before you all trash this thread...don't. I played a few games with a west coast legend. Most of you probably don't know v3n or seen him play, so before you bash these games. A little history lesson. v3n and i go way back like 99ish and we may not of played many games we knew a lot about each other. i can remember a certain dm3 match where i hit hpb hyper 12 straight bullets as he jumped from armor to take control and win in the minutes. But we played 3 dm1 games tonight as friendly players. We also tore up some ra2 earlier. Now i'm posting these demos not cause i want to show my great skills or to disrespect v3n. People like granny / dinsum / naymlis / daelman etc. should actually respect this play but i know some of u won't cause if it wasn't for v3n a lot of ur trick jumping wouldn't have come around for years if ever. He was part of the julious era. He helped pave the way of the speed / trick jumps. As u watch these games you can see xeno all over this but players like v3n remer julious dysnag paved the way for the faster movement/ gameplay. Circle jumps came from this group as well as hand grenade combos, as well as unusal weapon choices. So instead of looking at these games and comparing yourself or todays genereation to them look back in time. These games were played today, but were played with styles (some tweaked) but mostly 99 - 2000 style gameplay and strategy. If you are a new school player i suggest watching these games cause there are some moves in dm1 here that havne't been used in years, why? it was used against an old school style that is obsolete now. you can see how the game is focused on strategy and smart play and trickery rather than aim / movement. I am in better shape than he is, but yet u can still the pro level player that he once was. I had the most fun playing these games this morning than i have had in 4 years of q2 playing. It brought me back to the golden times. So as stated don't bash this thread, GYN take a look, Daelman take look anyone else that is intrested in improving their game should take a look, pay attention more towards my oppenent than me, watch what is attempted and what does and doesn't work. For oldschoolers there is a few funny comments. Well anyways here they are lemme know what u think.
