Stop running in front of people !!!

PR24 · 2003-05-21, 01:50 AM

For the new players and even some of the old please, please,please stop running in front of others while they are firing their weapons.

You give grief to these people you run in front of which now that retail is released there are no more "grief wipes" from the server.

The game is not going anywhere so take your time and play smart.

Thank you

Hold on i got something i wanna add...

GET OFF THE PAD!!!!

The retardation at the Vpads must end. If it's gonna be awhile before you can purchase a vehicle. Then toggle your mouse cursor, leaving the vehicle purchase screen up, but allowing you to move THE FUCK OUTA THE WAY!!! Remember, reavers love it when you gather. So... wait a minute. Never mind that. Go ahead and clusterfuck the Vpad, yeah. The more, the fucking merrier, yeah yeah. So i can kill the fuck out of 20 of you morons all at one time!!!! lol!!!

Another way to avoid Vpad fucking is to bind your matrix to a base no one is using.

Here's another one...

GET THE FUCK OUTA THE TUBE!!!

You're like a turd stuck in the pipe. And none of these other shits can get past your stupid afk ass.

Wait wait one more...

MAKE SOME FUCKING FAVORITES!!!

This is just like the tube thing. But usually at an AMS term. Nobodies got time for you figure out your fucking loadout. This is part of the reason for having a Sanctuary.

Actually, you know it'll never end PR.

The retardation at the Vpads must end.

holy shit yes. The grouping isn't what bothers me, it's the "yay I built my AMS.. ono i'm in reinforced armor, I guess I'll just run away and not manually deconstruct my vehicle"

although I've been guilty on more than a few occasions of getting killed and going afk leaving groups of people stuck behind me at the spawn tubes.. doh

Squeeky · 2003-05-21, 09:43 AM

If i spawn an AMS in reinforced i will run as fast as i can and change armor. Every time ive done that ive gotten back in time to get the vehicle before it decontructs. All though i got sime nice tells

LesserShade · 2003-05-21, 09:46 AM

I realized at some point during beta that I should not ever cert myself in vehicles that don't let you drive in reinforced because I'm in reinforced 100% of the time in game. I've done the build AMS while in reinforced thing a few times too many.. although I manually deconstruct! :O

of course, if you're actually building an AMS the reaver pilots can wait for you to go get in agile and come back because you are actually accomplishing something.

Yeah most people who were in the beta get it, but we have a lot of newbies out there. It might take them some time to realize that when they see an enemy, they need to crouch and fire, not run and gun.

If someone moves in front of you while shooting, then stop shooting.

What really annoys me, is when you're trying to assault a base... you're moving down some stairs... and you've got about 4-5 guys pumping fire into a doorway. Well that's fine and dandy, but damnit when there's a lull in the fire I'm going through. You're not going to get anywhere sitting there shooting through the doorway... SOMEONE has to move through.... and when they do, they WILL be moving in front of you. It's your job to stop shooting long enough for me to get through the doorway so we can actually advance into the base and not spend all day exchanging shots through a doorway.

Ditto for attacking towers. Some people go around corners, and stay all the way back against the wall and fire up the stairs. Well DUH... if I want to advance around the corner and past you... I have to cross your line of fire just to get around the corner. If you were up closer to the foot of the stairs, then I could go BEHIND you and advance up the stairs.

So when people run in front of you... take a moment to assess where YOU are in relation to everyone else. Perhaps you are giving them no choice to advance other than crossing your line of fire.

Nice post Bodhidharma. Welcome to the Forums

Navaron · 2003-05-21, 10:12 AM

I picked up about 200 grief points because of people strafing infront of me while I was locked down in my MAX.

Zatrais · 2003-05-21, 10:19 AM

Well said. I agree 100%.
