Yo,
We need a light hearted topic here, so here goes.
Lets put down our thoughts on the most impressive new player to UT that we can think of. it does not have to be clan specific, but most likely wil be as you tend to know the guys in your own clan well. Also put down justification, as it makes for some fun reading :
My candidate would have to be [N]Revenge.
For those of you that do not know, he is extremely new to the FPS world.
When he first came on, he showed some promise, but after KOTR took him under his wing and showed him the ropes, he started to move up the ranks at a fast pace.
Nowdays, his LG is deadly, if he sees you before you see him u better hope your head is screwed on tight :P His flak too can be deadly, and his game is going from strength to strenght. he is kicking the butts of some seasoned players, and beats me some night, even though I have been playing 5 years :( (ok, not a good benchmark, but still).
So hats off to your Revenge and I look forward to seeing what you can do in the future. Now u gotta start timing the shield :P
cya
Yup, Rev kicks all ass nowadays.
GM and ZT definately deserves some noddy badges in the clan categories.
Some new guys even go from total noobs to 100% flack accuracy, even when you're behind them... overnight...
damn impressive.

In terms of Onslaught my vote would go to ::KO::@. He's been getting good scores in some tough games. I'd very much like to see how he performs in the more structured environment of a clan match. :)
EDIT: How could I forget! Scrye has also been showing some definite improvement in Onslaught. He even uses vehicles to capture power nodes! ;)
Why are you telling people that? :/
But you can't deny my node defense is top class :p

LOL KO:Nameless and KO:@ are different ppl. My vote would go with KO::Nameless. He has made huge improvement and is pretty good with the LG.
2 cents..
My vote goes too *drum roll* ::KO::Sex
Very new to the game. Started a clan within the first month of ever playing, becoming a great player on a less than fantastic gaming machine and he gets smashed on ZT LANs. Whats not to like?
If you ask me, then I would have to say:
Nautill1an
Only recently was he able to beat me.
WP GG :)
(I taught him well)

Me. No question.
Hey Guys,
I don't know how long Plato has been playing, but i think he is really doing well. You really need to watch the guy or he could own u 15 - 0 .
Also a great guy to chat with,

You've been around -just- too long to qualify. :P
My vote would have to go to Revenge, he has shown the most improvement in 2006 so far. Well done bud! :)
I'd have to say that lately nevets and bean over the time that I have been away from ut, they are rocking now! Good going guys!

My vote goes to Toppie.
I take my hat of to him for learning
UT in such a short time.
dedication....
the things he has done for some
of us will never be forgotten
i am proud to have him as a friend and a clan mate.

Um.... I didn't even know half these guys were noobs... wow! Here I was thinking, "geez, I'm pretty good for matching up to these old plyers in such a short time...." now you're telling me that such leet players like Revenge and Bean are noobs!
In that case... probably them two, but if we're going for completely new noobs then either 4lien or Nameless, but eish, I don't really know. Maybe GM<Gorain>MF?
Revenge
25 Jul 2006, 23:50
Tx boys... Thinking bout guys thats been here for a shorter period of time than myself, my vote will go for Nameless as well!!! He has improved a heck of allot on those long range weapons, and not half as predictable as he was that first night I played him! And heck, the guy's even pretty good with timing shields lately...

nameless FTW...
ohh and thanx PH for that vote there buddy
Who qualiifies as a n00b? A new player (playing like 6 months or less) or a player who always kinda sucked and got better recently? Or both?
GM<Jaymac>MF
26 Jul 2006, 09:58
I was wondering the same thing. :)
[N]Haja
26 Jul 2006, 10:05
You're both noobs :)
I would say it is a player who is new to UT. It is not derogitory, but ppl that have not been playing for long, say under a year. In the greater scheme of things, 1 year is pretty new?
Also, as you say, it can go for aplyer who has sucked or gotten better in leaps and bounds.
A year seems like long time to play 1 game. =] 5 years is another story altogether! :D
Me Me Me Me.... vote for me!!!! :)
this just means i'll have to stamp my name into the unreal community real hard!!! hehe
.....wow my first post :P

Me. No question.
hhehehehehehe gotta agree you wrote the manual on ONS!
korpse ftw, kthxgg end of story.
Of all the "new" players, nobody else can hold their own against me in Roughinery.

Yes... I must agree, under that definition I am definitely still a noob. In fact, I started playing UT almost one year ago exactly. In fact, the join date under my name for these forums puts me down as a one year and one month old UT player, and I joined the forums quite a while before I got ADSL.
I'd have to say that lately nevets and bean over the time that I have been away from ut, they are rocking now! Good going guys!
Thanks Mac :)
I have been playing for some time now just don't always have a connection to go to ....oh and how could i forget my trust 56k damn i miss those days....NOT :)
Later
