I have a counter-proposal (Crispy vs. Kalin TO THE DEATH)

[Thac0]

Die Straße frei den braunen Bataillonen.
Die Straße frei dem Sturmabteilungsmann!
Es schau'n aufs Hakenkreuz voll Hoffnung schon Millionen.
Der Tag für Freiheit und für Brot bricht an!

Unsre Fahne flattert uns voran.
In die Zukunft ziehn wir Mann für Mann.
Wir marschieren für Hitler durch Nacht und durch Not
mit der Fahne der Jugend für Freiheit und Brot.

Why are Propaganda songs so damn good?

Because people wouldn't want to remember and sing bad ones?

I love the flak cannon.

I love the flak cannon.

Ahh to be honest here, 1vs1 are shit. It is race to the power armour and then it is one sided. If you want test of pure skillz you put the modifier instagib or sniperarena.

Honestly, not really. I've played UT matches where I've been able to keep someone from snowballing their way to victory just because they snagged the armor powerup first. Flak Cannon does ungodly amounts of damage, you can quickly erase an armor advantage if you play smart. It helps if the map has terrain hazards, though - quickest way to keep someone from riding armor powerups to victory is to just knock them off a ridge into a bottomless pit or lava, preferably with Shock Rifle combos, the Rocket Launcher, or Flak Cannon alt-fire.

That really depends on the players levels. If you are on equal footing it ends up being down to luck,who gets spawned closer to the armour. And yeah the flak is king,doesn't mean that the enemy could just guard it. Even with the flak you will need two lifes unless the enemy messes up. For tryhards and people that play too much of the game,map knowledge is very important. That is why most online games have like 4 retarded maps repeated at nauseam,and never try anything new. Playing against normal players,it is only natural to get 10-0 lol. If you want a match of pure skillz,just go last man standing or instagib mutator. For a big game with more people,it is a different story. In such games map knowledge is mostly irrelevant,the goal is to be good at killing shit.

Okay, you guys can stop quoting that video any time now.

Yeah this match was a bit of puppykicking in terms of player skill difference, and map knowledge on a map suitable for 1v1 is fairly trivial in terms of what it takes to commit it to rough memory. I find instagib generally turns into "who saw who first" and even a notable gap in player skill can narrow a bit as long as the underdog isn't a complete retard.

Yeah the map is easy to learn,still if you haven't play in some time,you won't learn it while getting killed every 3 seconds. LoL assuming that everyone has 100% accuracy is an excuse,you will be surprised at how inaccurate people can be. Also instagib weapons has a small hit box,even if to looks big,might be even smaller than the sniper. It will be a lot more fairer than fighting a guy with 150 armour and 200 health and full ammo for all the map weapons lol.

That said,is anyone up for a big codexian UT game? Come on guys,we are all old and shit at the game.

Been years. Really rusty and I don't have my UT99 disc anymore, only the GOG version of UT2004 CE.

who you calling old buddy, ill kick your ass any time any place

but first give me a couple of weeks to practice

 

[Ontopoly]

any alternate account(s) on Codex (an "alt" / "alts") for the purpose of attempting to circumvent this fate, his new alt(s) shall be immediately banned and removed by Codex Administration, and his current, original account ("Kalin") shall receive a new tag, the customary one of "Dumbfuck".

Why does he have to go through all that work in order for you guys to give him the dumbfuck tag but I got one for making one post that is arguably not even a shit post. Anyways, #TeamCrispy.

 

[ERYFKRAD]

Anyways, #TeamCrispy

And you wonder why you got tagged, you Larian cultist.

 

[Ninjerk]

What did Kalin even get banned for? or whatever happened to him.

Infinitron is the larian cultist. Being team crispy means I'm against the larian cultists. Also, I'm pretty sure infinitron gave me that tag so having the tag makes me even less of a larian cultist. There's not a single person on this website who has done more for the anti-larian cause than I have. How could you say something like this?

Mayhap you haven't noticed, but this is a spat between Crispy and Kalin, not between Crispy and Infinitron. In fact, Crispy and Infinitron are on the same side in this whole mess. Congrats for supporting them, I guess?

 

[Crispy]

Infinitron and I aren't really on the "same side" of anything -- it's just that he and I are both reasonable and came to the conclusion the whole thing was silly.

Once he opened Pandora's Box, however, and DU got involved, it was then out of our hands.

And now that it's out of your hands, we all need to take a side. You can't stay neutral on a moving train people!

I will 1v1 you in Codex DM with instagib.

 

[a cut of domestic sheep prime]

Back in the day, I used to play instagib on double speed and I could easily snipe across the large maps.

Ah memories.
