Game 4: Zanzibar http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStats.aspx?gameID=44757961&player=ryan w
CAG 50 DCR 19

EDIT: And by the way...my write-up is superior to Ledhed's[/quote]

Don't judge unity by those set of games I have never seen him play so bad maybe having his screen split by his guest was messing him up.[/quote]

I don't wanna make excuse's for Adam. Not saying you are, Jeremy, but I know he's tons better than what he played last night.

Like I said, give us a few weeks fellas, and we'll pull a Rocky 2 on your bitchasses! :wink:
 
since it seems that some players are better then others in certain jobs maybe it'd be a good idea to break some players into what they are best at. We need to find out who is a good at what.

Some specialties could include:
Defense, Offence, Support, Sabotage, Scout, Sniper, Driver, Gunner, Rocketman, Pilot.

A real balanced team should have people that fill all those job well. Nothing is sadder then being on a team with no defense, or no one using the veichles.

This idea has been tossed about before, and it's simply not going to happen with a casual clan such as this. Plus, being a good player means being able to adapt to whatever situation you find yourself in. What you excel in should determine part of you prerogative, but not all of it. I'd be perfectly happy if a player were good at lots of things as opposed to being great in just a couple of areas.

well said. again, sorry i had to leave that match earlier, how did you guys do?
 
[quote name='rocksolidaudio']again, sorry i had to leave that match earlier, how did you guys do?[/quote]

No prob. I believe we won, though I don't recall for sure and I can't check the stats because Bungle is down again.
 
Decent night...leveled up twice...sorry for being lackluster for the first half though guys...should've practiced before matchmaking I guess...see you all tommorow
 
[quote name='cruzincontrol']Add me to list gamertag below....[/quote]

dude, we already sent you an invites months ago but you never played with us so you were cut. staff, let's hold off on the re-invites for now.

everyone, here's how it is: if you're not able to play with us regularly (meaning a couple hours a night, a couple nights a week), you don't belong on a clan. or, at least not ours. yes, we're a fairly casual clan, but we're still a clan. we're all dedicated to playing with each other, learning from one another, and improving together as a team. we're very large and multifaceted, yes, but playing together often is something we all have in common. if you just want some good people to play with when you get online, put a couple of us on your friends list, and hop into the non-invite custom games that we play. we're very friendly for the most part, and i'd like to think fairly welcoming to strangers.

also, please don't sign up just to be associated further with CAG. we all love the site, but the clan is for actual gaming. i've noticed several people who sound excited when joining, then just end up never playing with us when they're on (if they're on at all). point is, if you've been cut once, you'd better have a good reason why you should be allowed back in and commit to actually playing with us for a change. no hard feelings to those that got cut already of course, i'm just saying maybe a clan isn't for you. any questions?

would this apply to those that work 3rd shift as well? i know it doesn't matter to me after this week, since i am getting laid off, but its just a general question. i get on when i can and as of next week, i'll be a regular at practice.

well i am getting on here in a minute.
 
i've seen you on a ton of times already, and i play a lot less than some others in the clan. no worries. even participating in this thread is a sign that you give a damn.
 
Hey guys, sorry haven't been playin. Got hooked on MGS3: Snake Eater. And believe me, it is the shiznit. I'll be back once I beat snake eater.
 
[quote name='jughead']Hey guys, sorry haven't been playin. Got hooked on MGS3: Snake Eater. And believe me, it is the shiznit. I'll be back once I beat snake eater.[/quote]

yea that game is awesome, but for some reason halo keeps pulling me back in. I havent even gotten very far yet.
 
Too many great games lately, but I'm starting to practice in the training games with my brother. I really sucked in a match I had with fellow CAGer's the other night. I hate small maps, I do much better in maps with vehicles.

i keep trying to play ratchet & clank 3 (my favorite series this generation), but it's fucking impossible to sit down at my tv and play anything besides halo 2... :?

alright cool. it shouldn't be a problem for me to be to practice starting next week, unless i happen to work another 3rd shift job during my lay off.

[quote name='Trakan']For me, it's switching between this and PoP: WW.[/quote]

yeah for me its this and kingdom hearts on the ps2. somehow the gba version got me to go back and start this one over. but yeah, game time will be a plenty for atleast 2 weeks for me, then i must search for a job.
 
I should be on tonight no problem to layeth the smacketh down on some roody-poo candy asses. So warm up your controllers and pick up a pack of smokes, cause when I am finished, you are definitely going to need a cigarette break. Also any reference to my girlfriend yelling at me and being heard through the mic, because I can only kill 3 of the 4 guys attacking me will be considered a personal insult and will be dealt with via a pistol whipping.
 
(faint sound of various beeps and typewriters)

THIS JUST IN

Those of you who have noticed your Rumble stats reverted to zero will be happy to know that Bungie has isolated the problem and returned everyone to their Rumble Pit rank as of December 31st.

[quote name='Bungie'] After a period of investigation, we’ve discovered what caused the rankings in the Rumble Pit matchmaking playlist to be reset on January 1st. We have isolated the problem and we can revert player rankings to the point before they were reset.

After some discussion, we decided that this would benefit more players than it hurts, but rankings achieved since Jan 1 will be reset to either their status on December 31, or for brand new players, simply reset to level 1.

This server update will take place at 2am PST tomorrow morning, in order to minimize disruption to the service. During this period, stats for those Rumble Pit matches will be unavailable.

We realize this process will cause some aggravation – especially for players who’ve been working since Jan 1 to regain their ranking, but we feel far more players will benefit than suffer. For those who are annoyed, we genuinely apologize. Fixing the rankings should also alleviate the mismatches that inexperienced players have had to suffer through.[/quote]

Ledhed News reporting, first on the scene to bring you the news you (especially Arikado :wink: ) want to hear.

There was a point about a month ago that i thought I was gonna kick the addiction but then a whole new depth to the gameplay seemed to appear. The little tricks you can use and finding out about them is quite fun. I played for 13 hours straight saturday I haven't gamed that much in a row since I was a teenager
 
A few of us ran into some cheaters last night, using the modem exploit cheat.

There were two matches, one of them a CTF Wraiths on Coag:
One minute we're making nice progress towards the second score, then we're all sitting at the "Re-connecting" screen for about a minute, almost two. Once we came back, the other side had ALL the vehicles, ALL the weapons except for a couple, and they had scored once in response while we were sitting around doing nothing. This gave them the advantage they needed to win 2-1, since they monopolized all the vehicles for most of the rest of the game.

The other one was a 4 x 4 Team Slayer game on Burial Mounds:
I was making my way to the rocket launcher, and then within one step of it, everything went on "pause". When I came back, the rocket launcher was gone, I was well past it, and was being sniped by someone. Suddenly, one guy was left, as his other three teammates had disappeared. Just the sniper left. I hopped into the Ghost, made it to where he was sniping from, and then ran him down with the Ghost. He quit the game right afterwards.

JimmieMac, azn, greendj and I were there for both the games. After the matches, I left them all feedback for cheating.

I went to look for the games in my games history and couldn't find them, for some reason, otherwise I would've posted them.

Your games list may not have updated yet. My list hasn't finished updating from last night either. You did the important thing though: you reported them through Live. ALWAYS do that, if nothing else.

That's screwed up, man. How the heck can people do the modem exploit?

It's every week, Tuesday and Thursday at 9:30 PM CST. It's in the OP.

You were our secret weapon, zewone, the "way-higher-level-than-level-1" stealth player. :D

Maybe we should have all of our best clan mates make guest tags and that way, we scare the heck out of people by being beaten by a bunch of level 1's?

Only if we have ridiculously juvenile names like 2l33t4uX0r. My buddy and I would do this all the time in Halo PC.

I'm asking how do they do the cheat? I'm not interested in learning how to actually use the cheat, but more interested in what they're doing.

Everyone else goes to the blue waiting screen while one guy stays in the game and he either kills you or takes the flag or arms the bomb.

EDITED to not show how the trick is done.

EXACTLY the reason why I want to play. It would be like a barometer to compare how we would fare against the Bungie folk.
