Just to clear some things up, in the BETA ~46% of the people are vanu... then next highest is terran, then next is NC. :P Just some facts - Even thouh I am vanu, but I think all the races are cool

:o

And I'm still not in beta.

Christ.

Anyways, that is still a shock -- I wouldn't have thought that the Vanu would come naturally to players. Very, very interesting.

I kinda like the vs. I think thweir armor looks really cool (probably because I am color blind and still see the darn thing as blue). When the game comes out, I will probably play as whatever side has the least players (unless it is NC, I like a little range and most of their weapons are shotgun types), I really want that xp modifer thing that they give to the underdog.

also about you saying NC is like ultor???why? ultor was more like TR. or vs becasue they were tryying to make a super being..i just dont see the conection

Look at last post that you quoted me. I repeat: Urrr?
I meant they LOOK like Ultor rip-offs (no offense to devs, well, maybe the NC ones).

This thread almost got off track there.

I just find it funny how slapnuts (is that his name?) thinks the TR and NC suck because their color scheme "sucks." Of course, isn't this a matter of opinion? I personally don't think that purple is "sexy." Heh.

ok mrluc, theres a few things i agree with. but i still say hendrix is overrated. dont get me wrong, hendrix was good, i just dont think he was great. u stated that ozzy was in the right place at the right time (horse shit but ill let it slide) the same could be said for hendrix. its not hard to be "revolutionary" with an instrument that was just starting to be experimented with. i think if hendrix was still alive today he could have become great but when he died he was still just good.

srv worshiped hendrix because he didnt realize his own talent, although id put others over srv (a whole other argument so lets leave that as a simple opinion). hendrix did good spin offs of things, but then later, someone would always come and do it better. voodo chile, better by srv, setting the guitar on fire, better by ted nugget, the famous national anthem solo, watch zack wild on ozzy's budokan dvd and see how pathetic it makes hendrix's solo look. of course he did all of this first, but that again makes him good, not great.

i think my opinion of hendrix was mistaken, im not saying he sucks im just saying he doesnt deserve the worship he gets. maybe if he had lived a little longer and evolved some he could have earned it but as it is theres many more greater than him.

i agree that dave mustain could be alot better, but he's still kickin, it might happen.

now, for the rubutel im sure ill be recieving i vote that we take it to the lounge, its just a matter of time before some staff member starts bitchin

mr_luc · 2003-03-26, 12:50 PM

Heh yeah, I should lay off the music talk.

I think our tastes vary too greatly. Rock and roll is a very, very small part of guitar playing -- it is just the one that got the most exposure in recent years. Expression-wise, rock and roll has a ways to go before it starts catching up with electric blues or classical guitar or the enormous field of traditional latin music -- it's just more limited, there's not quite as much room for expression in the guitarist. That's why I would tend not to put a pure R&R guitarist as 'the greatest ever'.

Yo, here are the big problem with vs vehicles:

Thresher:
In the Fileplanet video, the part where the NC squad are facing off against the Thresher (which btw takes them totally off gaurd), it took 12 seconds for the damn thing to kill ONE NC, and even then it was by sitting on top of him for him for two seconds.

Mag-Rider:
OK, the BIG problem with a tank with a battering ram is this:
shit can move in this game

Go ahead and ask the admins - don't talk about what you dont know about.

Deadlock · 2003-03-26, 04:58 PM

sweet, we agree to disagree. rock on brotha

NeoTassadar · 2003-03-26, 05:24 PM

Obnoxiousfrog, first off: skill level. Second: did they kill the thresher (didn't see that one)? Third: that is not a battering ram. It does nothing. It is just there. Like the Standard Armor. Useless. However, the laser turrets you seem to be overlooking...

Sniper Jack · 2003-03-26, 05:33 PM

Just to let you all know, that thing jutting out of the front of the Mag-rider isn't a battering ram, it's a cannon that the driver may use while driving. This was brought up in a post a while ago. So while the tank strafes, the driver may line up his own target with the gun mounted to the front. Just FYI
