Awesome skills from certain player(s)
« on: November 17, 2010, 03:36:56 PM »
I was pubbing last night on TLL's NJ server(maybe it was the Texas server, i forget lol), and there were the usual non-clanner d00ds around. I'm horrible with names, but they all played EXTREMELY excitement last night. In particular, 'Bobby,' was doing VERY well, and was using cover and tactics very well.

I was very surprised when I was in an LRM vulture, on sandblasted near the clan side, those tall rocks people stand behind(and under). He charged through in I think a kitfox? lol. did a bunch of damage to my teammates,dodged their fire, and ran around me, and hid RIGHT behind me, out of firing line 2 or 3 of my teammates fire lol(my teammates kept firing at 'him,' hitting me instead. needless to say, I was barely damaged before he started charging, and he ended up killing me, even after I alpha strike'd my 80 LRMS in his face.

His skill of knowing some of the lesser skilled players on my team would keep trying to shoot him through me, and him hiding right behind me so I would have to take splash damage, really was top notch.

Like I said, there were lots of others that played VERY well in that match. Was one of the funnest and best pubs I've ever played in.

I know darthbob and Roi were there too, later in the game. You guys played sucky. haha j/k. I had fun trying to protect Roi's LT against darths suicide aero runs in my huit prime half way through the game.

Sucks that I had crysis crash right after the next map.
But yeah. There it is.
w00t!

New idea- would I be able to use an external hard drive to add RAM and/or improve gigahertz?

The SJ peeps I see often are usually pretty good team players.

In fact it is... it tastes bittersweet... and has a weird "glow" to it during daytimes...  in fact it hurt my eyes when I first saw it *-*

But you get used to it..

Nahh, j/k.   "Real life" is a game... it's damn hard... but the graphics are PWNSOME!
And when you finally get things to work your way, it's actually fun... a little...

Yeah, Bobby is ridiculously good.  I was playing Sandblasted on his team last night and we were both in Shadowcat A's rushing together.
I love running around in the same mech as someone else, it's so easy to time strikes.
He ran up a score like 17-3 just in a Shadowcat at the end of the game.

We were both after Mechman who was in the pulse laser Thanatos and could never get him.  We spent the whole map going after him. Every time we went after him, he would rtb really fast or behind a wall of warhammers and catapults.  And when Bobby and I were damaged quite a bit, he would chase us across the map with the Thanatos' speed.  Just as I thought I had made it to base, I got hammered from the back by Mechman and promptly exploded.

At 6 seconds left and with all 3 torsos in the red, I finally took out Mechman with a well-placed UAC20 shot. HUZZAH!!!

LOL, yes, Bobby is damn good. We managed to shut him down on inferno though.  That's probably why he went all rape on us in Sand Blasted. He does post here from time to time. He has an Urban Jungle video that is very good. He needs to make more videos. ;) SSRM Vulture can kill a lot of things but, not a Mauler C and a pilot with aim. It helps that the Mauler doesn't rock and roll quite as much as the lighter mechs when taking missile fire.

Lot's of good players on recently.

Andreas and Tanki are good players. They're both good players in other ways too, helpful with the cash and such.

Whenever they're on I tag up with them in Shadowcats. 3 awesome Scat pilots, the enemy just folds :D

Never seen Bobby though.

I've bumped into him quite a lot, he's a great player, really knows how to pilot and gun effectively. I've had some nice tousles with him, good player to try and take down. He doesn't use the novacat / madcat / lbx loki crutch either (well most times I've seen him).

I tend to have far more respect for someone who performs well with the less optimal designs. As soon as I get trounced by a novacat, madcat or lbx loki, I tend to just dismiss it as business as usual.
