*ANTICIPATION*

(It's Like A Dream Come True.... I'LL Be The One To Educate Red On A Video Game... Wow... *Sigh*)

I checked my stats over at naughtydog & evidently, by kdr, Ice Cave is my worst map (1.41) & Train Wreck is my best (2.45). I was actually surprised by my Sanctuary kdr (1.98). I thought it would have been one of the worst. The thing about Ice Cave is that it's my least played map & The Village (1.63) is what's actually hurting me the most, methinks. I don't know why, but I seem to get blindsided much more frequently on that map. It also seems to hand out terrible respawns more frequently as well. I've spawned into a stealth death before. Yuck. Anyways, any advice for The Village?

lol. They Are Quite Different Aren't They?

Yeah. He Approached Me Fairly Early On, & We've Pretty Much Played Together Since.. How Much Longer Did You Play After I Left?

I Was Going To Ask If You Had Checked Your Stats Yet; They're Steadily Rising!
Yeah Though, Those Stats Surprised Me Too When I First Checked Mine. I Expected Some Of My Bad Maps To Be Alot Worse.

I'm Crap @ Explaining Stuff, But I'll Try...

Personally, For Ice Cave, I Almost Always Hug The Stairways On The Side, Stay Downstairs, Or Near One Of The Initial Spawns. I Usually Only Go Down The Middle If Im Intent On Nabbing The Deagle Or Lots Of Action Is Going On Around There. (Actually "Going" To The Middle Seems Like A Bad Idea, Especially If It's KotH/Chain Reaction.) A Shotty Could Work OK, But It's Too Tight & Getting Naded Is Easy. & From What I've Played On Ice Cave, It's The Best Map For Using Your Teammates. When Pressing Into One Of The Spawn Areas, They Like To Go The Same Way, Allowing You To Take An Alternate Route Unopposed.

Again, For Village I Generally Avoid The Open Area. There Are Simply Too Many Directions To Get Shot From. Paying Attention To Teammates Locations' Can Help. Using The Tree & The Houses Under The Sniper Towers Are Great For Tricking People, Doubling Back Weaving In & Out, Etc. (& Nades Of Course. 90% Of People Will Pursue After Shooting You.) The "Building" Side Is Easier To Manage. Especially On Top. (Where The D. Eagle Is) It Gives A Good Vantage Point Over The Majority Of The Map, & You Can Hear People Climb Up. I Usually Head This Way When The Match Opens, But A Good Amount Of The Time The "Other" Shotgunner Will Lie In Wait As You Claim The Deagle, So Keep That In Mind. Down Below It's Easy To Shake People With Multiple Routes of Escape, Nades As An Deterrent. & Actually, The Only Real "Useful" Riot Shield Placement. I"ll Use It Occasionally To Protect Myself As I Back Out A Door.

&, I Know I Don't Need To Say This, But As A General Tip For All Maps Always Try To Have A Nade Handy. Personally, I Think They're The Most Useful Tools In The Game, & You Never Know When You'll Need One.

Hopefully That Helps Somewhat, & Sorry For The Wall Of Text.

Thanks, man. I'll try to keep all of that in mind.

Word. I've definitely noticed this. I almost never go anywhere without one. They're just too damn important.

And I had never seen this until today. Funny stuff!

I Think They Should've Kept It To The Top 5, Those Were The Best IMO. ^_-

Oh, No, Not At All. You Always Play Well, & I Wouldn't Exactly Categorize My Play As "Stellar" Either Anyway. If You Were Feeling Like You Were Holding Us Back Or Something, You Can Lose That.

Just Try To Keep People From Pulling You Off Cliffs & Shit. ^_-

On An Unrelated Side-Note, Those Resi FFAs Were Lots Of Fun. The Game's So Old That I Really Didn't Care About Performance, Which In Turn, Made It More Enjoyable.

GGs!

Had some fucker glitch out of the stage on Temple & The Fort tonight, though. He had on 'come get some', so the nubs just keeping going over there. Gross. This all after I shoved his shit in on Temple. Guy was a purchased black rank, but stll couldn't aim a gun correctly. He was 'the hammer/rpg' guy.

&, Uh, What Do You Mean By "Purchased" Black Rank?

Ranks can't be purchased? I was under the impression that after a certain rank you could "purchase" other ranks with your in-game cash, much like the boosters. No? I wouldn't know, but I thought I had heard that somewhere. Either way, his rank was black. What's that rank?

Not that it matters too much to me, but I might be able to achieve my 2.0 kdr tonight. I suppose those even number kdr's are always a little special (RFoM was def the most important for me to achieve & keep...funny how that game did so much).

Anyway, Ranks Go From 1>50, Then Change To Roman Numerals, With 55=V, 58=VIII, Etc. So The Nubber You Faced Was Level 60. (Which Is Max Rank)

It's Funny, Though Not Surprising, That After All That Playtime He Still Can't Aim. LOL. Hammer It Is Then.

Hehe, It's Funny, Like You Say, The Even Numbers Matter; 2.0=Cool, 2.1 *Shrug*, 2.2=Cool. The Only Time I'd Go Against That Is If It Ends In A 5....

But A First Account, 2.6 K/D On Resi Is Just Awesome. I Was Pleased I Managed A 2.0 On Resi Myself, Though In A Way, I Kinda Took More Pride In My 50% Carb Acc/HS! Ratio.

GL On The 2.0 Acquisition!
