lemme see, column update eh?

urm i could go on about q3, and the wpdml and pings and shit like that, but fuckit just look @ my last few updates and change the team names, same thing



started playing qw for the first time the other day. i hear its faster , more fun , less irritating, better net code, the game of the gods ect ect.

i've seen it being played faster, but not when i play it. by fuck its so diff to q3, i still cant figure out how to strafe jump properly, i can do this weird jumpy thingy instead still get abit of speed outta it but no control and nothing like the speed i've seen sam go. most of the time i haven’t a fupping clue what the hell is going on.

considering i'm about 4 or so years behind the general populous is there really any point of relearning how to strafe jump, rl jump, all the maps, tactics ect. i dunno, dont know if i can be bothered tbh.



then theres cs, i've played it once on lan with sutty, gerry and airk @ an acidlan a few weeks ago (sutty being the only cs'r btw rest of us had never even seen the game b4)

u can’t really judge a game after playing it for or so 10 mins so i'll say no more. was thinking of giving it a go, just gotta get a fully patched ready to go copy ( theres no fuck'in way i'm d/ling all that shit )

i've heard it ez to get into. looks painfully slow tho, closer to rainbow 6, which absolutely rocks on lan buts about as fun as watching paint dry online.



so q3 eh? strange thing about it is, every1 else is pissed off with it cos its panicy, irritating game. tbh i dont really mind that, like ya it can be bleed'in annoying sometimes when ur gettin raped and great when ur 0wning but i want it all dammit. the dizzying highs the infuriating lows the creamy middles.

it’s just the (insert profanity here) net code i can’t stand. like we lost to slh by less then 10 frags the other night despite having 3 times their fupping lag. you just feel so cheated, we would have 0wned them on even ping, but thats constantly the story. with only 3 active irish clans (including ourselves) the only good close fair game we can play is against fh on vishnu. thats it.



fingers crossed that doom3 will be the game that changes everything, but its so far off atm.



suppose i could always go back to ut ?

what a horrible thought

just keep playing q3. BW league will change things.. you will still be at a disadvantage, but it will be nothing like the gaaay laggy wpdml, and it will be a lot more fun (remember clan-wars 4v4?). i feel the same way about doom3 tho

just keep playing the game havok, it's class... I still enjoy Quake2 and Counterstrike but Quake3 beats everything hands down for fast paced dm,ctf and ra3 action.
don't fuckin mind these bl33tors constantly spamming their columns with q3 is a shyte game rubbish. They obviously don't play enuff... the bwdml is a class league, likewise the bwctfl and the savage uk leagues have gotten a lot better now.

Dont give up on QW. It may be kinda hard to get into if your coming from a Q3 background but I promise you its the most fun you can have (unless you venture out into the "real world") and if your having fun who cares how good you are at it?
