Budzilla posted:Tonight I was playing and someone on red glitched the final stage of Goldrush. The last red spawn area that has 2 levels that leads up to the sniper's balcony. Someone managed to build a dispenser and a teleporter exit at the top of the stairs that still part of the red spawn zone. So enemy spies could hide behind where people spawn and instantly back stab them. That's wonderful, I need to see if I can figure it out.

It's too bad this ISN'T real life because while you're all sitting around a table getting your pants in a twist over psychology and griefing theory, some dude could just walk in and flip it over to grief you. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

I'm gonna have to say that _c4m2_ElevatorHere01 is the best vocalize - yelling at everyone to get in the drat elevator is just so perfectly absurd. The analogous No Mercy 4 command in L4D1 was awesome too. c1m1_elevator_door_open is novel too - on c1m1 it makes everyone cough, and on all other maps it just makes Coach cough, regardless of who you're playing as.

I don't really consider griefing to be just being annoying in a video game, so I'm not one to bind vocalize commands to my attack keys (I can only listen to Coach yell "MUTHA" after every burst of fire a thousand times or so before it gets old) but there's a few vocalize commands in L4D2 that don't work unless the intensity level is high enough, i.e. huge horde during a panic event, getting slapped around by a tank, incapped and getting pummeled and about to die, etc. The best of these I've found is setting up: bind mouse1 "+attack; vocalize chainsawused;" This will give you screams more annoying than the death screams and have Ellis randomly yelling out "DIE DIE DIE MY DARLIN'S" during big fightsfineX posted:That one was awesome because the guys thought it was hilarious as well, and not malicious in any way. Yeah when I posted earlier about how bad Ventrilo griefs typically were this was the one exception that came immediately to mind. "Must've bounced off the moon or sumthin'"

I like that Ventrilo Harassment vids just straight up call it what it is, harassment. You can compare griefing to Kevin Bacon teaching some uptight people to dance and love life all you like, but when I click play on the Duke Nukem video, its to sit back and enjoy some human suffering.

My favorite grief happened back in SWG. It wasn't anything spectacular and I rarely got to see a reaction when I did it, but it always made me smile. I was a straight up melee build for a while as master TK/Fencer/Swordsman and found a wicked mind-fire gaffi stick. This was the bane of afk grinders. The reason why the weapon was so badass was how your stats broke down. You had a Health Bar, an Action Bar, and A Mind Bar. Each skill or technique that you used would use a certain amount of points from these bars, but they would regenerate. If you were poisoned you would constantly be loosing an amount from your available stat pool, but it would eventually wear off and you would regen the lost amount. If you got set on fire, a certain percentage of your total pool would be removed until you went in to see a dancer or musician to heal. SWG was basically a PvE game with consentual PvP. It worked on a flagging system like WoW, and just like in WoW people would flag themselves permanantly or just forget. It also had a very robust macro system and you could automate just about everything. Add that in with the fact that you had to master 6 random jobs to unlock your jedi slot meant that there were always people AFK grinding the Dancer and Musician class because it was boring as hell to level them. The Dancers and Musicians had two purposes. They would buff your mind stat, and they would heal your mind damage. They couldn't heal themselves however they had to watch someone else to get healed. When you danced or played you would just sit there and use a set amount of mind points every few seconds and would get xp if people were watching you. If you didn't have any mind points, you'd still go thru the motions, but you wouldn't get xp for it. That's where the mind fire comes in. I would whack the flagged afk dancers with my mind-fire stick a few times. Not enough to kill them, but just enough so that they wouldn't get xp while afk grinding. You could log out and come back 5-6 hours later and those grinders were still there with no mind, attempting to buff people. Unfortunately after that amount of time they wouldn't be able to check their combat log to see who hit them, so I never really got too many complaints. I can imagine how pissed they must have been though considering some of them lost out on hours of grinding time. God Damn Dam God fucked around with this message at 00:13 on Dec 18, 2009 |

Uncle Fumbles posted:I think it was facility where if you were quick and lucky enough to find proximity mines early you could proximity mine every single spawn point on the level and because it was split screen you could see where the other guys were dying and go back there to replenish the mines. Putting proxy mines on proxy boxes was golden. I used to play GoldenEye with my dad and a few other friends, and he was the master at placing rear end in a top hat mines. Just around corners, in nooks, on the back edge of door frames. It's actually hard to play with somebody when you die five times in two minutes trying to get A loving GUN.

Everquest 2 Ok, Everquest 2 has their holiday events going on right now and they've added a zone completely covered in ice. There also happens to be icy snowballs which players are able to pick up off of the ground, and collectible items littering the ice. What people don't realize is that the icy snowballs cause a knockback and completely interrupt any action the target may be performing. The first chance I got, I gathered some snowballs and camped out by some of the collectible items that everybody was going nuts for. Players would continually try to pick up the items only to have me blast them in the face with a little holiday cheer. I'd let them try to collect them for a few minutes, then when I got bored I would hit them a final time and steal the item from them. When their frustration peaked, they would typically message me with "cocksucker" or "human being" and I would ask them kindly to not refer to me with such harsh words! They would continue on, and I would have no choice but to send in a report and get them a probation. It was better when I got a couple friends in on it and we kept people forced into the corner of the map and made them completely unable to do anything productive.

My fellow griefers, CoD:MW2 is the promised land. Generally speaking, the xbox live crowd are already predisposed to getting angry very easily. Without fail, the following technique will produce the purest anger and tears, the likes of which have never been seen. In MW2, teammate collision is perfectly tuned so that when you're right next to someone, you block more than 25% of their path. Meaning: If you can navigate them into a corner, by standing against them and directly away from the corner, you will trap them. They can't wiggle out and they can't jump out. All they can do is swear and curse and threaten to hack your xbox account. code:Also, a less annoying thing to do that still generates some yelling (but mostly laughs) is to just stand in doorways. I had our team loose because they were laughing so hard at "the guy who clogs doorways".

Playing a free-for-all, avoiding everyone so you have more lives than whoever is left, and then suiciding with them is hilarious until you get a controller thrown at you. The best way to be a dick with Dedede/Kirby is to use their B attacks, spit them under the stage, and float back up. That way they can't recover and you keep your life! Another way to grief in Brawl is to yell the moves you use at any given point. If you're Old Manondorf, you should always yell Sparta Kick when using his forward tilt, followed by Little Sparta with his down tilt. It's also lots of fun to do when playing as Pokemon Trainer, because a lot of moves actually have names. Charizard's all the special moves, down smash is Earthquake, one of his throws (I think it's the forward throw) is Seismic Toss, etc. If you're Fox, you can run away to the other side of the stage, spam B, run to the other side, spam B, etc. Fox Illusion helps
