I enjoyed trying to air mine people on the ground on that "I didn't ask for mines" map. I was so over that map. I was done getting mined as I tried to clear mines and then evade the two tanks patrolling our end of the map.

Still... highlight of my night was flipping a mine on Slider's jeep on the second map as he ran me over with his jeep. Inconsequential, sure.... but wicked fun.



...and sorry Chew. I was blowing shit up in your base in horde mode because I knew that if anyone got in the air (namely digi) we'd lose the flag. So anything below that was of the opposing team got blow'd up. Basically horde mode doesn't work with lopsided teams like that anymore because, for the most part, we're all pretty competent. After you left we pretty much just backed off, played lax pressure and ended up in a tie. I think we were all just shocked we'd lost Chew we couldn't go on... Not even the acquisition of Slider could motivate us.

"I didn't ask for mines!"

We already tried the DLC fund.

Speaking of which, anyone seen ofermod lately?

In all seriousness had fun last night got a few good shots in here and there.

You don't say.

Here's a thought: Even with the DLC, you'd have less invested in Warhawk in its entirety than you do in map packs for Call of Douchey.

You've probably already spent more on lunches this week than the cost of Warhawk DLC...so pack a fucking lunch and rock some jetpacks already!

I was driving that tank around to kill the person on your team with our flag, I just happened to get there before he did. And yeah, I probably shouldn't have shot you point blank like that, but I was tired of the whining.

Also, I would have been more than happy to play a Slider vs. The World match, but it's not fun when someone says he's making you his 'pet project' and is playing angry because he lost a match, so I decided not to do it and kept switching teams. But whatever, I still had fun most of the night.

I am sorry Chew got frustrated as well as unfortunately he was getting the brunt of it. However, I dont think the other team did anything wrong at all as I think R2 is right, that is the point of horde mode. We have fully capable players on our team who are fully capable of defending themselves. The problem is is that we let you guys overrun us to begin with. We knew the risks doing horde mode so we need to also accept the downsides. Honestly I feel bad for the other team as horde mode is kind of like playing your little sister in basketball...if you win, well you were supposed to win anyway since you have more people, however if you lose then you suck(figuratively speaking). For me it would be hard to get motivated for that kind of matchup so I can fully understand piling on and It is a hard reward being called "douchey" or cheap or whatever just for doing a good job.

In general, and especially in horde mode, I never really understand why base raping is so bad. Yes, it sucks to be getting base raped, but it is not like the game starts out that way. The other team earned the ability to do it because either a> they fought hard for it or b> the other team just sat on their ass and let them do it. I suppose if you have been getting raped for 10 minutes then it is obvious the other team is never going to recover and the game is lost, however a few minutes of assault seems like fair play and no reason to immediately call shenanigans.

Also, maybe it is something that only happens when I am playing with you guys, in which case I will take that as a hint, but it seems like just about every game last night is just people getting their feelings hurt, throwing around accusations and just general complaining instead of playing the game. Am I the only one that feels that way? There were large chunks of time last night where I would just sit around doing nothing effective in the game at all and the general mood didn't change...so, I don't think I am the only variable in the equation here, although I know half the time when I am sitting doing nothing my name still comes up in some sort of accusation or excuse

I did Captain Obvious.
You are correct. $12 for Warhawk plus $17ish for the DLC is a great discount compared to 59.99 for MW2 and $14.99 x 2 for the DLC.
But consider this :
- the only time I play Warhawk is with you guys. I consider myself to be awful but I have fun with you guys (and gals). The few times I've attempted to go into pub matches it has been truly sad. It's slaughter on an epic scale. It's like playing in a room full of Slider's who are eerily coordinated to rove in Douchey packs looking specifically for newbs like me to pwn. not fun at all. makes me want to
- MW2 I play with both the usual suspects and I go into pub matches. I consider myself to be pretty good but streaky, and I think I can hold my own when motivated. Plus I logged tons of hours in CoD4 and even played on Gamebattles and played in a couple of competitions for CoD4. It's obvious i love me some CoD and some First Person Shooters. They just call to me.

You, sir, are incorrect. I pack lunches everyday. The cost of a wife, 2 err soon to be 3 kids and 2 dogs are forcing that issue and have turned me into a cheap bastard. I am fucking tired of turkey/ham/roast beef wraps and leftovers. I want some Moe's. I'd like some chinese takeout. I'd love some Jimmy John's super tasty subs. But NO. I sacrifice for my family.

All good...sometimes just feels like you are more interested in kill ratios than you are in team objectives. Your style is to play low risk (binocs, missile turrets, etc.), and it can be a bit frustrating no matter which team you're on.

I had fun overall as well...was just a bit aggrevated at the aggressiveness in some areas.

I dunno I just blow stuff up and get blow'd up good. Then I laugh and realize I just suck and its only a game and you guys are so silly.

No.

Here everybody, I created a counter so we can keep track of the number of times Cruz posts a smiley.

Who was it who made me kill myself? and then almost pee myself from laughter? ( I'll elaborate after I remember the guilty party )

no, you def should have done that, that was the high point of my night...as i said in the post a few weeks ago, the last time we had team damage, there is nothing better than frustrating somone so badly that they are just like "fuck it, kill me"...i just think those moments are funny, they wouldn't be funny if every match was like that, but when they are here and there, they are funny...


as I recall, the slider versus the world COD map, didnt go as well as expected for the world...

I hear exactly what your sayin brotha.

Im with Cruz, that is how I approach all of these games...if my feelings got hurt every time Nic beat me at something, I would have "put a glock in my mouth and made a brain slushy" a long time ago...

Like this?





Smileys are your friend

Last night was the first time in awhile that I approached not having fun...Maybe it was because i started the night with a headache, but when i joined, on Tau Crater, i spent the first 5 minutes trying to get up onto the platform, never seeing anyone, but constantly getting killed, and it was frustrating, and I thought, "am i in the mood for this tonight?"...and it did get better, but still there was inordinate amount of bitching going on...and I fear, with so many newer people with us, as Nic said, we are chasing people away (<---one sentence 12 commas).

I also think we need to try a match where we allow air mines, because depending on how good we get with them, they could even out the air superiority, Friz or Flip are chasing me, I lay a mine down, maybe they blows up, maybe next time they arent as aggressive, who knows? i think they are different than landmines, they are cheap kills (pronounced cheap thrills)...

we need to stop the complaining and just play to have fun. It really annoys me when people complain about something happening to them when their team was doing the same thing the map before and it was fun.

I hope nobody took me seriously on my nothavingDLC rant. j/k

Here everybody, I created a counter so we can keep track of the number of times I use this counter as a joke.

Wn I used to play COH/COV (city of heroes) I named a character that was a healer after my wife, since she is a RN...everytime she would bitch about me playing I would quickly change characters and be like "look baby, it's you!"...worked every time.

Well played sir. Well played indeed.

That was me. I was watching the match from the air, and it was a no-Warhawks map. You flew over and grabbed the flag and I mentioned the warhawks rule for King of the Hill, and...well, you know the rest.
