[Cthulhu]

It's not bad.

If you want to see a game where bad players ruin games, play Global Agenda.  All matches are 10 on 10 so when you have two or three recons on your team acting like fuck-ups you can feel it.

It's always recons too.  They run around with swords trying to melee people and getting their asses killed over and over.

Isn't the whole point of recons to be sneaky-sneaky? That's what I got from the description of the class at chargen.

[YouR_DooM]

I still got the backscratcher and the Southern Conf Thingy Wrench I'd like to get rid of. I'd love either a Direct Hit, a Wrangler, Kritzkrieg, or a cool Heavy Minigun like the Tomislav.

Anyone Interested?

[Siquo]

Compared to me you're all still noobs, so stfu about the noobier-noobs 

Every class is useful, but change classes when what you're doing is not working, that's the best tip there is.

[Jackrabbit]

Yeah, when you're having one of those days where you can't kill a single dude, try out every class, switch up a bit. I remember one time I hadn't gotten a single kill in fifteen minutes and I switched to heavy, a class I hadn't played in about two weeks and mowed down five people in a corridor before getting ubered and completely blunting a major push.

[Siquo]

Exactly. Also, try to pick classes nobody is playing. Sometimes it's because that class is totally useless in the current stage of the current map, but more often than not you're supporting the team by playing something different. Even if it's not enforced, just pretend there's a 2 player cap per class.

[Jackrabbit]

I'd disagree there. It's courteous, I know, but if you want to play a class, play the class. It is all about fun, after all.

And of course, given the way the game works, if there's too many people in one class, it's usually not fun to play it, so it all evens out.

Anyone had problems on 2fort with aimbotting snipers? Last game I was in, I would run out the back entrance, as scout, get to the ledge, jump, and before I had finished the first jump, I was headshotted. Went out again, bottom layer. Got out the door and bam, dead.

[Jackrabbit]

I get hit as a scout all the time by snipers in 2fort, I'm sure you were just unlucky.

[Siquo]

True dat. All classes are fun, though. I even play a sniper now and then, nowadays. Really useful necessary in the Hightower end-game, for instance.
I've played heavy a lot lately, and although I rack up insane amounts of kills, I kind of get bored with him. Now I often play classes I suck at, for fun, until my team actually starts losing the game.

Oh, no. Sniping scouts is relatively easy....with your scope on full. This guy was running around and head shotting us. Repeatedly.

I eventually resorted to using a spy to go out and backstab him. Cloaked in room, ran out. Before I jumped off the ledge I had been killed.


EDIT: another pertinent detail. He was getting achievements left right and centre at the time. The starting ones in particular.

Oh I see your problem, your playing on 2fort.

[Neyvn]

You know, the new images that appear on the main menu are nice, but the way the Sniper is holding his Rifle up to his eye and the fact he wears Sunnies would mean he should have an eye full of glass on the first shot. The scope would backlash, smashing the glasses and yeah... It should be held higher (as in his arm positioning and a little bit further away from his eye...

Will someone blow this realist up?

I have a choice. 2fort (with aimbots) or non 2fort, in which case I die to snipers in melee. Because of the 300-400 ping.
