You played twice yesterday - how much "more" are you planning on playing?

The last you game you joined I was playing with my kid and his friend.

I have to say, even though I have a 65" t.v. I can not stand split screen. I feel like I"m half blind.

[CYMBOL]

I joined a room a couple of weeks ago with one guy in it. We ended up playing one on one CTF - it was obvious he was an awesome flyer. After some strategy, persistence, and a little bit of luck, I got two flag caps and he got none. He added me to his friends list after the game.

He's a very good player and is one of those players that rules the skies.

One of the other players from his clan invited me to go into the "tryouts" for their clan (guess they thought I was decent enough to make it).

I politely declined.

When the blu-ray (Blu-Clan) was started for Warhawk, people who wanted to join were allowed to join.

When I became the Clan Leader - I only had one pre-requisite to join the Blu-Clan, enjoy playing Warhawk and be a decent person (hey, I don't have time for @sses). Colorado has the same attitude as the current Clan Leader.

I find tryouts pretensious (I'm not calling these guys pretensious cause I don't know them) - but I find "tryouts" to be the epitome of nerdy self-righteousness.

Maybe the Blu-Clan doesn't have the "best of the best" players (although I think we have some really good players - and I held my own against these guys when playing with/against them last night) - but the thing I like best about the Blu-Clan is: we have fun when we play.

Hopefully, when Warhawk trophies come out we can get some of our old players back for a bit (Copywriter, Borrik, Movies3, dadds, liz89. . . . hell, Colorado has been MIA for a while too! ).

Looking forward to the next game with the Blu-Clan.

I thought Colorado was the clan leader, who is it now

On a different note, I have finally reached 10,000 points. Too bad it's another 5,000 until the next rank up. Trophies should help that come a little quicker I suppose My KDR has crept up to 0.94 as well, a little more patience and I might see 1.00

I obviously have some work cut out for me, so when is the next Blu-clan game???

Anybody down for friday evening?

Can we get on a ranked server too? I'm trying to get my rank up. Need another 35 points for the next level. I think it's the 3rd or 4th.

I meant that: I was the Clan Leader and "Colorado has much of the same attitude as the current Clan Leader" - meaning "as" he fills that position.

Hope that clarifies things. He is the Clan Leader and as far as I know, that's not changing.

35 points! Go play one game on 4 on 4 - you should be able to get that in one game.

What time Friday? Saturday afternoons are best for me.

[MacDaddyOJack]

Sat afternoons are pretty good for me too. I should be on tomorrow evening as well.

[DaMexiRican]

I thought I was in a ranked room last time I played, but I guess not. It didn't change. Idk, after 5 PST works for me. Im not sure about this saturday. My sis called me last night and said they're having a bbq for my nephew before he leaves to iraq again and I can't remember if she said it was this saturday or next saturday. I wasn't really paying attention cause I was watching a movie.

I was on FIRE tonight!! Fantastic couple of games, small battles, plenty of players and me winning twice in a row. God I love this game!!!

Best shot of the night, taking out a jeep driver with the sniper gun while he drove full pelt across a bridge, woooo hooooo!

Ugh! I'm horrible with a sniper rifle. About useless. Don't know how you guys do it. Usually by the time I find a good shot (ie. someone standing still for a good 30 seconds); I've already been sniped by a real sniper.

I've been working on my flying. I'm surviving much longer in the air now. But getting better.

Any tips for sniping?

what do you guys use to fly sixaxis motion control, or analog sticks.

also, some tips on how to get out of a situation where a missle is locked on would be great.

Pro-Flight - Analog sticks.

This should help - it has been a HUGE help to me and works great.

Always take cover (don't stand out in the open) and constantly move between shots.

The rest is having a steady thumb. GL!

[DaMexiRican]

And sometimes if you see a guy hiding out at a certain base watch him. Usually they'll be like AI and go in a certain pattern. Then you could see where he is headed, line up a few spaces ahead of him and as soon as he walks into your crosshairs.....BAM!

Or do like I do and try to stay out of the warhawk! Then you don't get shot out of the air!


As for a Blu-Clan game

Friday would be bad for me.

Wednesday night and Saturday day are both a go for me. Just let me know

Point and shoot ...

or you could just practice... I'll help you practice if you want... perhaps a little one on one sniper action is on order.

i've hit someone in the back of there head while they were driving away with a flag to, haha its funny as heck... but try to think ahead of where there going and point, 100% aim helps as well as you can move faster.

EDIT: also... when I snipe people and there looking at me with a sniper I run side to side and when there in my cross hairs I just fire, hahha works if I time it right.
