Introduce Yourself!

(Kitsunami) #1

I am astounded that there is no pinned introduction thread for everybody here! And so:

Introduce yourself!

Hello, I am Kit. I am a long-time fps gamer, formerly played in the CS 1.6 enemy down leagues, and i generally float about between all sorts of games. Lately its been RTS and Racing but Dirty Bomb is a fresh experience that is really looking to be something that will be played long-term. Ive also dabbled in press, worked as a game journalist and worked in game design/writing too :smile:

I look forwards to meeting more of the community, having met a few already in-game!

(MarSouls) #2

Hello Kit, nice to have a CS vet here. I am Mar, i mostly play Dota2 but i came from a Quake/UT and Wolfenstein:enemy territory (fps all around until dota was released)
Good thing youā€™re already playing the game, iā€™m still waiting the key. See you in game soon :smiley:

(PyroTaze) #3

hey guys, ive just played combat arms since 2010, and got to know nexon real well, then found out about this game, cant wait for a key

(Santiak) #4

Heyho :slight_smile:

Santiak here - obviously. Used to play Tribes 2 (base) competitively back on theladder.org, mostly as a Capper or Light Offense, but that was eons ago now - and Iā€™m rapidly getting nostalgic, so moving on.

Since then, Iā€™ve mainly drifted from game to game, with spurs of Planetside 1 (and 2), EVE Online, and in more recent times, Warframe and The Secret World, as well as various ARGs.
I, of course, also had a bout with Tribes: Vengeance (shudders) and Tribes: Ascend (shrugs), but felt that they lacked the focus on co-operation that I so enjoyed.

Looking forward to a fast paced PvP oriented FPS again - a void Planetside only managed to fill by virtue of its scale - but Iā€™ve already learnt that Iā€™m extraordinarily rusty, but enjoying myself none the less - and sticking to focusing on objectives till I find my sea-legs again, so to speak. ^^

(DragonDope) #7

Hey guys! Iā€™m DragonDope, and Iā€™ve been beta/alpha testing some f2p games for a while, and have a year or two in the fps area. Iā€™ve played games like SF2, FEAR Online, Hawken, Warface, Warframe, Tribes Ascend, and Contract Wars, just to name a few off the dome. Since I absolutely abhorred that virus known as ā€œTF2ā€, Iā€™ve kinda wanted something enjoyable that fits the class combat niche. BF does a pretty good job, but I canā€™t run that on my laptop. GRP does a good job too, but 3 classes is a tad small (although amazing fun). DB is an awesome game so far, and after the first beta phase, itā€™s completely blown all my expectations. Seriously, amazing game ya got here.

Hoping to see all pros the and noobs (like myself) fraggin on the battlefield!

(melancholyAbility) #8

Been here for a while already, so some of you might already recognize me. (IGN Cervello BTW, the forum name keeps changing back to this random thing and Iā€™ll quit bothering MissMurder with it till the end of this phase)

Back to the point; Only have been a PC gamer for 1.5 years, before that I used to be a 14 yo console COD kiddy (Iā€™m a very grown up and mature 16 year old now).
/s

I started off playing Planetside 2, and to this day I still play it. And, after having grown from a 0.1 KD player to a 4.0 KD player in that game, with good accuracy stats, I feel like Iā€™m somewhat decent at FPSā€™s now.
I also play that game competitively in a wide range of formats (mostly 12v12, 24v24, 144v144+), and that to this day is a good amount of fun.

Dirty Bomb is awesome to me though, and I think it has the potential to have a pretty negative effect on my grades the upcoming year, which is good ^^

Iā€™ll see / farm /get farmed by yah on the Battlefield!

(Wolven) #9

Hi all.

My nick is Wolven and I just received the my beta key. (Thanks!) Iā€™ve only managed to play a few matches yesterday, but I really liked what Iā€™ve seen in Dirty Bomb so far. Looking forwards to March 6. Iā€™ve had the DB itch all day, just to find the email about the downtimeā€¦ Ouch! =/

Iā€™m an old FPS gamer, (and an even older gamer. C=64) coming from games like Doom and Quake. A lot of Quake 3 (active 1999-2006) and now recently Quake Live. Iā€™ve also played and loved Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory quite a lot, and some Enemy Territory: Quake Wars.

Iā€™ve had my eye on Dirty Bomb for quite some time now and canā€™t wait to get back in the game come March.

Cheers! =)

(preciousSoda) #10

I just like to play any and all games. Was pretty excited that I got my beta key to test this game out and I gotta say it is pretty fun.

(intenseRuby) #11

Greetings from intenseRuby (soon to be renamed, hopefully). Iā€™m not really one for introductions since, in regards to Dirty Bomb, I prefer guns to words as a means of communication. Played a few competitive FPSes here and there ā€“ most recently CS:GO. Currently a college student. Likes spicy food. Anyway enough of that. Iā€™ll be greeting each of you more personally (with a bullet to the head, of course) once beta is back up.

(goldBracket) #12

Nice topic :slight_smile:

I making maps for ET and play ET and I did fall over to stalking DB.
Iā€™m no good fps player but fps games and minecraft is my interests.
I will pop up as an easy frag on the battlefield :slight_smile: -hold your fire!

(Chirs) #13

Similar to Wolven (except I had an Amstrad CPC 464 as a kid). Played quite a lot of Q3A, but have always had a preference for team FPS, which is why Iā€™ve loved Splash Damageā€™s objective-based games.

Played for Clan Grievous Angels (Dillinger, Ninemil et al for those that remember some old-schoolers) on their ET team as 4$ure. We managed to win 2nd Division in the Savage Leagues (epic game on Radar) and I think we ā€˜survivedā€™ in 1st Div. I recall we used to train with EQ (Earth Quakers?).

Enjoying the Dirty Bomb (only played a few evenings) so far, but have been slow to get to grips with the maps and classes. I tend to play medic or support. Iā€™ve never been a great solo player, but Iā€™m basically the guy you want covering you. I will always try my best to be there (caveat: as long as it makes sense for the team - suicidal medics tend to get everyone killed).

Cheers all!

(sinKrin) #14

Hi folks, just spotted this post. Iā€™m sinKrin (aka TraX) and Iā€™ve been causally playing online FPS games since 97 when I discovered the lovely brown masterpiece that was Quake. First played an SD game when ET:QW was released and it became one of my all time favourite games.

Only played half a dozen matches on the recent DB beta session but had great fun. I look forward to seeing how the game develops :slight_smile:

(dreamyDay) #15

[left]'Allo! (Donā€™t really know why I say that instead of hello, but whatever.) Iā€™ve had my eye on this game since i donā€™t even know when, and just got a beta key. Iā€™m looking forward to playing it!
ā€¦Not a whole lot else to say, so Iā€™m gonna shut up until I actually have something to say.[/left]

(CC_FANG) #18

I agree with comsopolitanSponge, some of the names generated by the forum are quite amusing! :stuck_out_tongue:
Iā€™m CC_FANG, some of you may know me from Combat Arms, where I am pretty active in the community. Long-time female FPS gamer, looking forward to getting to know this game (and all of you!) better as I have more of a chance to play! I started out in FPS with Wolf-3D and have tried many games over the years, ET, various COD titles, MOHAA, BF series and many more. Say hi if you see me in game :slight_smile:
