In Response To: Re: Narc's "Halo 3 Partnership" article (Narcogen)


: I don't believe the original article mentioned any specific range of levels,
: or indeed even advanced the idea that the goal of applying this technique
: was to increase one's level. I saw it more as an intellectual question of
: whether or not the wingman concept could be extended to infantry, and what
: the results might be (positive or otherwise).

: If some choose to say that since the author isn't a 50 and one is usually
: playing against 50s and there is no particular interest in something that
: doesn't improve one's results against other 50s, that's fine-- this
: article is clearly not written with those goals in mind, I'd say.

: What I objected to was the elitism of the original comment, which amounted to
: "level 13-- that explains a few things" which breaks down to
: "this article is stupid, and of course it's stupid because the player
: who wrote it isn't any good at Halo".

: Some or all of those things might even individually be true, it doesn't make
: the original statement any less elitist and obnoxious, if you ask me.

: Perfectly logical-- although it would seem to support the original article's
: assertion that communication is useful. (Not something I asserted as I
: didn't write it and my voice comm quality is crap anyway-- in big team
: games it's garbled).

I wouldn't go so far to say that I'm NO good at Halo, but I'm not really a studious player. I would not go so far as to describe myself as a gamer. HP, I don't know what your gamertag is and therefore haven't looked at your stats, but I would assume that you're better than me. I would assume you've seen more Halo 3 and played it with better people than I have. Anyone who wants to can use my ideas as guidelines for their own if they want to. Anyone who wants to can say I'm worthless and therefore not listen. If you consider yourself among the former, I have no objection. And to all who read this, I welcome critisism. I really do. It will shape and improve my idea.

Narcogen, you refered to HP's comment as "elitist and obnoxious." I think mostly what he's referring to is not so much my lack of skill as my lack of experience. He's probably seen, come up with, and used strategies that I've never even considered necessary or, to tell the truth, considered at all, what with my small amount of H3 matchmaking gametime and slowly rising skill and experience.

By the way, I really like rampancy.net. It's a well made site.
