You mean being the best at a video game ISN'T serious business?Originally Posted by Fluvie
Man I was seriously chastising myself for awhile because I was going out and having a life instead of trying to get really good at BS2 MP. D:
(Not directed towards you Fluvie, that was for zMcfrenzy).
I don't think zapping all the time before getting headshots is being the best now just pure headshots is where the skill lies
I freeze my foe and then shoot them, but now that I have the Nail Gun I don't use that Load-Out anymore.
Not for nothing but Cr1tiKaL was doing that in his montage vids long before McFrenzy ever did. Actually McFrenzy edited it almost exactly the same as Cr1tikaL if you've ever seen one of his vids. Maybe it's just a common editing style for montages. I'm not sure as I haven't seen that many.
But I have to give it up to McFrenzy, he really knows how to negotiate those headshots. He has the same method as me which I think is the best: strafing the targeting reticle over your opponent's head and firing when you've got them locked in your sight. I'd really like to know what controller sensitivity he uses because I still haven't found the perfect setting.
yeah he is arrogant, but i can't deny that he is good, those headshots do take some skill.Not for nothing but Cr1tiKaL was doing that in his montage vids long before McFrenzy ever did.

But he can't have my cookie, i don't care how good he is.
Same here. I started using the EB/EG combo about 3 weeks ago and was amazed by how simple it was once you got use to where the head was. It was fun racking up the kills which have probably double since I started using it (from like 10 to 20 a game now!) but it wasn't that gratifying. But once I got use to where the head usually was I started going for the no plasmid HS's. Now THOSE are gratifying. Ask anyone I ever go into a party with. Every time I get one I'm so proud of myself I have to announce it
Can I haz your cookie?
Not my video. Just find it while searching for stuff on youtube.

Oh, I believe it. I haven't seen Cr1tikaL's videos, but there seems to be a kind of egotistical "l33ter-than-thou" subculture in MP games in general.Not for nothing but Cr1tiKaL was doing that in his montage vids long before McFrenzy ever did.

And I do admit, McFrenzy knows how to play, how to win. As was said before, I wish he'd tone it down a bit and just play (the Baseball player analogy Fluvie used fits nicely).
I'm curious about his sensitivity, too. I am not skilled at headshots yet, and my temporary loss of Live doesn't help me practice.
Hahah definitely. Especially when they edit it so the screen does a magnified close-up of their Gamertag when they pull off a crazy shot. As if we didn't know whose montage we were watching already
Sure, everyone can haz a bit of my cookie!!Same here. I started using the EB/EG combo about 3 weeks ago and was amazed by how simple it was once you got use to where the head was. It was fun racking up the kills which have probably double since I started using it (from like 10 to 20 a game now!

how much is a capture card?
Prices can vary quite a bit. I got a crappy composite USB one for $10, but obviously it's not as good as one that would cost more. My guess is that a middle of the road (non HD) capture card would run you between $40 and $60 or so.
Cool thanks, i heard from one of my friends that it could get in the hundreds but i think you know what you are talking about
Not my personal video but i saw this on youtube.

Of course it's not yours Timmer.
i use a dazzle but these days if your putting up standard definition videos you wont get the same recognition you'd get if you used a HDPVR, im looking to get a HDPVR in August as also playing in Standard Definition just plain sucks, i like my 1080p
HDPVR http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/site/prod...ata_hdpvr.html
how much is that?
200 dollars me and mcfrenzy use the same capture card. For quality type on youtube hauppauge quality test
hmm expensive. that would probably be like 160 or something in pounds. but oh well maybe i buy one so I dont haved to change to crappy 21 inch sd tv
Very nice,you showed him Jaymie! Awesome vid.
Hmm,yeah i've been wanting to record in HD too.So the hauppauge is $200? Anything else required to record? Also it says it record through cable set boxes,but you can just record straight from the TV right?

^^same thing for xbox 360 users just ps3 as example^^
you will have to buy a ps3 component cable or an xbox 360 component cables if you don't have them
"Jaymie Timmer Defeats HARDC0RE using nothing but his pistol"
No offence Jaymie, but that is a cheap loadout to me
Anyone who's played Bioshock for a while could get OSK's with EB and the Crossbow, and killing yourself with grenade launcher?
I also saw a lot of kill-stealing there, buddy
Here's my other pistol game i think theres something wrong with my hauppauge because im using a pistol but for some reason on the capture card it shows a crossbow i have no idea."Jaymie Timmer Defeats HARDC0RE using nothing but his pistol"

This is why I don't play SOTF
Um......no.....
haha my computer can't handle the requirements for the hauppauge. you must understand that my computer was built in 1998. Technically it is a Gateway 2000 but i am suspecting that it was made from various counterfeit parts.
Whatever.
Crossbow does not equate to pistol.
I hope you haven't caught a case of the Stoopids,or Weapon Dyslexia.
I may make some MP vids but they could be unwatchable.......
Why?
....
Crappy quality
I'm still waiting for my capture card to arrive. I ordered it a little over a week ago.
Damn UPS.
When they arrive, you should bust out a baseball bat and thell them to respect your athorita..
Haha, and then get banned from usage of UPS ever again, haha.
i already have a cap card but im gonna buy that hauppauge when i get enough money so i dont have to switch to standard def when playing my games to record. really hard to see when playing in sd
Record one now, I wanna see a master play!
you talking to rybow or me? because both me and ry have videos posted on youtubeRecord one now, I wanna see a master play!
raginpuma what should i look for when searching for your vids.
What did you get
I dont care what/who I see, Im just bored/desperate! DX
Also, Timmer, your vids are surprisingly.... good.... Not Godly or Kingly like Rybepha-fa-fa however....
i think i have a vid on page 2 or 3 of this thread. only 1 though
