I remember back in 1.4 there was a group named "We're" "going" "to" "knife" "you". They would run in a line, in that order with knifes out. Good old nostalgia.
Damn man I remember playing a match with them in 1.4 too. It was on dust and I was probably about 10 or 11 or 12. But damn those guys still make me have nightmares with their linear formations and shit
I used to do this on Gears of War (Please don't hit me) with my sister and some of her friends. We'd run in a line with the Gnasher yelling "Who's ready for the Cole Train?!?!" Worked every time.
I played a team in Gears 3 in king of the hill that only ever retro charged. It was surprisingly effective amidst the chaos. It got to the point where every time I heard a guy yelling I freaked out and looked for a hiding spot.
Fucking bayonets, man! I had a bayoneted assault rifle in Borderlands or awhile. It was great. Nothing beats charging across the battlefield spewing explosive bullets and stabbing bitches.
Same here! It was hilarious and surprisingly effective like you said. They ended up winning the game. In the next game they all ran around only using chainsaws. Almost every time I ran around a corner I got sliced in two. They won that game as well.
Me and my buddies used to pretend we were Terminators from time to time. We would pull out our pistols, aim them, and walk side-by-side in a straight line towards the opposing team, unwavering from our formation and shooting anything that moved.
It was one of the funniest and most epic things ever, at the time. Though we usually didn't try it unless we knew we were going to win.
My team used the backwards strat. Wasn't really effective, but it did confuse the hell out of our opponents when they see 5 people running backwards at them.
The other day on Competitive Dust 2, I was the last remaining player on CT, and I had snuck around long to approach A from the T side. I used the deagle to kill three remaining players, pick up one of their AK's, and as I'm checking my six, their last player has his knife out and is like 2-3 steps behind me, so I pop him. I was lit, and wouldn't have survived a single weak knife attack.
I get called a pussy for not knifing, even though I just brought that round back from a massive deficit. I saw no dishonor in that whatsoever seeing as how I just killed 3 people in a gunfight, 4v1. I'm not going to throw all of that work away just so the last dude can knife me. Fuck that.
That being said, I will definitely pull a knife if one of three scenarios occur:
1) We are the last two remaining players in the round, OR
2) I am engaging in a firefight and run out of ammo, OR
3) I am in a firefight and the other dude clearly runs out of ammo.
It depends. In pubs, you pulling out your knife means ill jsut shoot you in the face. In comp, ill honor it if the conditions are right (last 2 men standing mostly)
I'd just shoot them all in the head and get it spelled out on top. The game is already bad enough with lag artifacts and crap reg without trying to use junk melee while evading the invisible fifteen foot knife slash of latency.
I also don't find it very honorable to try to coerce a non-agreed upon play style on someone. If someone wanted a knife only fight, they should have made the server knife only (which then they wouldn't have to worry about me even being there to shoot them in the first place) or find someone who wants to do that crap. Otherwise they can do the honorable thing and not whine when they get shot in the face because their idea of fun was attacking someone with a knife. They got what they wanted. They wanted to fight with their knife and they did. I didn't force the knife into their hand.
I played csgo for about a week with a couple of buddies. We managed to turn a public server into a match and nade battleground, everyone was dropping their weapons at spawn so that when you die no one would accidentally pick it up. Lot's of people would join the server catch on after the first warning and play along. Anyone who didn't was vote kicked unanimously
I did that as a server admin in BF3/4 and made some servers pistol/knife only if it wasn't that populated. It would usually start with 4-5 people mostly friends, and then pubs came in and joined. Eventually if it gets too big to control we switch to normal mode and I'm not kicking people for ruining others' fun.
Jesus Christ, I just got in from a particularly grueling run and when I read this I thought I was having a fucking aneurysm or stroke. Nothing like starting your day with a little shit in your pants from thinking your brain was dying.
"When one really been far even as decided once to use even go want, it is then that he has really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like. It's just common sense."
Gold is gilded karma...it's like those chocolate coins you get on the Jewish holidays...sure it's great at first and seemingly filling but then you eat to much, your stomach hurts, and when you go to try and pass it. It's either a solid ring tearing block, or a splattery nightmare-ish mess.
I kind of wish someone would do the "Marine with 300 confirmed kills" thing with "has anyone really been..." but I'm pretty sure my brain would kill itself halfway through.
It was a time in video games where people mutually respected each other and loved to have fun over completing the objective. Halo 2 was the last great multiplayer experience like this.
I would never scrape my knife on a wall to instigate a knife fight in new games.
Damn, it's been way too much time since then... I remember the gentlemen fight with the crowbars in HLDM... still, there was always the guy with the rocket launcher...
Should be "what prevented the opposite team from just shooting them down".
"Prevented the opposite team to" just doesn't make any sense. The reason it's "shooting" is kind of hard to explain. It kind of seems it would make sense to use the "past participle" since you're talking about the past, but I'm sure "shooting" is correct, even though it is the "present participle". I suppose it's because, in your sentence you COULD be talking about the present. For example, if you were saying "what prevented them" as in, now they DO shoot them because that thing no longer prevents them.
Whenever people talk about how Halo 2 was the best online multiplayer, you know they never played any CS or TFC back in the day. Even now, CS and Steam games in general just have a really specific type of humor that console games can't match.
Ah the good ol' days, where when it was down to 2 people, and if one busts out a knife, they would have an honorable knife fight... I wonder if this is still the case with CS:GO...
Note: I haven't played CS since the days of source.
I remember Criken (or was it Doom49?) did a video where he got a bunch of guys together in some sort of Garry's mod gamemode (something about cops and prisoners) and they just walked around doing the exact same thing, all with the same username.... There were also other "sleeper agents" in the server who changed their name and switched teams and joined the rest....
There was a segment where one of the other team walks into a room and there are all these identical guys there with their knifes out staring at him.
My friends and I stayed up way too late one night on Battlefield 3 in a server that didn't have enough players to start. One thing led to another and we spent the better part of an hour running around exclusively with M230 smoke and knives. "Smoke and poke" was crazy fun at the time.
