About Me






I've been gaming since before I got my NES on Apple II's and an old IBM 8088. Never had an Atari or Odyssey. I got an NES for Christmas in the 80s and have been a gaming nut ever since. I love Nintendo's IPs and because of this I've bought every systemm to date (including VB). In addition to every Nintendo system (-Wii), I've also own a Dreamcast, XBOX, 360, and PS3.

Wednesday Night WarCawks: Success?
bhive01 | 8:08 AM on 09.20.2007 28 comments




Well, last night we conducted out first experiment of the Wednesday Night WarCawks. I set up a server right around 7 pm EDT and we got going pretty shortly thereafter. There for a while it was GoldenDonut, Spider_Pig, MagesX, and myself in a free for all with a few extra stragglers coming in from the general population to make it 8. By accident the first game was a straight up free-for-all deathmatch, and ended up being a lot of damn fun. Spider_Pig threw out some trash talk and made it even more interesting.

After that match the game shifted to Team Deathmatch. Sadly this was a mistake as the game would only let me host 8 people at a time, and 1/2 of the people from the first game left. This made it a 2 v 2 Team Deathmatch with a huge freaking map. Hard to find someone to shoot, and not so fun. After talking with Spider_Pig and MagesX (sorry I missed you GoldenDonut), we decided to join a ranked server and play a game with more participants. This is when -D- and Hoygeit joined in, and someone else too, but I can't quite remember who. This was a good match with lots of assplosions and chaos. It was excellent much like the first match was.

I think it was a success. What do you other guys think?



And if you didn't participate this week. Consider playing next week or this Friday (FNF). I think we'll just try and hijack a ranked server next week since if a lot of you participate we'd probably fill up the 8 slots I'm only allowed to have when I host a game.



Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

I sniped a dude in the middle of a firefight with my team, it was glorious.

How many damn rockets does it take to kill a tank?!

I think it's 2 maybe 3 if you can't aim. The binoculars take em out in one hit. Land Mines are also pretty effective.

Fame Throwas are very effective, but you have to be close. Rockets from afar.

If you can't aim with the lock-on of a rocket launcher, you should just recreate the Tiannemen Square protest.

DVD don't hate, the dude hasn't had internets in a while anyways.

I'm jealous of you all in general. Do I buy this game?

@Snaileb

Yes. Pull your system out of storage.

So I bought it last night but I had to do dinner with the gf. I'm in for next time. Be warned...I totally suck at this game. Flying those Warcocks is hard work.

I think most of choose to stay on the ground for that reason, no problemo.

I don't like the planes at all. I only use them to get where the action is. Then I find a tank or go by foot. Sometimes it's fun to ride around in a jeep and then jump on the back when you find some action.

Snaileb: By all means yes, it's hellafun.

I *will* be there next wednesday.

The standard server is 8 ppl. (mine too), you have to find someone with a fast connection in order to host more. Maybe we'll find a dtoid lurker that has a t3 behind his house *rawr*!

And don't worry, WarCawks ARE hard to fly, but once you see that you can use them to jet across the map in 3-4 seconds, you'll use them anyways and do your best to avoid missiles.

Also, fyi for tanks, it takes 2 locked missiles, 2 landmines (or combo thereof) or one missile turret direct hit to blow up teh tank.

It takes 1 flamethrower approximately 60-70% of a single pickup to destroy a tank, but you goes through that shiznits REAL quick. I LOVE this game, and can't recommend it enough to anyone that has a PS3. I've never had more fun online, in any game, ever.

My name is Balth, and I play defense.

That is all.

It was a lot of fun! Definitely a success I think.

Sorry I got on late and wasn't able to stay on for very long.
The time I was on was a blast though!

We need to figure out a way to get all of us on the same team.

I think that's one of the thing they're working on... joining the same team if you join through your buddy list. Dunno when to expect it though.

@Bhive

Considering the Warhawk team is 6 people strong, I'd say never.

Actually I tend to be better at flying around in the Warhawks (at least I think so). And maybe its because I've been playing a lot of other games this past week but the ground controls felt kinda awkward, especially since I spontaneous developed a case of needing the R/L invert turned on.

My most hilarious moment by far was when someone was shooting at me with a tank but I managed to get in close and jump in. Then I popped the top and just started shooting it (doing hardly any damage, but having a good laugh) and a few people that were running around.

Now I'm pissed I had to work late. I didn't get home until 8:30pt. But I will take time out of Halo for next week.

I had a good time. Some moments i would like to foget. Others that will last forever.

Here is how I see it..

1. Get your buddy list in order. If your new!!!! put your name up we'll add it.
1a. contact bhive01 about adding you to the [TOID] clan.

2. Lets meet up in a private room at whatever time we decide, Play every man for themselves for a while.

3. Then when we get bored, find a level 4 ranked server, those usually have enough room for 10 or so of us, sure we are going to get owned for a while but at least we can kill each other and get credit for it.

4. i forgot what i was suppose to say.

I'd say it was quite the rousing success. I didn't believe D about the whole "Watch out for Bhive in a tank" thing at first.

I wish I did.

But I'm totally up for doing this every week. Or day.
