/understands My womanzz wanted to learn to play. Only plays Sedna, also, lol. And after a bit of time, once she could actually beat the medium AI, she sees me playing Borderlands and promptly decided to play "learn" that game. And this is after a BF2 "learning" (which is still in the sealed box with price tag attached, sitting on top her computer) On a side note, the only game she plays with any
Will probably be back after this damn Mount & Blade: Warband addiction. Must...take...over...world. Nothing is as satisfying as riding a fleeing opponent down on a horse and whomping him in the back of the head with a morning star. Then I'll be back to DG :)
[quote who="OMG_Splitshadow" reply="40" id="2642088"]Demigod is really a gentlemen's game. It requires effort from both sides to create a fun game. The entire community needs a period of detente to end the Cold War build up where one side chooses UB, the other side chooses UB, one side chooses Oak, the other side chooses Oak, until every game ends up as Oak/UB/Erebus.[/quote] This. Random games are bad ass fun. The "the worst could happen th
lol! You guys will make me paranoid. "Hi Bob, how are you AREYOUREALLYHEDGIEORPACOV?! today?" I probably like DG better with ignorant bliss. Get on vent and I discover how much my teammate really loathes me for not going optimal build.
Thanks Pacov. lol, wish I knew what your smurf name was now. I'll try to join. Last 2 times it was 2 guys arguing and I didn't jump in. Something about summoning bishops in time.
I dunno, maybe I should try vent again. Everytime I lurk on vent, it sounds like a few unhappy people bitching and getting passive aggressive digs on each other. But some of the guys on here prove my point. I like DG where it's random and unbalanced, so my team is throwing down ideas. "Orb of defiance on a bait guy?", "What about we chain swap him back so he's afraid of the towers?", "Ok.. ok, you tank out and I'll keep gadgeting u to keep you alive".

Karebear, those are awesome too :) Rawwwr, I still remember playing some PUGs with/against you quite a while back. Was not a good experience, no thanks m8.
A) Play random PUG games, like all real men do :) B) Some peeps need to STOP crying about generals vs assassins. Enjoy the game more. Some of the most memorable games are 2 regs and a TB against 3 t1 generals on random. We lost, no surprise, but we tore them up and the desperation of our situation evolved some crazy ideas. Hell, last game we'd universal gadget our "bait" guy leading the greedy SOB into 12 mines. Lit
Had to add Mithrandar (sp?). Good sport and good teammate in a PUG.
Bartek is the best rook I've seen when he's on a good day. BurnEden is skilled, but I only ever see him play 2 DGs. I have seen him in a few random games, which is a good thing, but he didn't shine there (yet or those-times). HowBoutNoooo. Hard call. He had a rage quitting period for a while there. Wasn't allowed in some of the PUG games I was in due to it. Maybe it's cleared up? *Realized that the "Wip" I was
Question: PrizmSmurf, why is he on hated list for a one time comment? I've played a bunch of PUGs with him and he's pleasant. BTW, -Heros- Temp deserves his own category. Equal parts "skilled" and "spends an amazing amount of time floating through lobbies for a perfectly stacked game in his favor so he doesn't go down in ratio". He plays quite well, but I gives me a smirk when he comes in the lobby. I tell others he the fortune tell
[quote who="OMG_Sol" reply="6" id="2623174"]I miss the good old days in our all random matches cinder having 2 TBs woop a ub was hilarious.[/quote] Haha, I remember that. Awesome when 3 t2-3 assassins against generals, and we win out of teamwork (read: desperation). BTW guys/gals, which would be the "forgotten" DGs? You think Cow counts as T1 (in before the lock!)?
I'm sick of the top 3-4 DGs. I'm sick of games where the players are so terrified of a loss, they'll all pick oak/ere/ub and then the other team, out of the same fear, goes oak/ere/ub. If banging my head against a wall wins me a game... then it's not a "game" Currently I just host random games (pure random). Should I look at a "Lesser DG" game? Anyone interested? No rook/ere/oak/ub? Or should we hit rock bottom and do only T3
Eh, we're all nerds at heart, my friend. I have probably 5% in common with anyone on here, but that 5% is "likes to play team games". I work full time as a firefighter, go full time to college, have teh womanz living with me, etc. When I used to get on vent, listening to the extreme level of metagaming, I'd just think "f*cking nerds". My g/f would hear some of the talk and then give me hell for understanding it, lol. But I keep coming back for a fun game.
Bartek123. This guy is solidness itself.
This might be fun :) Those that shine in random pugs. That do well with most or all DGs, with general tactics and team gameplay. Who play a solid game everytime. Bartek1234 Boxxy_Mithrandar CelMare Grahf Jona Neverfukwithareg Navenodreem Soccer_Mom
Maybe I should start a "Random PUG tier list"? That would be interesting.
I don't belong on any high end list, I make plenty of mistakes. But my thoughts are from playing with a few "tier 1" guys/gals and seeing them treat this game like it has a retirement plan. Some pass secrets on how to allegedly trigger procs, etc. Things that may well be bugs, for all I know. Use programs that tell what others have in items. I straight up consider that cheating. But I agree with others. Throw several tier 1 players in
I hate stuff like this. You have the truly skilled and tactical players. Those can push a lane with Reg alone. The TB that UB has to run from every time. Etc. Then you have the players that won't touch a game unless it's in their favor, their teammates are on vent, and/or they use a DG and build that will cover up the small mistakes that separate them from top category. I've played with/against Jona and found him quite good, but not in some h
Not exactly an exploiter since he didn't pull it off, but after this game I don't want to play with this clown. [IMG]http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l274/Alpha_Crow/Jon1.jpg[/IMG]
Quitting during the citadel does not invalidate the win/loss, eh?
My original point: people don't quit at cit collapse. A) He sucked, but has 76% win ratio B) He quit at the exploitable time, but I think due to lag, was unable to pull off an exploit. Him urging the host to quit near the end was odd enough. C) LOOK AT HIS GAME LIST. Go to page 2 and beyond. Literally half the page is "incomplete" and the other half "win". D) Listen to his bullshit: "The other people dropped on me in those games".&
Beware this chump. Take a look at his game list, go back 1 page and you'll see the huge list of "wins" and "incompletes". Played a PUG against him, he sucked, talked trash the entire game why he kept dying (bugs/lag/we're noobs), and tried to get the host to dump the match near the end. When that didn't happen, he quit as the fortress came down. Still gave him a loss, so I guess he didn't pull it off. Long story short: beware letting him in PUG
