Alright peeps, I'm back on again. Hopefully some people will join me. I played a few hours ago and no one was online, so I got stuck with crap teams when I played Heroes, Goldeneye, and Black Box.
it wasn't your fault, RDB, i was doing pretty poorly. i don't know if my playing was off or if it was a connection issue but my guns felt totally ineffective, it just seemed like i couldn't kill anyone fast enough no matter which one i switched to.
i had some better luck with the other nintendolifers, though. what a mess the four of us made. i noticed some hackers when playing with tech. one guy had the ivana spec, another the masterton, and both were using proximity mines... at level 20. yeah, that's not right, but at least they weren't invincible.
so far the only guns i've really bonded with are the hawksman and the terralite. everything else feels too unbalanced or has become obsolete, but those two are just perfect for what they do. maybe the strata and ivana spec will be better, but i won't know that for another eight years.
Man, there were some good and bad games in there, today. I'm still trying to get my groove back from not playing for almost a week, but after you guys left, me and romulux tore it up in the Jungle, until the host ragequit. I'm not used to sucking that bad at outpost, but it might be because the other Nintendo Lifers were taking my kills before I could get to them.
Oh my god, this game lags like crazy, why can't it find a proper host that doesn't make the game lag like crap? Its almost a game breaker for me... but this is just insane, and what makes it worse is that it doesn't even search for a new host when the game is lagging so bad that your literally having spasms with the controls and walking into walls.
I personally think Eurocom did a really awful job with the online, its so laggy that it destroys the whole experience...

BTW Chris, I may be able to play about 10ish your time tomorrow, PM that is. My online is really good, don't know whats wrong with yours. Try putting region lock on.
It's like, I just love a cowboy
You know
I'm just like, I just, I know, it's bad
But I'm just like
Can I just like, hang off the back of your horse
And can you go a little faster?!
Yeah nice matches everyone! We had a few close ones so I changed my strategy on a couple of those. Man sniping with you guys is so easy. No one even cared about me since you guys were tearing it up. Either that or didn't realize I was even sniping cus they were getting killed left and right anyways.
Yeah I noticed those goldeneye matches where they were using proximity mines but that's all I noticed. Didn't realize they were using better weapons also. With that soar we still did pretty good against them except the one time viper and I had to go against nerrel. We almost had a tie and I noticed time running out when I was protecting someone and said oh shoot we are about to loss we need another hub. Before I got to one we had already lost. Those goldeneye matches were brutal on our kill to death ratio but as long as we were winning I didn't care. All I want to do is steal away their hub or at least make it neutral. I like when we have 4 players. It will more then likely give us the host since its hard to find 4 open slots in some other game.
Sorry Gren on that one match we went up against Zane and nerrel. I tried sniping but though they were going to be to smart to fall for that and was right. I should have just switched weapons.

i remember that match. if i recall correctly, both of you guys scored better than we did but still lost because your other teammates sucked... always funny when that happens.
great games last night/this morning for me - i realized that playing with 'lifers not only can drop your kill count (kinda makes me wish they tallied assists - that'd show how well your team worked together), but can dramatically increase your death count if you are used to playing with strangers - i noticed two things on that subject: 1) the routes i usually take are almost always clogged with nintendolifers, picking up kills i might normally have (and vice versa), which can leave you emptying bullets into dead bodies sometimes because you don't see the +5 on the screen, or what have you, and 2) more rapid killing = more rapid spawning, which can allow them to get behind/flank you in a hurry if they are familiar with the maps at all of course, the counterargument is that when team-killing as an actual team, you are less likely to die, due to the increased firepower and the unlikelihood of most of the strangers working together effectively, so - heh
edit: one more thought is that usually when i play with strangers, i just run routes, see someone, kill, repeat - there is much more of a tendency to want to stay (relatively) stationary to protect spots (like the long hallway/stairway/turnaround combo in nightclub) when playing with a decent team that can actually sweep - but then of course the enemy has an idea of where you are.
OK we are really really good or the competition was really bad. Sorry Tomas and random for those first two matches.
Good games with you earlier tech. You and the other NL guy were doing really well. I'm currently using some of the crappier weapons to boost proficiencies and get some XP, because I haven't been online much in the last couple of weeks. Those goldeneye matches flew by, I'm not sure our opponents were fully sure of the best way to win the round, but it was nice to have a winning streak!
Don't forget, @everyone, add "[NL]" before your name, so that our name will become synonymous with death on the battlefield.
I've added everyone up to intirusu so far. Will add the rest next time I go online. Of those I've added so far about 10 haven't added my code, so please do if you get the chance (see FC in signature).
And I have to say this... Memorial is by far the most crapiest map on GE... its dark, its small, and its usually always a camp fest...
Really? I like Memorial, because everyone tries to snipe and I just run around and try not to let them do that. It kind of sucks when everyone's sniping, though, and you're the only one on the ground.
ha, memorial is my favorite map - i love the interaction between the snipers and the run-and-gunners. not to mention that there are plenty of viable counter-strategies in that particular map to combat snipers (use the bunkers to get around, stay out of the open and off the hills). i actually think it's one of the larger (maybe the largest?) maps, which can be a detriment to the snipers because you can't let your guard down when zoomed in - too many avenues of attack to defend.
edit: you know what? i actually am starting to really believe the level design might be better in this game than the N64 GoldenEye... they really did their homework, there are so many well-thought out options. one exception: what's with that dead end back alleyway in Docks... that could have been awesome if there was a back window in the sniper loft you could jump out of and get to that back alleyway, because as it is, i see no point for it to even be there. even in the madness of conflict i don't ever see it get used.
And the silencer on sniper rifles REALLY helps, they all run around like headless chickens when I kill all four of them.
And I do agree with peoples points on Memorial, I was using a silenced Sigmus and an unsilenced Pavlov (pick-up) running around the map running and gunning and then snipe when alls clear. When I get a kill or two with the sniper I move on... I went flawless with 23 kills.
one exception: what's with that dead end back alleyway in Docks... that could have been awesome if there was a back window in the sniper loft you could jump out of and get to that back alleyway, because as it is, i see no point for it to even be there. even in the madness of conflict i don't ever see it get used.
I wondered that, too. No one ever goes back there, unless they're spawned there, first. It's the only place like that I've noticed in the whole game. Maybe there was another use for it at an earlier point in development, or maybe they had to cut back the size of the map to make the game run more smoothly.
I'll be on in a few hours, for a few hours. Grenworthshero, I don't see you (viper 04) in my list. I'll get the other one or two new ones updated also. Hopefully some others are on this evening. I really like Heroes and Goldeneye, but it's so hard with strangers after playing with lifers. Most people just stand around and wait to kill in GE, instead of capturing and moving, capturing, moving, etc... It drives me crazy. I see them standing around waiting to kill someone. I've been really close to shooting them just to get them to move, but lifers know the game and play to win. In Heroes, we play as a team and try to stick together where many others will just run around and try for kills. I haven't seen that process work yet, unless it was like a lvl 40 or higher, which I'm sure the nicer weapons help. Can't wait for lvl25 and the Terralite. I've picked it up a few times and I do like it, just waiting till it's in my loadout. Romulux, agreed on the Hawksman, the other pistols are garbage. What's the trick to destroying the black box? I played with a high lvl once (38) and he could destroy it in less than 30 seconds, same thing for download... way too fast compared to anything else I've seen. Hacker?
