    the "post your abilities" thread

    i'll start off by posting mine:

    excel:
    1) exorbitant tactic designer (as offense though and need to know map front and back)
    2) excellent support gunner (aug or m4, ur choice)
    3) moderate in grenade tossing
    4) understand the usage of the radar and use it to tell friend or foe
    5) very SWAT-like player most of the time
    6) can act somewhat LIKE a SWAT commander, telling the team when to "move in"

    weakness:
    1) i may not always want to "stay" in one area for so long, since i like to move around a bit
    2) not the most accurate shooter around, but fairly decent on it
    3) may accidentally flash comrades
    4) occassional "cockiness"
    5) NOT your one-man-army
    6) *not THAT important* semi-frequent voice-com stutters.


    NOTE(S): i weight-train with TMPs, but in real matches, i use the m4 silenced.

    alrite guys...that's about it

    post yours

    Re: the "post your abilities" thread

    Excellent thread idea. We've had these in the NS forum. Knowing your own strengths and weaknesses, and that of your opposition, adds a lot to the gameplay.

    strengths:

    - excellent at sharing intel as soon as I get it
    - decent with a deagle
    - getting better with m4 / ak
    - good at interrupting fire when teammates cross in front of me
    - understanding my weaknesses

    weaknesses:

    - aim skill leaves much to be desired
    - bad about getting caught up in a firefight and forgetting to retreat
    - bad about crossing into FF
    - terrible about neglecting the radar
    - too often throw projectiles in combat path of friendlies
    - not patient enough (getting better) about waiting for backup (this is nerves more than impatience)

    Darkilla: In short, NS is pretty much really fast chess. With guns. Apophis: I haven't seen anyone say that SM's are better than non-SMs. Nordbomber: This is THE first server I've seen where either side can comeback from out of seemingly nowhere with the right teamwork. en4rcment: I have NEVER experienced the type of gameplay that I have found here. Nightly I am amazed at the personalities and gaming talent. Zephyr: Apophis is clearly a highly sophisticated self-aware AI construct that runs on a highly modified toaster oven in Wyzcrak's basement.

    Re: the "post your abilities" thread

    Oh dear me....is there enough room to post all my weaknesses?

    Strengths

    - Big on communication (good for recon)
    - Very dangerous with a 228 / M4 combo
    - I can easily outlast the clock when camping hostages
    - Very good at reading radar (see below about not looking at radar)
    - Reasonably careful with the FF

    Weaknesses

    - Not big on others failing to communicate. How hard is is to type a or b in 20 seconds bomber?
    - Very easily frustrated when team mates ignore my info on target locations
    - Not very tolerant of others failing to provide backup when it's called for
    - A tendancy to look at my crosshair instead of the radar
    - Not tolerant of people that don't protect the bomber.

    Re: the "post your abilities" thread

    Well, as we all know.. Mom pwnts the world.



    Strengths:

    -Very Patient
    -Fairly Good Aim
    -Good With a Scope
    -Very Good at Listening to Footsteps and Knowing Locations
    -Leading, but not planning....
    -Recon
    -Dying

    Weaknesses:

    -I get frustrated when people talk too much (sound is my strength, voice-comms make me deaf in-game)
    -I leave the game if I get too frustrated
    -Lolligagging (messing around)
    -I get impatient sometimes when camping due to noise around me

    I'm sure there's more on both sides, but that's all I know of. I can play the game, and help get my team the win. To me, that's all that matters.

    -Mom

    To all but me is the look given but never received. My heart sinks faster and faster every time I look into them, yet I do not understand their controling power on my soul. - W11114m W45h1n670n

    Re: the "post your abilities" thread

    Sounds like fun, feel free to contradict me in Yer Mom's thread:

    Strengths:
    -IF <big IF> I'm on a hotstreak, I can and will take out the other team with a P90.
    -Big on moderate communication, tell me what you see/hear not what you think
    -Working on communicating only what I see and hear, not speculation
    -When I know a map, I can use the radar to understand where my teammates are camping and when certain defenses begin to fall
    -Fair at predicting the opponents movements in a firefight
    -Currently enjoying giving orders because some people like to run helter skelter
    -Can and will camp the clock out in pursuit of completing my objective
    -Not easily fooled by distraction attempts
    -I can get really really lucky

    Weaknesses:
    -A tendency to watch my X hairs and not the radar
    -Still tend to report what I think and not what I know
    -Poor deciphiring of footstep patterns
    -I will hit long streaks of poor playing which tend to last a whole map
    -My sniping is really random as well, I can hs 3 or 4 people one round and not hit a soul the next in the same situation
    -Get wrapped up in a lot of "chatting" in game
    -Need to work on warning teammates sooner before flashing
    -Do not know all of the maps nearly as well as I would like to

    :Edit: Kudos to Nightfire for a great idea.

    Re: the "post your abilities" thread

    Recently I have been having very up and down performances. I either completely dominate, never miss a shot and help captain my team to victory round after round or I finish with a negative number of kills and just make stupid suggestions. Strangely, intoxication level doesn't seam to make a difference either way.

    i believe this would be a good idea so that potential captains for CSS will be able to know what we're all capable of.
