There was some unfortunate pyro guarding the point who was dispatched in a similar fashion, to boot.LouieGeetoo said:
Yep. The fun thing about it is that they don't seem to have capped the amount you can rotate the camera vertically during the taunt, so you can make the camera go completely upside-down, or at any other angle you can think of.Won said:
And EuroGAF, it's fun to have you guys around in the evenings, but get some sleep. :lol

Me and Capndrake just played with the worst engies ever. :lol

They built absolutely nothing. I'm sure it was on purpose. We had no teleporters and no sentries in the hall of death. For a moment they set some up, then they got destroyed and they rebuilt them inside the spawn point. Nowhere near the intel.

Capndrake said:I attempted (And succeeded) to get at least one cap by repeatedly sacrificing myself as spy to drag the enemy intel closer and closer but the endless spam by Demos, Soldiers and Pyros destroyed us soon after
Dude, I know. :lol That was awesome as hell too.
I tried hard as I could with the medic, but so many flames, rockets, and grenades were sent flying in our direction. It was a sad day for everyone.
How did your team mess up that bad on goldrush? We were getting slaughtered in the beginning, but you all let us move up. Then the other engie and myself set up camp right in front of your base. :lol

Yeah, yesterday wasn't... a very pleasant day for me.
1) We had approximately 10 GAF members in one of the Sexy servers, but then Blood suddenly rebooted the server and annoying random people quickly repopulated it.
2) As a result: had to switch to the other server where I had an even higher ping. Do not want.
3) After a while, another flock of shitty randomers joined. With juvenile sprays to boot.
4) Didn't take long until Castle came up over there. Gawd I hated that map (should be significantly smaller), almost as much as Cave.
5) What made that map even worse: not one, but TWO Civilian Heavies.
6) Kept being heckled by snipers. All the time. Not cool.
At least I had fun with a Heavy spree (Sciz also participated before he switched to the Medic) on Turbine:
Oh, and another highlight for me yesterday was shoveling Rakka when he was a heavy. Four times.
BUT EVERYONE LEAVES WAY TOO EARLY! :[

How about using the arrow buttons then instead of the wasd keys? I hate using those too and I played the game on the Xbox 360 before I bought it again for the PC, but I'm doing fine with the arrows.celpacius said:
I enjoyed every second of chasing you down. Originally I wanted to shovel you, but I didn't want to take any chance and fuck up.Volcynika said:

Sweet the new server is in Dallas. Hopefully I will have a 5 ping like Bunny.

That was a swift and badass play. I fucking saw you and tried to bring up the talk menu and just when I hit 2 to yell spy, you had backstabbed me and shutdown the sentry in like a split second. There isn't a facepalm big enough to show how I looked when it happened. :/

I will forever associate the beginning of that song with picking a class.Capndrake said:
So I'm good with the pyro, medic and sniper, but suck with every other class
Scout is good for running the suitcases, but I can never kill anyone with it
Soldier is just too slow for me, can't hit everyone with my slow ass rockets
Demo (no comment)
Heavy is ok, but I find I run out of ammo way too quick
Engi I can do ok as just trying to place my shit in the same place I've seen others put them at
Spy seems like everyone knows I'm a spy and kills me before I can backstab anyone

Impressive, I likely added a few deaths to that count.Sciz said:My thanks go out to everyone who helped me get a 48 point, 36 kill spree as heavy on Turbine earlier, whether you were healing me or making futile suicide runs to grab the dropped intel I was guarding. I quite enjoyed it.

Fun stuff. Volcynika was pissing off a lot of people today. :lol :lol All there was "Boom headshot" "Headshot" "Headshot" "shot in whatever". :lol I can hang with him when there aren't two other snipers I have to pay attention :/. That happened on well (IIRC) earlier. Me and him were going back and forth, and like two other ones came out of the blue. I could get through at least 2 before the other (mainly him) hit me in the head. :/ He caught me a bunch today in the later games. Especially when I was an engie. ;_;
Heavy with help.

I took the lead but some explosion launched me in the air and the sentry pushed me up to the skybox. This wasn't even the peak of the flight. :lol
I'd imagine that this kinda sucked for whoever that pyro was (Doytch or Fallengorn?) once he rounded the corner.

I don't know how Xizk didn't dominate me more often throughout all of the games we were in together. I couldn't stand in his sights for a second without getting a bullet through my forehead. And if it wasn't him, it was you.Oldschoolgamer said:
That's a great shot of the fire effect, and a fun pose to go with it. Unfortunately I died about five seconds later.Oldschoolgamer said:
Also, it seems like that spy taunt camera issue I was talking about earlier affects all of the taunts, so take this as your chance to get some off-the-wall screencaps before they fix it.
Java you silly man.
Scout is a hassle class, you gotta get in and out and around enemies before they get a chance to kill you, while shooting them the whole time.
Soldier, aim for surfaces instead of people and lead your shots a bit.
Demo, get an idea of the right range, far enough so that you can detonate stickies before people pass by them, and close enough so that your shots don't fall short. Try to keep enemies at that range, and then start learning which gun is right for each situation until you can start moving in closer.
Heavy is worthless at range with the minigun, figure out your farthest effective range with it (around 20-30 feet) and use shotgun on anyone further that, shooting and closing the gap. You'll be using less ammo if you stick to that and then you just need to learn ammo placement and pick up ammo off dead bodies.
Engi can do much more by simply changing up sentry locations every once and a while. You just have to keep its range and line of sight in mind, and don't just crouch behind it, thats only really needed when there are ubers or giant crowds.
Spy is the only class that I am complete trash in, but there was a how to play spy video on youtube somewhere, and it seemed pretty good.

That was me java. We were storming the sentry and you disappeared on me. I made it like a few feet away before I was viciously gunned down .

Awesome.
Nice games yesterday night, highpoints :
-Überring Capndrake (or was it someone else?) disguised as a friendly Demo near a control point. Didn't even bother fleeing...
-First at points for a good part as a Medic, EL.OH.EL
-I discovered the joys of spawn camping as a Pyro on the last map of goldrush on defence team. The cart didn't move much that round.
-Got the Flare Gun YAY!
-Confidence man is a scary Sniper
-Rakka and Sciz are great Heavys
-Tried to smack talk but the Medic got his mouth shut pretty fast >_<
Seriously I am having a blast with this game and its like the first time I play somewhat regularly an online FPS. SO WORTH IT!
Silly question : How do convert the screenshots I took into jpegs?

There is also a console command that automatically converts them, I forget what it is though.Mistouze said:

Worst part of it all? I repeatedly told everyone that there should be at least two guys at our final capture point at all times and I was about to head back myself, after I was done healing most of our attackers...Capndrake said:
