Title: RS players not backing up their game Post by: Saberian 3000 on June 29, 2003, 07:11:35 pm Hmm, I have heard all season about how all these RS players love RS soo much better then Ghr, but when it comes down to it thye wont even finish their finals games. It's almost unreal that this is happening because from all those people that were having wars with the ghost recon players telling us how much they love their game, adn how much better it is then Ghost recon, yet when it comes to standing up for their game and playing each-other, it turns into a non-existent problem. Hmm, plus I love hearing about all those RS clans out there saying they wouxld cb at any time, then all of the sudden the season is over and they have almost no games played.
Well, it seems that we have some hippocrites here when it comes to RS because I was hearikng throughout the season how RS was all that, yet only like 2 clans are really stepping up to the plate. Where did all the other trash talkers go? Very odd. Title: Re:RS players not backing up their game Post by: BTs_STuRM on June 29, 2003, 07:42:06 pm My theory is that all those OS9ers are too busy trash-talking (in an attempt to convince themselves that OS9 isn't dead) to start up their arcane operating system and actually play t he game they claim is so 1337. It's no fun riding their dead horse so they are beating it to death with their inanities. Put your guns where your mouths are and pull the trigger--you bore me with your anti-GhR rants.

(ps.. I wish someone would port RS for OSX though... Mauti fancy another project? ;0) ) Title: Re:RS players not backing up their game Post by: (SEALs) one on June 29, 2003, 09:12:30 pm Why do you guys care? Just stay on your side of the line and we will stay on ours.
Title: Re:RS players not backing up their game Post by: c| Dr. NO on June 30, 2003, 02:04:04 am Bha One, i agree with Sab, wtf, why don't you guys play rs at all. Hell i'll boot to 9 and play for the doctors again if need be.
Title: Re:RS players not backing up their game Post by: 0 Kilz:M: on June 30, 2003, 03:44:29 am I think the main problem is that there is only a handful of RS players. I get sick of playing the same ppl day after day. The cb's are boring as hell cuz it's usually 2v2. TF6 has and always will cb anyone anytime if time permits, and as long as they are not ip joining from a pc. Our finals first round cb is vs a euro clan with 2 members...lmao. I rarely if ever see them at all. IMHO RS will be almost non-existent after this season. TF6 tried to keep it alive but only managed 17 cb's, still more than double any other clan out there. Also ppl always try to hijack the ladder with shifty and shady moves, legal they may be, but completely dishonorable. I sincerely hope RvS brings us back together..I miss playing with alot of the guys who moved to GhR. If my computer would have run GhR half way decent, I too would have most likely made the move.
But yes Sab, I agree with you that all these ppl wine and complain and yet are never willing to put their money where their mouth is. They are all too busy talking trash in the chat or playing Blue on Storage...gets wayyy old. kilzo Title: Re:RS players not backing up their game Post by: Mr. Lothario on June 30, 2003, 07:53:21 am Unfortunately, the community that RS had is totally dead. It was fostered because of the way RS was structured: short games with a relatively long span of time between rounds to chat and joke, as well as the ability to chat with other dead people. GhR is exactly the opposite: long games with a relatively short span of time between rounds, and no real corpse chatting because of respawns (which keep most people playing until the round ends). GhR's structure is not conducive to chatting and getting to know your teammates and opponents.
RvS will not improve the situation from what I have seen. I have only played RvS very, very briefly, but when I was playing it, it struck me the way the rounds were set up: mere seconds after a round ends, the next one has begun automatically. For all I know, that could be changeable, and I hope it is. If it is not, however, the community will never revive, because there will never again be a chance to get to know the other players like there was in RS. Title: Re:RS players not backing up their game Post by: *DAMN Hazard on June 30, 2003, 08:05:05 am GhR rooted out the weak. Most people I have seen that play GhR were never good at RS or never played it at all. Of course their are exceptions and you know who you are.
Title: Re:RS players not backing up their game Post by: Killa_Absalon on June 30, 2003, 03:13:59 pm Our finals first round cb is vs a euro clan with 2 members...lmao. I rarely if ever see them at all. So, u think thats funny? Ok, first, we have got 3 members :o and i think that having 3 very skilled players is pretty better than having 5-6 mid-skilled players (like u do). Isnt that true? Well, at the moment im on GR and in about 1 hour we are ready to cb. so come online! Title: Re:RS players not backing up their game Post by: Mr.Mellow on June 30, 2003, 04:45:45 pm Well, when GhR first came out, I agree with what Lothario said. But now, the GhR community is getting pretty close-knit, minus a dozen or so newbies. I only play on servers with no respawns, so I get plenty of time to talk to people. Also, on the BTs servers, there's usually a lot of chatting and joking around. It's definately not as fun as the RS community, but that's okay. I would still be playing RS, but I got an Airport-type thing a month ago, and have no clue how to set it up on OS9...I'll get around to it eventually.
Title: Re:RS players not backing up their game Post by: Psyks on June 30, 2003, 04:48:25 pm Also not to many people play rs because all the ppl that used to play just stopped. People started becoming inactive and there weren't very many ppl to cb so it slowed down. Plus not a lot of people like to cb anymore. Just playing for fun cuz its so inactive.
Title: Re:RS players not backing up their game Post by: BTs_eight on June 30, 2003, 05:30:08 pm HELLO, NETFONE PEOPLE!
Heh i don't know much about the RS community and the chatting.. I do know is that RS is pretty much DEAD... And i don't have a problem with rubbing it into each and everyone of you RS asses... (You know who you are) I think the community revolves around Gameranger and meeting people on GR.... and then Netfoning with others... I NF with c|, |n|, and a few other clan members... needless to say... MORE FUN! More chatting less typing more killing! GR would be a nicer place if alot of you old school RS guys werent such dicks... Yeah so what if i have a 100k GR account... I am a noob to GR... So? I at least have fun everyday playing on the many GhR servers... unlike you bitter RS players who just need to sit around GR asking people to host a RS game... Bah pathetic.... Yeah ghr has its fighting... But all in all.. It's just season arguements... I dislike what alot of you guys say... and believe me i know alot of u hate my ass... but after every season we all make up and play some good fun games on public servers... I love you MoD! Title: Re:RS players not backing up their game Post by: l ! l Dutchman on June 30, 2003, 07:32:34 pm Wow, a lot of disrespect for Rogue Spear!
There wouldn't even be Ghost Recon without Rogue Spear or RainbowSix. Just keep that in mind. Besides Eight....when Raven Shield comes out..... a lot of RS people will kick your butt. It requires more personal skill to be a good player in RS or RvS than Ghost Recon. Believe me.....I played them all. Dutchman / ViRuS BTW: the sensor jammers are back in Raven Shield.....Bye bye campers! Woohoo! Title: Re:RS players not backing up their game Post by: Killa_Absalon on June 30, 2003, 08:31:26 pm BTW: the sensor jammers are back in Raven Shields.....Bye bye campers! Woohoo! Woot Title: Re:RS players not backing up their game Post by: BTs_eight on June 30, 2003, 09:43:13 pm Sorry no disrespect to the RS Game..
A big F YOU to those assholes in RS who thnk they are GODS because they have a lower GR account number and act like complete dicks about their outdated game... Yeah i am a noob, still own your ass... wha wha! ;P Title: Re:RS players not backing up their game Post by: 0 Kilz:M: on July 01, 2003, 02:13:25 am Typical abs...5-6 mid skilled players is nothing wrong with that. last I saw you had yourself and Rubberduck...highly skilled I think not, just euro lag good.
I found it funny that our first round was vs a euro clan and that we are never on at the same time. You only had 2 members during the regular season, so if you picked up a third just for finals let me know, I too will get some ringer to come in and clean house, believe me I can. I hope I am in that cb with you to shut your pie hole...!!!!! Title: Re:RS players not backing up their game Post by: *NADS Capt. Anarchy on July 01, 2003, 02:25:39 am Aww fellas.. can't we all just get along? We're all here to play Tom Clancy games. Just play it and get on with your life.
Title: Re:RS players not backing up their game Post by: 7.Dr.Cheap Shot on July 01, 2003, 02:56:57 am LMAO!!! First time to this forum, so, I would like to say RS is the shiznay! Plus I heard Americas Army might be coming to Mac, schwing....
Title: Re:RS players not backing up their game Post by: +MOD+ Sivak on July 01, 2003, 03:39:32 pm Well America'a Army is comming to Mac. This will probably be a big turn around for Game Ranger. Here is the info
read on http://macgamer.com/news/item.php?id=6929 And about RS, never played, so I cant really comment about it. But just because a game is outdated doesnt mean its not good anymore. ;) Title: Re:RS players not backing up their game Post by: Saberian 3000 on July 05, 2003, 08:57:22 am aahh, yes! Finally! I ahve been waiting for america's ARMY to come out for the Mac. it looks like a sweet shooter.
I was not trying to stuffit to the RS palyers when I made this, but I was more of making a point. I remember earlier in the season the RS only players were bashing the Ghost recon players for stnding up for their game. They were talking stuff like how RS would never die, and that Ghost recon actually has no skill involved which is total bullshit. i think if RS players were to actually say that to a hardcore Ghor player they would probably get slapped in the face. Dont get me wrong, I love RS, but since they are not going to come out for a carbon for it I think we all knew that RS was destined for the dungheap in the end. Who knows, maybe Ghr will go down the smae road, but the one thing with Ghr is that it has a carbon for it unlike RS. Basically it just blew me away that almost all the RS teams didnt play worth shit in this last season and were all talking the shit. I do exclude DR. and a few others cause they have at least played their finals games. Forgive me if you're clan isnt mentioned. But I just believe that if these select RS only players are gonna talk the talk, then they shoudl walk the walk as well. =) Just remember RS only shit talkers, you dont have to lie to kick it, just be real =) |
