Sweet fresh meat! Just dont get ticked off about veteran players slaughtering you, visit the forums regularly and ask for tips here and you should be great. For instance any questions on strategy/classes? I find that the more players that are educated early can help other newbies who don't refuse help like a toddler.
thanks for the advice ive already read up on a number of the game mechanics and different class guides, but i still have a lot to learn that only comes from experience i find im doing better then the "fresh meat" that end a game with horrible ratios i really like the assassin and im not one of the people running around trying to be ninja and only kill Pros and i also like the support since he has a lot of utility
Your the best kind of newbie. Willing to do back research and bring themselves to the forum. Well there is one minor tip with assassin you should know: shurikens do massive damage to the moneyball from a distance. This is key when overtime happens or when you just want to be an **** to the opposing team from a range, which is a must. Just keep reading and try out more classes and you'll be up there in no time.
Enjoy the honeymoon while it lasts. I'd say it was worth $15. But all I do is get frustrated when I play it now because it's buggy as **** and the balance is questionable at best. Nearly every class has some sort of gimmicky feeling rage enduing maneuver that leaves you questioning what uber weed Uber must have been smoking when they thought some of this **** up. "I've got a great idea guys! *busts out a joint*" "Yeah? Lay it ON me homie!" "Alright-- *light, chief, drag, hold...exhale* --okay, so, every class can upgrade their abilities, right? *drag, pass*" "*drag, nod, exhale* Yeah man? *wheeze, pass*" "*exhale* Let's make them ALL overpowered as **** when they're level three *drag, hold it long, close eyes, exhale with a satisfying groan" and call that **** balanced." "Brilliant. Get Gabe on the phone. *long drag* And tell him thanks for this great ******* weed." I mean for **** sakes, nearly every engagement once the game gets started comes down to "who can land their level 3 ability first". Assault bomb? Lands? Oh I win. Assassin level 3 katana grapple from any ******* direction I please? Lands? Oh I win. Tank level 3 charge? Lands? Death Blossom? They're dead as ****. Who the **** thought this approach was okay? This game is a balance nightmare. The developers are clearly trying to cater towards an elite, cream of the crop competitive game level with the razor thin lines of *** whipping they have with balance where one small misstep can cost you your life -- which is okay for players and leagues and tournaments where every step is finely calculated and thought out. But as this game is played in a 99% pub environment, it only leads to obnoxious pub stomping across the board nearly 24/7, and you're either on their side, or against it. Don't get me wrong, I've had a great time with this game, and you get good games out of it every once and awhile -- seriously epic games, at that -- but would I recommend it in light of the bugs and balance? Cautiously. And that's only because I dig games that put a fresh spin on a stale feeling recycled genre.
im aware of the shuriken trick but i appreciate your willingness to help i seem to have a problem with star 5 tanks hehe, then again from what ive read and experienced assassins aren't too good against the tanks its a bummer when no one else on your team can kill the tank tho haha
Tanks are your second biggest problem as assassin (assault being the biggest) and the only way to kill them is with a lunge backgrapple and even I am even more careful when doing that.
Might wana specify that you meant THEIR post. But yes, their post is a rant on things they don't like. It is perfectly fine for the game to be that way-ish. BTW, i'm curious... what lvl3 skill does the gunner land? Deploy? Slam? Grapple? It is about keeping map control and hitting your enemies better than they do you. What else would it be about? MW2 is all about who gets 2 bullets of their UMP45 to land, and Black Ops is the same word for word except UMP45->AK74U.
To be honest, I'm with bro here. I'd rather have my enemies manage three skills and two vastly different weapons than have a gun that kills you in less than a tenth of a second with no aiming involved.
but but... then i actually have to think about what im doing and cant just run around shooting at everything that moves...
Please, I have no problem with rants in general but when you come into a thread where someone truly enjoys the game and is open to learning new things and improving and you spout crap about it that has absolutely no relevance the game, I see a big problem with that. If you are going to rant you don't do it in a thread like this where somebody really likes the game. I will have no problem accepting your opinion if you took the time to make a thread of your own. It's like you saying "Wow this apple tastes very good and I appreciate the people who grew it so I can continue to enjoy it." Someone hears this and says " **** THAT APPLE, IT TASTES LIKE CRAP! ORANGES ARE FAR SUPERIOR" It shows little relevance and little intelligence. It doesn't help anything to rain on someones parade.
Let me fix that for you, Goose. GTFO here jackasses, if you don't like the game then go play some single-player oblivion or fallout bullcrap, the internets belongs to the better players but at least you can molest mehrunes dagon for the 200th time (ohh so hard, not). But seriously, if you have a problem with the game, find a way to fix it without complaining? Suggesting balance issues is one thing. Claiming the game isn't balanced at all and trashing it without reason, doesn't help anyone. You will still suck, we will still be annoyed by you, life will go on. Correct: Take your problem and invite me to a game so I can show you how to fix it. If you still dislike it, come up with a way to fix it and submit it to the wishlist. Incorrect: Take your problem out on anyone having fun with the game, derailing all their threads with unpleasant unhelpful whines.
This post speaks volumes to me. While the fact you went Assassin made me cringe, what you had said helped ease that a bit. I will give you a bit of advice as a Tank player, directly attacking a Tank from any angle can mean bad news for most Assassins. Using the hazards and/or the Assassin's skill will help you deal with them. While most Assassin players will use her Smoke Bomb as a means to escape, the better players use it to disorient enemy Pros. Simply lunging towards a Tank, smoke bombing, then just slicing away until they are grapple worthy can mean pass or fail for Assassin. Not only does the smoke bomb flash the player on screen it also frazzle's their brain a bit, thus making their judgment off.
i appreciate your advice i'll try your tactic the next time i play. usually i tend to stay away from tanks so the outcome should be interesting hehe
