A first for me in Tribes:Ascend

Post by XMEN Ashaman DTM »

Got accused of cheating. LOL! If they only knew!

It was one of the team deathmatch maps (the big one shaped like a bowl).

I was apparently *magically* able to ski around that map fairly easily as a HO, and apparently it is bad taste for someone to use the missile launcher (even if it's the only weapon that was working for me). The players said they were running fraps and going to send it to the devs.

I didn't have many kills, and actually three players ended up chasing me around the map trying to get me while skiing as a HO. Mortars were laid, but not many kills. :(

Anyways, it was funny. And I don't think I'm that good at anything much more than trying to hit the other team.

I bet if they weren't typing so much they could have caught you. Hard to type and ski.

It took a lot longer for you to be accused of cheating in T2. I remember when you posted about that one. :)

I never get accused of cheating, only of being a lamer. As in:

"Quit putting out claymores like a lamer"

"Quit sniping, only lamers do that"

"Quit spamming mortars OMG lamer"

"Quit body blocking like a lamer"

It's always the other team calling me a lamer too....

Yeah. I noticed people complain a lot about that kind of thing. And if you MA someone, man... you'd think the complainers never thought you could point the weapons "up"...

A lot of them don't. Remember with T1/T2 when people who were good at, say, Quake would come in and apparently be totally flummoxed by the 3rd dimension.
