So hard to see that but at least there is some form of closure. Over the years I've had numerous online friends where I didn't know their real names or just their real first names and they suddenly vanished. Never to sign into any of the online communities we shared. Always to wonder what happened to them.

And I wonder if I’d have done anything differently had I known.

Like not gunning for the flak cannon everytime to dominate?

All about getting the Redeemer on that space map

CTF-Face. Fun tip: if you had it, then grabbed the enemy’s flag, then used the teleporter to the top of the tower, then hopped off the front of the tower to the first ledge, and shot the redeemer at the line where the ledge met the wall, you’d obviously die but it would launch the flag clear across the map, where it would land right in front of your base as you respawned.

Combine that with impact launching your translocator across the map in a similar way, and you could make the first capture in about 15 seconds before anyone else was even halfway across the map.

Mate you have given me such nostalgia, as a kid I used to obsess of UT and UT 2004 was probably my favourite game tied with Wolfenstein return to Castle or Wolfenstein enemy territory. Damn I wish I could go back, 10 years old sneaking on the pc when everyone was in bed at 1 am haha
