USH'S MATRIX GAME- General Discussion

well the new combat system looks ok I just thought 5 actions per round was to much

Well, anyone planning to run at speed will still be taking five actions so be careful.

Will there ever be a time when some players are in combat time and others are in normal time?

Possibly... so long as they are not affecting each other.

Of course.

Oh boy, I wish I had a scanner, because there was a comic strip in yesterday's paper I thought you all would like ^_^ I don't know how many of you know of/read Foxtrot, but it's my favorite comic strip. The main character, Jason, is obsessed with sci-fi and computers and the like, and they always have stuff about Lord of the Rings and Star Wars and the Matrix and yesterday's was hilarious. This is what it reads:

Jason: Paige liked "Return of the King", Mother!
Mom: So?
Jason: So what if she's just the tip of the iceberg?! What if everyone thinks it's great?! What if being a Lord of the Rings fanatic becomes, you know...MAINSTREAM?!...I guess I can go back to "Star Wars".
Mom: Star what?

😄

To get their predictions sorted before the third Assignment!

Well guys about assignment number 2:

It went pretty smoothly, except for the second floor flight with Ni-Zahn his goons. I'll try to keep my head with it a bit more next Fight

some pointers:

- Rex, Ush might have already said it but I'll say it again: shooting 6 bursts at a target is not allowed (atleast according to Ush)
- Dexx: try to remain focussed to where we are, I read everything that is posted in combat because it can matter a lot
- All gunners: WATCH YOUR AMMO, some ppl still find themselves without ammo in the middle of a fire fight, that can cause seriously problems for the whole team, counting it ain't that hard
- GENERAL NOTE: Read what the others have done, no need to attack someone who has just been killed before, or attacking the same cop with 3 ppl when you have enough different targets

I was wondering how did ppl think the talk went? I think it went fairly well

You can shoot six bursts, it just doesnt help in any way. Adds style though.

more than six*

heh, I'm guilty of that myself...lesson learned: running up stairs without first checking to see what's waiting for you = BAD IDEA.

I think it went pretty well, considering the sheer number of bad guys we were up against...

It wasnt that bad to read. THe only infuriating thing was all those 'I'll shooot the goons on the west side', and Ush having to say 'but there are no goons there'. Musta bin more infuriating for him.

Heh, well, I am not inclined to be a hardass about things, apprecating that not everone here is a hardcore rper. But I will have to remind people that comments like "I'll go help Cloud" when you are two floors below him I cannot possibly interpret for you.

As for ammo... it is burst fire that normally depletes ammo fast. Best way to keep track of bursts is to remember nearly all weapons that burst fire have enough ammo for ten bursts! Ten is easy to remember. So the norm if fighting to the 'max' would be to fire six bursts, four bursts. reload, repeat. Six bursts can attack two targets with an even roll, four bursts can really nail a single guy.

The Glock 18 is the exception; it carries 11 bursts.

And that one extra burst can really come in handy 🙂

Hmm. the name 'Glock' just isnt cool enough for me. Youi stil up for that fight tm?

It sounds cool though ya know? kinda rolls off the tongue........ g-l-o-c-k

I personally think that desert eagles kick ass! I mean bad-ass gun bad-ass name! Hell even agents like them!!

Yeah but only cos if they had anything else they would be unstoppable.

well about 6 bursts on one target being illegal, that's what ush told me, and style or no style it's foolish and I will yell at Rex if he tries it again

You CAN fire 6 bursts at one but it would still only give you +3 to hit, the same as 4 bursts, so I tend to tell people not to do it.

It justs wastes ammo, since you're not getting anymore bonuses on firing extra bursts, so what's the point unless you're shooting at more than one target? That's how I see it.
