CAG Warhawk Night [TBD]

I read that if you move with your knife out you will not show up on the map - so you can move around freeley. This must be true because I have been passed over by many while running with the nife drawn.

I have also been flipped by Warhawks plenty of times :bomb: But I LOVE killing Warhawks with a gernade.... its the best :bouncy:
 
Haven't turned the PS3 on yet, we are talking PS3 firmware, not Warhawk, right?

Another tip (a recent favorite of mine):
When you have a sniper rifle, shoot at parked Warhawks, Jeeps (or Giant Enemy Crabs) to deal it some massive damage. Don't let it explode though, just wait for a sucker to approach it, then finish the job.
Try to destroy the Warhawk before the enemy gets in, or else it's hard to catch. The Jeep, not so much. Unfortunately I can't remember how many hits they take before exploding...

The possible bonus is if you don't finish the job yourself, a teammate may be able to do it for you since the enemy is using a heavily damaged vehicle.

Yeah, PS3 firmware, I guess he was excited.:lol:

Giant Enemy Crabs...

And that trick only works if the enemy is an idiot and doesn't check the hp of vehicles before getting in.

In some ways, yes. It'll make people that are repairing things easier to pick off since they probably need to stay still.
 
To remind everyone, Warhawk night is still on and I'm going to alter the map rotation right now. I plan to put 9 maps.

I'll probably do:

DM
TDM
CTF
Zones
TDM (w/ dogfight)
CTF
Zones
TDM
DM

We Hit 1000 in this thread. :D

Anyway, the game is still on tonight and I already have the stages set. We will play nine stages, and I completely re-sorted them (so it won't be a repeat of last week).

:applause::lol: same here! I look at it, thinking that was fucking sweet..:drool:
 
Good games, everyone. I was planning to take off right after the dogfight, but I couldn't pull myself away. Sadly, my headset died pretty early on, so I tried to stay on defense mostly. Maybe next time that happens Mana can just beam one of his million extra headsets over the Internet to me. :)

This week's bomb goes to whoever kept trying to push people off ledges with the warhawk: :bomb: Got me on Archipelago, and I think Cthulhu on Eucadia. He was pretty confused, haha.
 
All I know is we NEED to have a deathmatch with ONLY the knife... that would be fun! No guns, flame throwers - anything... just the knife!!
 
[quote name='mguiddy']There needs to be an update that adds more customization options to matches... Knife only fight anyone?:twisted:[/quote]

Except I said it first...

Anywho, tonights game seemed a lot more challenging, don't know if there were more/different people than I'm used to or I'm rusty.

Yeah and TMK, I'll be able to host next week, but not Friday, it'll have to be Saturday.
 
[quote name='Thomas96']This game could benefit from In game Screen shots.. I'd love to get a capture of the ManaBlade in action..[/quote]
:rofl:

This game could also benefit from a lot of things; something like Halo 3's forge, a decent online stats page (like ET:QW's), Halo 3's video/screenshot capture thingy.

I may still have you host on Saturday at 11pm (or maybe 10pm, since I might push CoD4 night off next weekend). I'll just ask metaly, thelonicon, or someone else.

I would love to see a knife fight in the nighttime (in game, of course)... Too bad there isn't an option to control the time of day.

If it has to be Friday I can set up a dedicated server before I leave for work and just leave it up.

true... this game could definitely use all of those things and more. Incognito spent all that time trying to do a single player mode, and had to salvage the game via its multiplayer mode. Because they were so busy salvaging, they eneded up leaving out the advanced features of MP game. If they had planned for Warhawk to be what it is today, it would have had those features. (maybe).

The online stats page seams it would be easiest to do. The Warhawk stats page is horrible. It doesn't even give me the info I want (Rank, Badges/medals/ribbons, etc) and there isn't a way to direct link to your page.

I'm hoping they start adding more features or at least they put them in Warhawk 2 (if it's coming).

I'm not sure a stats page is that easy. One of my friends worked on the ETQW stats page in Ruby on Rails and it was a ton of work. They usually contract out that kind of stuff.

Well I did say easiest, not easy, as in it wouldn't involve a huge redesign of the game, like a Halo 3 type movie/screenshot capture feature would.
 
It was a blast. I am so glad I decided to pick up Warhawk when it was on sale at Target a couple weeks back. Deathmatch was ridiculously fun! Can't wait for next week!
