Katarn07 Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 Any one play this game? I know Dark Warrior does. That's where I got the link. Just curious because it is MP (unfortunately...) and didn't know what to do. I downloaded it, so no manual as to what I'm supposed to do... Here's a link if you wanna get it legally. 300 some megs, so cable modems only I'd think. I think you can order a disk... Click Here!!!!! I finished the SP portion of it, basic training. I must admit I'm not to habdy with the M-16. Only hit 23 targets, which was the minimum for Marksman... Took me about 10 tries... Yeah, so I'd like to know what to do to play the rest of the game. Like what server to hook up with and all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Warrior Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 Nice to see you got it Katarn. Here is a few pointers with M-16. Aim a little bit left of the target when you shoot at targets. Use the sights and listen for your breath. Shoot in between breaths. Ok, now to start your training. After basic training there is infantry training. This is online. However not many people play this since it requires low honour. After that there are other sections I forget the names. The one I play is bridge. There is assault and defence. Each team starts on opposite sides of the bridge. It requires stealth, steady communication, and tactics to cross the bridge on assault. It is great fun. Also, to check your honour rating go to this site http://army.happyempire.com/ It shows the top ten honour scores. Search M.J.L at the bottom to see mine. I haven't played in a while. If you have any more questions go ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katarn07 Posted January 27, 2003 Author Share Posted January 27, 2003 Checking that link out now. Thanks for the tip on the M-16. Can I update my jacket at any time and work my way up to Sharpshooter and Super Marksman at any time, or not? *** To be found by the search feature, must I have actually played a MP game first???

Yes, you must. You start at 10 honour. It will go up if you do not team kill, assume a leadership goal, etc... And yes, you can update to sharpshooter etc at anytime. You must get a certain amount of targets to unlock sniper rifle school. I forget the number sorry:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt-- Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 You can order it from the site for free if you live in the US. I used to play...but I quit when I started to come out on top consistently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weapon X Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 have any of you ever fired a real gun? i have the civilian version of the M-16 and i'll tell you what it's a HELLUVA LOT different than a game, i didn't think there'd be that much of a difference but after my pappy bought a semi-automatic AR-15, and it's fun, but you gotta work hard and practice lots and lots to get good at it, i'm actually pretty good (not to brag) but i'll bet i could qualify to be a sniper in the marines, cuz my friends had the option and i (was) a better shot than them til about 4 months ago when they went into the corps, so, don't get hyped up about getting high ratings in a game, if you can do the real thing then you can come brag about it sorry to offend anyone, but it's the truth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoguePhotonic Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 Most I can get in that M16 range is 37/40...but the drill guy liked that score I have had the game since it first came out...back when the servers were ****ed but I don't play the game much anymore....I don't like waiting if you die....maybe die for some ****ed reason and have to wait 8 minutes if the people are slow... I will laugh if they bring back the draft and everyone that plays this game gets called. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you guys want to play, look me up at http://www.traacker.com or http://www.happyempire.com under [RAA]-=Chi3f=-. We will be recruiting soon. 23 hits to pass m16 range 30 hits to qualify as Sharpsooter 36 hits to qualify for sniper training. The retail version is 1.3. You still have to download the updates for it, lol. The one in PCGAMER is 1.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigTeddyPaul Posted January 30, 2003 Share Posted January 30, 2003 I have tried over 100 times (I am dead serious) to get sharpshooter. The best score I can get is 34. 34!!!! I have tried everything. Shoot only once per target. Change to walk instead of running when shooting. Shoot inbetween breaths. I even timed how long it takes to breathe. I do fine on the 2nd half when I am prone. I almost always get 20 out of 20 but I can never do better than 14 on the standing one. PLLLEEAASEE HELP! It wouldn't be so bad if I did not have to do the practice thing and listen to the drill coach each time. The worst part about it is that I played the sniper portion (you can play anything but it does not give you access to it in MP) and I am perfect on it. I have no honor. Big fat 0!?1?! Why? I have only shot 2 people and not enough to kill them. PLUS I usually end up 1st in goals accomplished each time. I have only been playing for about a week but some of the servers are NEVER up. I cannot do the infantry, airborne (MP), or some games on other branches because a server is never up. Why aren't there servers for every game? Let me know a time and place and I will play.

BigTeddyPaul First off, getting 36 or more now is very tough. Don't worry about it. I got 40/40 my first try, but that was during beta testing and version 1.0.1. They've changed it to make it much tougher now. 34 out of 40 is really good, better than half the [RAA] members have been doing. All sniper school does is give you te option to select the m24 and m82 sniper rifles. Even then it's still hard to get it. The good news is that you can take the rifle anytime you see it (fallen commrade). I'd forget about sniper training for now and come back when you're more comfortable with the m16. You have 01 honor? Have you been getting a lot of ROE? To go up in honor do the following... [*]Survive until the end of the round [*]Eliminate the enemy. If you do this at an objective you get more points [*]Low ROE. The more ROE you have, the more likely you'll go down in HONOR [*]Get the objectives. On assault it's the A, B, and C on the compass. [/list=1] There are other ways of getting honor too, like diving on a grenade to save the team. To go from 10 to 11 honor, it takes 500+ points. HONOR is counted at the end of every FULL round (7 games). If you leave, get kicked, or the server crashes you might lose those points. As for the servers, the next patch (1.6.1) will be out soon, so they're installing it on the Homelan and SCI servers first. Soon everything will be back to normal. My favorite maps to play are Pipeline, Insurgent camp, Bridge, and Weapon's Cache (SE). I'll start a thread on when and where you want to play. I usually play on Mondays and Wednesdays.
