Who here plays.

List your favourite maps, class and your playing style.

Myself, I like Mountain Ambush, Bridge and Swamp Raid.

I'll play Squad Leader or Automatic Rifleman, or if I am on broadband and feeling nasty, I'll grab myself an M-24.

Playing style - teamwork, all the way. I wish there was a way to record games, because there was a group of us that played on POStatistics Aus Dedicated EVERY night for about 5 hours, and those 5 hours were exclusively Mountain Ambush. Spend that much time playing with the same group and teamwork gets good. Did I mention that teamwork is good?

Played before, hated it. Stupid nuclear hand-grenades... It wasn't long before I used the same tactic, and got nearly a dozen kills a round...

Even CS is more fun for me.

What, you mean hand grenades that have a realistic damage capacity and shrapnel radius?

You want nuclear hand grenades, play the Rainbow 6 series. Those ones are just damn scary, especially in Raven Shield when you can't even fucking HEAR THEM LAND anymore.

May favorite maps are Radio Tower, Weapons Cache SE and normal, Pipeline, and finally Mountain Ambush.

My prefered weapons depend on what map. Open areas such as RT and MA I perfer M203 followed by M-16 or Ak. Inclosed spaces I like the RPK or auto-M-16.

I love to work in teams when posible. But I have to be able to trust teammates. I can't tell you how often I get killed while I was being "Covered" by a teammate that wasn't there anymore.

My playing name is "Darhegoes"(Dargos was taken by someone else...pissed me off)

Are you talking about from around corners? Yep. that kind of pissed me off as well. Seems to be better since the 1.6 patch. How about the "Tac Nuc" M.I.L.E.S. training nades? Those are friggen outrageouse with the 1000 meter kill radius

Bridge, Insurgent Camp, Radio Tower.

I like to play as either sniper class, just a plain rifleman, or fireteam leader.

My style is usually relatively aggressive. Unlike most people, I prefer 5.56mm over M67s, I rarely use my frags. When I snipe, I'm usually on the move and rarely go prone and deploy the bipod.

I also play Mountain Ambush and Weapons Cache SE now and then. I try to play on HomeLAN servers whenever possible, and I go by "JNeophyte".

*looks around suspiciously* BUMP!!!!!

The 1.6 patch was not quite a month ago IIRC. Adds in Radio Tower and bullet penetratation, among other things.
