Adventures on xboxlive

[Dudebro]

I just wanted to let everyone know that I chopped up MJ in shadowrun. Then I stood near his body and waited for his teammates, they died too.

It was fun either way. MJ did great for just getting the game. Besides that round where he killed two of his teammates with the chaingun(best part is he didn't notice, just walked right over them). :P

Another cool thing is I went 12-1 and got an achievement for "killing 10 enemies without dying". Not as easy as it sounds right MJ?
Yeah I'm bragging, it was an awesome match. Out of all the times I've played this game I've never done that good. I think MJ is good luck(or just a good distraction).

[oasis]

9 of those kills was mj :P

you have been telling me to get shadow run

but I have been consumed with Call of Duty 5
its a compolsion to get my kill to death ratio back to a positive
I just cant stop playing. I have no time to play games yet I find myself playing this game for a few hours every day

my ratio is currently at 0.74 I am down like 400 kills to break even so I have been moving really slow through the levels taking my time and camping alot trying to ensure I end the match with a + spread

but I should get shadowrun and play with you guys

[Kong]

Why not start over? That would make it easier to have a positive ratio.

[Dudebro]

Only noobs worry about ratios.

the achievement is super hard the most ive done is 3 before death

DUDEBRO USED ME AS BAIT AND IT WORKED HE KILLED BASICALLY EVERYONE THAT CAME NEAR ME!!!!!

but it was great fun and im currently wrapping presents but afterward i hope to play it with him

[Dudebro]

I think I overloaded my xbox with awesomeness last night. After MJ logged out my headset died. It was giving everyone feedback for like a half hour before I noticed. I probably got muted by a lot of people. :'(

To be clear btw, I only played against MJ for like one match. I got my killing spree while on his team(that's why I think he's good luck).

[mj23]

broke mic?

that sucks

and i would have been on earlier but my dog ate a bunch of chocolate cookies and we just got back from him havin his stomach pumped and they made him eat charcoal

so now my white dog has a black goatee and yesterday my nephew poured strawberry milk on my dogs head so needless to say tomorrow he is gettin a bath

[Dudebro]

Yeah might be a few days until I get a new mic. >:(

Sounds like some of your posts on RU. :P

Dont know how besides making a new gamer tag

but I like my gamer tag so I cant do that


Only noobs worry about ratios.





I am not a Noob and I really dont care that its at .76 and I am down by 700 kills

I would just like to see it at 1.00 as a goal of mine

I don't even know how to check the ratio. Is it global or just for Call of Duty?

Overloaded with awesomeness?

[oasis]

its basically in game stats for each game across a global leaderboard

in COD WaW you go into the barracks and click leaderboard>kills and it will say you have died X amount of times and you have killed X amount of times giving you a ratio mine is roughly for every kill I get I die 1.3 times

an even ratio would be for every kill you get you also Die a 1:1 ratio or 1.0

I am down about 700 kills to get back to 1:1

but its going up

I dont know if they do it the same in other FPS but I know Halo also keeps track and you can find that on bungie.net where I am also down about 200 kills

halo stats
Ranked matches
Kills = 2720
deaths = 2927
Games = 271
ratio = 0.93
social
kills = 2500
deaths = 2541
games = 227
ratio = 0.98

so I am doing better in halo then I thought

[Dudebro]

It doesn't really matter Oasis. If you're worried about Trueskill rating then don't bother. I hear it's a joke anyways. I get in games with really good players and really bad players. Unless mines in the middle I think the system doesn't work.
My rating might be ruined from shadowrun, I spend more time helping my team than killing. I usually have like 3 kills and 10 raises. I don't keep track of deaths unless I do really good(like 12-0).

[oasis]

I know that it does not matter but its a personal goal something to work towards

[Dudebro]

That's cool then. As long as you don't think it matters overall. A good player is good when it counts, not on a stat sheet.

Ranked, 27kills 45deaths = .60 ratio
Social, 191kills 157deaths = 1.22 ratio

My social ratio is higher than you! :P I haven't played Halo much on this account.

[mj23]

so im not very good at shadowrun but its fun :)

[Dudebro]

If you're having trouble killing people try Smartlink. It helps you aim(small auto targeting) and it won't let you hurt your team with stray bullets. Also every gun gets a level of zoom while it's equipt. Snipers get 2-3(I forget, never use it), rifle gets 2 levels of it. Even guns that don't have zoom get one, like shotgun and smg.
The only drawback is the laser pointer coming out of your face. If you turn it off you still get the zoom but not target assistance. Also the mana penalty.

If you have any questions just ask, my mic being broken means I can't help you in real time. I'm buying a 20$ headset in the next couple days.

One word of advice. On that level PowerStation, if you start as the Lineage(tribal looking) you need to get inside the station asap. The best place is the basement. Outside is full of sniping and people attacking from the highground.

thanks and you should get on because im required to be awake all night

[oasis]

just an update if anyone plays call of duty world at war I am going to be making a web page (maybe)
but anyways there is not alot of help on the internet so I am taking the maps and I am editing them to show where the windows are and where the key camping points are ect

I am even going to put on the maps my recomendations of where to put your bettys and where you should camp ect ect mainly a map level guide
depending on how much time I have I want to make a web page where you can click on a building and you will get a new .jpg of that zoomed in on that building and it will show you the key locations of that building is and where its weak spots are
for example if you were looking out a door it would show you that you are able to be spoted from behind

[Dudebro]

Or they could just play the maps and learn the spots themselves! :P

[mj23]

well last night truly ticked me off

last night me and dudebro are playing shadowrun and this guy named "minion preacher" came on and got all up in my face for making some bad moves in the game. so the first game all 4 players on each team were fighting in the trench except me, i was trying to find a way down there,honestly well he died and when you die you can watch your teammates and he saw me and when he saw me

him- "Big D! get down in the trench and fight dont stand on the roof, FIGHT!"
me- "im trying to get down there i cant find it"
him after i die- "BIG D ARE YOU F***ING SERIOUS YOU DIDNT PULL THE TRIGGER ONCE!!!"
me- "are you serious its a game calm down"
him "NO BECAUSE ITS A**HOLES LIKE YOU WHO MAKE THIS GAME NO FUN YOU STOOD THERE WITH A SHOTGUN AND DIDNT SHOOT ONCE"
me- "I DIDNT SEE ANYONE"
him- "SURE, YOU WERE JUST ON THE ROOF SITTIN THERE JERKIN OFF YOU DIDNT MOVE!"

*next game we start he immediately kills me(we are on same teams)*

me- "ARE YOU SERIOUS"
him- YEAH IM F***ING SERIOUS YOU DIDNT PULL THE TRIGGER ONCE YOU SHOULDNT BE ALIVE"
ME- "CALM DOWN"
him "NO ITS GUYS LIKE YOU WHO MAKE THIS GAME NO FUN!!"


and that kept goin for a while also dudebro kept telling him to lay off because im new but the guy kept going and this is why i never have game chat turned on because you get stuff like this

[Kong]

him "NO ITS GUYS LIKE YOU WHO MAKE THIS GAME NO FUN!!"

You should have said, "You know, this was a lot more fun before I met you."

[sabby]

You have GOT to be kidding me. Seriously, over a game? Well, there's another reason why an XBox won't make an appearance in my house.

"MP" needs to take a serious look in the mirror, but that may involve going upstairs out of his mom's basement. He is the true epitome of his statement - "It's guys like HIM that make games no fun" :P

[Dudebro]

Yeah MP was one of those people. He had a problem with our whole team(besides me). He didn't care that MJ was new, he was just upset because he kept dieing. He would run out and fight a couple people at a time, by himself, and die. I'd go and try to back him up and he'd already be dead.
The part with MJ was totally BS. He started bitching as soon as he died. Even if MJ headed towards him sooner he'd never be able to save him. The guy was a moron.

Also I'm not sure if MJ noticed but I did get MP to stop attacking him. A started one round by charging at MP and swinging my Katana at his back. He stopped and looked at me, I stood in his face for half a minute to let him know I meant it. After that he focused on the other guy on our team.

The funny part is MP had like 4 kills. The other guy he was talking trash to(every 5 seconds) got like 20 kills and barely died. Noob.

@sabby, don't let this change your mind about a 360. You're always going to have morons online. You can just mute them and instantly you never hear them again. It's the same on Ps3. Wii doesn't have this problem but it's online is a joke.

[oasis]

yeah I also can not really what games must have been like before online multiplayer for FPS or the like type games or even sports games

you occasionally get people who troll the online games just like in forums there is no stopping it I just mute them and continue playing

but playing online is so much fun because its always a different game because people play differently than the computer

[mj23]

Well, there's another reason why an XBox won't make an appearance in my house.




it would be awesome if you did and me and dudebro always do private chat so we dont have to hear other players crap

[Dudebro]

Actually I normally use just game chat. I like hearing what people are saying. Sometimes you'll hear a problem starting and have time to plan. Like if someones pissed off in a FPS they'll most likely try to ruin everyones fun. I like to be ready to teamkill them first.
Shadowrun is fun because after you kill one of those people you can teabag thier body as you destroy it. That usually pisses them off enough to leave. If not just do it again until they get the message.


yeah I also can not really what games must have been like before online multiplayer for FPS or the like type games or even sports games

This confused me. Are you saying you're not sure what these games were like before online play? If so then it wasn't bad. The main difference to me is the human interaction. Like you said it's always different with people. Game AI usually becomes predictable. Also a human won't get stuck against a low wall while you blast them or other stupid issues.

[franz_sanchez]

All I had to do was play with Minion Preacher while playing Shadowrun. When he was on opposing team he would TK. When he was on my team same thing happened. All you have to do to Minion Preacher is shoot him once and then he betrays you. Within 4 or 5 rounds he puts a call vote against me and complains that I wasn't kicked. Just because I shot him once with a pistol he betrays 4 or 5 rounds before putting a call vote against me. I had no way to get kills and then he is the guy with 10 kills and -2000 dollars.

I got away from him and eventually got 2 kills. Then there were 2 rounds in a row where the same person on our team was left. He was saying I had gotten 2 kills but this other dude with sniper hadn't got any. He was actually complementing me but getting pissed at the other player on our team. Next game I shot him again and eventually I lost connection to server. I never seen a person act this way. I have had people TK me before as some people do TK people in Shadowrun. Nothing like this. I think you have to learn to play with newbs and respect your teammates. Not get pissed off cause they don't know how to play.

[Dudebro]

franz_sanchez sorry to hear you had to deal with this moron. Either he's really bored or he's bipolar.
You're welcome to join us if you want. MJ23 and I play together when we can and it's usually awesome.

[Blue Shoe 2]

wait, can i post one of my live storys?

if so then i had this experience with shadowrun back when i had a free trial. my character dissapered from the map and out of nowhere someone else was controlling my character and i couldn't do anything. i recieved a complaint and i three day ban for what he said was "HAXORING".

[Dudebro]

Dead Tears it sounds like you were killed and your camera went to a teammate(it does ghost cam when your dead). I suspect you hit a lag spike, someone killed you and the camera switched too fast to notice.

I've never heard of anyone being suspended for shadowrun. Maybe it was lagging on your end and they saw it as malicious. I know some people will lag games out on purpose to be jerks.

So when you gonna play shadowrun with us?

no, i mean my character dissarpered off the map and into the billboard.and another guy who was a dwarf nearby suddenly controlled me and he started yelling at me for "haxorzing him".

it was a XBL ban,

and i cant buy a new month of live for a while.

it also didn't register it as a kill.

last but not least, he started yelling that i use AIMBOTS and the such and started dissing everyones mothers.

[Dudebro]

When you say you played on a free trial do you mean the demo or your type of membership to Xboxlive? I never played the shadowrun demo online, I'm not sure if it's glitchy.
I've been playing it off and on since it came out and I've never heard of what happened to you. Maybe someone was hacking it through Vista since PCs are easier to alter stuff. I rarely hear of people modding thier xboxs and when I do its usually about them getting banned.
