Name and shame em. N00bs.

[TeraHertz]

Alot of people misunderstand the meaning of the word "n00b." Some people think that n00b means newbie, this isnt the case. A n00b. in short, is an arsehole who fucks things up on purpose, or out of blatent stupidity (not ignorance)

These team killing, spawn tube blocking, vehicle ramming fools should be named and known to all those in the gaming community as the freaks that they are.

We all have screen shots and stories of their actions, so post them here.

[TeraHertz]

I have seen various purposeful team killings and knifings, but this guy really takes the n00b crown so far.

SCREEN SHOT

There weren't many people left in the base once we'd swept over it, so we decided to leave a few folk behind to fix it up. I stayed in my AMS, and somone else went off on an ANT run. When he got back he proceeded to load up the silo. After a few seconds an aircraft arrived and began to hover over my team mate.s ANT.

Ignoring it, I undeployed my ams to get ready for the next waypoint when suddenly I hear a volley of fire and an explosion. My ANT driving team mate was killed by the friendly aicraft. Seconds later another ANT rammed the wreckage out of the way and proceeded to fill the silo.

(See the text panel in the above pic)

After about 3 mins PKNutty messaged me again saying
"and what do you know about me anyway. How do you know I'm not tracing your IP right now."

...typical n00b response.

Thats not a noob. Thats a fucking prick.

[BadAsh]

I think the term noob does refer to a player that is new and does not understand what he is supposed to be doing. This annoys veteran players who are trying to hurry and a few noobs are in the way or otherwise not helping the situation. Noobs can get you killed because they don�t know any better.

The TK guy you are talking about in your example there is just a petty moron. There are people out there like that. I�ve had someone open fire on me because I deployed my full ANT at an empty silo just as he pulled up with his ANT. I just got in my vehicle. The he typed a /tell letting me know I was a wussie for running. I just told him he was too slow and there is no prize for second place. I know that burned him up. Another guy TDed me because I deployed my AMS near a base. This prevented him from deploying his, apparently in his favorite spot, and so he decided I needed to die for the inconvenience to him. So I just respawned and was headed over for a vengeance kill, but a MAX in my platoon beat me to it. I guess poop for brains did not figure on me being platooned up with 30 others (mostly members from my outfit).

Anyway, I don�t call these people �noobs� I call them morons.

I have actually had people send me hate tells that run me over and kill me when I am in the middle of nowhere because they got grief. I have actually had a person send me hate tells because they TKd me trying to fire a rocklet through my back as troops are rushing into a tower.

The other day some fuckstick infiltrator in the module building of one of the caves was playing grabass with another infiltrator trying to knife each other. I was playing my Grunt char and just moving through when a NC trooper comes through the door. The ledges in the module buildings are obviously cramped and both the infiltrators died in the collateral damage that ensued. The fuckstick then proceeds to ignor the fact that the NC had killed his friend and I had killed the NC trooper. Hell, I think he was so out of it, he didnt even know that an NC trooper was there at all. Dude sends me all this abusive language that I was a TKr. The sheer stupidity of people like this are absolutly unbelievable.

The way I handle someone that has the sheer audacity to send me a hate tell is simple. I put them on ignore then hunt them down like a dog killing them over and over again untill I grieflock or they log and have my platoon and outfit do the same.

Everyone was new once. I know, it's hard to admit.

Exactly. When these, as QueenSC put it, Fucksticks interrupt the smooth flow of your game, you get anrgy, but jesus, let it pass people. I'm sure that you've done stupid things in this game before. Alot of people call players that use Jackhammers, n00bs, but for fucksakes, don't try to tell me that if you had access to a weapon like that, you would not use it. Forget the certs. I'm talking if you could, you would.
I used to play Medal of Honor : Allied Assault for 16 months. I learned every single weapon, and became very good with them all. I could use each one with equal dexterity. I still have to shake my head whenever I remember the hoes that bitched at me, and called me a n00b for using a rocket launcher to kill them with it. I wasn't a n00b, I was a better player than they were. And I never cheated once. Even my other gaming buddies tried a few of the cheats.
Don't call people n00bs just because they can kill you with a powerful, short-ranged weapon.
But I digress from the subject...
I don't get too angry at other players. I get run over all the time, and mostly I just shrug it off. I sometimes get hate tells, and when I do, I go looking for that person, not because I want revenge, no, because usually when a person is mad, they make mistakes, errors in judgement, and such, making it easier for me to kill them.

[ChewyLSB]

^I second that. PKNutty must be a prick.

[Indecisive]

Ive had my experiance with those types of bitchs.

[BadAsh]

I understand your ire queensidecastle. One thing you brought up though is kind of a peeve of mine within the game. Now, before I continue, let me state that I don�t know the full situation you were in when you took that rocket to the back. And that guy then flaming for it you was lame. However, it amazes me how many people have no idea how to defend a base.

In PS when I find myself guarding a room with several members from my empire the following usually ensues.

The situation:

12 defenders
1 entry door the enemy is trying to pour though

Typically all 12 defenders will have weapons pointed at the door and things appear orderly. Then suddenly the door opens and there stands an enemy MAX. About 1/3 of the defenders charge the doorway taking enemy and friendly fire all the same, 1/3 start strafing and dodging trying to avoid enemy fire and get clear shots past the chargers, and 1/3 hold position and fire. The end effect is we shoot the enemy, we shoot ourselves, we shoot the walls, and we get over run. In the Military we call this a cluster f**k!

There is no way in hell the enemy should have been able to overrun that position as easily as they did, but people have no idea how to work together and work effectively. Obviously you don�t charge or otherwise move or stand in the way. If everyone spreads out so they have a clear shot on the door before it opens and just FIRES when it opens you�d murder anyone coming through that way. But, nope, that�s not how it works. Some people just need the action and have no patience and then there is that �rush� to get the kill/exp. That�s why I don�t really like the way the exp system is set up. There is always that competition with other friendly players to get that last shot in. All the spoils go to person who lands the killing shot and so you get this kind of tactical nightmare. People are not playing to defend or attack intelligently, they are playing to level up.

Funny and at the same time sad and annoying.

The jackhammer ruins combat. There are no 1 on 1 firefights against the NC that last more than a second. its just, Cherchunk cherchunk...dead.

Im BR8, and some BR18 guy started nailing me and 3 others left behind in a base with his jackhammer and heavy armour. I use a lancer which is pretty good, espeicaly at close range., but I manaegd to kill the guy and took his jackhammer, and OMG
A disgusting amount of power. This wouldn't be so bad if NC vehicles didn't own.

Precisely. It seems that most HA users are just trying to port the "KILL EVERYTHING" aspect of most FPS games into PS.


Me? I like to keep my mayhem tactical - ScatMAX. Powerful as fuck, but it only takes 3 Deci's.

[Veteran]

Pointing out the cheese-factor of the almighty Jackhammer? You'd best watch out before you find yourself in a NC reeducation facility.

Newb = New Player

n00b = ignorant and stubborn new player who thinks he knows how to play , but simply doesn't , usually players ages 8-12 who are mad cuz their mommy told them to go to bed in 15 mins.
