| Right now I have Shifty, me, Breakaway and Garbage tentatively for our next competitive match against Silentbreed this Sunday at 10PM EST/7PM PST. Let's try to practice at least once before the match. I feel like we are coming up with maps and strategies on the fly too often.
Break and I worked together well when we practiced staying together in defense. Offense is where we need work. Who is what class, etc. | |

| We will be playing on the NML server. I will try to get the password so that we can practice the custom maps. | |

- SilentBreed can play against us Thursday or Sunday at 10PM EST. I know it is late but many of us are still playing at that time anyway. Who is available and which day do you prefer? I can play Thursday.
I'll be available on Sunday to play. | |

Great, just bring your PC and don't forget your mouse pad. Actually, saw your other reply, hopefully you can join us tonight! - alphabeta wrote:

Captain : Virus047, LiquidPain Players : Ducnow, Tallen, SlugaMunky, Bo, Spring, GodCody, Pmosh, Elixir, anamorphic Hmmm, I only recognize Ana, Ducnow, Tallen, and Spring. I don't think Ducnow is all that amazing but he's pretty good I suppose. I do know Ana and Spring are really good though.. Spring is not strings is it? He's even better.. I know Tallen is an old guy from The Rock or TAW or something, but not sure how rusty he is lately.. I just hope we don't get rolled... One thing I'm sick and tired of is being beaten by teams compiled from the best players they know. They should be required to have a CLAN and a HOME SERVER and play together for so long before they can join a league as a "team".. but I digress... Let's just go out there and try to kick some ass tonight.. If we lose... at least we'll learn something (hopefully).. Did someone say 1nf3rn0 was going to be on "shoutcasting" ?? WTF does that mean exactly, like playing referee? Or helping us but just specing, not actually playing? We can learn a lot from that guy.. I really like him, esp. when he talks. He is a really down to earth guy, once you get past him fragging the crap out of you every 28 seconds... | |

| Shoutcast recording of the match: http://www.twitch.tv/etqwtv/b/313640590Thanks to 1NF3RN0 for narration and great insight (learned some good pointers while watching it after playing it) and also to the mysterious Jet.Li who saved our butt several times. I wasn't there for the beginning/briefing earlier today from 1NF3RN0, but it sounded like was instructing us to do crossfiring, based on his commentary. I didn't think about this at the time, but in hindsight, I see how it helps. If we had practiced together, even once or twice, it would have helped us even more. Then again our "ringer" Jet.Li offset that quite a bit too, so who knows.. Either way, IT WAS VERY FUN, and I look forward to the next one... ps. My "funny noises in global" was laughing at Ducnow who dropped a crate ON HIMSELF, and then my quadruple "Owned" spam was there cuz I Pwn3d their top two guys back to back and then capped the spawn.. | |

| This was exceptionally fun and I feel like it is making me a much better shooter. Thanks to Shifty, Garbage and the fabulous Jet Li who really amped up our team. I would love to have a practice this week since (for once) my schedule permits it. Any night is fine; just let me know your preferences.
1nsane when do you want to play our match between CrYpT and CS4S? | |

| The big thing I learned from my one hour private tutorial with Inferno was positioning and crossfires. Everything in 4v4 is staying alive, using your teammates in a coordinated fashion, knowing when to abandon an objective, spawn timing (and class change respawn timing!) and how to set up crossfires. That video of our match was really eye opening in terms of tactics. And we really need a second top shooter like Shifty. Jet Li really saved our butts. | |

| Shifty, oh mighty master, how do we improve our accuracy?? I set my sensitivity lower and I think it helped, but I might have to go EVEN lower, and that is kind of scary.. It's already at like 2.7.. ??? | |

| Sensitivity is largely a personal preference, but I feel that lower helps a bit better (although I knew a guy who played with 27 in RTCW). I think if you even wanted to go overkill, you can change the sensitivity in both the Y and X direction, but that just throws me off. One thing I always go off of is being able to cover 180 degrees in one sweep of your mouse, ie keeping your forearm stationary and solely moving your wrist. That way you're not so low so you have trouble tracking, but you're also not all over the place. Crosshair size/color/shape might also make a difference. Experiment around and see if anything works. Some things may seem unnecessary or random, but from person to person may end up making a big difference in perception. Just my 2cents.
Also, awesome game, it was really fun to watch, most definitely thought you guys were going to pull out that win! haha
