Other than severely wishing they kept the old point system where inked turfed points equated to amoumt of cash received, I don't think turf wars is a complete dumpster fire... most days. But until at least matchmaking improves, I'll figure something out.
Meanwhile I want to remind everyone that tenta missiles gifts each locked target four missiles. No more, rarely less. But as good as it is to share, some things aren't worth sharing! Like chickenpox. And tenta missiles!
Though I do enjoy sharing and the occasional gift, I rather not be gifted with extra tenta missiles! Please allow me to just... cherish the four missiles I've already been given. Not eight. Not twelve. Not sixteen. Not as many as thirty-two (seriously team?! seriously!?). Just the four I was given (sometimes eight if there were two launchers). Thank you.
Aw Ansible, I only share because I care, baby :p
Though I do agree having to stop turfing and do a few laps around the area every 30 seconds to outrun yet another barrage gets annoying pretty quick...
SURE WOULD BE NICE TO NOT GET CURBSTOMPED IN TURF LOL. Though there was less of that last night than I'm used to, for reasons which remain unclear, but I'm not about to question. I see what people mean about the ever-present Aerosprays now. Last night 50% or more of every team was shiny chrome menaces to society. Someone remind me when and why Aeros got super popular??
Also I love it when I'm having a bad run, and get someone on my team who's obviously a squadder...and then they turn out to be the biggest disappointment out of the four of us
Personal best moment:
Starfish, lower area by my spawn. Opposing squid thinks he has me cornered, spams curling bomb rush. I hop over one, jink around the rest, flank and splat him as he surfs in behind the bombs...then turn to remove his teammate who surfed in behind him. He stayed salty about that for two more matches.
Roller who was on my team the previous match was an opponent the following one on Humpback (which we here at home call Snapback Thumbtack for lulz). I went to go drop down and splat her from behind, and failed. Kill cam shows me my intended target 'bagging and doing a little spin. I was proper pissed for like
30 seconds after that
and then thought about it some more. She was a fairly good teammate the previous match - probably a Ranker, since she went for splats and not ground, and spent more time repopping than I did. Plus she'd booyah back at me. So in retrospect I think it was more of a LOL, YOU TRIED than a LOL, I WIN. I sent her a friend request later...after mowing through her and one of her teamos (another Aero) who'd both popped me that match. LOL GUISE U TRIED).
Troublesome Friend and I also found a fellow party squid quite by accident. Good E-Liter user, stand-up guy imho. I'd found TF on Humpback (his Baller is easy to spot since if he sees me he'll stop rolling and just hop up and down) and initiated a party-in-passing...and then saw the laser homing in from behind and to my right. Moved my partying self into the line of fire as a NO DON'T SHOOT, HE'S A FRIEND maneuver. E-Liter joined right in and a fun time was had by all =p
~GOOD TIMES~
