Slumping

Post by Hoos »

I have been slumping huge the last few weeks. I checked out my KD last night and it's fallen from a 1.89 to a 1.81 in a week. I've had the nuke 1 time in probably 2, maybe 3 weeks.

In fact, I haven't seen anybody on our team launch a nuke in a while. We use to launch 5+ a night.

I'm going back to the basics tonight. I'm dumping the nuke and going with care packages/ Hav / chopper. :oops:

I went from a 1.78 to a 1.68 in about a week and a half. seems to always happens where I have a major slide for like two weeks. I did have a decent game or two last night. I did the same hoos for a few days and it helped. I am back to harrier/Eairdrop/Pavelow. Bout to move pave low for chopper gunner again. I bounce around guns too much but I know that aint your problem Mr 50 cal with thermal scope.

.50 cal is fine...no issues with that.....but thermal scope? really?

I actually like the concept like on snow maps and such....but in the desert or urban area? There should be a couter for it....like when a counter UAV is up it "disables" thermal scopes with some type of flash or something.....i dont know

Hoos,

Do you like to use all of your magic points when you have to fight the Wizard, or do you just use your Fireball of Death with your Dark Night?

I think you can get double damage if an orb is involved.

There is a counter to TS, it’s called cold blooded.

Also, there are a few disadvantages to TS. On some maps, people are invisible in the scope. Like the one with the sub. If somebody is on the top near C, they will be invisible once you scope in on them. You have to just fire blind.

The snow maps aren’t the best for it because the targets are white and the snow background is also white. It makes it hard to pickup people fast.

Agree with you there. Grenade launchers are just an explosive snipe. Personally, I prefer rockets. Wanna camp? I haveth big bada boom!

I do all the time. I use a gun more than I do a sniper. It’s just that my time with the sniper is so memorable to everybody that they form incorrect opinions. :|

AJ...cold blooded does work. It makes the target very dull looking. You almost have to look for movement and then fire rather than getting a good look at them. Festy uses it all the time.

GD it Trendon! Are you really comparing sniping with a fucking grenade launcher? I wish my leg was 1000 miles long so I could kick you in the balls right now.
