best players over the years

willeh · Post by **willeh** » Fri May 20, 2011 12:13 pm

no doubt you were a top player corey-
it's easy to get frags when a player is moved up and can anticipate when and where people will be comming from. most of the players listed were on very successful teams. i think iorio did a very good job of maintaining a steady frag count even when our team was backed to our first which was more often than not.
all i was saying was that for the ammount of time he played i thought it was pretty impressive how quickly he became a top tier player. i can only imagine if he started playing when the game was released for retail or in 3.1b. because of this i think so many people deserve recognition, throughout my years of playing the game i've seen different players become unstoppable and unstoppable players get dominated. it really all depends on how much time the individual played at one time, the team, and the ammount of competetive teams that were playing at the time.

Heavies- Dylan, Dylan
Rifles- Dylan, Dylan
3rd Rifles- Dylan
Lights- Dylan
Snipers- Dylan
MGs- Dylan, LAN_Man
In-Game Leaders- Dylan, Habib

that would be a stacked roster... fo-sho.

hi guys.

thread was a good read, a lot of names that I haven't thought about in years! impressed I actually got a good full paragraph of hatred in there somewhere, which is cool, I was a little shit at fragmart; still had a blast though. Also, not sure about your claims to me being sub-par at that lan, from what I remember we won that tournament..

these are the peeps that stood out to me:

plex, strife, ackpth, scorch, oxossi, profiction, max, bleargh, marshall_d, royA, darkhorse

and I'm probably biased here, but ace and ivan never stopped impressing me when we played together.

lol, it's cool bro, I was just post-traumatic-roid-raging because you were a huge dick to me leading up to the LAN and then ended up being a huge anti-social bowl cut nerd (no offense). It was a really long time ago, but I think you were just a massive tool to Fleener and I when we asked you if you wanted to play with us. No hard e-feelings though.

And yeah, didn't at all remember you being the jesus-on-wheels player rolling over everyone no-scoping on LAN like you were online (I was pretty awful @ fragmart too), and Ghostrider carried your team (and was a nice and sociable person to boot).

Glad to see you found your way to 1911, you should try 12manning sometime. Also, legit player list.

oh and dan i wasnt at the last socal but im sure you were your usual self haha that was one thing that could be expected out of any of those lans, you would be consistently difficult to play against on any map any time (especially fucking anzio)

i think the socal 6 finals going middle against you with iorio on axis half was probably one of the most frustrating halves of dod ive ever played on lan, i couldn't touch you or ron that half haha i believe i was a solid 20-30 with a kar.

Clearly your reply demonstrates your "no hard e-feelings" stance. Doesn't bother me one way or the other how you "e-feel" about stuff from 8 years ago - although I do appreciate knowing that I left such a strong impression.

I was just being silly, it was one of 10,000 e-interpersonal interactions in 10 years playing this stupid game, however memorable. Like when I fake died, or when Liah tried to rape guilt me.

Sears pretty much took on remaking 1911 exactly for that reason. He told me that one day he had an epiphany that in order for people to fully appreciate his comedic genius, he had to have the ability to drop the gifs and jpegs, and that the guise of DoD nostalgia would be the perfect ruse. Well played sir.

I know the most of you guys don't like brazilian players very much but as some of you do I'll share some of the best brazis that ever played DoD (some of then, even managed to achieve good results at USA leagues).

Lights: BitchX, MnsTr, ACHETTA, xe0n, SillyHand, mancha, espanhoL, stanley (played for super! at CPL Summer - WSVG 2006)

Heavies: CHEVSKY, bud, pinga1, zingaum, THRASHER

Snipers: StorM, mazura, uboote

That's pretty much it...

He wasn't banned on CAL for cheating... He was banned due to his eloquent behavior. Some scrim admin thought that he cheated on a scrim and sent his demos to CAL, which suspended him preventively (quite the same what happened with BitchX but he was mature enough to deal with the admins and by the end of the investigation his suspension was removed as he wasn't cheating after all). Instead of dealing the situation politely he went to their iRC channel demanding his unban. After not get an "prompt answer" he started cursing all admins that were present at the moment and voila: ended up suspended. He acted like a jerk and in my opinion the admins were right on suspending him.

I'm now playing some 12mans with USA people and I got negged, cursed or even bothered time to time just because I'm playing from a place 1000 miles away from you. Some people can handle this but the majority can not. And SillyHand is included on the group of people who can't. I'm not his counselor and I didn't approve his behavior but lets face it that these actions aren't the most pleasant.

Cheers

the last socal the team was kyran, ryanemo, specops, john gale, menace and iorio. i dont think they played you guys on harrington though so you may be thinking of the previous socal or the x3o when we played you guys on harrington and i actually got to snipe at a lan for once hahaha

Yeah ignore that Cass. Since the NA/SA separation happened looks like some people forgot how to play against SA teams. Its just general whining, and they feel they have to play with their binds after killing you. Its really surprising there wasn't a separate division back when DoD was big. I suspected them to combine the NA/SA teams once it got to the point at which it is now. The community as a whole has matured ALOT from back in 2004-05; you just still have the general asshats that attempt to ruin the fun. Looking forward to seeing you in more 12 mans Cass : D

I would choose never to play a south american team 100% percent of the time. even if you get around the ping difference which really isn't the issue - then you have to adapt to unnecessarily slow tactics, the whole experience is just an awful one.

roy · Post by **roy** » Sun May 29, 2011 2:07 am

whats good everyone! glad to see everyone is still hanging in there. heres my vote for best...

1st team

sniper
marshall drummin - At the peak of the game, him and beas carried hb over x6 at summer cpl.
rifle
dorito : best player on the best team for a couple of years
kellen : i still remember the anzio hill hold at summer cpl. think he got 5 while last one standing. not 100% on that one
heavy
shiftypowers : a lot of heavies tried to emulate his style of running around with flawless aim destroying everything in site.
ninjuh : i went head to head against ninjuh in railcar once. i went 10-40 or something.
all-purpose
bleargh : probably 1 of the most underrated dod players. didn't get enough credit for being really good

2nd team
sniper
scorch : you could put him as a rifle as well but whatever gun he played, he always got good results

rifle
dyelife : he made everyone else better on the team. if it wasn't for time running out he would have an invite title over a very strong x6 squad
ackpth : 1 of the top rifles during the peak of the game.

heavy
profiction : one of the 1st matches i played in invite was against unsung heroes. propro dominated us dinkers.
max : could literally hold half of the map down with his aim and his brain.

all-purpose
shotgunbill : he played all 6 position and played them well

the rest
sniper : crus/tofu/moneyb/cypher

rifle : deadbeat/strife/cyan/maingoes

heavy : jdub/cableguy/seven/pie

all-purpose : shotgunderek/fusion/scrd
