Are they?
Do they show how good a player you are, or do they show how you cant work with a team. I get asked it a lot, and it bugs me. Someone will be pissed off at me and be like WANNA GO 1V1?!!. or "IF YOU LOOSE TO ME IN A 1V1 THEN UR NOT AS GOOD AS ME"
Is this true? i would just like some clarification. In my opinion, i think one versus ones are pointless and don't serve a purpose at all.
-
pointless. in this game it doesn't matter how good you are by yourself. what's more important is how well you play with a team. teams win games, not single players.
-
1vs1 shows some skill, but it doesn't show if you are a better player,
-
There's more than one skill... yes?
-
Rcon is %30 of team games. :(
-
I would say it is far from pointless, but certainly does not factor in other team-based skills and factors. There are a lot of 1-on-1 'mini-confrontations' in a normal team game..
-
1v1's are only for fun in my opinion. Sometimes people take it seriously when i do 1v1 them but then I just leave if they do, its more for fun. UNLESS its like a 1v1 tournament :).

i say blitz brings up a great point
Thanks man
-
In my opinion there just to have fun, but most of the time they arent :(
-
I reckon 1vs1 show how good you are whithout help. Theyre not really very important. and someone might play better with other popele so mite not do so great in 1vs1. It your opinion and how you find them relevant.
-
Theproblem with 1-on-1s is that if ou find a place where you can see alot of the map, if you see something move, you KNOW that it is the enemy. In the same way, if you see something and start to follow it back to your base, then you KNOW that you can't be killed unless he turns around. This is particularly annoying in elimination as the only onjective is to seek and destroy, if, say, in jump you go opposite ways, then it will take FOREVER to win the match.

Thsi rule applies in normal games as well becasue if someone is moving, then its probably your enemy (also you can tell by the colour)
-
yes, but if you're folllowing them, then you don't need to cover your back as you know that there is no one else.
Also, there is a quote button: use it
-
lol i use the quick reply soz. at the end of the day its your opinion. if u wanna count them as important, do so. if not then oh well.
-
lol i use the quick reply soz.
There's still a quote button.

pointless and a waste of time

Yeah, they really need a personal mute/vote mute function in this game

Post removed

so there already is a mute thing. good good now i can have a peaceful game uninterrupted by a bunch of 10 year olds wnaitng 1vs1s. gdgd.
-
Ah I forgot about the ignore, but a server-side mute where no one can see what they type at all would be neat

^ basically sums it up. 'nuff sed.

bind "l" "ignore all"That code is my best friend.
-
in my opinion 1v1's are dumb unless you know who youre playing and you are just messing around especially when you 1v1 somebody and they pick a map youve never played before then you figure out the map halfway through the game and youre already down 25-30 to not even 5 thats not cool....
-
I love 1v1's just because they make the other person feel bad when they lose.
-
Evil spook >:(
-
unless ur on the other end of it spook :o
-
Hah.
-
Spook has the best aim I think I've ever seen, I'm sure hes rarely on "the other end of it".
-
so rude to joke around like that. you could really hurt somebodies feelings.
-

The anthrax should arrive any day now...

Personal threat and name-calling. Something needs to be done, or I'm not sure if I can check the forums anymore for my own safety. Stop harshing me please.
-
lmfao.

it was a joke...duh

1 vs 1 is good for fun and also it is "kinda" good for new players. This way they can get to at least look at the map a little...before they take some paint to the face (for ex. a team game you have a better chance of getting shot).
And when I know sometimes people (even in different clans) sometimes teach people new tricks if they are losing really badly. But 1 vs 1 is not a way to prove if your clan is better than someone elses or especially prove if your better than someone.
All it shows is you can either line really good or can cap really fast on a new players.
-
IMO the only time to 1v1 another player is when you're facing a player with more experience than you (as long as they aren't one of them know-it-all ego driven fools who think they own the game and everyone in it.) This is a good way to get better, cause facing random nubs by server hopping that you already know you'll mop the floor with won't help you develop skill or give you any pleasure.

had a newb come into a pub and ask everyone for a 1v1 saying he'll raped everybody kinda made me mad. raped em with pgp. to many darn newbs in the game who think there some kind of pros.1v1 don't really prove anything. Teamwork is what gets it done. "Recon"

RECON TIME !!
to the newbs, it makes them feel big when they win. theyre new to the game so they probs dont really know much about how 1vs1 are not as important as 2+vs2+ etc. but thats their opinion and even if it is completely wrong, should be respected.
slightly.
kind of.
