Any requests for tonight?
Is "Everybody TOW Slider" a game mode? If not, can we make it one?

I'll check the menus, but I think we'd have to set that up manually.

Half of us could hide and spam binoculars and the other half could spam TOWs!

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

We did everybody vs. Slider last week.

I think if we do that again, I should get to pick my team mate. I pick Steve.

Just in case Steve doesn't show, we'll let you pick your teammate in-game. Just tell us who you want, and we'll hook it up.

Caveat, I won't be checking PSN messages, as I'll be far too busy with all of the carnage...you'll have to actually tell me.

But you would still be attacking only me. Maybe me, Slider and Nic versus everyone else but we get to use mines and play dirty, the other team doesn't?

I will have a different headset tonight so I'm sure how it will sound or if it will even work properly.

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

Pretty epic night fellas.

It was tougher than usual to get the games even, but hopefully everybody won a couple and had a good time.

at the bit with Brian's wife driving off the cliff! Wish you guys could have seen it.

I also loved flying my TOW deep into the cave Slider was hiding in. Awesome.

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

Yeah. I think everybody should be thanking me right now, because after tonight's game I have come to the very real conclusion that if I hadn't been spamming all those TOWs since starting the weekly game, Chess would have been getting them and doing it himself.

I did have fun, but seeing all those TOWs getting spammed made me wonder why I decided to lay off.

In all fairness, I was cool with Chess TOW'ing bitches... when he was on my team. Driving Flip off the cliff was just all too much fun.

Sorry, Flip. I had my binoculars ready for at least 3 minutes and you were the only one I could find. That it happened to be in the middle of a "increased douchbaggery" speech was awful timing.

Chew, taking out two warhawks with one tank shot was amazing.

If I did that, I didn't see it. When/where did it happen?

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

I wish I could have seen that...or was I in it?

I used maybe 8-10 TOWs all night, Slider, and I can't tell you how many I pass up. You, Z and nic probably get most of them so I can see how you'd think that, but here's the TOWs I remember:

- I hit you hiding in the tunnel on Archipelago with your sniper rifle and binoculars (wish I'd thought to grab your backpack)
- I hit Steve on the mountain top on Island Outpost (binocularing)
- I hit Z on a flag run (mostly to help Mrs. Brian score a flag)
- I think I hit Z one other time, because I always get a "was that necessary" and feel bad
- I hit each of my 3 guys from work once or twice, as promised, but none of them affected the game much...more of a side project
- Finally, I teamkilled nic, waited for him to spawn, watched him make the long run to get his backpack, and landed to grab his backpack right before he got to it. "Bastard!"

There might be a couple more, but certainly not more than 1 or 2 per map. I don't think "spamming" means what you think it means.

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

You TOW'd Steve while he was in the missile turret protecting our flag as well on Archipelago. I remember you using at least three in offensive manners during the first seven or eight minutes of the Archipelago map. Not just on people who were using binocs. That's how you guys got up one flag point so quickly. I didn't use binocs or TOWs at all during the lobby or the first TDM, and I even tried to defend our flag and make a couple unsuccessful flag runs before deciding to up just camp with the binocs because of the TOW usage. I don't think I used any offensive TOWs last night. One on Steve, but that's just because I hate it when he camps that bullet turret thing.

Chew, you took me and Z out in the first few moments of the Archipelago map.
