Second chance Revives

    I just figured out why Iv never been revived. Its because I had the ability to upgrade to second chance pro, but neglected to do so. Look out for tzn1428. Iv got an Ireland flag as my tag thingy. Ill be the lad layin on the ground, bleeding out.. shooting you in the face as you reload :3

    And you are NOT a noob? :rolleyes:

    I'm not a reviver, that perk is used only by noobs, simply because they are selfish and sh1t at the game.

    Tac Mask Pro and Marathon Pro are awesome perks why anyone would choose Second Chance over that I don't know! Hacker is pretty awesome too. But nothing on Tac Mask pro.

    You are spoiled for choice with good perks that will help you win the gunfight and objective, but instead you take the most retarded perk possible. Do you use Ghost as well?

    I never said I wasnt new to the game. Im only playing it about a month. Christ you online fags are an angry bunch arent you? No, I dont use ghost. Contemplated it, but didnt.

    Time spent on the ground is time wasted not killing the other team. Its a shit perk and I wouldn't lose marathon pro for it.

    slap a smoke grenade down in front of him for extra measure, anything that prevents him from getting some cheap kills, even if he is on the same team

    OK then, so as someone who has been playing it since the day it came out. Change that perk to Tac Mask and get Tac Mask pro. You will never get badly flashed again, and will likely actually win gun fights.

    Iv only ever been flashed sporadically. Never tactically. As in, its coming flying out of nowhere and gotten me - But Iv never been killed directly afterwards. I win plenty of gunfights. Just because I use second chance doesnt mean Im automatially sh1t

    How many games have you played? You rarely get flashed? I call bull on that, I get flashed at least twice a game, I doubt you are flashed sporadically, unless you are playing a private match against people who don't know how to use them.

    As a matter of interest, what's you k/d and w/l?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,292 ✭✭✭TangyZizzle


    Maybe we have different ways of playing. I dont tend to run head long into a gun fight. I prefer playing tactically like trying to flank the opponents etc. Dunno, Ill find out tomorrow.

    If I hadnt just looked it up, btw. I wouldnt have known what a noob was. Cute :)

    I have a question for ya:Why do you use Second Chance?Does it give you pleasure watching people who should have killing you die?Do you like to annoy people?What is the reason you use it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,292 ✭✭✭TangyZizzle


    I noticed there were challenges for it like getting 25 kills while in second chance, stuff like that. I know the reasons for it being hated have been explained, but I still cant understand how you can take a feature of a game so seriously.

    What game mode do you play?

    It is only a game, but theres nothing as annoying as being on a good streak and outplaying people fair and square then some dickless player who would rather use a sh1tty perk and take the death wrecks it.

    You should play Hardcore, see what happens when you use 2nd chance then :D

    As Iv said before - Team Deathmatch.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,656 ✭✭✭✭everlast75


    A troll I am not. Just curious. That's a fair enough point. In future, just put enough bullets into the noob so that they are dead before they hit the ground.

    i always revive:oBut im a miserable xp whore(cant believe i do if for 50 xp!!)

    AM i part of the problem?lol.

    hate been killed by the feckers though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,178 ✭✭✭hypermuse


    As it happens, I frequently play in team deathmatch - so the kills are always the objective.



    :D


    So your telling me lying on the ground not moving and sitting there with nothing but a handgun (a super handgun) is better for your team than you moving about actively trying to get kills!!

    I understand you think you are helping by not giving them a score.. but since you dont get revived you eventually get the death..

    so there is no way it is helpful to your team to sit on your arse with a handgun out!!!

    You would be far more productive putting on marathon and getting back into the action quicker... or using hacker to stop cheap deaths from claymore etc!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,009 ✭✭✭Shammy


    Second chance doesnt really bug me that much , if you know theres a few on the other team using it then you know you have to put an extra few into them when they go down.
    Would i revive one on my team ? i have done in the past , if its tdm then yes but objective games , i dont have the time.

    If you mainly play tdm and use the flanks would hacker , marathon or even ninja be more of use to you ?

    I tend to use the flanks a fair bit and depending on the map use marathon or hacker. Tend to use marathon on the large and larger medium maps like array, jungle, kowloon, discovery and hacker on the small ones and smaller medium ones like havana, summit, nuketown where equipment is more of a threat. That said, I play a lot more domiantion now so tend to use flak jacket with marathon pro on some of these maps, especially summit. Ninjas doesnt compete with either one imo. With marathon be pepared to get killed cheaply a few time just running into claymores and with hacker be prepared to be 3/4s of the way to their spawn and then the spawn changes.

    This, how is it more beneficial to be sitting on your arse while the rest of the team is playing the objective (in TDMs case getting kills) rather than being active in the game? its as bad as ghost pro campers who sit in a corner waiting for someone to run past and wind up with 5 kills for the match, yet no deaths so their kd looks beastly

    In Mercenary Team Deathmatch, using Second Chance, I've never had any problem getting revived by teammates.

    People don't revive you in other game modes, so just use something else.

    Second Chance is a good perk. It just annoys some people because it can take them by surprise when they get shot by a guy on the ground. And that is just carelessness on their part.

    I reckon there are a few headless chickens who run and gun around the map, and they hate running into claymores and getting killed by fellas using second chance.

    So they abuse the guy who uses Second Chance, by calling him a noob.

    It's a bit childish.

    Dont want to spam one of my own videos but this clip is why I hate second chance:

    If you're a sh1t player it is yeah, same as Danger Close in MW2 was. if you were a sh1t player.

    Justify it all you want, if you use 2nd chance, you suck. ;)

    ^ Less of those insults please. Keep it civil, othewise infractions then bans will follow.

    Thank you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,656 ✭✭✭✭everlast75


    As far as i'm concerned, people can use it all they want. It is within the game.

    Then again, lying on the ground waiting for a bloke to run in line with your sights, whilst being perfectly within the rules, is generally accepted as poor form.

    Why? Because its cheap.

    Noobtubing is cheap.

    Second chance is cheap.

    People post on this forum because they are fairly passionate about the game (as much as one can be about a videogame)... and the fact is they dislike people taking the easy way out. Its Treyarch's fault for putting in the game... but people who use it on the basis that "its in game" and I'm doing nothing wrong are as defensible as Nazis saying "I'm only following orders" (I'm kidding but you get the point ;))

    As Iv said before - Team Deathmatch.

    You said you have been flashed a handful of times but if you played a more tactial game mode like S n D people(well the good players) will use them very regularly to flash the enemy but also to see if anyone is around the corner or a room.

    What annoys me about second chance is the ability to knife instantly and also shoot instantly. 1 or 2 sec delay would make such a difference. You might think this is unfair but the reason your in second chance is because you were killed in the first place.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,958 ✭✭✭Mr. Rager


    Some of the posts by second chance posters in this thread have honestly put me on a permanent faceplam :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,401 ✭✭✭Royal Irish


    Since I play hardcore mostly, there is no killcams and you view through one of your team mates POV while spawning. While some of my team mates have been viewing through my POV, I have been caught shooting team mates while they are in second chance. I'm not proud of it, but I'm not ashamed of it either.
