Skill for me?

Work in teams, know when your allie needs help and also know when someone could help you.

Comunication, a few jokes, quick discussions what to do next, what does who where when?

This is teamwork, not skill. They're both vital, but they're completely different things.

w0dka wrote on Thu, 27 September 2007 09:10

Knowing the game, when do what, what is in this situation useless? Which unit is perfect for which job?

hit that you want to hit, know how to drive/shoot.

Everything in this part is vital for 1v1s. And if they constitute skill, how can you claim that 1v1s don't require skill?

1 V 1's do need skill, but they don't make you better than a person who say, cannot pistol like you, but can play as part of a team in larger game.

1 v 1's do not prove EVERYTHING. (Sorry Troop, they DO NOT. No, really.)

Thread over.

Edit - Yep. Spoony's right (Post below this one)

pretty much, yeah. They prove skill, but they don't prove what it takes to win bigger games, which is skill AND teamwork. They also don't mean you've won the argument unless the argument is "I'm better than you at 1v1s"

lol public server n00bs..


n00b refering to players who are new or behave like they are new to a game. usually in a insulting way. Why you want to insult me?

And whats wrong with public games, sure i would prefer if anymone work together but a public server offers you the oppurtunity for quick action, a game with a huge battle, everywhere action.


@Spoony

I think teamwork is skill. Why? You need to learn how to work with your team. When just say they will handle it, trust them. Work so they can help you and you help them. A team is not a bunch of guys who screw your work or don't get things done that you wouldn'T get done.

Simple thing:

Field, Your're GDI Nod filled Field with Arts, Lights maybe a tech out there. You're Team decide to retake field with Med'S covered by a mlrs maybe. A fakeion is planted, hopefully one nod guy is retreating you rush out.

Situation a)

You' re Med gets focused,
you can retreat and repair,
rush to a enemy and try to C4 him or
drive to a friendly tank to repair it from behind.

Situation b)

You're Friends Med gets focused
you can just fire at the enemy hope he fix it himself/retreat
block the hits from the enemys with your med to get him a few extra seconds
hop out and repair him


in all two situations you have to learn what is the right choice.
Adn don'T start with TS2 ... vital seconds.... hectic screaming...X want to say Y what to do... all this isn't good for overal performance.

But you're right with 1on1 it takes skill, but i personally didn't like the way . changed my mind a bit.


Thanks.

I think (always have done) 1v1 skill is far more important that any other skill in Renegade. When I played Ren to be better then the rest I was always willing to 1v1 people to test my skill.

The reason I think 1v1 skill is more important is because if you can't think for yourself and win the game using your tactics then whats the point trying to play online. Anyone, even a newbie can get a tank and join the battlefield to hit a building, that in my opinion doesn't really mean shit, yeah ok its teamplay but said person is acting on what he sees everyone else doing. That im my book isn't skill.

At the end of the day, skill is skill and teamplay is teamplay. If you're in a large game, being skillful by yourself isn't going to win the game.

Im not saying that is not possible, it is very possible that a single good player has tilt the game into there teams favor. However, In a large game like 10v10 and up, 1 single person does not win the game no matter how good they are. You might be godlike but if 10 people come at you you might pistol a few of them but you will die.

Actually it is possible to beat the game with 1 person. I guess it really depends on the skill of all of the other players. This one time it was the same people, it was a 15 vs 15 player game one time and thhis guy, "xii", had like MVP*6. He musta been really good, but he could have benn hacking. Sarcasm Not sure weather he was or not.

MVP*6 in 15v15 -> spent a lot of time in arts or mrls probably. That requires no skill whatsoever.

Sneaking with a tech doesn't necessarely require skill either. Remember the quote Spoony posted "I'm hiding behind a rock"?

What and this Xil dude won the match single handed.. No support from his team whatsoever in a 15v15. Very very unlikely.

No he was not in an arty or MRLS, he also was not sneaking with a tech either. He was playing really good. I think that everybody (even me Blush )was a nOOB, and like I said earlier he could have been hacking. If he was, he musta been playing it well. But no joke he had like MVP*6 wehn I finally left the game.

It may not be too hard to sneak in with a tech, but to actually DO something with it, instead of getting killed...
That takes alittle more skill.

I haven't ever played a formal 1 v 1, but I'm going to assume the quick thinking necessary to jump from repairing a building, to keeping the enemy occupied, and then a moment later demolishing one their own structures, would require quite a bit of skill.

And SoQReal, quit harping at "public server 'n00bs'" . You know, some people just play for the fun of it, and enjoy playing on a server that has a variety of skill levels. To me, that's what makes this game so fun to play.
