[QUOTE=krail9;33751252]I discjump all the time on soldier but rarely on pathfinder because I feel it takes way too much health.
It's still about speed, it's just different. Just like in q3, if you stand still, you die. There's also rocket-jumping and a heavy focus on aiming skill. It's easy to draw parallels between the two.[/QUOTE]
you're supposed to conc jump with the grenades, with egocentric you only lose 150hp
can someone explain what "shazbot" is all about?

It's like saying "shit", it's a tribes inside joke kinda.
Hey guys, just got a key. Any tips I should know before sliding into my death, like what is the preferred class for beginners like me?

Long story short it's a curse.
[QUOTE=Donut Hill;33754682]Hey guys, just got a key. Any tips I should know before sliding into my death, like what is the preferred class for beginners like me?[/QUOTE]
Well, you only have access to two classes at first. The soldier is probably the most basic class, and the easiest to start with. At first learning to ski is more important than learning to shoot. Get used to your weapon, and leading the target. I would recommend getting the additional ammo for your primary weapon early on.
Above all.
Do not stand still.

I'm pretty sure it originated on Mork and Mindy to be used as a euphemism for a curse word.
Holy fuck Doombringers are OP.
It's the Heavy equivalent of the Sentinel, only that Doom takes WAAAAAAAAAAAY less effort to hit people from range, and, oh no, someone got onto your ledge? No problem! Rip them to shreds with your chaingun!
Sentinels have to be careful with aiming, and if someone gets close, You either need to fuck off out of there or hope you can kill them before they land enough shots to kill you.
It needs a massive fucking nerf.
I'm a Jumper and I eat Doombringers for breakfast.
I'm a Ranger and I eat Cock for breakfast.
Ranger is the only class that I'm actually good at...
I play soldier.
Mind you, That post was probably rage fuelled, as I had just saw my first doombringer, and it just sat on one of the spawns of TDM drydock and spammed the saber launcher.
I have enough tokens to buy Technician
Should I?
I just got into beta!
Got pathfinder and it is terrible so far. I can, at best, hit 160KPH as opposed to the normal 120 I get which really isn't worth it compared to the additional health and power that comes with soldier. I wish I had just bought a sniping role or technician or something with armor.

160 is much more than 120, also you must be doing something wrong, with impact nitrons and skiing well I can usually hit around 200 and stay that way, depending on the map.
How do you use the nitrons? I press my pack key but nothing happens. Am I missing something here?

You gotta hit the grenade key, with is by default the 'F' key.
Fuck yes I just got into the beta! I thought they would never pick me.

Why did you wait to be picked? You can get keys easily through their Facebook page.

I always switch my nade key to 'G', for it's much more comfortable for me. It also fits, since Grenade begins with 'G'.

This thread is also littered with unused ones.

How much worse is the light spinfusor compared to the regular one?
[QUOTE=Dirf;33759778]How much worse is the light spinfusor compared to the regular one?[/QUOTE]
They're practically the same.
[QUOTE=krail9;33759813]They're practically the same.[/QUOTE]
Awesome. Looks like Pathfinder will be my next class.
I think the light spinfuisor has a smaller splash radius, but a higher direct hit damage.
Holy crap! I just got done with my first two ctf games. This game is amazing. Also I keep on laughing at SHAZBOT.
I think they added a new medal in....
High speed grab.

Refer to this chart: [url]http://daekesh.dyndns.org/weapondamage.php[/url]
Difference is that the light spinfusor has a faster ROF but deals less damage. Its effectiveness is the same when deal with lights and mediums but the regular spinfusor is -1 kill shot away when against heavies.

I just realized they increased the tokens you get from first win to 100 from 50.
