I'm losing it

[icemaniac_02 0]

hey all, i  probably play OPF to much. just a few reasons,         when a train rolls by my house i think its a tank. (but then sometimes it is a tank, being by a Military base) but most of the time its a train. when i hear it my brain says *go prone, find cover*,        and when ever i hear a pop behind me i freak out whirl around and attempt to take cover. also my dreams are out of wack. anyone else losing it?

Yup OFP has those effects on people, it gets really scary when you have dreams about Denoir

Hehe... I woke up early one morning, opened up my eyes and thought I was in game.

I was amazed that it lagged so little..

I took a few seconds before my brain woke up

Ever estimated the angle to throw a handgrenade according to OFP in real life ? It once happened to me, as I am a lousy nade thrower with 40m´s max aimed but in OFP and full running throw I get estimated 60m´s.

I live at woods and whenever deer stepped out to have a peek I estimated the distance and brought the LAW visor virtually to me eyes

Also a BIG sideeffect is the "-" key. In almost every conversation on ICQ I use it by error cause it has been automatized by my brain for OFP ingame chat

Well it beats the CS guys that are going around saying stuff like "leet", "lol" or "owned" IRL

Anyone who says "lol" in real life instead of actually laughing needs to STOP using computers.

[IceFire 0]

Which brings me to another question.

How many of you actually laugh in real life when you type in "LOL" in computers. I think "LOL" means "laugh out loud".

So I only type it in if the thing that is funny actually made me laugh.

Impossible, you can never play OFP too much.

This kinda reminds me of one time when I was playing Black Thorn I believe. I was standing right next to a wall in the game. My ear itched IRL, and I instinctively moved my head to scratch my ear on the virtual wall.

I once watched a friend playing Descent. Some of you may remember it. It is a 3D space shooter in space stations and mines. My freind ducked IRL whenever a missile came at him and moved not only his head but his complete body The only part of his body being fixed on the monitor was his head. Everything else was getting out of the line of fire. It was very funny to watch but than I realized that I did the same and had not noticed it till then.

I have to add that he was not able to play Descent very long. With all that upside down and 360 turns he got a bad stomach pretty soon.

Me playing OFP with 3D glasses would be worth recording with an external cam. I think I look pretty stupid while evading shilka fire in a littlebird

I only type LOL if i laugh in real life. There are of course different degrees.

heh <--- Real Life Translation: amusing, but more of a small sarcastic laugh.

hehehe <--- Real Life Translation: a little funny but still not laughing out loud worthy.

hahaha <--- Real Life Translation: Funny stuff, actually made me laugh out loud.

LOL! <--- Real Life Translation: Hilarity ensues!

LMAO! <--- Real Life Translation: Good lord, thats some funny stuff buddy!

LMFAO! <--- Real Life Translation: AAAAHAHAHAHAHA!

ROFL! <--- Real Life Translation: Someone gimme a glass of water i can't breathe!

ROFLMAO! <--- Real Life Translation: Fuck the water! Gimme an oxygen tank!

ROFLMMFAO! <--- Real Life Translation: Christ almighty i can't stop laughing! Call an ambulance!

Sorry, I have a litte extra time on my hands.

And for the record, me and a friend actually started saying "lol" in real life to each other, and niether of use ever played CS. In fact it was just something we did together to make everyone around us think "wtf did they say?".

Descent was a cool game and there was a clone of it called forsaken where u could spin all over the place wheeeee..
