Now you all may know me as the kid that goes for all the kills during domination even though its not team deathmatch, but that all disappears in this game. One match seamlessly moves from game mode to game mode. For example, you may start of with a five minute body count (team deathmatch), and then move on to assassination (protect somebody on your team or attack somebody on the other team). I find myself trying harder to actually win more on this game than any other I have played. Give it a rent...it might be hard going straight from WaW to this, but if you give it a few hours there is no doubt in my mind that you will end up liking it alot (except for dole as he has no taste in video games whatsoever). So many more features in this game than other FPS's out there. If you like being tactical and really playing as a team then you will like this game. Do you still like it mike?
Hwo do I have no taste so ever.

I like the same games you do.

I like RFOM, and COD 4

I think r2 is garbo but I play it to play with my clan.

So what do I have no taste in?

i unlocked all the ranks too...still a ton of stuff to unlock though. Ive already logged in over a day i think. its so damn good. i was in the top 3 percent this week so i got a medal for that. aiming for the top 1 percent this week so i can get an even better one. thats pretty cool about this game too....top 10, 6, 3, and 1 percent of players each week get a ribbon next to their name to show off to everybody. should i feel good that everybody knows i did nothing but play this game all weekend?

Its cool when you die as a saboteur...your body keeps changing from Helghast to ISA. What is your sensitivity set to? Mine might be a little too high. I have it set two clicks to the left of max for both x and y axis. Maybe thats a little too high? I might tone it down a little tomorrow and see if i improve any. That might be the reason i dont do so well with the smg.

Takes more skill than CoD4 or WaW in my opinion. And I'm NOT just saying that.

You know i think you're the man Dan, but with all due respect you played WaW for about 3 minutes. No idea how you like COD4 so much and dislike WaW so much.

And also Dan, you have put COD4 and WAW on the bottom of every "skill" list you have ever done.

W@W is kinda strange in the fact that we almost never run into other clans. As for skill, it is a different type of game. Games that require more hits to take somebody down will always have a higher skill factor. It’s easier to distinguish the good players from the really good players because of the longer gun battles.

In COD, when you get your sights on somebody it is pretty much over unless the wonderful lag decides to kick in. That, of course, also means that you tend to die a lot more on COD than other games. Really, KD is almost completely irrelevant in many COD matches which is refreshing that not everybody is playing for it.

The fun factor is the most important factor anyway. R2 prob has a higher skill factor than COD but it isn't fun at all. While the lag drives me postal the overall fun factor on COD is very high.

And what should be at the bottom? CoD4 is the easiest online game i have every played. R:FoM took the most skill without a doubt, as a good player could kill somebody, get shot in the back, turn around and get the kill on that person as well.
Last time i got on W@W i played one game and got my highest kill streak...so i dont know what to think there.

Dan, you asshole! The reason the game is easy for you is cause you sit and snipe while we do all the work with getting and keeping flags. Of course you rack up the kills! :twisted:

RFOM gun battles = the best.

last time i played i didnt play with you guys ;) I would have but NOBODY was online. You're all slacking. :lol:

Playing with you guys on CoD4 i actually did start playing the game mode and capturing flags i guess. Probably because I just always felt bad when oldschoola threatened to leave. :D
