Tweekbee being AK's buddy? Wow. Anyway, Tweekbee, why haven't you been near the IRC in the past 4 months? You IMed me tonight, I didn't see it -- probably you wanted to link me to this.

And yes, Renegade Alert maps were far better than the Renegade ones for many reasons. And the Reborn ones were atrocious. One of the only maps that was good (and one of the only maps at all for that matter) was Siege and that would crash the server so it was never played on.

Edit to fix a potentially angering nickname I have for Tweekbee.

Helicopters aren't invincible at all. If you use anti-aircraft weapons, like Mammoth Tanks, Rocket Soldiers, Tesla Tanks, Shock Troopers, Volkov, etc... They're really easy to take out. The only time helicopters are even remotely useful is when they attack in groups; unlike Renegade where they have unlimited ammunition.

State some reasons, preferably with logic to them, why you don't like the levels that were made for RA. There needs to be more than just "They were crap" because a lot of what you say is complete and utter crap, but at the least I'll give you a reason why it's crap and why it makes me think you're one of the most stupid members this forum has had in the last year.

well, for one. The only map I played, was way to damn open. It was almost flat the whole way through with hills thrown here and there. After that map, I purged the mod from my computer. and Soldier, I told you, I played that mod long before I even knew that ACK was a compulsive jackass. Better than the Westwood maps? Bullshit, westwood maps took strategy, skill, and teamwork to dominate effectively, but even the lone soldier can win the game for his team. Why did I bring up APB? To Fuck with ACK, any halfwit would see that, I just wanted to screw with him some more. I thought I would get some entertainment out of it, and I was right. Also, its very amazing that whatever ACK doesnt like is automatically deemed stupid, or an idiot.

So you don't even know the name of it, much less the fact that it's modeled after Red Alert and the European terrain it set in. Yes, that must make it suck. Is that your only reason? Oh wait, in your poorly written paragraph I can see that you've tried constructing yet another argument against the levels. You've implied that they take no strategy and teamwork to win. Since you're unable to use your brain, or unwilling, I will go ahead explain why (Yet again) you're an idiot.

First, to actually get to the enemy base and do significant damage requires either more than one tank or a commando class unit such as Volkov or Tanya. Second, the time it takes to get across the level means that tanks often meet before they're in the enemy base, unless they use strategy to evade the normal paths and forge their own. The mountains exist not to block unit travel; only to route it into easier paths of movement. So it's not uncommon to find tanks climbing over the hills and the shallow cliffs in order to get to a lesser traveled area, making it easy to access the enemy base. I'll list some more reasons when you post again, assuming you can keep coming up with these poorly written responses.

I'm more surprised that you think any halfwit would figure this out immediately. It was obvious that your intent was to harass, which you not only failed at but were completely and utterly transparent with. You are not clever, nor are you funny or witty. You are a boring, dull kid who uses phrases from people like me (Yeah, like you actually find entertainment in arguing with me like I always have, and have always proclaimed, with watching you expose yourself as a fool every time you type in this forum) to try and bolster their pathetic attempt at writing a forum reply.

If you thought that nobody figured out what you were trying to do until the magical moment when you just tried to explain it, then I don't honestly know what to say. But I do think this graemlin expresses my emotions for how stupid you are better than I can. Thumbs Up

I didn't like the Helicopter system just because the short ammount of ammo. That's just me though. I like Renegade alert.
There was plenty of enough filler left for me to keep busy with. I really loved Fjord. That was such a great map along with Zama. I really wish they were released with the last version.

"ACK"

If you thought that nobody figured out what you were trying to do until the magical moment when you just tried to explain it, then I don't honestly know what to say.


Of course I knew that you were aware of my intentions from the very next post after mine. I was just being an asshole. You know? That thing you are every day. Do you think calling me stupid every time I post something contradictary to your statements is actually hurting my feelings? Do you have any other insults besides attempting to ridicule someone's intelligence? Or maybe it just makes you feel like your E-penis is bigger than it actually is. In any case, you might as well stop, because its overplayed.

By the way, if you recall, I played your mod for about 5 minutes remember? Why would I bother to memorize the map's name? I'm not going to re-download, and re-install just so I can get my facts straight on something so trivial.

I insult your intelligence because you have little. Finally showing that you can write somewhat properly in the English language isn't exactly bolstering your position, either. The only thing I derive from our interaction online is humor and even then you provide very little because of how boring and predictable your responses are. If, even once, you had the imagination and creativity to come up with a new take on an old insult, or at the very least attempt to make yourself look like less of an idiot; you'd find that you would be treated a lot differently.

But that's okay, you don't want to change, and I just want to belittle you for being what you are - a simple minded fool who thinks he can judge a total conversion in its entirety from five minutes of gameplay. Even I spent more than five minutes playing Reborn before I came to the conclusion, as did many others, that it was horrible. It took about three hours of playing with it to understand what was wrong, why it was dysfunctional and garbage-like, and that alone was enough to hate it.

Five minutes is nothing, idiot.

Gbull, no offense but you played one map only, and I'm betting you never downloaded any of the fan maps. There's more quality fan maps then total maps for any incarnation of Reborn ever, just as a side note.

Also, Westwood maps all involved the same basic layouts, which I will now highlight, with one example apiece to get the idea across.

Layout one: "There is a path from here to there for the tanks, and a tunnel going the other way for infantry" (Canyon)
Layout two: "There is a wider path with 3 branches due to placed obstacles, and a tunnel going the other way for infantry" (Field)
Layout three: "Symmetrical, tiberium in middle and 3 paths directly from base with some infantry paths in the middle" (Mesa)

The bases had the same basic layouts. "Everything, base defenses" "Everything, except base defenses" This leads to basically a grind-it-out between vehicles in one small area, the occasional APC or stealth tanks around one side, etc. with infantry dicking around away from everything else really and being largely ineffectual against vehicles-- except a couple infantry being very effective, a huge gap compared to the rest. In terms of keeping the infantry and tanks fighting in one area, Under takes the cake, but that map sadly only has one base entrance for tanks due to it falling into map template number two.

Most Renegade Alert maps had at least two tank-exists from each base at the very least.

At the time there was one server, and I didn't like the map. So I stopped playing. Before that I tried Reborn, and I didn't like it, so I figured it was more of the same. The part of your mod I played was crap. Happy? If not whatever. How is it Chronojam can explain things without being an asshole and mister Aircraftkiller cannot?

Haha! As posted above, you mostly don't post like an asshole, but others (AKA "Great and all mighty" N00bcraftkiller) cannot. Rocked Over

ACK can bich about one poly out of place or a "concrete" slab for 10 pages worth of posts...just amazing. Huh

Atleast, Chronojam explains in detail why he doesn't like it and displays proof then moves on... Thumbs Up
