Barret pwnage.
« on: April 06, 2007, 04:21:15 pm »
Ok, the map as ctf_equinox. I was on alpha, and it was 4vs4.
So the enemy was rushing through the main entrance. I shot with the trusty barret, it  ricocheted once, killed the guy, ricocheted twice out from the entrance and killed the EFC who was running at the bottom. Amazing, huh?

I find this not very credible. You say you shoot a barret that

Ricochets
Hits through a guy (this is already pretty incredible, because ricocheted shots rarely have the power to hit throuhg enemies)
Ricochets again (Now it shouldn't have any power left)
and kills another guy.

After 2 ricochets and one hit-through, the bullet must have lost about three quarters of it's power....think about it.

actually sytrus he says it ricocheted 3 times. 1 before the kill and 2 times after. wich means the bullet would have about as much power as me throwing my deagles on an enemy.

Yes, and that's why it's weird. :S

This is one where I got pwned.

I forget the map but it was ctf and I was on Bravo Team and the next score would win. Our flag had just been stolen so my entire team was trying to get our flag back. I snuck under the action and stole Alpha's flag. There was a "tunnel" under the level connecting the two bases so I dove down there and started heading for my base. I thought I was in the clear, so I'm about halfway to my base and there was a rock "bridge" thing where I had hidden before to snipe people in the tunnel. I keep running forward and forgetting how that spot could be used I ran right into it and just as I'm almost there, there's Alpha Teams missing guy with a barret. He took my head off, returned the flag and they went on to win the match.
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want... He restoreth my soul he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies:
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

With all movies showing off someone's skill, you could make anyone look good. If I recorded every single one of my Barrett headshots, ricochets, etc over time, I could make a video like that, too. It still took some skill in some shots, such as when he was binked and when moving a little. Plus the fact that he had no Sniper Line, which is great :D, since it is annoying when people put it on. I also haven't seen the person play, too :/.

Trust me, I've played with him, he's really good. You really seemed to have belittled his skill by saying "Anyone can make themselves look good with a video like that". :S

Also, the sniper line isn't as big of a help as people make it out to be. I actually seem to play better with it disabled.
