Secret Sweater posted:Or the more likely explanation is that they didn't want to write code for a third faction hostile to both enf/crim and just made them a p5 enforcer since it doesn't loving matter either way and one requires zero extra work. Or they could just make them crims, because a bounty on a crim is a bounty FOR CRIMS AND ENFORCERS.

My name is Captain Swing. Pay strict attention to what I say because I choose my words carefully and I never repeat myself. I've told you my name: that's the Who. The Where could most readily be described as a Waterfront district on Patriot. The What is easy: recently I shot a lot of people and stuff happened. That's also the When. As for the Why: beyond the obvious entertainment, it's exceedingly simple… because I can. Which leaves us only with the How; and therein, as the Bard would tell us, lies the rub. It starts just like any other mission. I'm driving my Pioneer because I figured I might as well use it from time to time. Somewhere else Filzee (WildZeo) and Player (MrLonghair) are bumping around in their Vaqueros. We get a dispatch against two greens and two silvers. We roll up to the point - everyone in a different car, that always ends well. Crims are already swarming all over the place. Three of them on the point, one on a highway above it. I do the smart thing - ram my Pioneer into his car. He manages to avoid me, so I drive a little bit farther, get out and shoot him with my HVR. He drops dead and he also drops something else…  Really? One kill on a highway is all it takes? Anyway, in the meantime they manage to grab the objective and we're on the last stage. Zeo and Longhair clean up the rest and we're halfway through the mission completion bar. And then we lose.  "Wait a minute" you might say. "How did you guys lose a takeouts mission with your enemies having zero kills".   Magic. Boatload of magic.So this is how it ends, right? We kick their asses, lose the mission and everyone lives happily ever after. Clearly if we were hacking, we'd be trying to win. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ue_IRWgpojw&t=25s This time we're the ones on a mission and crims are after us. THE SAME CRIMS. And that's when the fun starts.  Ouch, that hurts my feelings. "bad aimbotters man" and "pistoling people so easy, its a joke" refers to me. Apparently you need an aimbot to strafe around a guy and kill him with an FBW. By the way, "loving gay death theme" is my own composition. I'm thinking about renaming it to that. Last stage - checkpoint hold. We go to the point, killing them along the way, but two of them are already on it and they grabbed it. We clear the place, Zeo and I get on the roof and shoot people coming towards us. Longhair (mentioned in the chatlogs as Player) is somewhere around, employing advanced field maneuvers like "flanking", "shooting people in the face" and "using cover". We do all of that and we don't even grab the point. This is the chat log during that last stage and everything after it.  It doesn't matter that I missed a lot of times, it doesn't matter that we weren't trying to win. To our enemies I was just a "dick up the bum oval office" - whatever that means. Also, "Kill Bill"? What does he mean…  Riiight. Some people only saw Kill Bill  tl;dr: A tale of crim butts that get hurt. Captain Swing fucked around with this message at 14:47 on Apr 2, 2012 |

ack! posted:How'd you find him or keep track of him? I've had some like that, but spent most the time in each round looking for the guy. Got 15 arrests once from it and agree, they're the best. 1. They always spawn on the street, so just circle the streets around the point. 2. Kill him, go to the other side of the point. 3. IF the time is running low, do the objective. 4. Go around the point one more time and kill him if necessary. 5. He should start spawning between the old point and the new one, so just drive towards the new point. 6. Once he respawns near the new point, repeat 1-4. The trick is finding him for the first time. I was lucky enough, this was my second match against the guy and he went AFK at the end of the previous one.

Vinigre posted:I did something similar when two crim trainees got out of a van, presumably to engage an enforcer. It was a stolen van, so I immediately grabbed it and parked it at the impound 50 meters away and watched it disappear forever. The van may or may not have contained package objectives. You can't get into a car with objective items in it. Believe me, we tried. What might still be possible is to find yourself in a car with the items, get kicked off the mission and be able to drive the car as long as you don't get out. I'm not sure about that because it's been a while since something like that happened. mpyro posted:How long did it take to dethreat to green? Hard to say. Losing threat is hard when your opposition is so paranoid, they won't go for they objective when there's a minute till the end and you and your team cleared out the area, or when they're too busy trying to kill you. I lost count of how many times we were on a win streak because of stuff like that. Captain Swing fucked around with this message at 20:26 on Jan 6, 2012 |

Secret Sweater posted:If you're in a car with mission objectives and you get kicked out of the mission, you get booted out of the car. Nope, just checked it to make sure. If you've got an item in the back and you get booted, item stays inside the car with you, and people on the mission can't retrieve it.

Didn't you use to play on Patriot? We have an OfficerSnake in Something Lawful on Patriot…SolidSnakesBandana posted:Some Noob questions: 1) During a mission it's a standard green=good people/red=bad people names. Outside of that: enforcers have either shields with stars on them or insignias as their icons. Crims have knives, brass-knuckles or some kind of circle thingies. 2) That's all there is. Witness missions are ONLY for taking money away from crims. You don't even level up your roles during them - kills don't count toward weapon progression. 3) Yes, just "ready up" and wait for a mission/dispatch. 4) It depends on your preferences. You like CQC? Shotguns or SMGs. Medium range? NTEC. Long range? Obeya, Obir or HVR. Play and get 5) There's no health display. Your vision gets more black&white the more you are damaged. You'll also hear a heartbeat sound. Find cover and you'll regenerate it.

I was saying it's been a long time since I got haccused and then this happens: I run into this guy (ninety degree turn snap while auto-firing a joker and some other obvious stuff). This was the second mission we beat this guy. How does that even work? Does he have a video in which he sees me see him through walls?

Secret Sweater posted:You can watch people ESP track you. I had a guy on waterfront below the freeway. The way it was set up, I could see him, but he couldn't see me. He started priming a grenade so I ran back and forth really fast and he tracked my movements exactly without being able to see me or even attempting to anticipate my movement for where I'd be after the grenade's travel time. So you're saying there are people out there who use aimbots for grenades? But… why? Anyway, that guy went through a lot - losing twice while your opposition is using only basic STARs does things to a man. I wish one of those guys, the ones with all that video proof of my "aimbots" and all that jazz would send me some of that proof, I'd really like to see how "blatant" I am.

Goofballs posted:Aren't you the max rank guy who dethreated to green on purpose? Most of the greens don't know what rank means but what they do know is you are green like they are and that you constantly catch them in bad positions and that your guns fire faster and are more accurately than theirs, sure its because you know the maps really well and have mods and experience but they're clueless and think they can play like its Quake. They know they are going to get hosed by some gold guy but someone on their level? Yeah, that would be me, but you're wrong about the rest. Most of the hackusations come from silvers. Greens and bronzes just accept the fact that they're facing someone who's better than they are. That last guy? Not only was he silver, with a high enough rank to buy an OSMAW, he had a macroed Joker. As for stomping noobs - let me just paraphrase what one G1 mod said to us (while he being carried by high golds that were stomping us and we couldn't get any backup) - This is a learning experience.

Today we played a strange match. Our opposition's leader kicked her team and then quit just to not let us lose. Afterwards kept on lecturing me that I should make an alt character instead of de-threating - moaning about OP guns (OSMAW, which I haven't ever bought and OPGL, which I used once) while using a Colby CSG.

I like CCG. It's almost like OCA's cousin with medium-range capabilities. Then again, the first LTL gun I used was the Stabba Pistol (I didn't hang out at the Waterfront too much and I didn't notice CCG so I thought you had to get to Cop 3 with the pistol before other LTL guns unlock).
