That graph kick ass.

All new players are bad. When I first started playing I would always camp the bridge in inf_Outpost with the Barrett. Best camping spot ever.
Now I kill those campers by proning on that slope and spraying the crap out of 'em. ;Q

That's the best Soldat analisis I've ever seen.

One thing though, there's one more path directly from noob to hacker.

I'm surprised you actually took time to create a chart, but yeah that pretty much sums it up. =)

When I was a newbie I used M79 simply because it was a one-shot kill gun.

Whenever I get hit by a major with a minigun, the next time I spawn, I pick a minigun, and show him how to use it :-*....Does this make me a weapon switcher?

No, a weapon switcher is somebody who takes the gun they just got killed by. What you say is just common sense.

A public server is one that's open to anyone.  A non-public server is generally a clan server, where more skilled people tend to play.  Clan servers are often passworded, so they aren't open to the public.

Only anime shows I've felt any interest in over the years are Pokemon (original TV series) and various hentai.
so clearly jgrp is a goddamn anime connoisseur. his opinion might as well be law here.

Best Admin: jrgp, he's like the forum mom and a pet dog rolled into one.

I don't think so. Most realistic clanservers(and that's nearly all there are) are open to anyone, 'cept for when a CW is going on.

For anything else, just use a proxy server such as www.browseatwork1.com or www.vtunnel.com.
Proxy bypass websites are still filtered by my school =/

Wrong topic bud.

Hmm, I think something's up with the forums. I remember Dascoo posted in the completely wrong topic at one point.

It is on this topic (see page 1) but offtopic.

@`GuNs_ReVoLuTioN - just search on google for proxy servers, your school can't have every single one blocked.

ONTOPIC: People who live around where I do (South East Asia) only can play in public servers; there are no private servers that give us a good ping. Hence there's usually at least a couple skilled players in public servers at whenever time.

Does it count as "weapon switching" if when killed by a camper, you take a barret of your own and dislodge them with an offscreen kill (takes a few calibration-shots)?
May the Lag be with you.

Hmm... that's another thing imo. Of course, you could just rush the camper too :)

Nice graph. But anyway. The more people playing soldat the better in my opinion. And some of us didn't start out as majors. We started out as soldiers and even then we changed our names before we even started! HUZA 1.2!

Bah!  It's more fun to out-camp them, and punish their lack of motion.  I mean seriously, repeatedly killing the same guy in the same spot from accross the map?  There's no better way to say "You suck, camper" than to out-camp them.  "I can camp, but I just choose not to." ;D

As for the graph, I'm not sure I entirely agree with it.  What about people who repent from the dark-side, and also those skilled players who choose to go over to it willingly?  There's a bit more grey-area in there.
