So there I was... It was a
rough day amongst the mundanes. The non-gamers. Boy, do they get tiresome.
All they do with their computers is look at new Utility software. It was time
to see what kind of game I could scrounge up online.
I wandered over to an UNAMED Battlefield with 12/32 players. Decent
ratio and decent 2-300 ping. It was a madhouse! Exactly the kind of game that
the WeaselBoy does NOT like. Lots of running and jumping with virtually no
weapons. All the L00ZERZ would respawn, and start shooting their blasters
instead of trying to better themselves. After a couple of respawns, I got the
feel of the level and what the L00ZERZ were doing. I quickly got out of the
respawn/die cycle taking only minimal damage. Grabbed some health, armor and a
railgun and got down to working these idiots. After a judicious rocket jump
(stupidly leaving me with 43% life) I got to a decent God spot and settled in.
After about 5 minutes, I was #1 in the standings with 15 kills. I leaped from
my perch to get more railgun ammo. Along the way, I stopped in at the
RocketLauncher shop and had the thing accurized. Sitting there for a second or
two, I dumped all but 5 rounds into a blaster-melee, scoring another 8 kills in
only a couple minutes. I then waded back into the fray and came up with a brand
new Weasel Tactic.
The first inkling of the idea was during OPS-Training at LosCon. I
had perched myself on a door frame and was able to shoot directly down into
Dr.Chud's head with a railgun. If I only had a screenshot... So the latest
tactic is now to see someone who is crouching and shooting. Time a jump so that
you land on his sholders Then just aim down into his hairpiece and let fly with
a railgun slug. Picture the WeaselBoy leaping onto an enemy's shoulders,
wrapping legs around the neck and wrestling a huge-barreled gun on top of the
guy's skull...
I now have 3 nicely preserved skulls that I use as candle holders,
thanks to the neat and streamlined hole the railgun makes.
