Why do people think this game is hard
« on: December 04, 2014, 07:11:21 pm »
Why do people think this game is competitive and difficult?

Melee hardly requires skill, for fucks sakes there's only 2 attack directions. My grandpa could be a "pro" at melee and he doesn't even know what a computer is. Bayonet duels are pretty much a test of who does something stupid first

Also, regimental linebattles are a terrible way of testing the skill of a regiment. From what I've seen, the more you abuse the rules (FOL, not being in a complete line etc.) and the map layouts, the more likely you are to win.

I don't play this game anymore, I'm just curious to hear from the le epic melee gods xD about why they think they are the shit for winning at what is the equivalent of the special olympics.

Changed the title of thread

9-11 Coaster.

Find out what it's like to spin, glide, skim and fly like a giant airplane when you experience "United Airlines Flight 175"® – the only flying roller coaster of its kind in the world. Riders are taunted by a head-first, face-down inverted crash into the twin towers… and that's just the beginning. Experience the full force and power of riding down the twin towers, all on one of the deadliest tracks in the world.

It's not, really. all I have to do to not lose is move up my mouse up and down and right click

Can someone explain to me how this is difficult?

It's still Competetive though. The only sad points are that almost all elite regiments disbanded.

Go play groupfighting and pretend how "good" you are at "melee" or something you child.

Why don't you go on GroupFighting? You claim melee to be easy and it takes no skill.

Nope, uninstalled the game.

If I wanted to play something that actually required skill and thinking, I would play cRPG or native. The majority of players in those mods can block 4 directions  ::)

I'm not trying to be pretentious, just stating how retarded you sound.

You still haven't refuted any of my points though, you're just using an autistic form of ad hominem

Description of Ad Hominem

Translated from Latin to English, "Ad Hominem" means "against the man" or "against the person."

An Ad Hominem is a general category of fallacies in which a claim or argument is rejected on the basis of some irrelevant fact about the author of or the person presenting the claim or argument. Typically, this fallacy involves two steps. First, an attack against the character of person making the claim, her circumstances, or her actions is made (or the character, circumstances, or actions of the person reporting the claim). Second, this attack is taken to be evidence against the claim or argument the person in question is making (or presenting). This type of "argument" has the following form:

Person A makes claim X.
Person B makes an attack on person A.
Therefore A's claim is false.
