Simple. When I first discovered Delta Force 1, I noticed those nice little messages in the upper right screen corner that said who killed who, such as "KRUSTY CLOWN KILLED BOZO". Anyway, I gave it some thought and decided that it might annoy a few machos out there if they got their name in lights as being killed by The Avon Lady, as in "THE HULK WAS SLIT OPEN BY THE AVON LADY" (how I miss those knife fights). So I've used it ever since. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amos m 0 Posted January 22, 2002 lol. I wanna get me a sissy name now. I might sound like a macho man by saying that, but I really hate those sorta fullas. I just got a sense of humour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Major Fubar 0 Posted January 22, 2002 I used to use the name "Britney Spears" or "his stupidity" when I played HalfLife deathmatch. "Sinister Killer was fragged by Britney Spears" "Sinister Killer was fragged by his stupidity" I also used to take the skeleton character in Quake3, under the name Ally McBeal. Some folks think I've got a warped sense of humour, and they're right! Â Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Assault (CAN) 1 Posted January 23, 2002 I liked the names "a bullet" or "himself" eg, "BOZO was killed by:a bullet" or "a bullet killed: BOZO" and so on. However, I stuck by the nick: Canadian, I still use the same nick in OFP. I too miss the voxel grass and knife fights and the true sense of being "outside" as others have noted of DF2 but I don't miss the cheats. I HATED autonades and speeders and GPS users. DF2 was great multiplayer. Tyler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Major Fubar 0 Posted January 23, 2002 Delta Force 2? It has it's good points, but I hated how long missions took to load MP, and if you were playing LAN not everyone would enter the mission at the same time, unless you set a ridiculously long wait time for mission start!

Assault (CAN) 1 Posted January 23, 2002 I played on the NovaWorld server. I never had any real problems with it. Tyler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some "sniper only" maps just sucked. All to quickly they would turn into assault fights with sniper rifles, that was pathetic. I also hated it when people banned certain weapons like grenades. Banning the SAW was understandable though. It was really un-realistic and ANNOYING to be sniping 600m away from some trigger holder with a SAW and to be killed by him, all the while he was running!
