Heh.. 1on1s are... more or less a 90% chance to score, even vs. you Gnomeh :P

Maybe on a pub you can stop 1on1s... but... against decent shooters... hell even against ME I doubt you'd stop too many of them :P


I like this version but I've noticed a few odd things happening with sounds.

The chargeup sound doesn't seem to be 3d anymore, it always comes from the 'front', even if the person is charging behind you (could just be me tho).

Sometimes a second or two after I shoot the ball, I'll hear the pass... target sound. It's just weird and makes me think someone caught the ball heh. But again it could just be me.

Astro, you think he's some lucky keep who saves the ball? When we had 10 V3 a long time ago online, we went 5v5--original 5 versus new 5. He made the craziest saves that I have not seen done by other keeps. When you consider him going up against our best 2 strikers (Xelent and Bodom), not alot of goalies can keep them off the scoreboard for long time. Why does V3 win? We built upon great offense around our 2 offensive stars, then the rest is behind to close up and mistakes that happens to occur if they give up the ball.

Playing SoP recently this week, we had Xelent, Bodom, Sin, Gnomeh and I playing--as you can see 20:0

But the real thing is, SoP had barely any shots, they had no offense. We had alot of possession in that game.

*Note* -- He was unbeatable at times in 1.6 because of the weapon delay. Now, however he is still good, but he still has yet to return to l33t keeper status of 1.6

if that is what he does then he obviously pretty good at it becuase most ppl know how to fake a keeper that watchs your gun(and he still saves thier shots), i think it would be interesting if tv made it so that the keeper couldn't see the gun but maybe that would make it too hard on keepers

Dude I know I've seen them play ;>
but I'm talking about a breakaway/penalty shot type of situation (as was suggested earlier).

In those situations if you know how to shoot meaning:
-Strong shot
-Well aimed
-Don't let keeper pressure you into shooting early ;>
-Don't telegraph where you are going to shoot
-Maybe even banana it for a bit of extra l33t

then you will score 90% of the time, regardless of the keep.

Astro, listen buddy, Gnomeh is godlike. Hell, he stopped so many shots against Euros in your server! If he was near godlike in your server....What is he in NA servers? He's just hard as hell to fool and he watches your every move, even the ones he doesn't stop, he still reacts to them, like vollies of passes, those shots are around .55-.35. And he STILL reacts to them, which shows his skill.

You'll never know when that bastard is gonna jump out on you, he never jumps out on a regular basis but jumps every once in a while against 1 on 1's, that's what makes him hard to get by, let alone Sin playing D.

I've been up against both of them when I was in Pì, I sucked duh, but I never got to fool Sin or gnomeh, which makes both of them I guess unstoppable with no lag or anything getting in their way. Bullet was also 100% right.

Does Gnomeh ever play in public servers? I think I need to watch him play (Cuz I really really suck as keep, except on smallcube (sometimes)) If he's as good as you say he is (not that I doubt you) then I think speccing him might benefit my future keeping ability.

actually.. I'm from NA too :P

In fact I never got to thank anyone from V3 for putting their server up ^__^ ::thanks::

It's like the server I ping best to.




It'd be fun to take practice shots on Gnomeh one day ^__^
I'll bet you tho that Gnomeh makes shooters break uhh.. rule number 3 of scoring:

"-Don't let keeper pressure you into shooting early ;>"

Soooo many shooters are easily tricked.

i beat Gnome a lot... its not like hes god.

i'll say, sure hes a good keep and all but hes SoL if you get to the top of the Pbox on an open shot.

It all depends how hes playing that day too... sometimes i can totally cream Gnome and sometimes he pisses me off and stops every damn shot.

ya surge is right, gnomeh is a type of keep like one day if hes on his game, he will stop every shot and on other days he will look mediocre. But the fact is, he goes against the top shooters on the NA side. I'm trying to change what I said before, but I'm agreeing what Surge said.

By the way, he is probably becoming a keeper instructor for the academy idea. I will try to get others to join from such clans as NS, V3, Rush, etc.

We want to promote Deathball, and I think its the best idea at the moment.
