still the noobie

.:<OMNI>:. Here... just wanted to say hi and thanks for playing cause we need more noobs some people take games a little too seriously or some just use them too take out there agression. any a-hole who bitches about his team should do less bitching and more teamwork, i mean who knows, they may be noobs and not completly understand the gametype yet, it took me a while to learn exactly when you need what and where. or maby the enemy is just powning your team and you need to help them here is what i have to say about turrets... although they are a little too accurate they are not completly unfair, U HAVE TOO BE CAREFULL!!! people even bitch about turrets in u2xmp, they say "omni chill with the turrets" and i say "chill with the damned sniping". as long as you are not laying down so many turrets that it is draining all your teams energy than i see no reason to stop. the main thing about turrets is learning good places to stick them so they kill lots for you while your out doing more important things like capping artifacts... if you ever want to play a game or could just use some helpfull in game hints IM me on yahoo, my SN is theomniproject ... hopefully see you again

welcome to the game yes i play for fun too rather than for... er .. whatever it is that the angry people you mentioned play for.
xmp is a great game that stands out for many reasons, one is the friendly team game background... you don't get messages like "good shot" "thanks" and "sorry" in counter strike for example, and the players are generally friendlier. people who bitch-especially about noobs- aren't really common thankfully.
i think the turret comments may have been related to the feeling that utxmp turrets are a bit quieter and nastier than the u2xmp ones that many of us are used to... personally i agree with that, but like a wet football pitch, it's the same for both teams- we just work with it!
btw,what was the training day map you were playing?

Since he posted the same thing as in the U2XMP forum, I'll post what i said again. It's not a %100 relevant to this thread but mostly is..

It's one thing to drop a well placed turret or 2. It's quite another to drop 5,10,15 turrets in the spot. A: you're probably hurting your team for energy. B: You're probably wasting time in game that you could better help out your side doing something else. C: The assumption is that you lay out that a million turrets and therefore can't aim etc.. In the current public build of UTXMP, the turrets really are just cheap, just because they're balanced wrong in more ways than one and generally much more powerful than u2. I won't go significantly into this as it's fixed in the current build in private testing and therefore a dead issue. TBH, I'd leave a server with alot of turret whoring going on in the current public build of UTXMP, just because they are rather frustrating to get rid of and generally make it not fun to play.

wow... intense maby it was him :oints up::

I am still a relatively new player too. And, I agree that one of the nice things about XMP is the quality of the people playing the game. Very seldom do I run into someone taking the game so serious that we can't laugh at someone accidently running one of your own teammates over. The player replies "sorry" as he drives off, leaving your bloody remains behind.

I wish I was a better player so I could make a better contribution to my team's efforts. I am getting a little better with time and with the helpful hints that other players share.

I want to say "thank you" to all the vets out there that make XMP fun even for noobs like me.

Don't mind Covet, once you look beyond the big words mixed with just a hint of convolution, he's really a very sensitive person. He crys a lot I hear...A LOT

i have had some good game with pistos and hope to have some more

oh and covet, i have some noobs for you to come and sh.t on their dreams
see you around...
