Blair_D Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 Hey guys Recently, I've taken alot of heat for using the pull/backstab and sweep combo... Now, just a week and a half ago, I got my ass kicked by this move and I couldnt even begin to use it myself... Did I cry about it? No. Here's what I did... I LEARNED to use it... and I LEARNED to COUNTER it. Sure... it may come easier for some than for others... but that's what players should do... Anyways, whenever I see a player crying and moaning about being killed by me by that move... this is what I do. I single that player out... and I kill him/her repeadedly again and again. I dont argue with them... I dont insult them back... like I see some other players do. I just single them out and hunt them down until they leave the server. I think that's the most effective way to handle cryers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Real Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 Hehe. For me, I just block them out when I play. When I'm playing, every manuever I do is my concern, not whiners, nor babies. That comes with the game. Hell, it comes with EVERY Multi-Player game. Someone always has something to say about you, just gota deal with their oppinion one way or the other I guess.

Tarus Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 I havn't seen anyone complain about it...probably because of the servers I play on. However if i did see them I would just continue to backstab them to irritate em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rad Blackrose Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 It's not the backstab/backsweep moves that irritate me, it is when it is spammed to the point that people assfight to pull it off. Then people found that the kick could counter it. Now you see kick being spammed then being combo'd with backstab. I have already learned my counter to kick, but that is my secret.

K_Kinnison Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 i have no prob with it EXCEPT I only have a prob with it, every time i run inot the same person he does it.... EVERY TIME and all of his kills are because of knockdown backstab. Heck, you could probly make a script for it. That is how stupid it is. Even on a Jedi Merc sever the person does it. Why play merc if that is going to keep on happening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerys Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 If you see someone spamming it, hunt them down and kill them. Again and again. Go Dark Force and drain them so they can't pull. Spam lightning at them. Pull/Kick them down then backstab them. Keep repeating until they leave. Much fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leelink Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 one big problem with backstab is that when someone ass fights you, you cannot counter it. You have to move out of the way. you cant push or pull them down, because the game seems to see a back as a type of absorb pad, niether push or pull will cause the opponent to fall down when he is running backward at you, but if he was running forward at you, you could then just push him to the ground and kill him. ass fighting sucks and this is the reason people do it. theres no effective counter. try to hit the guy and he will stab you, try push or pull and it doesnt effect him. your only option is to run backwards yourself or strafe left or right and hope his butt didnt home in on you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fitzwilliamd Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 I have already learned my counter to kick, but that is my secret. --Rad Blackrose Rad Blackrose: “My strategy is a secret N00Bs 'cause 1m 133t.” I, for one, enjoy sharing information instead of hoarding it. With that in mind, here are a few ideas to counter kick: When they rush you and repeatedly kick, try crouching and overhand swinging simultaneously; they will hop right over you and get slashed for their trouble. Also, try timing a blue lunge as they come in—even if you get knocked back, they will take damage and may think twice before rushing you again. Finally, a yellow special move is devastating when someone tries to kick you. If all goes well they will die or take damage; worst case, they end up pushing you back which leaves you open for throw--so careful Good luck!

Zonk7 Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 hmm backstab is fine, but its really annoying seeing ppl walk backwards constantly, not trying to have fun, just wanting to come first.....its not how JK2 should be played............and ill be really happy when (or if) a patch comes out that weakens it (or if sum1 finds a move that makes backstab crap ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zerowingzero Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 Here's what i do: join a jedi vs merc server, be a merc, and blast the backstabers from a distance while they call you cheap for useing a gun. (??? this actually happined) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyplaya73 Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 Yep. The best way to shut up whinners and people who call you all kinds of names is the single them out and beat the living **** out of em! And its loads of fun. I also love it when someone can't beat me and they call me a fag then immediately exit the server. The only thing that sux is when eveyone leaves cause there a bunch of babies and can't take gettin their asses handed to em on a silver platter. Then there no one to kill anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrion Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 I dont mind if a guy uses 5 times a match or something, but when they use it everytime, it's gets annoying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tekken Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 I like throwing at their back, hopping to the side of 'em, letting 'em pass, then drop a dfa on 'em and backflip out of danger nailing 'em with another throw. DFA is NOT dead, btw, it requires you to 'lead' your target. I see someone coming in ass-first towards me, I think 'Booty-Call'!! Then I snatch da boo-tay! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[SJPL]Avery Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 I admit that people who just constantly backstabs/backsweeps all the time annoys me, but I don't really complain about it. I just deal with it and play my game. What really irks me is when these same people complain that I'm being a lightning whore (which I am at times), or that I'm being a gun whore. If they didn't like the guns I don't know why they don't play on a saber only server. Anyways, I just bitch back about their backstabbing ways, and that usually shuts them up. Complainning don't get much done cept give some fool the chance to come up and kill me while I'm typing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
venom420 Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 If you come into my server and bitch you will be kicked. If you come back you will be banned. For every move in jk2 their's a way to block it. So just because you're getting owned don't cry to every one about it. I'm going to help all you n00bs out who don't know how to block the pull backstab combo. Use absorb and if they get you down then use protect. When they run up on you with their backs turnd just double jump and when their layed out back sweap them. I've a few more tactics but I see no reason why to share them all. As for lighting whores.. one word "absorb". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ars]Vampyre Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 my server at 1.02 and no one complains. Funny that. Anyway, if I see someone doing asstastic attacks on my server, I IP ban them. You whine about people whining, I just kick you off for being an *******. Its my server, while you're on it you play the way *I* want you to or you go somewhere else.

Balance Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 Personally, I don't mind getting b-stabbed and I don't mind b-stabbing others, however I have 'Ok, that's it, the next person I see walking backwards at me gets a saber where the sun don't shine' bound to my 'n' key .... I never really whine, however I will comment when some one keeps doing the same thing over and over and over again.... A true Jedi does not have to repeat himself over and over again.

K_Kinnison Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 when they walk backwards, and its the only way they get kills I think people havea right to complain and tell them they are being real cheap. Jsut leave the server if you dont like it, either the Admin wont care, or he might have to change some of the settings so people come back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Derski Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 I play for about 3 or 4 hours a night after work to relax and maybe ive been fortunate but Ive yet to see anyone doing that jag move, I dont see how that could be effective for the person doing it? how can you protect yourself from what you cant see? The regular pull sweep spammers bother me but I take my lumps and adapt, but if I see anyone running around backwards specifically to do a backstab I will make it a point to roll that NOOB untill he quits the server.

fitzwilliamd Posted June 5, 2002 Share Posted June 5, 2002 Anyway, if I see someone doing asstastic attacks on my server, I IP ban them. --[Ars]Vampyre This is not effective if the individual has dynamic addresses assigned by their ISP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leXX Posted June 5, 2002 Share Posted June 5, 2002 Pull and sweep Pull and sweep Geez the move is really cheap If you wanna make a quick kill and if you lack any skill Pull and sweep Pull and sweep Yawn, I think I'll go to sleep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fink_dix Posted June 5, 2002 Share Posted June 5, 2002 Hey all.. my first post here, I'm sorta newb at the game but I'm managing alright so far, however I did meet a guy who spammed this move all night, and I wasn't complaining... he asked me if I wanted to learn the backstab move, and I said no I already know it, I just don't like to overuse it. This seemed to stop him doing it so much, until I did it on him ha ha.... Anyway, I agree with y'all.... there's always another way to counter someone's moves, even if they spam, then you can spam another move as well.... like just use lightning on the ****ers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
