[:-censored], wtf is wrong with everybody.. wtf happend ?
it seems all the forum "1337 pwnz3rs" turned into faggot whiners.
i didnt played in a single match this week, that whining wasnt involved.
whining isnt a problem, i shouldn't give a [:-censored] about it..
but this case is just too much, its like playing against a 7 year old kid soccer and having to play weaker for his poor losing face.

its getting unbelievble now. countless times people have said "get a real gun.." "get some skill" "man come on, change that gun"
its not fun to play like that, back then it was killing and dying and whatever, yet fun was involved.
now its just killing WHINING dying WHINING killing WHINING winning\losing WHINING ... etc.

its not fun, and it ruins the game for the other people.

fresh example to show you it dont realy have something to do with the "gun balance problems"

i was playing with m79, even added |with m79
to my nickname.. some dude said "wow cant you use something else then m79 ?" so i said "yea i can use barret :p"
then another guy started "dont.."

.................

WTF IS YOUR PROBLEM I DONT NEED YOUR F*CKING PREMITION OF WHAT GUN TO CHOOSE.

and when it comes to clanmatches its the same thing only 50 times bigger..

some question: (something that i never asked and i have to ask)

1. what's 1337?
2. what's whining?

btw,what i understand is this:

Big steps big man, barret to m79. No wonder you stand so proud. Bet you just get right in their face and 'bam'... Anyhow, maybe they'd stop whining if you stopped sampling over-efficient means to playing a game. Come down to their level where the challenge is at and maybe you'd understand.

Incidently, how comes you're backing out from the duel you challenged Icarius to by the way? The one where he wields a barret, and you don't, just to show him that the weapons are indeed balanced. "ISP problems" I heard...well some people would even watch the Sharon Ozbourne Show just for a 166 ping on DNAGames.

The reason they are whining is because you are ruining the game for them when you use lame weapons. But oh, how dare the complain about it. Voicing your opinion just makes you a whiner these days, it seems.

That's because the minigun, and all the other guns, aren't overpowered pieces of crap. Didn't you stop to think about that? Plus, wtf are you talking about, dying tons to noobs with miniguns? I've died a grand total of - get this - 37 times to miniguns. Wow, that's something to complain about. By comparison, I've died 651 times to the over-used Barret. Add that to M79 deaths and that's 1050 deaths from one-hit-killers. Compare this to: 1202 deaths from all other primary weapons combined. Don't you think this is a little odd? Don't you think this is very telling on the state of Soldat?

By the way, nice method of dodging the subject of how you whine about whiners, hypocrite. Before you call me an idiot, buy a mirror, why don't you? Many of us are still eager to see that "Barret Vs Anything" duel. ;)

I agree with SK another time. The barret is a weapon like others, when is used without camping or prone. So, if he likes barret and don't use n00b attitudes, he's free to use it.

The minigun is IMHO quite a fun weapon, and due to its long reloading, all you have to do is take cover until they run out (very soon) and then pop out and do what ever you please. It's hard and takes a strategic mind to actually pwn with the minigun because if you just charge with it you'll die very fast.

Nice job calling me a "newbie." Shows precisely how mature you are. Sure, I'll take you up on that duel, for the hell of it. As far as I'm concerned, this thread is otherwise over. You didn't propose anything to actually argue over in your first post - you just complained about something. So what are we supposed to be discussing? The Barret is overused; you can hardly argue with that. It's also overpowered; most people agree with that too. That's the reason people "whine" about it.

barret vs anything, anything won, and when it comes to using automated weapons.. i completley suck at it

Overused,yes. Overpowered only if it's used by a camper. People just have to whine with themself...i'm not a barretter becouse it's not funny for me. But if someone kill me without camp i shut up, that's just a nice shot.

Well. There is winning, wich is good, then there is winning with style, wich is great. Get better with, like, two other weapons and switch to them when they complain about Barret or M79 abuse, and they won't be able to tell you to change. What about that heh?

It's not unbalanced weapons that ruins the fun, it's unbalanced players.

I occasionaly use my custom taunts (barretard, Minigun n00b) when things get out of hand.

I'll tell you all a story of a ctf match i once played. Twas mightily unfair, because all the veterans were on one side. When 4 of them started camping by thier flag with a barret, i knew it was time to request that they quit it. alas, they retaliated with petty "stfu" and "quit if you don't like it".

In other words, they knew they were being n00bs, they just didn't give a damn. I eventually left vowing never to return to that fateful server. :P

@ all you veterans and long time players out there: I have no problem with barrets from time to time, but when you go through 2 whole matches without changing guns, something's definitely wrong with you. There's almost no skill involved with setting the aimer on a guy and clicking.

But the most ironic thing of all is that the team i played on the fateful server won 10/0, and beleived it was done using skill.

February 19, 2004, 8:41 pm
Hmm, I thought I might get some neutrality into this thread so here.

Veterans or not, players can choose whatever weapon they wish to chose, play however they wish to play, and say whatever they wish to say, regardless of the consequences, in a given game.

Now you guys can go back and forth about how to describe a veteran player, or a skilled player, or a n00b, but this is a matter of opinions; You cant dictate for everyone how to think, unless you have some wierd psychic abilities, which is unlikely.

Veterans are normally called so because they can proove their worth in a game. Be it only with 1 weapon or not, they do what they do. How *you* percieve that is your own matter, though, and, for example, you may judge a player to be a veteran because he wins almost every game he plays, while others judge him a rookie for only doing it with 1 weapon (barret, as it shows in this thread, although that may vary).

So what I'm saying is, you can define what a good player is by your own way, others may agree or disagree to their own liking, but this shouldnt be a matter of discussion, as it is based on personal opinions.

To me, a veteran is a player that can handle all weapons, in any team, in any situation, being versatile is a very important thing, and a veteran should have that. I personally dont value any braggers who say they are the best, even though they might be with 1 weapon, and cant use any other weapon but that given 1. Same thing for other limitations. But like I said, thats just how I see it.

dude is there a diffrence if you just stand there and shoot, between just sitting (crouching) and shoot ?
crouching takes EVEN LESS skill because you get to have the scope.
both (standing still or crouching) while shooting [aka camping] takes little to no skill, and that is just too easy.
i mean i camped a whole match with 2 deaths and 45 kills or something just from camping on the top of the hill on ctf_viet, and took assload of cussing and swearing (i used a fake name just to camp ;P)
besides, camping is just lame and has no thrill for both sides (camper and enemy attacker...err victim), while soldat supposed to be a 'fast paced action game'

if barret would be made into a camping weaopn what will we get ?
a happy automatic guy that just got his least favourite weapon out of the way, running around shooting everywhere and gets shot down by a camper's bullet in no-time.
same thing over and over, multipile trouble if you got 2 campers, quad trouble if you got campers on each team.

The Barret is just not a fun weapon for the person on the other end of its barrel. Finding yourself suddenly splattered across the ground, from one lazy click of the mouse, is fscking annoying as hell. As soon as you come within LOS of the barreter, you have to worry about being instantly killed. It is not fun. In the end I don't give on fsck about how "balanced" the Barret is, or how people have every right to use it, what I care about is having fun in a game I like to play. And guess what? The barret often eliminates that. That's the bottom line for me.

What pisses me off even more is that many barreters know that they're ruining someone else's fun, and they don't care. They continue using the Barret, laughing in the faces of others, and fooling themselves into thinking they're superb players. But you know what these people really are? They're selfish little assholes. All they care about is making that easy kill and thinking they rock. Meanwhile, they're making their victim bored, helpless, and angry.

Soldat is about having fun people. If you have fun using the Barret, then great; but realize that at the cost of your own enjoyment, you're potentially ruining the game in a selfish manner for someone else. Disgusting.

So SK, you wonder why people can't "just play the game?" That's why.

Well, i got into this argument a litttel late seeing as how i did a little prank, but lets see what i can say, ok first of all the player make the weapon the weapon does not make the player, and while i was playing at Thorin i used ak and law, and after a bout a few 15 -30 min matches i must say i was pretty good, and it took me teh same amount of time to learn the barret, and the m79 besides some payers just are naturally drawn to some weapons because it "fits them" and besides i see so many people use autos that i am suprised there is no "Nerf the ak" thread, anyway i guess everything i would say would go back to my first point , the player makes the weapon the weapon does not make the player, i have used every single weapon on soldat, each has its advantages and disavantages, what most peoiple in this thread is focus soo much on the advantages of the other gun and the disadvantages of their gun they forget to have fun, and part of teh fun its blasting the guy that is getting on your nerves to little pieces

ok, I have changed my mind a bit.. I still hate Barret, in my eyes it's unbalanced as hell, but now in 1on1 matches, if my enemy uses the Barret, I use it as well. And as I saw today it seems to work, even if I train with barret just since 2 days. That proves to me that the barret is really just too easy to learn. And on public CTF servers I just use barret if there are 2+ Barreters at the enemies team and not too many barreters in my team, and if anyone complains, I just change the weapon..
But I have to say matches with Barret are great fun, but just if you and your enemy use barret - I still hate matches Barret vs. Non-Barret.

I can use all the weapons except the M79 well. I use the player's weapon's weakness to my advantage. Minigun, barret and Law all have slow reload. Dodge the first shot or round and you'll be fine, charge up with almost any gun blaring or a knife. Or just dodge and shoot another slow reload gun.

its not fun to play like that, back then it was killing and dying and whatever, yet fun was involved.
now its just killing WHINING dying WHINING killing WHINING winning\losing WHINING ... etc.

its not fun, and it ruins the game for the other people.

fresh example to show you it dont realy have something to do with the "gun balance problems"

i was playing with m79, even added |with m79
to my nickname.. some dude said "wow cant you use something else then m79 ?" so i said "yea i can use barret :p"
then another guy started "dont.."

.................

WTF IS YOUR PROBLEM I DONT NEED YOUR F*CKING PREMITION OF WHAT GUN TO CHOOSE.

and when it comes to clanmatches its the same thing only 50 times bigger..
Couldnt accually have said it better...!!

Because i often and actually very often also whine about barrets , i'd wish to involve myself with this one :)

Barret often works on my nerves too , Because in less then a second u'r already missing a head .Iv'e trained and played with a barret to , altough I need a long warm-up before it goes well (but that's offtopic) . If you don't have a one shot death weapon at hand while ur fighting a barretard with a good aim ( wich isn't that hard with a barret) , ur just done for . No matter how good ur aim is or ur reactions , The time you have to kill him ain't enough to fire the necesary shots . It's just frustrating to be defenceless against it . People are just forced to use the barret to , many clanwars these days are completly barret ,because it's just the best gun around except when there are to many playes , but in clanwars that rarely the situation. Further Soldat is very good it's just the barret that works on many peoples nerves . Btw if you hear so many people whining , and so many people using it : doesn't that mean anything to you?

Well , ain't a game supposed to be fun for everyone?

OR you get barret and i get ak.

Oh i'd really want to try that , but i will record it.

OK, just for the record. A barreter ruins some people's fun. Then people whine and argument that barreters are selfish, still accepting that for some people, the barret IS fun. Excuse me if I misunderstand it, but if you whine and complain about the barret, demanding to change weapons, then you want to spoil the fun for the barreter. And then YOU are being selfish. I'm not accusing anybody, but still... isn't that a little tiny bit hypocritical? (and camping IS fun, if you die, your problem. I've seen EXCELLENT players that DESERVE to be called VETERANS that dodge bullets and I didn't even see them moving, so explain to me, are they hackers that dodge bullets, or is it that the barret isn't as godlike as you think it is). let me just make a little graphic about the people who whine about barrets:

EDIT: OK the graphic accidentally [:-censored]ed up, so anyways,what my point was is: PEOPLE CAN DODGE BARRET BULLETS

And if it as easy as you say to aim with a Barret, then I should have hit him. Yet, I didn't. AMEN to what brother SK said. Why people just doesn't play the game? As you see, there is NO reason to whine about anything.

No, what I say is that if you are such an asshole to drive yourself to certain death don't blame into the others. "WHINE WHINE WHINE BARRET IS GOD INCARNATED WHINE WHINE WHINE". That's all I'm hearing. You get killed by a barret, that takes no skill? Of coooourse it doesn't. You can look all across the map, bullets go trough walls and they are also homing. And it has an instant hit, so you just point and click, and voilá, Multi Kill. If this is your case, then reconsider who's the noob here. The guy that calculates where you are, where he should shoot (cause barret has also an arch of trajectory, you know), must stay still for 4 seconds (if prone, he can't move), hides so well you cant see him, OR the guy that is jumping across the hills like "Heidi" waiting to be shot. I lose all respect for someone that keeps whining just because he can't avoid being killed. You are damn exagerating. "The barretard kills me everytime without me knowing it, but HE is the noob. It is just impossible to dodge a barret bullet, it could kill God. Barret is lame couse I am killed ALWAYS." Have you even tried fighting back? For all I read here, you just let yourself die, like if you wanted to have an argument against the barret. For crying out loud, this thread started about SuperKill complaining about whiners (and for all you azzes that believe that a whine and a complaint are the same, know that you are wrong. A whine is a unpleasant, annoying request about something quite often very subjective, while a complaint is a formal way to express about something that makes most people uncomfortable, and acknowledgly wrong by those who are with him. The difference, if you may, is in the way you express it. Sometimes, a "whine" could perfectly be a "Complaint" if it didn't include some serious bitching) It didn't even include the barret, SK said he was with M79 (which, according to most, requires skill unlike the barret). Play the game, you don't like it don't play it. If someone spoils your fun, then make your own fun. [:-censored] people, make a server with "No Barret" just for you and you're ready to have your fun. Let the others have theirs.

blah blah blahWow that was a lot of difficult-to-read drivel. I have three comments:
1. It is virtually impossible to "dodge" a barret bullet. You have to try to bait the barreter into missing. Once he shoots, if you're in the path of the bullet, you're dead.
2. You sound like the typical barret-user that hasn't graduated to trying other weapons yet.
3. You're doing a lot more whining than anybody else (in fact that's all your post was), yet you complain about everybody else? Funny stuff.

Exactly Mielos, I had fought against a team called FO and they were blatantly losing, I dueled with the leader and hewas killing me twice I killed him. The only thing he was doing was running away from me so he could barret me with me being unable to fire him.

Kevith:
1- I am not a natural english speaker, so if my english is hard to read for you, that should tell you something.
2- You say it is virtually impossible. Now tell me why.
3-FYI, I have my own way to play, which consists of changing weapons every time I die. So yout theory of me being a frustrated barret user should stay in your head, since I believe you never saw me playing. I play with any weapon as much as I play with the barret.
4- Maybe I need a definition of whining. If for you, everything someone posts against your idea is whining, then allow me to tell you that I will never reply to you. Please then don't read my posts, then.
5-@ Mielos: I read everything in this thread. And trust me, I've been thinking this since I registered in the forum and saw like 30 guys crying because they thought the barret was unfair. I'm not saying bull[:-censored], I have really gave a thought on this. I also DO want the barret to be nerfed. It gets to my nerves to get killed in 1 shot because someone runs around with it. I reckon the barret is overpowered. But do you see me arguing with people because it happens to me? As far as I'm aware of, you already have a solution, that is, the weapon modification program that will be coming out. And people still make threads like this, and they turn the twist of any other threads like this. SK talked about how someone "whined" for using the M79. Someone appeared and said "Barret is overpowered, it's lame, it's noobish, it takes no skill" and every other crap people ALWAYS bring up in these threads. I never said it was hard, or difficult to use the barret. I never did. Still, you keep telling me in quite an aggressive way that I must think before I speak. You know what? I'm tired of typing just to answer this things. I'm tired of you people who are so narrow-minded that can't accept that you effectively AVOID being killed by a barret. If you can't, well, then you are just not as good as you thought you were. You have mastered every other weapon? Fine. Now master the art of avoiding barret users. Even YOU said it, you CAN lure the sniper to miss. And frankly, anyone who said: "if you can't kill someone in 4 secs, then you deserve to die" is damn right. Noobface's logic about the Ruger may be right, but apart from the ruger, there are 9 more weapons (including the barret) with 4 secondary weaps.
As for me, I won't take any of your precious bitching time with my "hard-to-read" english.

P.S.: Just because you meet an @$$hole of a barret user, don't curse an entire sector of the Soldat Community. I am really tired of having to read pages and pages of people wishing damnation to all who uses barret. Including this one. Is it maybe possible to have 1 weapons or such thread without someone saying (or implying) to nerf or remove the barret? Is it that much to ask?

Well , i'm not complaining about m79 that much ( except it should also damage urself some more when fired from to close but eh that's not the topic) , Tough it somethimes irritates me to be instantly killed , But atleast fighting against a m79'er ain't so chanceless it ain't that easy weapon.

well, you could change directions if far enough away. like fly like you're going in one direction, then drop, fly straight up, or whatever. but at close range, the barret user doesnt need to anticipate as much so it's harder.

Shade, no se cuanto tiempo lleva jugando, y sobre todo, desconozco la calidad de los jugadores con la que juega, pero creame, existen unos cuantos que no fallan casi nunca, no importa como se mueva uno. Y con los jugadores normales que usan barret el mero hecho de tener lag impide que puedas realizar acciones evasivas. Esto lo he comprobado constantemente viendo como me matan cuando es fisicamente imposible que una bala llegara a mi posicion.

palloco, entiendo tu punto, pero si me disculpas, las reglas del foro dicen "English Only".
To clear your doubts, I have been playing for, say, 3 months now, everyday a couple of hours, mostly 2 or 3(Thank God I finally got broadband), and know that I play with all "barretards" as you call them. They are always with barret. If not, with M79, but they never leave the 1-shot-kill weapons range (some of then even use the law, but not that much): most of them with a "perfect" aim. I could have been discouraged from playing since every low-ping server I find (that is in the range of South America) is filled with barret users, but then I realized that I would never stop having fun from a bunch of asses that stick to such an overpowered weapon. They are also kinda n00bish in their attitudes, and are a little too big headed, so its not the best people to play with (at least not for you, I'm already used to it).
Either I adapted to survive, or I died. Sooner or later I learned to survive. It is just a matter of practice.

And if you die from high ping, I really recommend gathering with a few friends near you and making a server where you all play. The only high ping I have is when I play in International Servers. But oh well, that is that.
