WHY IS THERE NO SPOON??

You make it sound easy Spaz, if 3/4/5 Dios attack me, I can handle it, but if two of them are slinging plasma all over the smuggler car park, where do I jump to? 1 v 4 and two of them using plasma is hard, and I too call myself "pretty much a vet", I suck at atdm but pwn in Deja's, SG, especially AG, Factory ctdm, which is almost identical to atdm etc...

Altfire in this context of medkits is irrelevant... To stay alive in an outdoor Altfire map like Area51, you must kill consistently with a headshot FIRST shot, EVERY time... every single shot must be a headshot, no misses to win against the most skilled teams... Again 1 v 3 in mid-air is extremely hard, because you must perform 3 perfect headshots while manoeuvring, and even then only two of the enemy need to hit you, in the chest, will be quicker than your three headshots...

A skilled altfire game will entail no use of medkits at all really unless the enemy are not top fighters and hitting you in the legs and chest, in which case they are probably dead unless outnumbered you heavily and you had no cover...

And nukedeath blows all arguments out of the window, all it needs is one headshot on one person in that room and you killed a whole squad...

I keep hearing about this. What is "Nukedeath"?

Post by **~][FGS][Nobody~** » 08 Oct 2008, 15:16

Nukedeath was a mutator, hosted on the old FGS servers, which made the killed player to blow up.
So, if the killer was in closer distance to the killed victim, he blowed up as well. Very evil thing. :lol:

Hmmm. Nukedeath server with short-medium range only weps? That would be cool.

Well it's the things you need to practice are the things you run away from. Somebody keeps shelling you in ATDM. You just leave, you don't take ADS and try to get around it do you? It's determination to beat the opposing players that you need, not skill.

@Chris: Iceworld is a 0 aug map, and Iceworld is tiny, also it has a medkit, enough for the space.

The maps do have enough for their size. Take smuggler for instance:
3 Repair Bots
5 Biocells
3 Medkits
5 EMP Grenades
2 Lams
2 Gas Grenades
1 20mm
1 WP
That is MORE than enough for the size of the map. Now, take into consideration area 51:
2 Repair Bots
9-10 biocells
6-7 Medkits
10 Emp Grenades
5-6 Lams
7 Gas Grenades
3 20mm
3 WP
1 LAW

Now admittedly I think there should be another Repair bot in the hangar, but there's a free cell, lam, emp, gas and 2 medkits there. You have to go looking for these things instead of waiting for them to come to you. Even though the quickest way of getting medkits is to kill thy enemy.

Also a good tactic is "if you don't think you're gonna win, run". I personally wont run, and will chase you if you do run, but somebody with a heavy isn't gonna run too fast after you.

All the maps are missing a Super-Rocket.

Actually, speaking of that, could you PM me the Superrocket, or a link I can get it from plz? (I have seen a link for it, but can't remember where it was) I'd like to include it in a map.

Skilgannon, if you're getting owned by players like JE and BabyKakian and saying they have leet skills, you need some serious upgrade in your in game performance.

Alright, PMed.

@Yanni: Quote the post, you're referring to, next time. Thanks.

Nukedeath means that you cannot attack someone really with DTS or any melee wep, it's a suicide mission, also standing next to your teammate in nukedeath server is a really bad idea... it alters tactics quite significantly...

If you score 65 in a normal server, you'll score maybe 100 in nukedeath, from the amount of twits who decided to buddy up and camp the spawn or attack you while standing too close together.

1. YAY!!! Someone actually spelled my name right!!!

2. I was merely exaggerating their skills with the English language to put across the fact that they are very good.

3. Yeah, well, I've only been playing a couple of months in AltFire, and less than a week in Brad and Zero's, so please keep those comments to a minimum. Ta everso.
