I just realized: snipers can't do squat to turrets, right?

Just when I get in good position to snipe somebody and have a stationary target, it's a turret. I must of fired off at least 6-8 shots.

No worries...it's just your style to go flag grabbin...problem is that it sometimes blocks me from tracking down our flag because I have nothing to fly.

If possible, when you fly over to grab the flag, destroy the Warhawk you fly over in so it will respawn at our base.

Thus leaving him open longer to attack!

Your opposition thanks you.

Someone's wearing his angry eyes.

We'd make more of an effort to get you into the games if you had the expansions. You showed up last night right after we got 8... and one map before the expansions kicked in. I'm probably going to do more hosting so that we can make sure nobody gets left out now that we're seeing some more new faces.

Others may correct me, but I don't think we had 8 on for more than 10-15 minutes last night.

As far as I know, you're the only regular having any trouble getting in, and it's because you want to drop in at 8:30-9:00, which is 1) the busiest time of the night and 2) right before the expansions kick in.

Bums me out that you're upset though. Will ask flip to host next week, but I fear that you'll be equally upset when you get kicked at 9:30.

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

Angry eyes? Havent heard that before.

Yea I got on late about 8:30, but there was only that one level and maybe another before the expansions? How long you guys making those matches?

I dont mind getting kicked though. I like to go runinng everynight and that cut off makes sure I get off my ass.

sniper rifle does no damage, but the binoculars do.

I've been making the maps 20 minutes rather than 30...which means that we get to the expansions a bit earlier. I generally find that a lopsided 20 minute map is much more palatable than a lopsided 30 minute match.

But then Chew couldn't play in the snow...which was partly the point in the first place.

Yeah, use up all your ammunition and you are left with a knife or hand gun to defend yourself with

I'm just saying that it's hard for me to play defense when I'm left without a plane. If I'm on your team, it's in the team's interest to leave me one. I can't chase a flag down in a tank, and I can'd do anything with a jeep even if I can catch them.

I don't usually play offense just in the interest of fairness.

My strategy for flag grabbing whenever possible...fly over...grab flag...grab tank/jeep...blow up the plane I came in (just takes a second)...kill Phillip...get Liz...go the the Winchester.

But doing this will only exacerbate the situation.

A day before Tuesday, that's awesome Cnicholls44! I guess you can take my place this Tuesday also, I have to work. My schedule sometimes does not help my playing time at all.

Re: Weekly Tuesday Warhawk night

chess, why don't you still tell me which maps to load this week. I know you like to create the rotation... plus you know the maps much better than I do. Just send me a PM so it's still a surprise for everyone.

I won't have much time to play around with my rotation before tomorrow night and I don't want to hurry through and accidentally pick some bad maps as I've done before.

You mean we're not doing Uncharted 2 multi-player instead of Warhawk this week?
