FPS General

I'd probably go exploring. Rain forests, caves, mountains, nothing is inaccessible with that suit.

My FPS memories all start with CS 1.1. I had introduced a friend (lets call him Chris) to it and we could usually be found at the local PC arcade playing LAN games with the people there. He was a natural at the game and quickly picked up all the little quirks of the game from bunny hopping to no scope sniper shots and quick glitch reloads for the sniper rifles. Needless to say, even though I had started earlier, I was quickly overshadowed by his natural ability.

However, one day when we were playing a 4v4 clan match at the PC arcade, I quickly shot up in the ranks again. We were playing the standard de_dust map and were behind two rounds as CT. The prize for this match was for a month of free goodies at the PC arcade and it was BO15. The score was 5-3 going the other team's way and me and my friends were losing morale. Even the Chris we beginning to show signs of giving up. Being behind in rounds meant we were short on money and that round all I had was a Desert Eagle and a HE Grenade. As we were moving around the map, a teammate was killed under the bridge and I went to check it. Across the way was a T with a AWP strafing around trying to get off a shot. With Deagle in hand, I ducked in and out of boxes trying to line up a shot. Miraculously I pulled off a head shot from the other end of the bridge. Running to the body and grabbing his AWP, I managed to pick off one more from the back but died doing so. At this point however, my team saw that wasn't over and started to rally back. We ended up taking the match 8-7. WE lost the tournament but now we still talk about the miracle shot that pushed us to keep going during that round.

When me and my roommate at school use to play Combat Arms, the lag during the day was absolutly awful so we use to set an alarm for around 3-4 AM in order to play when there were less people awake and on line on campus. Even then, the lag was pretty bad so we ended up playin 1v1 a lot. We usually played on Snow Mountain and me being very pessimistic about being able to play too much, I never bought any of the better guns. My roommate on the other hand, tricked out his character with guns and mines. After maybe 5 mins, the map would just be filled with mines and walking around was just impossible so what I did was after killing him and grabbing his scoped rifle, I sat on the top of the hill on the southern part of the map and would just shoot the mines near him when he spawned. Endless rage on his part which led to a lot less use of mines from that point on.
