'm going to take a nap before the evening. Yeah I am game for that. Need to try out the Scout class. Also would like you guys to give me some free turret kills again As for use of the shotgun, when targets are far away, you pretty much have to use the pistol, or the revolver if you are cool like me Also realised that the sab class would be more effective if friendly fire was on, as people would be more wary of shooting their own teamates, just to make sure they aren't the enenmy in disguise.
Daft Posted March 4, 2009 Author Posted March 4, 2009 Yeah definately up for tonight. Done afew unlokcing myself. Want the sentry and ground bot ribbons which are tricky when you are not a good team. What are those two? I've almost got the air support one.
Deathjam Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 Repair for engineer is SO hard to get. Damn annoying. Med packs are so useful though. Air drone is a pile of crap. Hit one with a shotgun point blank and it died. When I send mine out, I only do so because, at most, it serves as a small distraction. Oh and people, use squads more! So funny having people like Cooky shout arsebiscuits, Doncartel shouting c**t and shlag, and Rezourceman singing the Street Fighter 4 song/"touch me in the morning"....well maybe you should forget about that last point. Also, it's really helps people get out the base camp faster (you can spawn right next to team leader) and it's awesome when you have backup to help you get back on your feet faster. That, and I want to make a team of heavies that storms any objective. Would be unstoppable. "SEND IN THE ASSAULTS!"
Daft Posted March 4, 2009 Author Posted March 4, 2009 Yeah, I always set up a squad. But I'm also a tactician so it's damn annoying when I die and my spawn points run out.
Ganepark32 Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 I'm up for some online tonight. AGain, I'll be on about 8.30 until whenever I get bored of being killed too many times. Anyone else finding it annoying at the lack of aid the players using medics dish out? In every match I've played I'll be mortally wounded several times and there'll be several medics who just run passed and don't bother to heal. I mean, why bother playing as a medic if you aren't going to heal?

In every match I've played I'll be mortally wounded several times and there'll be several medics who just run passed and don't bother to heal. I mean, why bother playing as a medic if you aren't going to heal? as a medic, i offer two possible reasons. 1. if theres a battle going on, its better to fight your self a second to heal 2. heal takes along time to recharge, if they just used heal, they wont be able to help yet. my head set cme in the post, hopefully if we get a game going tonight i should get some decent use out of it.
flameboy Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 Yeah I think the problem with the medic class is that a lot of people don't realise it takes time to recharge...I am currently playing as a medic and actually gotten into arguements with team mates who simply didn't understand that it does take time...plus if there is a battle you get stuck in it the mechanic isnt quick enough to do it mid fight, if it was as simple as it is in single player by pressing O then it would be easier...but they made it harder to obviously help balance things out and make it more risk reward.
