Bump to reach out to interested parties again. If there are interested folks, let me know what time you’ll be on. Rooms that I end up in tend to fill up quickly.
I would love to play with you, how can we make this work?
I’m in Holland, so when I’m playing you are probably working and when you’re playing I should be sleeping, what is the time difference? 7 hours?
so maybe this weekend?
ready to fight ignorance with plasma grenades!
This weekend is fine by me.
I’m pretty decent at Halo, highest skill was 45 in lone wolves. Got up to 39 in team doubles (which is pretty difficult actually, it was a lot easier for me to get 45 in LW)
Anyways, I’ll give you some tips on plasma grenades. I wouldn’t worry much about sticking people, for the most part. I only go for plasma sticks if I can use some a bubbleshield or energy door to my advantage. Pop through towards to opponent, throw a plasma, then pop back into safety real quick. You’ll have to lead them a little bit, but it just takes practice. The other time I go for plasma sticks is if someone has gotten the drop on me and I’m sure to die. If they’re right in your face about to melee, it’s pretty easy to stick them and take them out with you.
The way I get most of my kills with plasmas is simply by sticking them to the ground. This works great defensively, if you’re hurt, run away around a corner, then stick the plasma where they can’t see it. If they come around the corner they’re going to be really hurt. If they saw you stick the grenade, they’ll stop and you’ll buy enough time to regen your shield. Being defensive and staying alive is a big part of Halo.
I need to get my x-box hooked into the net then I’ll look you up. I have no competition locally. I cat and mouse people who I play with at home. It’s been a while since I’ve played online.
I always switch to Boxer for sword games. That brings the melee to the left trigger which is a great advantage.
Well, let’s get a game going this weekend for sure. I’ll be around anyways, so if you guys see me on the Friends of Friends list, shoot me an invite.
Cool, looking forward to it.
You understand If I get one even kill, I will declare myself the moral victor?
Saturday, I should be on around 19:00 my time(Holland)…that would be about 12:00 your time
hoping other Dopers show up too…
Also, on those other forums are some things to help people get better. The Halo community there is pretty big, skilled, and loves to help people that want to get better.
If I’m home I’ll have a look in at around 19:00 and see what’s happening.
ETA: Actually that would be 18:00 my time.
Same here.
sorry can’ t make it, the doctor says its the flu, but I pretty certain I’ m in the first fase of zombiefication, moving my laptop to the bedroom, so I can keep fighting Ignorance from under my covers.
Had fun the other day though…
Tall ya what. Here’s how we’ll do this. Whomever wants to get better, send me about 3 videos from your Saved Games. Make sure they’re in your File Share so I can get at them. Just let me know what numbers they are. I’ll go through them, watch them, and tell you where you’re good and where you suck.
Yeah sorry guys. Had a friend drop around and couldn’t get online as they wanted to do meatspace stuff, wierdo
