[01:04:51] <[WarC]Min3mat> i'll admit i'm the first to jump run and skuttle away from half decent competition, i just suck too much and dont enjoy it
[01:04:57] <[WarC]Min3mat> amateur level is actually fun IMO
[01:05:31] <[Gen]Imperium> eh i have no great desire to play randy <_<
[01:06:34] <[Gen]Imperium> lol @ orakio
[01:07:31] <TreeForm[FD]> to give him higher score?
[01:07:56] <n1_RICK> lol
[01:08:00] <n1_RICK> how are you people going to get better?
[01:08:03] <n1_RICK> by avoiding the best?
[01:08:11] <n1_RICK> or getting owned and learning?
[01:08:19] <TreeForm[FD]> i will watch replays
[01:08:23] <n1_RICK> it doesnt do it
[01:08:24] <TreeForm[FD]> and his games
[01:08:26] <n1_RICK> you need to play
[01:08:32] <[WarC]Min3mat> who siad i wanted to be the best
[01:08:36] <TreeForm[FD]> i do play
[01:08:42] <[WarC]Min3mat> i KNOW how to be the best coz i used to really really try
[01:08:47] <n1_RICK> i didn't say the best
[01:08:49] <n1_RICK> i said improve
[01:09:12] <[WarC]Min3mat> you play clanmates, and other clans as well as top players obsess over replays and work to improve your APM and general understanding of mods and maps
[01:09:26] <[WarC]Min3mat> but i just cba atm, i mean some of AAs imbalances just @>.<@
[01:09:28] <n1_RICK> its alot simpler than that
[01:09:31] <n1_RICK> one word
[01:09:31] <n1_RICK> play
[01:09:34] <[WarC]Min3mat> nope
[01:09:35] <n1_RICK> over and over
[01:09:37] <n1_RICK> believe me
[01:09:38] <[WarC]Min3mat> not to be the best
[01:09:38] <n1_RICK> i tis
[01:09:42] <n1_RICK> lol ok buddy
[01:09:46] <[WarC]Min3mat> :)
[01:09:46] <n1_RICK> any game is like that
[01:09:55] <[WarC]Min3mat> play -> replay -> improve
[01:10:00] <n1_RICK> watching demos, if you dont know what the little details are
[01:10:04] <n1_RICK> how is that going to help you
[01:10:12] <[WarC]Min3mat> just playing and not thinking about how you did and what you could do more..it really slows you down
[01:10:12] <n1_RICK> its the little things that make you the best an dyou learn them
[01:10:13] <n1_RICK> by playing
[01:10:22] <n1_RICK> replays are overrated
[01:10:25] <[WarC]Min3mat> lol
[01:10:32] <[WarC]Min3mat> so how good are you rick?
[01:10:36] <[Gen]Imperium> eh, i'd say speccing and replays help
[01:10:36] <n1_RICK> i play a OTA
[01:10:39] <n1_RICK> and i'm very good
[01:10:41] <n1_RICK> same concept
[01:10:42] <[WarC]Min3mat> did you use to be one of the top 5 players playing?
[01:10:48] <n1_RICK> yes
[01:10:50] <n1_RICK> by far
[01:10:51] <[WarC]Min3mat> and does OTA have a good replays function and well hosted sites/
[01:10:56] <n1_RICK> yep
[01:11:01] <[Gen]Imperium> DO BATTLE
[01:11:01] <[WarC]Min3mat> and is OTA balanced in any way shape or form>
[01:11:06] <n1_RICK> yep
[01:11:07] <[WarC]Min3mat> the answer to both the above is a no
[01:11:11] <PRO_Muffy> yes
[01:11:12] <[WarC]Min3mat> TADRS...shoot me now
[01:11:13] <PRO_Muffy> it is
[01:11:13] <n1_RICK> you clearly have no idea
[01:11:16] <n1_RICK> min3mat
[01:11:19] <PRO_Muffy> min
[01:11:19] <[WarC]Min3mat> and balance...its worse than AA
[01:11:19] <n1_RICK> you old bitter man
[01:11:21] <n1_RICK> do NOT talk about things
[01:11:22] <PRO_Muffy> if Aa is balanced
[01:11:22] <n1_RICK> you dont know of
[01:11:24] <n1_RICK> believe me
[01:11:25] <n1_RICK> you are wrong
[01:11:27] <n1_RICK> on ALL counts
[01:11:28] <PRO_Muffy> tell me.. how many releases have their been?
[01:11:29] <PRO_Muffy> :P
[01:11:32] <[WarC]Min3mat> heh
[01:11:38] <PRO_Muffy> and in each one caydr says its mroe and more balanced
[01:11:44] <TreeForm[FD]> lol
[01:11:49] <PRO_Muffy> he was remaking AA when there was no spring
[01:11:49] <n1_RICK> its funny min
[01:11:51] <PRO_Muffy> years ago
[01:11:54] <n1_RICK> a OTA semi expert
[01:11:54] <[Gen]Imperium> i miss the days of 1.44 when flashes owned >_<
[01:11:54] <PRO_Muffy> none of the units are his
[01:11:57] <n1_RICK> joins AA
[01:11:59] <n1_RICK> and one month later
[01:12:01] <PRO_Muffy> he nicked from frmo modders about 5 years ago
[01:12:01] <n1_RICK> hes unbeatable
[01:12:06] <[WarC]Min3mat> muffy
[01:12:06] <n1_RICK> its the concepts
[01:12:07] <n1_RICK> he learned in TA
[01:12:09] <n1_RICK> by PLAYING
[01:12:10] <n1_RICK> that did that
[01:12:11] <[WarC]Min3mat> he knows that
[01:12:12] <n1_RICK> not demos
[01:12:14] <[WarC]Min3mat> he remodeled
[01:12:16] <[WarC]Min3mat> he rescripted
[01:12:21] <[WarC]Min3mat> he retextured
[01:12:24] <[WarC]Min3mat> and best of all he rebalanced
[01:12:33] <n1_RICK> you are too old to understand
[01:12:33] <PRO_Muffy> but he didnt balance it
[01:12:35] <[tN]DemO> rick
[01:12:38] <[tN]DemO> who are you talking about
[01:12:38] <n1_RICK> i can tell by your responses
[01:12:41] <[WarC]Min3mat> too old to understand ROFL ROFL ROFL
[01:12:41] <n1_RICK> you are stubborn
[01:12:44] <n1_RICK> and poor at gaming
[01:12:44] <[WarC]Min3mat> too OLD
[01:12:46] <[WarC]Min3mat> too OLD
[01:12:47] <[WarC]Min3mat> too OLD
[01:12:50] <[Gen]Imperium> haha
[01:12:50] <n1_RICK> you are like an old dog
[01:12:51] <PRO_Muffy> guys, stop insults :P
[01:12:53] <n1_RICK> UNWILLING
[01:12:54] <[EESF]Avatar> wow AA bitch fest
[01:12:54] <[WarC]Min3mat> oh god you crack me up
[01:12:54] <TreeForm[FD]> trees are old
[01:12:54] <n1_RICK> to listen
[01:12:55] <n1_RICK> to anything
[01:12:57] <n1_RICK> from anyone
[01:12:58] <[WarC]Min3mat> OLD DOG :D
[01:12:59] <[WarC]Min3mat> :D
[01:13:01] <[EESF]Avatar> the problem is AA isnt original
[01:13:02] <[WarC]Min3mat> :D :D :D
[01:13:05] <PRO_Muffy> i loko at TA because it is a cornerstone
[01:13:08] <[EESF]Avatar> its not raw content that came from caydr
[01:13:08] <[tN]DemO> generally springers dont like ota'ers for one reason
[01:13:08] <[WarC]Min3mat> so now SPRING is OLD and TA is NEW
[01:13:09] <n1_RICK> AA is fine , this has nothing to do
[01:13:10] <[tN]DemO> and its always the same
[01:13:11] <n1_RICK> with AA vs OTA
[01:13:12] <[EESF]Avatar> no creativity required
[01:13:14] <n1_RICK> its general concepts
[01:13:15] <PRO_Muffy> i did a gaming degree partly based on what i say in TA
[01:13:17] <[tN]DemO> ota'ers think they own the world
[01:13:18] <[WarC]Min3mat> and OTA is balanced and demo support was good?
[01:13:22] <[WarC]Min3mat> i love you rich
[01:13:26] * [WarC]Min3mat hugs rick
[01:13:26] <PRO_Muffy> mat, listen
[01:13:30] <n1_RICK> min, you are clearly an idiot
[01:13:31] <PRO_Muffy> caydr has set everything toextremes
[01:13:34] <n1_RICK> did you ever play TA?
[01:13:41] <PRO_Muffy> thats why 3 AA units pwn level 1 air
[01:13:43] <[WarC]Min3mat> AA is RPS balance, yes
[01:13:47] <PRO_Muffy> and why level 1 air pwns anything until u get it
[01:13:47] <[WarC]Min3mat> ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL RICK
[01:13:50] <[EESF]Avatar> the thign is I dotn see any OTA games here
[01:13:52] <[WarC]Min3mat> you crack me up
[01:13:52] <[EESF]Avatar> RPS?
[01:13:54] <PRO_Muffy> avatar
[01:13:56] <PRO_Muffy> ykno what?
[01:13:58] <[WarC]Min3mat> rock paper scissors
[01:14:05] <[WarC]Min3mat> didnt play OTA...OLD dog
[01:14:05] <[EESF]Avatar> eek
[01:14:06] <n1_RICK> its hard to have conversations with idiots around here muffy
[01:14:08] <[WarC]Min3mat> im 18
[01:14:10] <PRO_Muffy> thats cause everyone says "u dont need it. <insert mod here> is better than OTA"
[01:14:12] <PRO_Muffy> but u know what?
[01:14:13] <n1_RICK> alot of idiots
[01:14:13] <[WarC]Min3mat> _18_
[01:14:16] <PRO_Muffy> there isnt an OTA mod
[01:14:22] <[WarC]Min3mat> and i played OTA as a teenager
[01:14:22] <n1_RICK> then you are just stupid
[01:14:23] <PRO_Muffy> so how cna they compare?
[01:14:24] <PRO_Muffy> :P
[01:14:26] <n1_RICK> its that simple
[01:14:29] <[WarC]Min3mat> i went to all the stupid 3rd party sites
[01:14:33] <[WarC]Min3mat> i bashed banzai Ais
[01:14:40] <n1_RICK> HHHAHAHAHAHHAAH
[01:14:42] <n1_RICK> AHAAAAAAAAAAHAHAH
[01:14:43] <PRO_Muffy> lol
[01:14:44] <[WarC]Min3mat> no SHIT i played OTA, a gamer who hasnt hasnt lived
[01:14:49] <[EESF]Avatar> bet you cant beat 2 allied KAI's in EE?
[01:14:54] <[WarC]Min3mat> no i cant
[01:14:56] <[WarC]Min3mat> i dont play EE
[01:14:58] <n1_RICK> you dont know the game min
[01:14:59] <[WarC]Min3mat> and i suck at AA of late
[01:15:03] <[WarC]Min3mat> i know that game...

[01:15:06] <PRO_Muffy> spamming bbs lik no tomorrow
[01:15:08] <[Gen]Imperium> @_@
[01:15:10] <PRO_Muffy> 50 plants jsut to stay alive
[01:15:13] <PRO_Muffy> unles you rushed it
[01:15:23] <[tN]DemO> 50 plants is an average metalheck game anyway:p
[01:15:26] <n1_RICK> and thats BESIDE the point..the point is you can only learn so much from REPLAYS at ANY game, thats a fact
[01:15:28] <[EESF]Avatar> for all of AA's popularity fo late thats nothing to say about the actual mod
[01:15:29] <[WarC]Min3mat> :D :D :D
[01:15:34] <[WarC]Min3mat> rick you stupid...god
[01:15:39] <[WarC]Min3mat> i mean...
[01:15:41] <[WarC]Min3mat> just...
[01:15:42] <n1_RICK> you know why thats a fact
[01:15:44] <[EESF]Avatar> its popular because the people who play ti had nothign else to play at the time
[01:15:46] <n1_RICK> how long have all you SPRING guys
[01:15:47] <PRO_Muffy> mat, you're forgettnig these guys ahve years of OTA experience
[01:15:48] <n1_RICK> been watching replays
[01:15:49] <[EESF]Avatar> and it survives because of that
[01:15:49] <PRO_Muffy> more than me
[01:15:51] <n1_RICK> and look at someone like andy
[01:15:52] <n1_RICK> walks in
[01:15:54] <n1_RICK> rapes ALL OF YOU
[01:15:57] <n1_RICK> it has nothing to do
[01:15:58] <n1_RICK> with replays
[01:15:59] <PRO_Muffy> rick wrote TADRs
[01:16:03] <n1_RICK> NOTHING
[01:16:04] <PRO_Muffy> the site which hosts all the OTA replays
[01:16:05] <[EESF]Avatar> so people assume its better than sliced bread
[01:16:10] <[WarC]Min3mat> yeah it had something to do with IRL...
[01:16:12] <PRO_Muffy> he is one of the founders of the replay idea within TA
[01:16:15] <PRO_Muffy> :P
[01:16:19] <[WarC]Min3mat> this thing called a job (lame!)

[01:17:55] <[tN]DemO> that reason being
[01:18:02] <[WarC]Min3mat> i dont have anything against OTAers
[01:18:04] <[tN]DemO> OTA'ers always stomp into spring and ALWAYS tell us they'll own us within 10 games

[01:18:29] <n1_RICK> and realise you turned this into a conversation
[01:18:30] <[tN]DemO> ota'ers are fine, i want more of them to come here
[01:18:32] <PRO_Muffy> rick are you hosting?
[01:18:34] <n1_RICK> that had nothing to do with the point
[01:18:34] <[WarC]Min3mat> sorry for talking

[01:18:39] <PRO_Muffy> or mat
[01:18:44] <[tN]DemO> but when they say they're better than us without even playing a game, it gets annoying:)
[01:18:45] <n1_RICK> i never EVER said anything against AA
[01:18:46] <[WarC]Min3mat> in fact discussing stuff should be outlawed
[01:18:51] <PRO_Muffy> lol...
[01:18:53] <n1_RICK> i said you are stupid for thinking replays are all that you need
[01:18:53] <PRO_Muffy> ok ok...
[01:18:54] <n1_RICK> to get good
[01:18:54] <[WarC]Min3mat> i think that we should all be afk tbh

[01:19:01] <[WarC]Min3mat> i SAID
[01:19:01] <[Gen]Imperium> <_>
[01:19:02] <[tN]DemO> i'm not being specific rick, this is a stereotype i'm talking about
[01:19:07] <[WarC]Min3mat> IF YOU DONT USE REPLAYS
[01:19:09] <[WarC]Min3mat> YOU LEARN SLOWER
[01:19:12] <[WarC]Min3mat> NOT YOU DONT LEARN
[01:19:12] <n1_RICK> demo, i never said that

[01:19:30] <[WarC]Min3mat> just it SLOWS YOU DOWN if you DONT use REPLAYS
[01:19:32] <n1_RICK> to get to a GOOD skill level
[01:19:33] <n1_RICK> its not enough
[01:19:37] <[WarC]Min3mat> and OTAs replay interface was SHIT
[01:19:43] <[WarC]Min3mat> you had to CHEAT to use replays...
[01:19:51] <TreeForm[FD]> cheater!

Arguing with people over the internet is just pointless. Both sides are convinced they are right, and there is nothing you can do to change that. All your going to do is make the other people hate you more.

But it is funny to watch :P

DAMNIT!!!

THERE IS AN OTA MOD!!!!!!

Bota!!!!!

The ranges are increased and the Freedom Fighters have Machine Guns added to them, but the gameplay is still the same. And because of the bigger ranges, its a lot faster.

I played BOTA the other day. It is horribly fun I must say, and feels damn near identical in many ways to ota.

My only gripe was vehicle slopes (26 for light, 25 for heavy would be really nice), some building slopes (all set to 20 is quite nice), and vehicle/kbot speeds (just a tad faster would be really neat).

All in all I rate it at A-, very damn good ota mod.

Rick is wrong. I'll put up any boxer who has gone through a proper training routine against any boxer who just fights with people constantly. The boxer with the training routine will always win. If you want to be the best you have to train, not just crunch hourage. You will take WAY longer to intellectualize the game if you just play and don't study it. The best player is the best player because their reflexes are honed, they know exactly what happens in every situation, and they know what their opponent knows so they can counter him. Ability to play a game at the high level breaks down into 3 areas: Mastery of the interface, mastery of the numbers, and mastery of the mind game. If your game plan for improving is "Play the game alot" you only really improve your mastery of the interface, and even then you will likely be worse at that then someone who has improved all three area's at once through proper training because you're relying on accidentally discovering the optimums rather then knowing the optimums because you have crunched the numbers and developed the theory.

If you want to be the best at the game, you study replays, analyze in depth what was done right, what was done wrong, analyze where you are spending your time and what you are letting slip, then take the knowledge gained and replay and get new replays. Also test out units, see which units can shoot over DT and which can not, which units can crush which corpses and which can not, which units can get through which bottlenecks and how easily, if you know the game theoretically you don't have to make the mistakes the first time to learn from them. Finally study your opponents and learn what makes them tick. Know what an opponent is most likely to do just for statistical convenience, figure out a counter. Know your opponents strengths and weaknesses, know the counter to every counter and the counter to every counter counter in and out and know exactly what if you do you are weak to, and how you can minimalize the risk.

Ask any great chess player how they learned to play the game, weather it was more beneficial to them to talk with other players about the strategy of the game and read over the theory books, or weather it was more beneficial to them to just play the game over and over and over, they have all done both. While it's objective, you need to play to win, that doesn't mean you will win if all you ever to is play alot. Being the best is alot of boring work as well as the fun of playing.
