@tomatos,

Yes sir,will not post offtopic stuff any longer.

@strife

Basically what he implied was that "this thread feeds upon itself". This is quoted directly as i still rmbr. He went on to say that scrimm players should desire more than just to be top ranking in a pub server and mentioned "guys in lyn++ shold know what im talking about". After that he listed 2 sites of gotfrag's site,one featuring a guide underlining what a casual player should do to become a scrimm player and a very useful link to many demos of clans worldwide. Including pandemic clan.

He signed off by saying this place has turned into something like a jaguh RAM or sth. didnt make sense to me either

As for the training/scrimm,i have no idea yet. Those TnT dudes apparently only have 1 dude who handles scrimms so i gotta ask him about it later.Lets say we dont have a scrimm,what event should we have next? Hmmm... how about having a simulation match where we get a min of 3 on 3 and test out various strategies?

good idea strife,we could easily invade an empty pug server and invite some ppl on our friend lists to come have a go.Should be fun

Yeah thats exactly what i had in mind etsy. Cuz i believe every particular area in a map that we play in a scrimm,has different parts. For ex,db first map final cap.

A few parts to consider are :

1)engy and sg placing
2)Heavy and med on point
3)roaming solly/pyro/demo/scout

So,its not just a "we go in and kill them all" sorta thing,we gotta prepare strategies against each and every one of em.

@freestyler

its ok man. About your engy question,normally i'd recommend against taking an engy class as :

1)You wont have enough time to build proper support like dispenser and sg further out in the map

2)You can then only build near the base which enemies can shoot from afar

but if you really must know,i'd suggest a sentry first.

SCRIMM UPDATE!



This saturday, 7/02/08 at 9 pm msian time. We are going up against TnT. Get some more practice before the scrimm people )I just got off with TnT Kin on this one.He's their event organizer )

Well... i dont know much about headsets but what i do know is,my 3 year old, bused in 1 ear ,rm 45 brandless one still works fine. Im not really a person who would spend a whole lot on computer peripherals like keyboards and headsets. I prefer to save my money for computer parts

Woo i jsut realised the maps etsy put up were added by frozenshift himself. Credits to him for sharing and bring it on with [TQ]. Just tell me when its on xD

Um... etsy,not so sure with my bro.His comp's been fking up lately. Maybe you can help out,his problem is that his pc lags terribly when he plays tf2 after a certain a mount of time.this could be either 5 minutes or all the way to 2 hours,before it lags.

His pc specs are :

windows xp service pack 3
pentium 4 3.2 ghz (yes its pentium 4)
Nvidia 9600 gts
4 gb ram

His pc can easily support games like cod 4 modern warfare on it and play red alert 3 beautifully. He has never had a prob with tf2 till recently. The lag im talking about is framerate lag. All of a sudden his screen gets slow and characters just seem to fly all over the map,jsut as how you would see in latency lags,but we know it isnt latency thats causing this.

We first thought it could be a case of memory leakage so we got the program called "ram Idle" which supposedly stops leakage.guess what?it didnt work :S is my bro's pc just getting to its retirement age?

Heya strife,thx for trying to troubleshoot my prob. Ok,i did as you asked and here's what i found out.

When in tf2: My bro is in the respawn right,and he doesnt move anything,doesnt type or move the mouse. People who died,respawned in front of him and moved out, all lagged.

As for your lil experiment with the music and alhpabet spamming,there doesnt seem to be an effect.Like,playing music or not, the alphabets seem to type at the same speed. Not much noticeable difference.


Also,we both cant seem to connect to steam today,wut gives?:S

@strife

Hmmm.... Ok,its embarrassing to admit this but my bro's comp works best when it hasnt been updated.I know,its preposterous because updates are supposed to make stuff work better. Maybe i could try and get newer updates but as of this moment, his drivers are dated to 2005. ALL drivers. Never had a prob till now though :S. will keep trying and keep you posted.

New update,new problem:

Today itself,i found that when i turn on my bro's pc, nothing comes up on the screen. I gotta restart and hope each time that i do,the problem will go away. Oh,in order to restart the comp,i have to plug out its power cord.I cant get it to turn off the normal way.(Holding the power button for a few seconds) Tell tale signs that its going broke? :S

Ah,now i found something wrong thats affecting the mouse. Apparently when i hover my bro's mouse to a file,like how you would check a file's size without right clicking and choosing "properties" on it, the cursor will keep blinking,like how you open up programs and stuff. Also,one annoying thing has been repeating itself voer and over for a while now,th emouse keeps disconnecting itself and reconnecting over and over again. Its freakin annoying! could this be that IO thingy you were talking about strife?


@cheef
Thanks for the steam connection tips man.Hope to see you there in the scrimms this weekend

Added on February 6, 2009, 9:29 pmWhole day todya my bro and i still cant connect to steam. Wonderful T_T

Thx etsy,will try out your advice. However my one problem still persists,I CANT CONNECT TO TEH DAMN STEAM! >.<

But internet connection no lag to anywhere else also :/


And about the tourney,sry about that etsy but i've made it clear earlier that my bro and i seriously game as far as online scrimms only. If it involves us using our time,money and effort just to go play a game tourney then im sorry but we will never be able to make it. Unless its in penang itself.

Im not saying that i cant be bothered giving a shit for professional gaming but under our circumstances,we cant.Besides we beleive there are other more beneficial things we can do with that time,money and energy spent Sry once again etsy. Although i have to say this, i will be receiving an offer to study in monash uni sunway kl soon so i will be in kl for the duration of 2009 and perhaps well into 2011 (depending on if i wanan take my masters of commerce there or not). so, if i am in kl when there is a tourney,count me in for sure!

Thx to etsy and strife for your understanding. Cheers guys

Im trying out your advice now freestyler Btw since we're having 2 scrimms this weekend,why not you join us and get yourself promoted to lyn++?

Added on February 7, 2009, 10:05 amHmmm guys,depending on how my steam acts up,i may or may not be able to join you on your scrimms. This is because ever since the whole of yesterday and today,my steam cant get online. My bro's steam can,but mine cant. I havent a clue why and i've already downloaded a fresh new version of steam after uninstalling everything. (i made a backup of my steamapps).

one other thing,if my steam does connect,the icon will appear in the taskbar (beside your clock etc ,bottom right of your screen). Nothing else comes up,if i right click on it and choose an option like "store", "games," etc,the icon will disappear and steam shuts itself off. WTF?!
