New Clan

    O.k. As far as a I can tell the following are interested in starting a clan :-

    Jaden
    Lolth
    Amp
    WWMan
    Shadow
    Paladin
    Me

    There are no guidelines here. As far as I'm concerned anybody can join. If you're ****e you won't get to play as often as others but thats life. If you're an lpb you'll probably be always wanted. I am not proposing myself as leader either. Maybe co-leader with someone but if someone has designs on being leader of this new clan then fire away. This clan will probably struggle at first and hopefully get better smile.gif
    If you mentioned in the other post that you might be interested then just decide. Don't ask me if you're good enough or whether we want to give you a trial just add your name and lets go.
    I want to play CA (of course), UT and Q3 so all players should get plenty of play. All we need are people to organise leagues. Thanks to Jedi the Q3 one is organised allready. By the way he's right about limiting lpbs. Never mind Q3 but in UT you have a real advantage with a low ping.

    P.S. Bugblaster - you still interested?

    This is very cool, good to see new clans being formed.


    This makes 4 quake 3 clans, with HIV and Dk playing as well.

    Any of the other old-school clans feel like getting in on the act? CW Scobe???

    It actually balances in UT, though I don't like how they do it.

    When someone is HPB, it's harder for them to hit you with things like the shock rifle, so they've made it harder for LPBs to hit people with things like the Shaft. Which imho sucks, but it does wear down the LPB/HPB problem, I guess.

    Ja,

    imho UT is a much more HPB-friendly game. LPBs may have the shock-rifle, sniper rifle etc - but the Flak Cannon, RL, Chaingun, and Biorifle make up for it.

    In Q3 though.. ick - Plasma, Rail, Lightning Gun, Machine Gun.. Q3 lacks a decent spammy, area effect weapon apart from the RL. In Q2 the SSG was a life-saver for HPB, but the SG in Q3 doesn't work half as well.

    Well on Tempest ( is it?) , the one with low gravity then you don't stand a chance as a hpb. Maybe overall it's not as bad but that's my experience so far.
    I might not have said up to now but I'm with the UT bandwagon. Much better game than Q3 from what I've seen and played so far. Sorry.

    Yup, 'morpheus' is hard on HPBs, as it's so open and it's much easier to hit people when they're floating around between the towers with a low ping. The final version has a sniper rifle on it, and invisiblity! Hmm, invisible LPB with a sniper rifle.. oww.. smile.gif

    And of course, Instagib isn't a whole hell of a lot of fun for HPBs smile.gif


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 344 ✭✭shank


    Yeah Morpheus is a bit[h on hpb's as musician learn't last night smile.gif, however anytime I play Spoon on it, it's pretty much even stevens and he has one of the skankiest pings this side of ethiopia. most servers seemed to have removed Morph from Deathmatch rotation unfortunatly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 649 ✭✭✭Spoonman


    Thats cos I camp the respawn spots at the bottom. No Seriously.

    On the topic of UT giving lpbs savage advantages, thats true in any FPS game where reaction times are importaint.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,275 ✭✭✭Shinji


    Good Good, another Irish clan to play UT... Rockin' smile.gif Competition over here is liable to be every bit as good as in the UK at this rate...

    So far we have, DzR, EM, HIV, DF and you lot... This should be fun smile.gif


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,316 ✭✭✭ButcherOfNog


    errr we are? ****in news to me so it is.

    perhaps you should check who plays ut for doozer, its beginning to look like Hot Internet Doozers smile.gif


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,275 ✭✭✭Shinji


    ok last I heard you were smile.gif

    (runs off to check Doozer page)

    ffs who let Doozer get that big! The US DoJ shall be hearing about this... Judge Jackson will have words... Stifling competition, uncompetitive behaviour, monopoly.... boooo! Spoonman is Bill Gates, I tell you! smile.gif

    Since all of HIV seem to be playing UT, and playing it for DzR, wouldn't it make sense if HIV played it as a Clan? Just a thought smile.gif


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,316 ✭✭✭ButcherOfNog


    I suppose to folk who would be playing UT against DzR it would smile.gif


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,275 ✭✭✭Shinji


    And which category do you think I fall into? smile.gif

    I'm more worried about Doozer in the UKUTL and the likes than I am about UNR or EED... Either of those teams are good in DM, but can't play CTF, DOM or AS to save their lives... Hell, EED have put Vaggabond in charge of their CTF and DOM training and tactics, now thats desperation! smile.gif

    However, DzR show all signs of being good at all the teamplay mods too, which is a worrying thing... sad.gif


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 728 ✭✭✭Nexus


    count me in MUSO for q3 and UT but not for CA as i'm a GT at heart smile.gif

    Quote "I wasn't playing qw on friday"
    ok right so all the computers in dcu and
    your house were broken or something?
    And if it wasn't you, then who was it?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,484 ✭✭✭El_Presidente


    Well Gerry (If that is your REAL name)

    If you read the other posts you would know that my name had been left on the PC after I had finished playing. Someone later came along for a game and didnt bother to change the name. Hence Verb thought he was playing me when it was clearly an imposter (Poisibly Kane if he was able to emulate my level of skill smile.gif


    Now quit your whining and come down to my house for a duel.
