Us two pretty much got the PS3 side of things started, thus all pints at beers we attend should be on the house for us two xD

To a certain extent, more mentality wise if anything. I was K/D obsessive, now I'm W/L obsessive Good thing about the lads here, is they are for the most part are objective driven, with the lads(clan) I used to play with, pub matches were all about their scores/stats and I got caught up in that crap tbh.

As a player though, I was better before and those who played with me will know that. COD2 and 4 came so naturally(both in comp and pub) , MW2 derailed me somewhat and found my feet again with BOPS.

I agree, and will happily drink on Eamo's behalf (talk about taking one for the team eh?)

Corona please.

For COD4 and WAW I only ever played hardcore mode on splitcreen with 3 friends because we didnt have internet. When I got MW2 I was the typical always crouched creeping around the map player. By the end of MW2 my motto was basically never stop running which I've carried into Blops. It makes a slow paced game fast paced and enjoyable. So yeah i've changed a bit

Was thinking about this yesterday/today.. Wondering if anyone else might have noticed it happening with them.

When I first started playing with the Boards lads, I was not rush minded at all, I always had the mentality of sticking behind defending, not camping, (well I say that but we all know that when someone is in the one area of a map all game people are gonna call it camping, I liked to call it tactically deploying myself in a tent)

Anyways, my first game on with the lads was with Hypermuse an Beertons, didn't realise that the game was gonna get so different the more I played with more of the boards lads. I remember we had a game on Havana, Hypermuse ran straight to the enemy spawn, I was like eh what is this guy doing, I'd be guarding our 2 bomb sites, making sure the enemy team didn't get one, then a few days later I started to play in a party with Hyper, Ade an I think Kersmash an Lee, not too sure, but the same thing was happening again, lads, straight into the enemy spawn, I'm sitting back looking at them going, WTF am I gonna do, I can't get a kill when they are in the spawn an I'm outside it watching the bomb sites.

Now with me its a whole different story, the whole big FIRST BLOODthing that comes up now, like its crazy how much I rush, sometimes it gets me into alot of trouble, I run into packed spawns alot an get riddled with bullets, but for me, where hacker was once a needed perk, Mara pro is on every one of my classes, maybe the lads can't remember or don't notice me changing, but I've really had to adapt my play style to try "fit in" with the boards lads, an in the process I have gotten to be a better player. When I first started playing with the boards lads I had something like 0.71KD an at the moment it stands at 1.14 an growing, it might not be great to alot of the lads here that are beasts, but for me its some bleedin change I tell ya!

What about you lads? had to change since playing with boards lads or in full partys? An are ya better or do ya feel better now than at first?

When I started playing COD (think I got MW2 maybe 5-6 months before blops came out) I was a lot more hesitant! I'd sit back and take the high ground somewhere and try control that part of the map.

But after a while found it boring! I find Rushing to be so much more fun, challenging and has far more variety than sitting back!

Oh how you've grown Balf!! You gots the real 3L1T3 0pT1€ zk1LLz now dawg!

just wondering how you guys play - i realized the other day that my typical setup is based on completing perk challenges, rather than chasing K/D.

I'll still play for the win, but if i'm going for ghost/ninja/hardened i'll have a setup with silencer, LAW, etc

i'll also try and change up weapons as much as possible (but i've still got a stack of FAMAS kills), currently using ak47u (grip/rapid fire) with lightweight, warlord, marathon

once i complete the warlord perk, i'll go for tac-mask pro - so i'll change the setup to include scavenger pro too

When I was prestiging I'd always go for my most used perks first, FJ/SOH/Ninja, then just work towards levelling up as fast as possible.

I stopped prestiging at 7, so my first goal was to get all perks pro. Atm I'm trying to get Galil into top 5 guns so to knock the famas off and then to make enough money to buy everything available to me

Never worry about getting a higher K/D as long as I'm winning.

I think iv gotten alot stronger as a player. I am a fairly good team player these days and I'm much more able to control my killstreaks and read the other team. Plus I think I began to enjoy the game alot more. Mainly due to watching you guys play and wanting to not fail so playing my heart out :pac:
